Default 365 day templates...8.5x11

Hi everyone,

This is such a fantastic site, lots of great info and inspiration.

I 'lurk' on here regularly but often forget to comment

I am wondering whether there are any 8.5x11 templates for project 365 or whether any of Katies can be resized to 8.5x11?

Any help would be great:-)

I'm curious too- or are the templates mostly to fit with Shutterfly's book sizes?

Shutterfly also makes 8.5x11 books.

I know that Anna has some 8.5 x 11 landscape templates that could be modified to work:

12x12 (or square format) is the traditional scrapbooking size. I know most paper products are produced in that size and I think it just carried over to digital scrapbooking. You can customize a template to work w/ 8.5 x 11. You would either need to shrink or eliminate portions, or stretch it over as a dps.

I scrapped 8.5 x 11 for awhile, and finally switched to square pages.

1. I just would pull up the template
2. make a copy of it
3. click resize . canvas . change to 8.5 x 11
4. then, moved the various properties of the template around and resize them until I was happy with the changes.

It works!

Thank you Mollie.

I just went off and tried your idea and it worked!!

It took a little bit of tweaking and some patience (not my strong point) but I got there in the end.

Thanks so much:-)
