Project Life tips & tricks; Photos 2

Did you survive that last post? And you're back for more? Awesome!

So, last time I talked about some fun things I do with Project Life photos. But what happens when you don't have any photos?

That happens a lot to me, so I've learned to improvise!
Picture
Every once in a while (thankfully not that often!), I have one of those weeks that is just so busy I don't have a lot of time for anything else. Which means no photos! So I sometimes take a screenshot of my calendar and include that.
Picture
The same thing goes with weather. I'm not one to go out and take photos of poor weather (I tend to hide inside and obsessively watch the news), and really, how does one take a photo of oppressive heat or frigid cold? Anyway; screenshot!
Picture
Go to many movies? I do! I save my tickets and print out a small movie poster. Instant 4x6 pocket insert!
Picture
Does anyone else binge-watch TV shows on Netflix? No? Just me? Ok then...

When I get into a new show, I print out a photo I find online, and journal about it! Same goes for new games or music I find.
Picture
My friends and I like to play games, but they don't like it when I take photos of them. So I take the game cards and put those in my book instead!
Picture
And sometimes I find things on Facebook or Pinterest that I just love. And so, print!
And that's about all for today. What about you? How do you scrap without photos? What kids of things do you print out and include in your books?

Come back next week for more of my tips about Project Life including journaling and what to do with all those non-photo or non-paper extras!

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who snags pictures of my friends' babies from facebook to stick in PL! I also use screenshots here and there, and include movie and TV show images and book covers. Google images is such a help when I have a slow week (although it can also be a huge time suck, looking for the perfect image to sum up an amazing season finale). I have had a relative ask "who are those two people snogging (kissing) in that picture?!" looking at one of my pages and I had to explain that it was Nick and Jess from New Girl... lol. Historians will have a great time trying to figure out our albums :)
