Jane's Days 15, 16, 17 & 18


Day 15


Another page needing some adaptation as I wanted to include several landscape photos. I used a page protector with two 3" x 4" pockets at the top and one 4" x 6" pocket at the bottom as the base. Then I cut up a 12" x 12" page protector into individual 6" x 4" pockets. I attached two of them on top of my base protector and machine stitched them together to give stability.


I made an extra large journalling card to slip into one of the pockets, managing to pick off the circle & star embellishmentstack from the pre-prepared card.


Here's how it looks when open (above) and closed (below).


Day 16


 This page includes the back of that 6" x 4" bottom pocket. I simply added my journalling card and a quotation card side by side with a little repositional glue to keep them in place.


Day 17


Today I made a stamped transparency for one of the pockets.


I used staz-on ink to stamp part of the bauble stamp from Honey Doo Crafts. I then added some sequins and gems to both sides of the transparency.


I added the golden tree on the photo to cover the faces of a couple of folks who I couldn't avoid including in the shot.


 Day 18


 A simple straightforward page showing the back of yesterday's stamped transparency pocket - love how it looks peeping through to day 16's number card. I added a strip of ribbon to the number card and doodled with my gold glitter pen on the journal card.


I hope everyone is going well with their December Dailys.  We would love to see your progress.
Hope to see your 2015 pages!
