December Daily

This is the first year I’m doing  December Daily.   

This is a scrapbooking project that you create a scrapbook page or two for each day in December.

I chose a quick and easy project.  I am using digital templates from a class at Scrapaneers.  The class is Discover December by Kelly Sill.  There are more complicated digital classes available.  A lot of people make their pages out of paper and embellishments.   You can find daily lists for ideas at Pinterest.    I get a daily email with a photo prompt through the class I am taking.

I chose this digital class because I am so busy and don’t have hours to spend every day taking photo’s and putting a page together.  The beauty of using a premade template is that I can change paper and add embellishments if I choose.  What a fun what to remember December and spark a little bit of Christmas Joy.

Day 1 - Selfie

 

Day 2 – Holiday Color

Day 3 – Front door or porch

 

Day 4 - Joy

 

 

Enjoy!

 

Story of My Life

Just Me

I’ve been busy creating this digital page this evening.  It’s from the kit Today 2.0 over at The Sweete Shoppe.  They’re having a big 7th anniversary sale this weekend.  I did a bunch of things on this page.  I edited the color photo to black and white, added a bunch of layers of embellishing, used a Designer Digitals grunge alphabet brush for some of the text, cut some little strips for the word text, added an acrylic alpha for ‘Just Me’, and some shadowing.  I really need to find more time to do digital pages. I really like the challenge and how they turn out.  This page has 32 layers. Do you digi scrap?

Alpha fun…

During the Christmas bazaar season my daughter in law found an alpha hanging she wanted to add to my granddaughter Kendall’s Christmas list.  I told her I was pretty sure I could make something similar.   I used my Photoshop Elements 10 and created this.   I saved each image on my flash drive, took it down to Office Depot and had them print on cardstock.  I then cut out each image, one by one.    I bought a 12x24 canvas at Hobby Lobby and painted it with my American acrylic paint, Sable Brown.    Kendall’s room is in shades of pinks and browns.  I decided instead of painting the background a shade of pink to paint it a shade of brown.

I measured and spaced the images and attached with Mod Podge.  Once they were secured and dry, I painted Mod Podge over the entire project to finish it off.

I added a little extra bling to it; various sized rhinestones.

  

 

I added a pretty pink silk ribbon for hanging and a brown bow to finish it off.

Making Magical Memories

Now that the holidays are over, it’s time to get those photo’s out and make something with them.   The Grandkids had a lot of fun playing Hungry Hungry Hippo’s.  It was so cute seeing them so excited hitting the hippo’s so that it’s mouth would open and gobble up the marbles.  Of course when Carter got the special colored marble it was the best thing in the world because he was the WINNER!
