December Daily {Days Eight & Nine}

Well, it was bound to happen eventually. I slacked off. Thursday was rainy and miserable and I was totally uninspired. That’s my excuse. I picked up yesterday and made two pages, though, so that’s something.

December Daily {Day Seven}

Not feeling it today, but I haven’t missed one yet,  so I’m faking my enthusiasm.

December Daily {Day Six}

Still going strong, although I had to go through my pictures today to find what this page was going to be about. A quick simple one about trimming the Christmas tree.

December Daily {Day Five}

I hadn’t planned this as one of my days, but sometimes the best stories aren’t planned. Christmas cards are one of my things. I send them out the first week of December – I’m usually ready to mail on December 1. I take care of it all on my own. This year I decided to let the kids help and we had such a blast talking about who all the people we were sending cards too. I think we ended up starting a new tradition.

December Daily {Day Four}

Yesterday was our annual trek to the local tree farm to chop down an evergreen which allows the tree farm to plant more for the next year. The benefit of fresh Christmas trees is one of my soapboxes, so I’ll try not go on too much and just get to the page.

I’m finding sticking to one kit for an entire album a bit of a challenge. I love colors in my layouts, so this is a challenge in many ways to me. Actually, the only thing that came from the Persnickety Prints kit is the tree. Everything else is just color backgrounds and a number brush. I’m starting to question why I buy kits when I tend to only use the papers. I might be switching to just buying paper packs.

I’m not planning to do two page spreads for most layouts, but this one had so many pictures to go with it and I had a lot to say, so it couldn’t be limited to just one page.

December Daily {Day Three}

So far, so good. I’m also sort of making it a Project 365 (or 31 or 25 or whatever) by taking a photo every day.

This features a ChrissyW template from March, the Persnickety Prints Vintage Christmas free kit, and now (I had a change of heart on the tags – they just didn’t fit my style) these 31 days date stamps.

December Daily {Day Two}

Look at me, all keeping up with a project. This won’t last long, I promise.

Same products as yesterday, plus a free template from Gennifer Bursett.
