Question for Izzy – did you change something that affects the sound? I’ve always had to max the volume in my car but with this episode I couldn’t hear some of the guests at all.

Someone recently made a good point about this idea, too. When this was mentioned in an earlier episode most of us were kind of down on it because the QR technology will soon change into something else and then they won’t work. But someone said that even when that happens it’ll be fun to see those QR codes and say, “Remember those?” At some point they’ll be vintage!

I think it was this show that you were talking about Izzy’s videos…. (I am currently going back and listening from the beginning!)… I wanted to remind everyone that it’s easy to include videos in your Project Life or scrapbook pages by using a QR code. I upload videos onto You Tube (because you know that’s not going anywhere), generate a QR code online, download and print it and slap it in my PL spread. Easy as.

Oh, I had a bedside table drawer like that too. All special treasures (and a few heartaches). Thanks for reminding me! ;-)

I was looking for a video on Youtube and stumbled across this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVL7OyZeqcw with beautiful large pockets and I was reminded of this PRT-show.

I haven’t heard it myself, so I don’t know if it’s like that for everyone. What I do know is that now that we’re not using Skype Izzy can no longer control the various voice channels. This is the very reason we hung onto Skype so long when it started giving us problems. I’ll look into it, though.

I LOVED this episode. I have scrapbooked with ephemera since I started scrapbooking – about 15 years ago now. When I was in high school, I would keep all of my movie, concert and other ticket subs. At the end of the year I would scrapbook my year in entertainment. Even now, I pick up coasters from restaurants I eat at. I fit them into the back ground as an additional layer of embellishment. The scrapbook pages I mostly use ephemera on are vacation pages, but I have noticed, that I am incorporating more and more of my kids’ school reports, concert programs, etc. I particularly liked one of their valentines last year from the school party and built that into a layout. I also am a sucker for greeting cards. I keep everyone I receive. I utilize pockets in the back of albums to keep them.

I liked the clothing tag idea, that May/Stacy mentioned. I recently lost a bit of weight and am documenting it (thanks Cathy Z.). I purchased new jeans and am wearing the same size I did in high school. I kept the jeans label tag, and you better believe that that is going on a scrapbook page!

Thank you so much for such a wonderful show. I impatiently hit refresh in iTunes every Tuesday waiting for the new show. I find a bit of inspiration every time and you never fail to make me smile and laugh.

Thanks,

Wendy

Did Izzy mention what he’s using to take those video blog clips?

Hi you all, I haven’t been scrapbooking much except for blogging, but I just made two new notebooks, one for my knitting designs, and one to play with zentangling. I heard about it on the craftlit podcast, and then I thought Noel would like this – just because I listen to two podcasts doesn’t mean they know each other! http://christineguestdesigns.com/blog/?p=922

So does it count if I used my big bite on the notebook to add elastic loops, and added die cuts?

Still listening though I’m not doing much,

Christine

Was it just me or was this episode difficult to listen to because of audio levels? I could barely hear Stacy and Noell came in loud and clear. May and Ashli were softer but I could understand them. I was very interested in the subject but just couldn’t follow because of the audio. thanks for a great podcast, I listen every week!

Episode 112 – I’m a Piler (I think). I just re-listened to this episode last week. Good luck!

I love your enthusiasm! Thank you! :)

I remember that the first time we had Tracy Clark on the show we spent a lot of time with each of us talking about our camera equipment. Try doing a search on my blog for Tracy Clark and PRT. She’s been on twice and it will be the earliest one.

First of all, I have to say, I was totally flattered that you read my comment on the show! Wow!!! Thanks :) It was pretty surreal to hear Izzy reading my words, haha ;-)

I was listening to the show on my drive with my little girl to meet my mom for an all-day outlet shopping extravaganza. I’ve been looking forward to this day trip for quite some time now, and the discussion totally inspired me to scrapbook about it! I’m planning to save the tags from the clothes I bought (I got some *awesome* deals, yay!!) and use them with some of the ideas you mentioned on the show to make a layout. This evening, I wrote down my thoughts about the day so that I don’t have to rush to get to the layout (though I’m so excited about it that it might get bumped to the top of my “list”). I love the idea of layering the tags just like I’d use patterned paper. Awesome. I also thought Stacy’s bits-and-pieces-of-”right-now” layout idea was fantastic. My mind is exploding with ideas now! I love PRT!!! :)

Yes, it does make sense! Thank you! And thank you for your membership!! :)

That’s awesome! :)

Thank you for all the kind words. Good luck with your Project Life assembly!

Just talked to Izzy. He says that yes, you do tear off the ends when it’s done printing so it becomes 4×6. We don’t know what the “L” is that you’re referring to, but he says it’s super easy. You just open the tray, put the paper in and slide the tray back in. You just make sure the photo paper is face up. There’s nothing more to it really, he says.

Yay! We ALWAYS love to get that first comment! :)

Thank you for it and for your non-schmoe membership!

Hi Noel and Izzy. This is an off topic question, but can you post somewhere/point me to the episode(s) where you guys talked about the camera equipment you use/recommend. I love your show titles Izzy man, but it sure makes it hard to find what each episode topic was! Looking into getting a DSLR & lenses, wanted to brush up on what all you “experts” use. Thank You :)

I discovered Paperclipping last fall, loved the Roundtable and quickly subscribed because I’m an information junkie and I love watching videos to learn! I listen in the car to and from work almost everyday, but I’ve never felt I had anything to contribute in the comments -until today! Noell was talking about Izzy’s videos that perfectly capture the moment, and knowing that Izzy is now a Project Lifer, (so cool, by the way!) made me wonder: did you know you can combine the two? Using QR Codes generated by a website like http://www.the-qrcode-generator.com/ you can link a video from YouTube (or other website,) print out the QR code and include it in your PL layout. Then when you’re looking at pictures from an event, you can use your smartphone with a free QR reader app to scan the code which will automatically take you to the video. You can be looking at pictures from a birthday party and then scan the code and watch the birthday kid blow out the candles–all on your phone. How cool is that?! It may sound complicated but it is really, really easy! Yes, the technology will be outdated someday, but years from now people can look at the pages with the QR codes and say, “Remember when those little codes were all over everything?” I hope this makes sense. Thanks for another great discussion!
