December Daily 2016: Complete Album


December Daily is a wonderful holiday project.  This is the second year in a row that I have completed this mini album.  The projects encourages you to document a story or memory per day during the holiday season.  The story does not need to be holiday related.  Many are for me, but I also document day to day stuff like morning routines, nights we did not cook dinner, stories from dog walks and work days.  It amazing to look back on these pages and remember where we were at in life and what we were up too.


I kept with a red, black and kraft color theme throughout my entire mini album.  I loved these colors together.


This year's holiday season started off slow, so I want to document what was around my house that was either new or decorations and the following day I documented my weekday routine.  The start of my LuLaRoe business was occurring simultaneously.


Part of December Daily for me is to document the good joyful times as well as the sad troublesome times as well.  My story on the 5th, is getting laid off from my job.  I kept the story in order to look back on it next year and remember how far I've come.



Our holiday photo shoot was late, but I still managed to get cards made and delivered in time for Christmas.



My sister visited for 10 days and it was an amazing time.  We took tons of photos to celebrate the holiday as well has hundreds of photos for my LuLaRoe business.  We loved using the self timer on my camera to get group photos.



My rescue dog, Kobe, clicked completely this holiday season and follows me around like a duckling.  Love that feeling having him in our family.



Enjoyed the best lunch with my girlfriend from Vegas, who happens to be a food blogger and ate to much food at BURGER STOP in Coconut Creek.



Christmas is always spent with family and had way to many pictures to include.  I take my DD to the end of the month, so i document all the way til New Years Eve.



It is a great project and I hope everyone has the strength to complete it til the end.  Happy documenting ladies!


Today// SpiegelMom Scraps DT



Hello my wonderful scrapbooking ladies!  I have a colorful layout for today featuring products from the SpiegelMom Scraps shop.  The shop carries Shimmerz Paints, dollies, cork pieces and tons of sequins to choose from.  Today I am using a little bit of everything.  I am scrapping a photo of my mother and I during Thanksgiving in front of this large painting I have in my dining room that we made together.



I started out with a floral 3D die cut I downloaded from a fellow scrapper.  I backed the cut file on bright blue colored card stock to play up the vibrant color in the photo.  I then took 'Jeni B Bleu' mists from Shimmerz and splattered a few of the flowers for some more color on the white.



I used my last gold dollie from the shop for this layout under a print and cut file from the lovely Wilna Furtenberg sitting on my desk.  Anything with florals and colors I love so I started adding more clustered around it.  Florals and chip board pieces from Maggie Holmes Open Book collection and Confetti.



My title is from a phrase thicker pack and I wanted it to be gold to bring out the detail of the dollie as well.  Once I liked the cluster I added my extra details of heart shaped cork elements and of course sequins from A Mermaids Tale.  Thank you so much for joining me.  If you'd like to make a purchase at the Spiegelmom Scraps shop use code 'Evi15' for a discount at checkout.
