December Daily 2009 : Day 18, Day 19
Tags:DAY EIGHTEEN
One of Simon's favorite days at school happened last Friday: PJ's and a movie. I tucked the handout inside the page protector for Day 18.
On the back I adhered a piece of left-over wrapping paper I am using this year and the inside of a card that Simon brought home from school. Machine stitching goes around the outside edge. Letter stickers from Little Yellow Bicycle.
The back of the day before (Day 17) looks like this:

DAY NINETEEN
On Saturday we finally got our tree. It was a great little adventure. The biggest memory of the day is that Simon picked out the tree all by himself, insisting this was it.
For this day I wanted to include a few more photos so I created a fold-out section and added it on to the original background. Here's the spread open to the inside (each panel holds a 5.5 inch x 8 inch photo):
Here's a few scans of the inside panels:
And to the other side (missing the last photo because my printer ran out of ink):
The journaling documents our adventure selecting the tree and then the process of decorating. The cute little red accent is from Pixie Petals. The word stickers are old Wordfetti from Making Memories.

Thanks for responding, Monica.
Unfortunately, We don't have an Office Depot around here (nearest is 70 miles round trip), but they do have them on their website (which didn't show up when I googled them. But, they have a $9.95 small handling fee and shipping is not inexpensive.
It never occurred to me that they might be difficult to find! Live and learn.

Utterly stunning. You tell us how you did it, but I still don't know how you did it (the creative genius part, I mean). :-)

Ali, I really like the square format pages. Where did you find page protectors in this size? And did you have to cut your own cardstock to make the pages? Thank you!

Hi Sandra - this was an album that was available back in 2009. It included the page protectors pages. This album was from Prima - you can read about it here: http://aliedwards.com/2009/11/december-daily-foundation-pages-cover-days-1-12.html
