December Memories

 
I can't believe it is Sunday night already! This weekend was a fun filled holiday weekend spent with my funny and beautiful 10 year old daughter.
We shopped.
We drank Starbucks hot chocolate.
We decorated the tree.
We ate See's candy.
We danced to Christmas tunes.
We giggled. A lot.
 We also started our December Dailies by the fire while listening to Christmas music and the sound of rain and wind.
 
Pure Perfection.
 
Here are some pictures of my December Daily Daybook.
I hope you enjoy the pictures. There are many! lol
 

 

My cover is an overlay I picked up at a Scrapbook Convention so I'm not sure who makes it. I embellished it with AC Thickers and Glitz & Glitter Stickers. I hand sewed the binding using some red embroidery string I had laying around the house.

The paper used is an assortment of Christmas themed papers by Echo Park, SEI, and Basic Grey.
These are just a few of my favorite pages. There are enough pages to take me all the way to New Year's Eve.


I decided not to embellish or number the pages ahead of time. This will allow me more freedom day to day. You never know if you might need more space for a 2 page spread! The way I take pictures, some days may turn into a 3 page spread! :)
 







Love Christmas Owls.





When I hand sew my daybooks I always use an envelope to hide the inside stitching. I just unseal an envelope and place it in the center of the book, sew, and then re-glue the envelope! Easy Peasy!





 
Thanks for looking! I will be back soon to show you my first few days in the book!
Hugs!
