Bec's PL - Days 15-21............




Here are my pages from Day 15 to half of Day 21..........................
 
 
On the left is Day 15. Not much happened that day, only that I had taken a photo of my daughter with her glasses that she found. I filled the other pockets with a little memories card and a patterned card I put a gold strip of ribbon and the Day number.
The other side was from work of what I received from the group of girls and a photo of all of us girls. Another patterned card with the Day number on it to fill the pocket.
The photos of my daughter, and the one of me are backed onto a tag doubling as a card, with added ribbon.



A continuation of Day 16 and photos of a gift I received and my daughter at school on Christmas Dress Up day with her friends.



Day 17 goes over 2 pages. At the start of the year I took photos of my daughter on her first day at school. I then took a photo of her on her last day of school and put them together in a collage to have them side by side for comparison.
The postcard type card at the top contains a little description above each photo of what her first day was like on the left and a description of what she had achieved throughout the year and what she can now do at the end of the year.
A larger photo on the right was just a photo I loved of her jumping in the air to celebrate her last day of Prep.



Another page for Day 17 shows a photo of my work breakup. I used a large gold doily which I cut in half and added a wooden Christmas tree and a little wreath sticker to the corner of the photo.
And on the right is Day 18. Which was meant to be surgery for my daughter, but it was cancelled, so we went home and spent the day crafting/getting messy with paint together. 



Day 19 shows very simple pages with a large sticker next to a photo of Tinsel our elf in the gingerbread house. And a photo of my parents dog who had surgery.
The other side is Day 19 also and shows my daughter creating a bear at Build a Bear, with lots of journaling of why we did it and how much fun she had. 


Day 20 was a quiet day. Just packing to go away and getting messy again with a photo of what I created.
Day 21 was a 1st Birthday party that turned into a surprise wedding, so I have lots of photos to go in for this day. A little journaling about the event because I think the photos speak volumes.
For one of the journaling tags I used a die cut star with some washi tape underneath and a little doodling around the edge of the card to 'finish' it off. 

 
Happy New Year to you all!!! I hope you all have a safe, joyous and prosperous one.
Even though it's January, I will continue to share the remainder of my pages until I have shared them all. 

                Keep sharing your December Daily pages with us, they are awesome!
Your work will also become a resource throughout the year too!

  4. So much going on as well as Christmas! Loving all the tags, such a brilliant way to get lots of photos in. Bit envious of the build a bear pages, always wanted to do that. And that surprise wedding, how amazing!
