Something like ‘thank you’—a free template for you

August 28, 2007

Something like ‘thank you’—a free template for you

In my blog banner title, I always use the word ‘scrapbooking.’ As most of you know, that is my only real claim to fame, as both my poetry and my singing have failed to gain me notoriety of any kind. And yet, I don’t much talk about scrapbooking here. So I decided to change that for today’s post.

As a way of saying thank you to my blog readers, who generally are kind and don’t add any newly formed openings to my person on a daily basis, I wanted to share a little album and encourage you to make one of your own.

Last spring, I had an assignment for our special issue, Album Shortcuts. And I started two album concepts, one of which showed up in the special issue, and one which sat on my table for months until last week. It’s a simple theme album, designed to document the every day stuff of life. The name of the album project: It’s Always Something. And it looks something like this:

Alwaysalbum

To make this little album, you need a very few items, but…you could make it as elaborate as your inner designer likes.

You need:
1. An album—I used this 6 x 6 album from American Crafts.
2. Some patterned paper—I used this paper pack from BasicGrey.
3. Some cardstock.
4. An inkjet printer to print out the page titles (and a trimmer, of course).
5. Photos, and a pen to journal.

And this PDF below, which contains both the page template with journaling lines and the page title files. It’s pretty straightforward. You simple trim all the elements, after printing them out on your choice of cardstock color. I used white Bazzil paper. All elements have crop marks. You’ll figure it out pretty quickly.

Download SomethingAlbumTemplate.pdf

Here’s what one of my spreads from this album looks like (forgive the photo, my scanner is not working!):

Samplespread
As you can see, in my version, it’s SIMPLE. Nothing fancy here. Just the way I like it.

This is just an album of one title page, and filler spreads. You can use one big photo for each spread, or several little ones. Dress it up any way you like. It’s totally up to you. I’m just giving you the page template with the lines, and the little title strips. (I also used a corner rounder on my page titles. Purely optional.)

Now…i hope the PDF works. I converted the type to outline, so it should print fine on just about any printer. Make sure you set your output to 100 percent. Hopefully, it’s simple to use. Post any critical questions on this thread.

I just wanted to say thank you for listening to me always creating much ado about nothing. Believe me…this blog, and the ability to get stuff out of my head into written form is far more beneficial than therapy.

Happy scrapbooking.

    I did find your blog through your book, but that led me to me re-starting a blog myself, which led me to not needing to scrapbook so much, which means that I visit your blog for the much ado about nothing, which I love. But it is nice to be reminded of cool scrapbooking ideas for when that passion resurfaces.

    I started reading for the scrapbook stuff but continued for the entertainment. I hardly ever scrapbook anymore because of work, but when I do, your books are my bible!

    Here’s a something I’ve been wondering since the first book and almost every time I see one of your layouts: I know you print alot of your titles in white and since printers don’t print in white but fill up the background instead, don’t you go through tons of ink??? I love the look but I can never get myself to use that much ink. Do you have stocks in ink companies? Just wondering…

    I made an 8×8 album modified from your 6×6 template in the Album Shortcuts special issue. I used 5×7 photos from our trip to Disney World in Dec. 2005! The trip was taken before I started scrapbooking, but your album inspired me to create an album from that trip.

    I love reading about your “much ado about nothing.”, and my hart always skip a beat (and angels sings :)) when you post something scrap-related. Thank you for sharing your ramblings/stuff on your blog.

    I do have a question for ye the scrapping goddess.
    On the modern album – did you cover the edges or just use the BG paper to the edge and cut. I CANNOT decide what to do with mine – will the edges hold up????? Any advice would be appreciated!!

    Cathy –
    I’ve been a big fan of yours since I picked up your book Clean & Simple The Sequel . . . I love your style, but even more, your book is very inspirational.
    Because of you, I decided to start a blog as well. You are right, I think it is therapeutic somehow. I just started, so it is a work in progress.
    I wanted to mention one thing . . . I use your book a lot and have read it a couple times . . . the pages are all falling out / apart. Not sure if others have this issue, but just wanted to alert you to the problem. I haven’t really had this problem with other publications, but probably just me overusing it.
    I read your blog often and enjoy your words and work. Thanks, Susan

With all of the good vibes coming from everyone who posts on your blog, I think you could have your own booth at the fair, and get way more folks lining up than the politicians or the free water. And you wouldn’t even need to have anything on a stick! But I guess it wouldn’t hurt…

I really appreciate that this is an album I can do with my almost seven year old. She has a speech disorder that makes her speech pretty uniteligible. She has told me she wants her mouth to catch up to what her heart says. (wouldn’t we all be better off if that were the case for everyone!) She loves to scrap about herself and loves expressing what her life is, how full and happy she makes it. This book would be a great project for us to take on together, with maybe some title adjustments! Thank you!

    Hi –
    I too found you because of your first book, which I love. I never got into paper scrapping. I have only recently (at long last!!!) learned to digi-scrap, but I truly love it!
    I find your blog to be delightful, warm, funny, refreshing – all good things! I don’t miss the scrap chat. In fact I like that your blog shows you to be so multi-faceted. Some scrapper’s blogs are very narrowly focused, while you are all over the map!
    Thanks for this cool inspiration/recipe and the download!

    First time to check out your site. Recommended from a friend that knows I can use some ridiculous laughs and pretend to scrapbook. Minor problem: your crowded house link to the right has expired. I mean, I seriously gasped. Was wanting to hear some CH. Love those men. Just saw them a few months ago in a small venue in Tempe. Might I say they get better with time. Enjoy your day!

    Morning Cathy,
    Just had to tell you it is 1 a.m. and I just returned home from the Pete Yorn, Crowded House Concert. What a wonderful night I can’t wait until you get to go. My husband kept telling me thanks babe this was the best night ever. We were not as lucky as you to be in row 2 but we were in row 6 and it was GREAT!!! It felt like you were hanging out with the guys in their studio we were so close. Neil gets the audience involved it was a night we won’t forget. I know we have never met but I thought about you sitting there in the second row and loving every minute of it. My husband asked me before we left should he dig out his old ear cuff. My teenage son said what is that? Crowded House brought back so many special memories for us I hope it does the same for you. Sorry if I am rambling it is late and I will only get a few hours sleep before the kids are off to school.

    Hey Cathy! After finding out that a friend had suffered a mini stroke on Monday at work I’ve been pretty upset. But I know that I can come to your blog and feel uplifted. Thank you for being such a generous preson and sharing your life with all of us. You always make me smile or laugh out loud.

    Thank you Cathy – will give it a try this weekend. Love your blog – the first one I visit every day – to give me a laugh – to put life into perspective – to remind me to step back sometimes and take time to smell the roses. You never fail me!! (By the way, my son’s school essays have never looked so good since I taught him about leading and white space – thanks to you again!)

    Wow – 89 comments and it’s only 10:00 on the East Coast! Well, here’s #90. Thanks for this – I think it’s great! The BoBunny cardstock album would be cool for this too! I’ve posted many times how great your blog is, mostly because you are so down to earth and real and not afraid to share that. Besides that, you are just plain funny. So, thank you and do have more scrapbooking stuff – I think your work is great.
    Thanks!

    Cathy,

    Just gotta say, You’re Awesome!! Thanks so much for including this nice little project on your blog today. I love scrapbooking, but am so overwhelmed by the options and the importance of being able to look back and see our lives from this time that I rarely make a page. My daughter is 3 months old, and I am desparate to record our daily lives through scrapbooking, and I think this project is just the jumpstart I need. Thanks!

    Thanks Cathy! Seems that I’ve found my labor day project… perfect!
    I’ll be thinking of you on October 17, which just happens to be my birthday. I should be sitting next to you in that class, but the commute from Boston is just a little too long for me. Enjoy!

    On my 1st anniversary last year, I decided that I wanted to make something that I could add a little to over the years and present to my husband as a gift on our 50th anniv that cronicles what he has meant to me over the years, but I couldn’t figure out the medium. I just knew I wanted it to look simple and capture the small daily things.

    Thank you. Problem solved.

    Also, how do you not become narcissistic from all the “you’re the greatest” comments you get every day?

    Thank you for sharing this, Cathy, I have not been very inspired lately and this might just be the jumpstart I need. You are a design GENIUS, so any and all tips/templates/ideas from you are manna from heaven.

    Thank you!
