December Daily 2009 : Days Four, Five, & Six

Tags:

One of my observations this year is that life seems to be just a tad-bit busier than in the past. Adding another little person into the mix makes things more full, more wonderful, and more complicated all in the same instant. It is so, so fun to see her face in this album. 


DAY FOUR

Here's a scan:

SUPPLIESAE Handdrawn Holiday Word Art; Prima Glittered Star Vine (I just pulled them off and stapled them to the top of the page protector); Fiskars Scallop Border Punch


Here's what I did on the back:

I adhered a sheet from a magazine (I think it was Martha) to the back of the photo. On top of the santas I included a handwritten memory of how when I was a kid during December when we would drive around at night I always looked out the window up in the sky to see if I could see Santa. Even when I knew...


Here's the before shot:

DAY FIVE

SUPPLIES : AE 25 Days of December Overlay; K&Company Gold Embossed Pattern Paper (I found this at Michael's a few months ago); Gold foil from a Jenni Bowlin kit


Day Five pretty much talks about how I worked all day on Saturday and how much I am looking forward to transforming our home for the holidays.

DAY SIX

Chris just came in here and looked at this photo and said, "this is so them."


For the main page I adhered the large photo onto the tabbed kraft page (see the "before" image below) and used a craft knife to trim the excess along the edge. Before printing the enlarged photo I added the word art and cut ups and after printing I added the white line, the #6, and one more word sticker. 


The strip of photos on the opposite page was gathered together in Photoshop using Katie's Photobooth Frames. 


Here's a close-up on the second page:
