The Making of a Christmas Card
Just too many crazy things happened while trying to get the Chirstmas card photo this year to let it go by undocumented. The cards are made, stuffed in envelopes and addressed and now I am thinking the out takes would have made a better card. Oh well, maybe an idea for next year.
I am making this my December Daily page for today. Will post days 1-7 tomorrow ---- decided to ditch the digital and am going traditional -- I just cannot give up working with paper.

December Daily 2012
This year I am doing a digital version but also a traditional version. I guess I am afraid I won't keep up with the traditional one, so I am doing both. I am experimenting with the traditional album -- not doing day by day but event based. Since I am horribly behind in my PL album, thinking maybe the day by day thing will not happen -- figure I can abandon the digital one and won't be to big of a deal -- experimenting -- we will see. Used Cathy Z's November album design for the basis for my digital version -- this is awfully easy -- I may be digitally swayed!

December Daily Catch-Up
Finished up my December daily album today. Photos of the pages are not all that great because it was late in the day and did not want to wait until tomorrow to photo -- wanted to be finished. It was actually so easy to put toget her this year -- learned form the past that 1 - doing the foundation pages ahead of time really helps --- don't stress over the pages -- eclectic is good. Also learned that having and stash and just working from that helps too -- again -- don't stress over product, just pick something and go. Used an 8x8 album this year -- did not know if I would like it -- I do. Did have to staple pages in the album to keep the pages from popping out and put paper tabs over the staples to hide them (also helps turn the pages.) Next year I will probably go back to the rings -- but who knows -- that is 11 months away before I will start planning the 2012 album -- we'll cross that bridge when the time comes.

December Ready
This weekend I got my December Daily album ready to go. Size is 8x8 this year in a cloth red album from Michael's. The peek-through window in the front has a couple pieces of dot paper to make it more interesting and Stickles on the numbers to add a little bling. For the inside, chose the Ali Edwards numbered day overlays and combined with the Teresa Collins 6x6 paper pad -- I think it is called Christmas Home. Really liked the deep red and thought it went well with the cover. Last year my album was more whimsical -- this year a little more elegant. Will wait to embellish more when the photos are added.
