Cheers to creating gifts from the heart this holiday season!
For my project I made a December Daily. This could be a great gift for a Grandma or a family member that lives far away. This is my first year doing a December Daily!!
In the cover I used a corrugated 12x12 paper from Canvas Corp, Recollections Paper and a Peachy Keen Stamps Elf.
To color the Elf I used Tombow Dual Brush Pens and Clearsnap Smooch. I also added some ART Glitter on his hat. The snowflake has Clearsnap Winter Frost Glitter and twine on the button is from The Twinery. The snowflakes next to the elf are from Hampton Arts.
The label is a stamp from Peachy Keen, the flower is from Momenta and the alphas are from Sticko.
This is actually a pocket page, you may understand the Daily better if you watch the video I made.
Here is a small tutorial on this pocket page:
Back to the mini album.
I made the envelope on the right with K & Company paper and the Martha Stewart Scoreboard.
If you wish to see the video to understand some of the pages you can watch it here
I hope you enjoyed my December Daily!!
I can't wait to fill it with memories!!
Your next stop is Gini Williams Cagle from Hampton Art
