These past couple of days I made some progress with my December Daily album. Today, I'm sharing day 02, 03 and 04.

The story of day 02 was about a family get together at my parent's house:


It involved racelette, music and Crémant and the photos told the story, so I didn't do much journaling for that day.



The story of day 03 was about baking cookies with my mum, my sister and my nephew.



The story got told via the recipe of the cookies we bake every year.

 Love those grid layouts!


On the 4th of December I took a cooking class with two friends. I included the menu (inside the black cardstock) and a longer story about our friendship that I put inside of a vellum envelope.

...and here it starts:

December Daily is on!

I'm so very excited to participate in this project again this year.

During the Storytelling with December Daily class I planned out a routine for me to look for, capture and document (=write) my story each day in Evernote - and so far it's going really well. As soon as I have some time to actually sit down and work on my album, all I need to do is copy the stories from Evernote, print them, edit my photos (with A Color Story), print them at home and put everything into my album.

I won't be sharing finished pages here every day, but I'll update the blog every now and then, once I have some new pages in my album.


And this is December 1st. My story for this day is about entering the season, finding the Christmas spirit and starting to decorate at home. I tried to include both facts and feelings (as suggested in Ali's class) and I'm happy to see that "longer" stories find their way into my album.




If you've got any questions about products or processes - don't hesitate to ask in the comments.

I wish everyone a wonderful December with many stories to tell, share and document!

It's December and I finally get around to show you some of my project life catch up!

In 2016, life was busy and I spent most of my creative time on travel albums (my favourite), on "special" projects (like Week in the Life and Day in the Life) and on watercolours. Thus, I sometimes neglected my regular Project Life album. Long story short, I'm still in Project Life catch up mode.


For April, I gathered my favourite pictures of the month (mostly friends & family, dinners, home photos, flowers...) and looked for some light coloured filler cards.





April was also the month in which my blog launched! For that purpose I had made an introduction spread about me in 6x8 that I included in my regular Project Life album:



And that's it! Another month in the books. Yay for progress and thanks for reading!
