WE'RE DOING DECEMBER! Whether you pre-plan your December Daily or create as you go along in the Christmas month; make your own covers or decorate ready-made ones, use Project Life style with plastic sleeves and pockets or create your own pages. Maybe you havent made one before and ask 'I cant think what I'd fill a page with everyday?' We'll help with that! Whatever your style we'd love to see it! Here you will find a seasonal blog open from 1st November to 31st January each year. We hope that this will become a wonderful resource of sharing, prompts and inspiration. What is a December Daily? Its a mini-album recording your daily memories capturing the spirit of December. Bring it out with your decorations each year and remember Christmases past. Scroll down on the right side bar and you will find past December Daily albums of each Designer. Check their 'journey' link too, this will give you some great tips and scroll a little further down and you will see the albums categorised into types for easier searching :) Now - 'Let's December Daily'!

Deb's Days 15 & 16 and a little extra......




Day 15.
A large paper clip with a fabric tie and tree charm holds down the bottom photo.


The top photo is glued on 3 sides only to form a pocket for a 3 x 4 journalling card.  The bottom photo folds out to reveal 2 more underneath.

The 3 x 4 card under the fold out piece has been machine stitched then sanded over to rough up the stitching and distress the card.



Day 16.
Using a black and white photo for today with text on the photo and a coloured cut out photo of the pom pom trees.  Also some trees cut from fabric as well as a decorated die cut tree used as embellishments.

This page from the original album had a little cut-out so I decided to paint and decorate a wood veneer  bauble and have it "dangle" from the top of the cut out.   It's tied, glued and stapled to the top so should be quite secure.  As the album gets close to being finished I will see if the "dangling" is going to cause any problems as I turn the pages and if so,  I can attach it by some thread to the bottom of the cut -out.



Over these 2 days, I had some beautiful drawings and paintings done for me so I decided I would decorate a kraft coloured envelope to pop them in to.

Some gauze along the bottom dabbed over with some Jo Sonja's Opal dust, a snowman sticker and crystal kindy glitz for snow.


and that can be popped into the pocket on the back cover.

I hope everyone is going well with their December Dailys.  We would love to see your progress.
