Get It Scrapped: Current Culture Meets Projects Life

As Memory Keepers, we want to include anything and everything we can to give a snapshot of our world right now. Round-ups are fabulous ways to create a quick summary of news and events. With so much going on, it's important to include only those things that really strike a cord with you and your family.

Video Games are important to my family. We all play them together and are always on the lookout for the latest news about upcoming games. It made sense for me to document important video game news for 2013.

I chose to create a 12x12 layout. I used Project Life cards to help create the layout, but I could have easily documented this with pocket pages. Regardless of the size of the layout, I will be adding it to my Project life spreads.

Round-ups are excellent additions to Project Life. You can keep a running list of books you are reading, TV shows you are watching, gas prices...really almost anything current makes for a great round up. Consider keeping a notebook with lists of personal trends and news that interest you. When you are ready, transfer the list to a layout or Project Life card.
