My DD’s 6×6 MM Album
Initially I plan to do 9×9 album since it’s not a big shock for me who is doing 6×6 all this while, if I wish to upgrade to a bigger album. I found that 12×12 is huge (maybe mentally illusion) but when I hold the 12×12 cardstock in hand and imagine a 12×12 album… I kind of fear of:1) Hubby sure will kill me if he sees such a big album (in other words, spend extra money in sb which to him is not neccessary);
2) May take up more of ‘ME’ time to complete or even drag for longer period since this is a big LO and time is not always by my side;
3) More cardstock and pattern paper to be purchased. I will have a really big hole in the pocket since I’m also addicted to other stuff like knitting and modern cloth diapering… Gosh! Why the hell I’m addicted to so many things at once… *Sigh*
So, back to the album, 9×9 is not really a popular size (really?) since not many manufacturer carry it. I only manage to find Making Memories (MM) in local sb store and the price is… Wow! Imagine I can get one 12×12 album with almost the same price as MM. Well yes, I’m reluctant to get the 9×9 album now.
Just a quick look at MM 9×9 album and other 12×12 album and of course we have more choices for the 12×12 (some are easy on the pocket too). No doubt by having a bigger size album and bigger LO I have the chance to play around more with the techniques and lots of artistic stuff in there. That’s a plus point… downside is the desire to buy is getting greater as only that you will have enough papers and embellishment to decorate the bigger LO. How am I going to play sb in a frugal way? This is another big challenge…
Difficult decision… thinking hard… comparing, considering, calculating, planning,… I have very conflicting mind now…
