Hands down, it's 12x12 for me. Once in a blue moon I'll do an 8x8 as a gift album for someone, but that is rare.

8.5x11 for me. I've done a handful of 8x8 and 9x9 but I really prefer the rectangles

I have a ton of 12x12 albums from my old scrapbook life. After my long break (like 12 years or so) I do 9x12 project life and use 6x8, traveler’s notebooks, and 3x8 for projects instead.

12 x 12 works best for me. I occasionally go with 6 x 8 when I only have a few pictures. I don’t have to fill a bigger page.

The only size I have ever used, is three ring binders that hold 8.5 x 11 sheet protectors.

It was 12x12 but for the last 3.5 years it is 9x12.

I’m split 12x12 and 6x8. I have a horde of CT 4x8 sale albums, but haven’t actually put any to use yet. Good intentions and all.

12x12 for me too PaperAngel. Although I've done a lot of retirement gift albums and those are 8.5x11.

99% of my scrapbooking results in a single 12x12 page or a double 12x12 page layout. I rarely create pages smaller than that. I used to create mini book more frequently, but I haven't created a mini book in years.
I do have two mini book projects I would like to tackle this year: a Halloween mini book using photos from 2022 and a 2023 December Daily album. We will see if I finish either album.

12x12 for PL, 6x8 for DD, 9x12 for specialty albums.

I do love a good 6x12 but 6x8 chewed its way into my heart years ago and I've since become its forever slave. Like a hardback format but filled with my very own life stories.

I use 12x12 for my everyday scrapping. 6x8 is my go-to for projects like vacations, DD, and the like. I’ve considered transitioning PL from 12x12 to 6x8, but haven’t done that yet. I also want to start a 6x8 story book (to use my past AE story kit stuff), but that’s on the TBS list (to-be scrapped, kinda like a TBR list of books 😉)

Using mostly tn sized citrus twist albums at the moment as they’re my go to holiday/vacation album size and that’s what I’m trying to catch up and scrap at the moment.

I can't pick from the poll. I used 12x12 for traditional scrapbooking, 9x12 for Project Life, and 6x8 for December Daily. I Love all three sizes and don't see changing them up in the future.

12x12 for me with an occasional 8x8 for a gift

I probably use 6x8 and 6x12 equally. I use 6x12 for my Project Life (monthly) albums. I use 6x8 for everything else (WITL, Dec Daily, travel albums, OWL, etc).

8.5x11 I switched to mostly scrapping 12x12 with divided sheet protectors starting with 2010 photos. I also cut way down on the pages I made. It's basically a glorified photo album with some scrappy stuff thrown in there.

Thanks for your responses. I exclusively use 12x12 albums (with various sizes & configurations of page protectors included to hold extra photos or memorabilia).

Though I do have numerous 12x12 albums.

8 1/2 x 11, 3 ring only. I have made so many of these for family. I have also made a lot of 8 x 8 for gifts, these are post bound.

I'm a 12x12 scrapper. I need space for journaling and embellishments.

Except for a few mini albums I've never done anything except 12x12. I have been wanting to create an album about the people who have really impacted my life and am thinking of doing it as an 8 1/2 x 11. Sadly, many of these people I only have one photo at most.

By far, 12x12. It’s the size I’m most comfortable with.

12x12 but I still have a lot in scrapping with 5 busy kids in the house. I can see transitioning as the move out. I do enjoy the occasional 6x8 for things like DD or vacations.
