I had this big plug about capturing the everyday all written out, but I'm setting it aside and letting the 12of12 speak for itself. Once you begin to see your life and capture your favorite people, your routines, and the bits and pieces of your day not only will you have an assortment of photos that you love, but you will begin to see how beautiful your life is. I like to think of it like gratitude. When you express it daily you begin to see your blessings more and more, and so it is with photography. The more you become acquainted with what's around you the more you appreciate what you have.
So it goes without saying that I am looking forward to another year ahead of capturing my everyday. If you are new to the 12of12 challenge please check out this post where I explain it's origins and the reason I started doing it. Also there is a link to the template I use and a few pointers to get started. Again, like I've done in the past, I will remind you on the 11th and have a post up on the 13th that you can link to (i may try a different link if I can get my act together).
My hope this year is that we will all see the good in our days and by doing so we will begin to see our hearts desire. Meaning, by looking over a years worth of twelves you will begin to see a common thread that links them all together -- the things you go to most are usually the things that light you up.
Have fun!

12x12 totally changed my life. My photos aren't nearly as beautiful as I want them to be (I really want to take your squam class), but I'm proud that I've stuck with it and capture the moments in our days that I want to remember.
Wow, I can't believe we're starting another year of 12 on the 12ths! I love having these grids!
Jill your pictures are wonderful, and your take on the concept is amazing! When I started scrappin 12-of-12 pictures back in 2006, people looked at me like I was insane! But after this many years they are some of my favorite photo collections to go back to!
You have a link to the blog I was running for awhile, under the Cathy Z. mention. But 2 years ago we pretty much moved the workings to Facebook. If any of you would like to get in on the group and share templates, page sketches, inspiration {and reminders} you are welcome to do so.
Here is the link...https://www.facebook.com/groups/246184797265/
once there you'll find the "ASK TO JOIN GROUP" in the upper right corner. The more the merrier!
Fabulous job - here's to a wonderful 12-of-12 20twelve! Can't wait for 12-12-12!!!

Amy!! I finally made my 1st one.. I guess 2012 was the year to start?! LOL. Will post tomorrow. xo
I am doing it this year! ACtually have been taking photos ALL day long today! captured almost 300 photos!
The hard part is doing the collage/edits etc. I am not as great at taking pix, so I have some bad ones in the bunch too. ugh.
I think I will just do a piknik collage because I don't have time to do it the other way, it's so time consuming!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this project and your photos and your beautiful family!
