You read that right. $11.99 for albums and $1.99 for page protectors!! I don't need them and even I'm tempted to buy!!

I use 11x8.5. How much bigger? I know 1/2 inch, but would it be noticeable on the shelf? Mine are $18 on amazon and I need a bunch.

I decided to give this size a try. I've been using WRMK 8x8 albums for the last couple of years, as my first attempt at pocket-page scrapping. They have been specifically for seasons and vacation, but the 9x12 size looks like something I can use for random print-worthy photos moving forward.

I think I'll like this size, though. Time to look up the photo collage threads!

Thank you for sharing! I love these albums and was mad when they were discontinued. I want my albums to match so I just ordered a ton. Promo code "sunshine" takes 10% off your order

oaksong , look up Pic Monkey to make a 2 photo collage. Becky Higgins has really helpful ( and specific! ) instructions on one of the PL blogs on how to do it there, and on a couple more sites as well. I'll try to link it later ( I don't know how to on my phone ) and best of all, it's free.

Thanks for posting this! I couldn't pass up those prices, especially on page protectors! I'm glad it's the 7paper 3-ring 9x12 instead of the SC 4-ring - the 3-ring will fit 12x12 albums as inserts.

I really don't need albums, but dang...good deal. Might have to grab a couple and hide them from my husband

I scrap 8.5x11, but I bought an album just to try it out. I used to enjoy 6x12 too.
I also recommend photosheet (for pc) or the PL app for putting 2 3x4 on a 4x6. both of them are no-brainers, which is essential for someone as tech-challenged as I am.

My husband is a horizontal photo taker. The 9x12 is difficult because there isn't a 3 3x4 and 3 4x6 option makes it optimal for vertical photos which means unless I hoard the camera (and where's the fun in that?) I'll end up with a lot of horizontal photos. I was planning on using the stash of 9x12 I had for our Disney trip, but 9 out of 10 photos are horizontal, which means it's not possible unless I make my own page protectors...if I could get my hands on the 6 4x6 12x12's, I could easily fuse my own but they didn't have them at the warehouse sale (they were out of a lot of page protectors...it's on order but they get last priority so there is no way to know when things will restock with them), but my plan is to use them as inserts as well since they fit regular albums. I do have a couple of albums and if/when I have a project that will work for them, great, if not...at least the page protectors won't go to waste. I can also use the albums with 8 1/2x11 page protectors and keep things from the kids' school and growth records from doctor's appointments in those if I wanted to.

If anyone is looking for collage type photoshop templates, I bought a few from Tracy Larsen which I use all.the.time. She has different configurations/sizes on 3x4, 4x4 and 4x6 and it's speeded up my editing/printing step a lot. You get a set of 15 customisable templates for about $5 which I think is pretty good. Super easy to just add photos and use with clipping mask to resize. There are templates with rounded and squared corners. Check out her shop here.

Need to look on you tube now. Becky now has a link to PicTapGo in the app when editing/collaging photos.
