Finally I am done with my December Daily. Well kind of.
I still have 2 photos to print then add. Otherwise my DD is sitting on the coffee table till I put it away for next year.
Here is my original post on how I attempted this process.
I did really well working on the book for the first 2 weeks of December.
Here and here are my first 2 post of my DD
Then the final count down of Christmas began and I lost all interest.
My approach to the project did change once I started.
After buying a premade book {which I loved} I started adding my own pages.
I incorporated a lot of junk mail that came during the month.
I didn’t always have a photo or story to tell, so I winged it.
After Christmas was over I went to Staples, and saw Martha Stewart and Avery had new products.
I kept eyeing the new stuff trying to think how I could use it.
I stated to wrap up my DD, and I wasn’t really feeling it.
I went out and bought some of this new product and this is what I came up with.
I got this little red 3 ring binder from staples. The stretchy band was from packing on a Starbucks gift.
Side view of the spine, I added the metal label holder, and used Ali Edwards stamps
Front page {the needlepoint Dec 25 my aunt made}
As you can see I bought page protectors for the book
and trimmed my pages to fit {a few were larger then the sleeves}
Some pages were smaller and I did what I could to adapt them.
The little scrap on the right was a postcard I had picked up and added
Some pages were smaller and I did what I could to adapt them.
You can see the previous holes that were punched. Since this project got redesigned at the last minute, I am gonna accept it.
Lots of pages got trimmed down lots of random pages got added
I got these emails as a count down to Christmas day; I knew I wanted to add them to my book
Yes this page is upside down, but I loved the image and it was my mistake, I am embracing it!
I know these are not the best pictures, but hey I am not perfect why should my photos be?
Are your December projects all wrapped up?
