December Daily Album

Good morning! It is time to open another window on the Whiff of Joy advent calendar! If you discover which designer is hosting today's prize you have a chance to win the stamp used on their card.

Katharina, Alice, Colleen, Gio, Ingrid, Jane, Jane Millard, Jeanette, Lori, Sandie, Sonja, Tutorialblog Happy Thursday and Happy December 1st. I finally have all the pages and components of my December Daily photographed and ready to show you. I think I may have gone a little over-board! A couple of the panels (for days 2 & 15) will need to remain secret as they will be shown later this month….perhaps with a prize or two involved :)
This post is really photo heavy but I figured I would show you it all at once…I didn’t want to make you wait any longer. Hopefully as the month progresses and I add my personal photos to the album, I will have the time to share that with you as well. Okay…..here we go:

I covered my chipboard album with gesso, warm white acrylic paint and then a layer of matt mod-podge to protect it. The word “december” is from a Kerri Bradford cutting file, the numbers were in the Studio Calico kit as were the brad and snowflake (got that idea from Nichol Magourik) the frame is from SU! and I sprayed it with Mr Huey Hollyberry mist and added glitter glue to it ( I did the same with the title)

This will be my cover page. I will be adding another frame and then some text.

This chipboard calendar was also in the Studio Calico kit. I added the numbers with all old Hero Arts number stamp set and Jenny Bowlin Cough Syrup ink. I also added some stamped test along the bottom from an Ali Edwards Technique Tuesday stamp set.
Here are the pages and inserts. You can click on any picture and it will enlarge for you  :) I added Hambly transparencies which I cut to fit and punched holes into. The die cuts are all from Kerri Bradford Kits, the stamps are from Whiff of Joy, Magnolia and Tickled Pink Stamps. Most accessories are from the Studio Calico kit and the rest is stash. I think I outline a lot of that in my intro video which you can find ~ here~


As you can see, I didn’t always use the same style to date my pages, I like that there are different styles and I think it makes if more fun to have to hunt a little for the date. I love uniform, but once in a while a little change is perfect :)
