Considering that I haven't done this type of project for three years, I am super hopped up on the topic this year!
The December Daily project... a lovely idea created by scrapbooker Ali Edwards as a means to document her month of December. As usual, we are all super busy and preoccupied during the holiday season. This project is a way to take a moment to step back, breathe, and remember the traditions and memories while you are making them. Read Ali's blog HERE.
This book was created using the following supply list:
From Heidi Swapp:
o Memory Files Scrapbook Kit
o Christmas Ephemera Pack
o Silver Color Magic tags
o Embossed Frame Embellishments
o Color Magic Chipboard Alphabet
o Color Shine: Sweet Cherry, Mustard, Citron, Navy & Bronzer
From Scrapbook Island:
o Trims
o large black tags
o book rings
From Bazzill Basics
o White orange peel cardstock
Other:
o twine
o Scotch Quick Dry adhesive
o 4” doily
o Scrapbook Adhesive foam squares
o sequins
One of my favorite things to add to a mini album is a glassine bag filled with sequins and confetti - then sewn shut.
I had fun mixing Heidi Swapp Color Shine colors to get the green I was looking for and more. I mixed Navy with Citron, and mixed Sweet Cherry with the tiniest bit of bronze to darken it up.
I'm just realizing that I also used the Christmas themed pack of Heidi Swapp banners. Those are great to cut up and layer :)
This project was made for the Scrapbook Island Design Team. Thanks, Laurie for another amazing box of goodies to create with!!
Thank you for taking a look at my project. I hope you are inspired to create a little December journal of your own. Mostly, I pray that you are able to take time this holiday season to sit back and have moments of gratitude for God's mind-blowingly extravagant gifts of grace and mercy in Jesus.
Much love,
Stacey
