a couple more pages from maggie holmes

Here's a little more of 365 from Maggie Holmes. Maggie's approach for 365 is on the life of her kids, what they do, and how they will change throughout the entire year. A fun perspective for sure! And, on top of it all, Maggie is an amazing photographer!

Thanks for creating these wonderful pages Maggie!

  1. Love these pages! My kit should be waiting for me today and I can't wait to get started putting it together.

  2. I like how she used two photos for some of them. That helps me a ton, because sometimes, I have 2 that I want to use but can't decide. Thank you for sharing!

  4. love that you are sharing ideas on using the kit, would love to see more. Love the 2 picture thing too, i also have trouble deciding.

  5. Thank you for the ideas. Keep them coming.

    Did she print the small pic together or seperatly? would like to do that too. I already have a stack of extra pics started. with a family of 6, and 4 of us taking pics, it is hard to deciding which ones to use.

  6. Any suggestions for repairing a broken binder ring besides taping it? Mine is catching on all the pages when taped and pages are falling out if the ring doesn't close. It came that way (surprise, surprise).

  7. I LOVE how she used the punch on the "WEEK OF" card edge. What a terrific idea!

    For those of you that can't choose your photos I have a suggestion...the tri-fold cards would be great for 5 or 6 smaller photos, then you could journal on pp cut to 4x6.

    I would love to see more ideas!!!!

  8. amyZ...What a great idea thank you!! Now the kids will be pleased to see more of their pics in the album. My hands are itching to put this kit together.

    ScrapThis... Look in the tool box. Maybe pliers to pinch the ring together. It will have to be pinched past eachother so when you let go they should sit closer. I would rather return it for a new one. Good luck.

  9. What are the chances of Ck creating a digital version of the Project 365 kit, for those of us who did not get one. The pieces I downloaded from Becky's blog are great, but I would be willing to buy the whole kit in digital form. I'm sure there are others who would also.
    Thanks, Debi

  10. I have had several of my days with multiple pics and I use Picasa (free download from Google) and make them into a 4X6 mosaic or grid (depending on pic) collage. Then you can print them as 1 4X6.

  11. Cwebb, I agree, but can you imagine me trying to get a replacement binder at this point? A big LOL at that one!

  12. ScrapThis... they should have replacement stuff for cases like yours. when i had the sold out school kit, i was able to get replacements for that kit. if you search Becky or Lisa's blogs you can find Vivian's email. she is the one to talk to.

  13. I'm so happy for all of you but so sad for me and my cousin. We wanted this kit so much. I wish CK would give us some answers if they are going to be running it again or not. I keep trying to come up with my own idea but would rather have Becky's kit. I have ordered several from CK and I know she is just the best!

  14. Swap kits anyone?

    I just can't wait to get my hands on one of the Project 365 kit. I've seen where several of you received more than one by mistake and wondered if anyone was willing to swap a 365 kit for a former KOTM? I purchased two of the Ali Edward's "Beautiful Everyday" kit over a year ago and just used the one. I know this kit is less than the 365 kit, so I'd be willing to pay the difference, plus shipping costs.

    Email me if you'd like to see pictures of this kit. It's very cute with Ali's cool font cd and rubber stamps!

    Thanks!

  15. Can you pass it along to your customer service reps to please answer their emails. I have sent 5 without one reply. It is becoming a joke.

  16. Hi everyone! I just want to say that I don't think it is likely that CK will produce any new Project 365 kits. I got this from Mr Worner a couple of days ago: "We had not intended to re-order, but I'm not ruling out the possibility of an opportunity in the future. I don't know that we will know right away." I interpret this as "we will not re-order, at least not in a year or two". What do you think?

  17. Could someone from the KOTM team give us an official update on shipping. I was charged on the 5th, but still no kit. Are they in the warehouse ready to ship???

    ReplyDelete
  18. Would love to know when the kits are going to ship also! I was also charged on the 5th. And will you be updating the blog more regularly? Would love more ideas, please :) thanks guys!

  19. I saw this at 2Peas. It might help out those still awaiting their kit and have yet to receive a response from customer service.

    ***********************************************

    I gave up on the customer service e-mail address & waiting on hold and went to the fulfillment company's website. There, I found e-mail addresses for everyone from the CEO on down.

    I CC'd them all in my last request to creatingkeepsakescs@holdenmss.com for info on my order.

    They called me back THAT DAY and left a message informing me that my order had been shipped immediately. She asked me to call her back but I haven't been able to because of my work schedule.

    I think somebody higher up in that company needs to know how we all feel.

    Here are the addresses I used if anyone else is trying to reach CK CS:

    creatingkeepsakescs@holdenmss.com, gholden@holdengraphics.com, dking@holdenmss.com, jquinn@holdenmss.com, awallis@holdenmss.com, delder@holdenmss.com, krodriguez@holdenmss.com

  20. Skygrl, what is the fulfillment company's website URL? Also, were you told you were in the "4-6 week" category originally? Can you post when you actually GET the kit? Thanks!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  21. just spoke to cs after only holding for 8 minutes...said we would be credited and then recharged for the kit and that they will ship mid-February...

    ReplyDelete
  22. All of those emails posted by skygrl did work. I got an email back within 30 min. They said the same thing... ship mid Feb but hopefully this will get my credit card refunded.

  24. To the CK KOTM team: I am still taking a picture a day in hopes that you will reorder more Project 365 kits. You've reordered kit-of-the-months before and made them available, so please do it again. Thank you.

  25. I had ordered a project 365 kit and a little stories kit at the same time. Today I finally received my Project 365 kit, but no Little Stories Kit. Yet my CC was charged on Jan 5th. When I tried calling CS, I spoke to Philip for about 10 seconds. He informed me they were having technical difficulties and to call back in 15 minutes. After about 12 minutes, I did call back. But all I got was the voice mail stating their office is now closed. Very frustrating! So I sent and email to all of the above listed by Skygrl. Maybe I'll get a response.

  26. OK so now almost a month later still no answer for whether they'll be ordering more kits? This is really getting rediculous!!!! Is it really so much to ask for a straight answer? How hard could it possibly be to find out if it's possible to get more of these kits?

    ReplyDelete
  27. Michelle--I don't know the fulfillment company's website. I was just passing on info I had heard elsewhere. Sorry! I'm glad to see it is helping some of you. I did receive a kit on the 9th, but I was not in the "4-6 week" camp. I hope everyone gets things worked out. I can't believe they have stopped giving updates!

  28. Daisy, I agree! I also think someone on the KOTM team should read ans answer to the comments posted here!

  29. Anyone else get the form email today that the kit will be shipped mid-Feb and to "refrain" from emailing anyone at Holden Corporate. I find it kind of funny that after ignoring emails from me, never updating this blog with useful information and never reversing the charges on my credit card that they are annoyed that I emailed someone else. Interesting.

  30. I just read this on another board:
    The second shipment of Project 365 is currently in transit from China. Our shipper is estimating delivery to our warehouse by mid-February. After the shipment is checked in, within 48 hours we anticipate being able to process your order. I was also expecting it the first week of Feb.
