My last post was the very first layout from my December Daily album for 2013.  Well, once I got further into the project, I changed my mind on the first page.  Sometimes you just have to start over on a project.  😉  Here is the new December 1st page.  I narrowed down the photo selection to declutter the page and added more details.  I’m MUCH happier with it!

Products (what I remember): Pagemaps sketch, Webster Pages paper, CTMH washi tape, Martha Stewart bow and present

In an effort to actually get content on my blog right now… I bring you (gasp!) unedited cell phone photos.

I finally got my Christmas cards finished, all 70 of them, so now I’m starting on my December Daily pages.

I decided to try my hand at the December Daily themed scrapbook album trend this year.  I’m so glad I did it and stuck to it for the whole month.  Well, mine is a December Daily +3 because our holiday trip ended on January 3.  Why stop 3 days short of completing the story?

I will post these a few pages at a time.  Products used: I themed the album with a 6×6 paper pad by My Mind’s Eye – the Winter Wonderland line.  I cut out all of the numbers on my Silhouette using this font. Many of the pages were created based on PageMaps sketches, but many are my own design.  All embellishments are from my vast Christmas collection and I’m way too lazy and short on time to name them all.  Ask me if you are curious about something!  These pages are all 8×8.  And at some point I’ll post the burlap album they are in.

Here goes…

Photos from the surprise baby shower my cousin Nikki threw for me.  All of my Maryland family attended and it was wonderful!

This layout is made on 8×8 inch paper.

Products used:  Patterned papers:  Cosmo Cricket (stripes), Bella Blvd (rain drops);  Flowers: Making Memories, Prima;  Stamps:  Close To My Heart;  Letters:  Prima (cream), American Crafts Thickers;  Sketch:  Sketch Support
