Today’s the day I get to share the inside base of my December Daily! This weekend we had perfect picture taking weather so I took full advantage of it 🙂 There’s a ton of photos here and I’ll try to include as many details as possible, but if you have any questions please leave them in the comments section and I’ll answer them there!
While creating this album I tried to keep it as simple as possible, knowing that this is just the base and lots of embellishments can/will be added later. Some pages I did front + back, some I did not. I really wanted to go for a homemade look and tried not to get to technical or caught up in the details. For example, when cutting each page I didn’t measure. I wanted each page to be different so it would have a really layered look when finished.
Also, most of our number tags are only slightly tacked down with removable adhesive so I can put them on top of a photo or journaling that I’ll be adding later.
Please refer to this post to read about the cover, plus how I came up with the size for my album.

Page 6 + 7 | I did a tiny bit of planning here – the first weekend in December is always the week we put our tree up, so I made sure I planned for this while putting these pages together.

We have a lot of activity at our house during Christmas Eve and Christmas day. Because of this, I’ll want to include a little of everything, so I added some extra photo pages and kept the design simple, just in case it needs to be altered later 😉

That’s it for now! I haven’t decided if I’ll do the entire month or just the 25 days, so we’ll see! Also, I’ve gathered a small box of items that will be my go-to items for finishing this booklet during December. I find that keeping coordinating items in front of me while working on a project helps me stay focused and get it finished! I’ll share my box of goodies later this week! There’s lots of our other Christmas tags in it for embellishing 😉
Thanks for stopping by and letting me share this with you today!
