They will be right there, ready for you when it’s time to scrapbook. You can also add the photos or other files that will help you with the project. Once I’m finished with a particular card, I simply archive that card so my list only shows the cards with active items to work on. As I finish a page, I simply check off that page from the list. I created a checklist for each layout (and the date so I can easily find the photos when I’m ready to scrapbook a particular page. This particular card outlines all of the pages that I want to create for my daughter’s second year as a Brownie. I’m working on getting all of the pages for my daughter’s Girl Scout experiences into an album. I have a list for each of them and then I’ve added cards under each list that allow me to track the bits and pieces of each project.Īdditionally, here is a look at one of the cards in my “Girl Scout Book” list… I use these project lists to help me track my progress on the specific memory keeping projects I am actively working on. Here is a glimpse into my Memory Keeping board, showing you three of the projects that I’m currently working on. You can also use Trello’s labeling function to create a variety of labels to help you track things even more easily! Tracking Projects ![]() Another tip that I offer is that you can add in the photos, template or kit previews for stories via the file attachment functionality. And… I’m also finding that I’m actually inspired to go in and get these stories told, since I’m not overwhelmed with the idea of finding things to scrapbook. This keeps me from having to search all over the place to find the photos and stories that I want to scrapbook! It saves me time and it makes organizing everything so much easier. Then, whenever I have time to scrapbook, I can look into the various years and decide which story I want to tell. Here are a couple of examples of these annual cards and the monthly checklists that I use to ensure I don’t miss any stories… There is also a description section in each card that allows you to add notes to yourself (or other information you’ll want handy as you work through these stories). ![]() Within the yearly list, I have created a card for each month of the year… and then I use a checklist to contain all of the specific stories from that month that I still want to tell. For example, there are still stories in 2009 that I want to capture in our family scrapbook album. In my Trello account, I have a list for each year, which allows me to track specific stories within a particular year. Cards can then be used to create checklists, add labels & due dates, upload files, and add comments. Once you have a board created, you can add as many lists as you’d like & then each list can be filled with cards. You simply create a board (mine is entitled “Memory Keeping”) to manage your scrapbooking needs. Trello is essentially a list full of lists, which are filled with cards that you can use to organize any project. The tool that I’ve been using to help organize my scrapbooking life is called Trello ! This is a free online tool, and it has really been a game-changer for me and how I scrapbook. I’ve recently discovered a new way to organize the stories and projects that I want to track for my scrapbooking.
