Hi, peas! I need some advice because I can't decide! I am about to get started on my first full week of my 2016 PL album (12x12). I had my heart set on weekly title cards because I love the idea of consistency. I like the look of something graphic and bold because I like the clean look, but I don't really care what number week it is. I don't like the DIY layered paper/thickers cards because it's not consistent or graphic and it's not my style. I also considered doing like Kelly Purkey and using a weekly selfie with the dates stamped on it, but that's also not really consistent or graphic. I take tons of selfies so this could be an option! I found these cards: arlyna.com/2015/12/11/printables-weekly-title-cards-2/ but the weeks are Sunday-Saturday and I'm going Monday-Sunday (again- do I really care...? My album isn't going to be graded by teacher!) I mostly only care about how it *looks*. Will it be TOO boring printed in black and white? For reference, I really like Kelly Purkey and Tracy Armstrong's styles. I need some input on this from my betters. It's time to make a decision because I want to get to work and I have to live with this for the year. Have any of you struggled with this and care to share your wisdom? I really don't have any friends who scrap or PL, so if you have *any* helpful comments for me, I'm happy to read and talk about it! TIA! And thanks for engaging in this awesome community- truly this place makes me so happy!

Have you checked out The Lily Pad for digital cards? I know some of the card have the Monday - Sunday option. the-lilypad.com/store/Printables/For 2 years I used a simple week # 4x6 card and then stamped the dates on it. They gave me the consistency I was looking for in my album. Sometimes I did a bit of embellishment on the card.

Thanks freeatlast, I'll check those out! Did you use black and white? What did your title card look like?

Just clicking around, I went back to the Arlyna.com blog and saw that she made the cards in a vertical 3x4 orientation, which works for me because I use design A! Maybe that with Elise Blaha's quote cards balanced on the page would be a good balance of stark & design! *still thinking...*
