December Daily is finished!! (life update)


Well, look at me on the internet again!!  LOL

I shared my notes for my December Daily album, but didn't really share any of the work in progress pages like I had planned.  

Tonight after I got home from my monthly scrapbooking gathering, I decided it was time!
Time to get the last few pages done and get DD 2018 in the book.  

So here is a glimpse at the final project.  I used a mini album pattern from CLOSE TO MY HEART, but didn't use their paper.  I have so much Christmas paper in the wings (I might have a problem) I promised myself a 'NO SPEND" album.  This is the result.  

(and I'm proud to say, I stuck to NO SPEND and it was a stash buster album!!)


You will see the metal tags that I fell in LOVE with years ago, but NEVER used.  I have no idea what I had originally planned on using them for, but they are my consistent date journaling through out this album. 







I was flipping through taking photos for this post, and realized I haven't don't the journaling for the 2CUT CHRISTMAS PARTY.  That will be done by the end of the week!  I loved FINISHED!


Some of the pictures in my album are from Pinterest, some from the internet, and most are photos I took.  But my goal was to tell the stories. What was going on what I felt.  the whole story.  I still didn't do it as well as ALI EDWARDS does it, but practice practice practice!!


I made sure and included the hard stories.  
The memories of where my nephew Tyler is at in his healing is so important!





I got lots of journaling in.  



Sometimes there really wasn't a story.  
Notice that the photo on the right was cut in half and split into 2 pockets.





Used up some wooden words that have been in may stash for awhile.  
I love them, but they need to be used!






My favorite page might be the last one!  
(Sis might not think so.)

Again, I will try to be here more frequently.  
Between my job, my fun, and my family life is crazy!  
I appreciate you taking time to check in with me.  

Is your December scrapped?
