Welcome to December Daily™ 2013 | Day Fifteen.
Can you guys believe how fast this month is flying by?
Today for me was all about wrapping. I don't mind wrapping I just really don't like taking care of it at the last minute so I was pretty darn happy to carve out some time for it today. Tonight I'm heading out on a movie date after getting this post all ready to go (we saw the Hunger Games movie last week and tonight we're going to see Dallas Buyers Club).
How are things going for you and this project? I've found a simple rhythm for myself that will work until all our family gets together at the end of this week. At that point I might have to adjust my posting schedule a bit to be able to fully embrace my time with them.
Here's a look at my Day Fifteen:
That green cast at the bottom of this photo? That would be my green jeans - yes, very festive around here.
To highlight my topic today I added the word "wrap" using wood veneer letters from the Studio Calico kit.
I've gotten quite a few questions recently about what printer I'm using. For all my 4x6 and smaller images I'm using an Epson PictureMate Show. I've had it for a couple years now and I use it for all my Project Life photos. I seriously love it and just bought one for Katie for Christmas to have at her house.
I use it connected to my main computer in my office and print photos every couple of days for Project Life when I'm on top of it.
A 3x4 journal card tells the story of today next to a transparent merry and bright card.
I added a label (printable from the Studio Calico kit) + a gold star right on top of the photo to cover up a special present.
I stitched a bit of the green ribbon along the bottom of the journal card and adhered a portion of the 15 gold clip along the top.
Happy Monday!

hi Ali!! Love your wrapping and the photo and the little tag to Simon...and....and....and!! Quick question. What kind of photo paper do you use to print off your photos at home and do you think it really matters with the photo paper you use and the quality of the photo if you choose to print at home? Just wonder. Wow!!! Does that even make sense? I am SO tired right now and I think it is only 9PM, but the days are long with so much to do and just not accomplishing much as I would like in the day. Sad to say, but I can't even find the time to work on my DD!! But can't wait to see your entry every day. That is the very first thing that I do when I get up!! LOVE IT!!! THANKS!!

I use photo paper from Epson that's designed for my printer (I think it's Epson glossy photo paper - it comes bundled together with the ink for the Epson Picturemate Printer). I really like the quality and have been happy with it for the last two or so years now.
