December Daily® 2023 | Story 13

Welcome to Story 13 in my 2023 December Daily® album.

One of the stories I knew I wanted to tell in my album this year was about the collage ornaments I created over the last few months. I decided to go very big with a photo of all of them hanging together and paired that with the 2x2 collage page I made with some of the leftovers.

Posts about my collage ornaments can be found here and here and here.

A post about my collaged page with the squares can be found here.

Here's today's video:

Here's a look at my page via photos:

The outside of my enlarged flip-up photo is a page of 2 inch x 2 inch squares. On top of that I added one of the pocket ornaments from the Main Kit along with two additional hanging tags. One has my collage ornament title and the other is one of the ornaments cut from the transparent pattern paper with fabric numbers added on top. I also tucked a couple more circles inside the ornament pocket.

That little "holiday magic" circle is from a past December Daily® collection.

Along the bottom of the page I added an Avery Index Tab with the "pull tab to see more photos" stamp from this stamp set.

When you fold the page open it reveals a 4 inch x 6 inch photo that I'd taken when I first started working on the ornaments which is adhered back to back to my journaling card.

I added the journaling directly to this card by running it through my Epson PictureMate PM400 printer.

When you lift it up here's what you see on the inside. The photo is 10 inches x 16.25 inches. I cut it about 8.25 inches and used a piece of paper to create the flip up (see the video for details). I considered adding journaling to my photo but am really happy with it just being on the journal card as a separate page that is tucked inside the flip up.

That's what it looks like laying on my work table.

I used our plastic page attachers to add these pages to my album. Hoping those come back in stock soon - they are so useful!

I love how this page turned out.
