DECEMBER DAILY CONTINUED

Week Two and Flash Challenges



This week those of us participating in the December Daily Inspiration Group, were issued a challenge to use clear items, a stamped sentiment, and some journaling. I did all on one page, with a few photos of my grandchildren, and their advent calendar gifts for days 3 and 4.


I also put their day 1 and 2 photos in my December Daily. It is a simple page to really just highlight the pictures. I'm a little behind with the photos of them with their gifts. They have busy lives, and photo taking is not always a priority.


The next challenge was a 48 hour flash challenge. We were to color in an image with markers, pencils, ink, pens, etc. I hope you will love the house mouse stamp I used, as much as I do.


The support from all of the ladies and gentlemen in this group has helped me stay on track. Once December is over I will have a lovely keepsake instead of a daunting pile of photos, and an empty book.

It isn't always easy to keep up with, but I know I will appreciate that I made the effort to just "do it!"

DECEMBER DAILY ~ A FEW MORE PAGES

Documenting our December

This has been a busy week  but I was able to take a few pictures. Thanks to my mother's new Selphy printer (thanks for letting me borrow Mom) I quickly printed those pictures while sitting in my own craft room. This does help with my printing procrastination problem.

I am trying to keep up as the month progresses and truly have something to document daily. This is a little easier with photos of my grandchildren.  Message to my eldest  daughter: "Send more pictures!"
  
Several YouTubers are also documenting their December Dailies, and some are offering challenges and prompts, for inspiration. I think I would have some pictures, and an empty book, staring at both, hoping for some ideas, if it weren't for all of their great ideas.

I have really enjoyed seeing how different each December Daily is. I hope after you watch my video, you will check out a few other videos, and be motivated to Document your December.

Christmas 2014 ~ December Daily

Holiday Happenings Crush Book Plans

I have joined a fun group on YouTube called "December Daily Inspirations." I'm hoping I will be able to keep up with plans to document every day of December. So far I have decorated the front and inside cover, of my Holiday Happenings Crush Book, and decorated a tag.

I made a video showing the products I've used so far. Since everyone in the group is sharing their progress, there will be plenty of inspiration. If you are interested in following along and documenting your own holiday happenings, you should check out Sue's YouTube channel, shiles728. I've added the information about her channel in my video explanation.


I am including links to all of the Close to My Heart items used. Simply click on any of the items you are interested in.


Thanks so much for watching. Let me know your plans for documenting your holiday season.
