Winter

Here we go again!

Well, last year I had the best intentions for sticking with my December Daily but stopped when I dropped  my Instax Camera in NYC a third of the way through the month. I could have kept going but I wanted to use just the Instax pics for the album and I was super bummed. I liked the look and I liked that it was instant so there is no excuse not to keep up since I didn’t have to worry about printing. Well, then I went and broke the camera and hit a road block. I might go back and just print out pics for the rest of the month incluing the srory about breaking my camera- hense the switch in picture styles, which will forever drive me crazy.

So I got another Instax and have let to break it so the month is going along smoothly. Well, I did drop it at our Christmas Party this past thursday and it’s still kicking so here’s hoping it lasts for the rest of the month and beyond. (But really, what the hell is wrong with me cropping cameras?!) I really love the quirky camera and the pictures from it so I love having the album of just these pictures.

I am trying to keep things pretty simple with my December Daily by keeping the embellishments minimal. I purchased the DecDaily kit that Kelly Purkey created so I am using all of the papers in the kit, plus a few other solids since I want to continue on past xmas for the whole month. Her kit inlcuded a stamp set, some buttons (2012 on the cover), gold doilies and some alpha stickers. To that I am using lots of washi and some of other embellishments I keep around for winter themed scrapbooking.

This page is boring to me, maybe I’ll add to it or maybe I’ll forget about it. ha

I really am jealous of the people that have really beautiful December Daily albums that are loaded with photos, notes, embellishments, and all that jazz but I have to just enjoy that mine is all mine and I am doing things my way, at my pace. If I were to try to tackle more I wouldn’t be done with page 1 so I am savorying that I am 1 third of the way through and I am still enthuastic about it.

I can’t wait to keep going through the rest of the month. I am really enjoying my December Daily photos and the album. So much fun!
