I use 12x12 Bazzill Plastic Paper (just like overlays) for the clear elements in this album and my December Daily 2011 I cut them down to the size I want and insert,emboss, staple, tape or sew them to pages.
My page protectors are various sizes, including the following: 6x6, 6x8.5 and 5x7. I am thinking about adding these 4x6 to the mix as well!
Adhesives- I used anything that is clear or dries clear like mini glue dots (love how small these are); This to That Glue Dot Runner and Zip Dry.
I print my photos at home on an old cannon color photo printer. Some of my instagram photos on week two are 2x2, overlay photo is 3x5 and the remaining photos are 2x3.
hope this answers any questions you have if not just ask away from the link at the top of the blog or on twitter, I am happy to answer! :)

I don't toss this word around a lot, but you're brilliant!
i also think that's a great idea, cutting things to size. i look at all the 12X12 blogs/layouts/everything being made for 12X12 and im a cut to size girl, so it's hard for me to not think im already doing it wrong. thanks for sharing your PL with us and your thoughts.
You are the QUEEN of customizing!
I heart your "take" Project Life ... and all those old school products? Swoooon. XO
I have to agree with Marcy! I love your take on PL!!!
I, too, love that you have all sizes in your book--I'm such a "play by the rules" girl that I forget it's ok to relax and go with the flow! Love your work!
omg girl, I love it!!!
ha! I just emailed you earlier and asked what size your pics are and what printer you use, then I see here you listed them...we think alike my friend.
I'll email you back in a just a minute, I was just looking again how you're doing your album pages. I'm excited to get started.
I agree with how fast the weeks go. I also realize that my life feels very boring in the winter.
Still working on mine- it's gonna be a while- love the see through design of yours- makes for fun layering of colors- thanks for the plastic paper tip- I may have to look into that!
