Curious to see what everyone chooses. Please choose the one you use most often. Then in the comments you can discuss other sizes.

I scrap 12x12. I have made 2 6x6 gift albums albums for family. I like the size because I can fit multiple good sized photos on the layout. It is also easy for me to work with.

I am mostly 12x12, but have been adding in 8.5x11, 6x12, and 6x8 pages. I think it makes it more interesting.

Currently I am doing project life in a 12x12 album. However that just started at the beginning of the year. Prior to that I was doing 12x12 and 8.5x11 pretty evenly. I like both these sizes, really. And I can't put my finger on what would make me choose one size over another. It was almost like it was just intuitive for me at this point to know which size which was going to work best with what photos.

My answer is Yes
I have scrapped literally every size mentioned plus 8x8 & 6x8
Most currently 12x12 pocket album with ‘12xwhatever suits my fancy’ mixed in. But I do have an active 11x8.5 that I occasionally add to for ‘heritage’ scrapping. And travel albums are usually 6x8 ( or 8x6 ) pocket pages with whatever mixed in.
Recipe albums are 6x6 and gift albums have mostly all been 8x8
Then my planner LOL

I am 95% a 12x12 scrapbooker. I have an album's worth of 8 1/2 x 11 pages plus a couple of 6x8, 6x6 & maybe an 8x8 books.
When I make a gift album, it's generally 8x8 or 6x8.

I mostly scrap 12x12. I also make travel notebooks on small trips and 6x8 albums for bigger trips and December Daily.

I picked 12x12 because that’s the majority of my scrapbooking, but I also do 6x8 for things like December Daily or Week in the Life.

I scrap with a 12x12 album, but add in lots of different size page protectors.

I scrap 12x12. On one occasion, I created an 8x8 album for a friend. However, I use all types of product (6x6 paper, pocket cards etc...) on my 12x12 layouts.

12x12 primarily for me. I have a couple 6x8 albums I’m currently doing, and I love doing memory books too. Those are a variety sizes.

I'm mostly a 12x12 scrapper with 2 mini albums a year that are 6x8. Even my PL album is 12x12 which I do weekly spreads. I just find I can work with that size the easiest and the albums and pp are easy to find.

I'm definitely 12x12. I like to have as much area as I can to work with. The other sizes don't give me enough room to decorate or put several photos on.

I checked 12x12 but it is pocket page/PL scrapping. I didn’t check Project Life b/c I felt that is more of a style rather than a size.

12x12 layouts that go into D-ring style albums.
I also make scrapbooks in other random sizes, but I sell those.

I checked Project Life, but it's 12 x 12 size. Sometimes I throw in a traditional 12x12 layout.

12 by 12. I'm trying to do old photos. a.k.a. photos from my childhood or genealogy where I don't have a lot to say as 8.5 by 11 but sometimes I forget...

My size isn't listed but I scrap TN sized/Fit into a life crafted album. 4.25 x 8.25 lol
Mainly pocket pages but also outside of the pages for a little extra room if I feel I need it.
I'll do things like DD at 6x8 but I like working smaller. I miss being able to print off 4x6's and using as-is from my selphy but I've got a pretty nice little system down to get larger photos into the big pocket at the bottom of CT's 3 pocket with the instax sizes on top.

I mostly scrap 12 x 12, but I started out with 8.5 x 11 and have made gift albums in 6 x 6. On Instagram, I see lots of different sizes of albums, skinnier, with lots of rings in the middle. I have no idea what size they are, but they look interesting. I have also worked with actual traveler's notebooks (stapled together) that fit in a leather cover, and the little ones that rukristin uses to do daily pages. Guess I should check out those multi-ring ones that seem to be popular now so I'll have an excuse to buy more scrapbook supplies! (Like I really need to.  ) |

I started out scrapping 12x12, then switched to 8.5x11, and now I'm back to 12x12. I scrap an occasional 8x8 themed album and I really like that size, too. It's perfect for 3x4 and 4x4 pictures.

Everyday life is 12x12 & that's what I scrap the most. WITL & DD are done in 6x8 albums. I have an 8.5x11 album I use for personal layouts that don't need to go in the family album, but don't use it very often.
Trip albums are the only variables as it depends on the trip--10 road trip to DC overfilled 3 12x12s, but long weekend trips to Wisconsin Dells the last 2 years were done in a 9x12 (2019) and a 6x8 (2020) with a little room to spare. I bought two 12x12s for this summer's 9 day road trip to Colorado & I'm hoping that's all I need (I like to take a lot of pictures & also like to do large pictures too...)

I only scrap 12x12 . I also do Project Life as 12x12 as well.
For those who selected Project Life, what size do you use?

I would love to hear from any European peas scrapping in A4, whether paper, hybrid or digital. I want to try it, but I'm a little apprehensive.
For those not familiar with A4, it's the standard paper size in most countries. At 297mm x 210mm it is a taller, skinnier version of US Letter size. My reason for wanting to try it are that binders, cardstock, and page protectors are easily available. You can also print your own patterned paper at home. You can also get photo paper that size, so possibly even print digital layouts at home, although it would be expensive.

I scrapbook 8.5 x 11.
Chronological order, from January to December. One or sometimes two scrapbooks for each year.
My scrapbooks are three ring binders and sheet protectors.

I do both 8.5x11 and 12x12, nearly equally. It depends on how much the particular subject being scrapped needs coverage.
