December Daily

Am caught up with my DD album. Hope I start feeling better and can make this a little happy journal next week

JYC 2011

Here are my days 2 to 4, just realized I don't have day 1 , will add it later. Up to speed so far

Sketch of the week

Shimelle is back with her weekly sketches, and I am so happy. So here is mine for this week

This is my grandson in a box that he played with for over a week and it morphed into many different things. Poor child has no toys LOL

JYC so far

Here is what I have done so far, My cover, struggled with that but am happy how it looks, The page on the right will be my Manifesto, and the one on the left is one from the cropping weekend with Shimelle with the pocket in it and my numbers are all done too. I am useing mostly the Simple Stories, 25 days of Christmas line and just Kraft CS

I managed to finish this today when I got these two pictures of my grandson, his dad took him to Lowe's today and he made a Santa sleigh so it was a good fit with the LO just changed out a few things

Here is my take on Shimelle's Challenge, Will add a photo and journaling when I get some Christmas pictures of the kids

Shimelle's Challenge Weekend

This was a Woven Paper Challenge so I made a card with the scraps from the Decorate a Christmas Window challenge

Shimelle's Weekend challenge

This challenge was to prepare a pocket on a LO so I did one for my JYC, may use this for Christmas day or I can change out the card for another day

Pick a Size

Another Challenge this weekend was to Choose a Size for our JYC albums this year. I have my favorite 8x8 AC 3 ring binder album and I bought the Simple Stories Christmas line and I am ready to go, I even cut some Kraft card stock for my base. I like this album because I do different size LO and they all fit in this album

Shimelle's Scrapbook Challeng

I have been adding to my swag all week and love the way it looks now

Shimelle is haveing a scrapbook challenge on her blog this weekend And there was a challenge to Decorate a Window. Well I don't have a window like that but love this idea so I hung it on the door to my scrap room. Put my three grandchildren on the tags in the middle. So my first Christmas decoration is up LOL

Favorite Pumpkins

I got this weeks Starting point challenge done yesterday.

Haven't done much with Shimelle's class the past few days because I got into Ali Edwards, December Daily album. I have it all done and ready to go now and am happy how it looks. I have also started on Shimelle's JYC album also,( that is last years link, this years is not up yet)just waiting for my order to get here with a few things I ordered for it. Maybe while I am waiting I will do a few of the LO from last weeks Pretty Paper class

This is my DD cover and how the inside pages look

4 more Lay Outs

Here are three Lay Outs and one card that I did for Shimelle's class this week i am really enjoying this class and I now I need to get all these LO put in their albums

Pretty Paper Party

These are the first too LO I have done for Shimelle's Class, Pretty Paper Party. So far I love it and have done a LO a day so I am scrapping

Madi's Pumpkin

Here is my first LO for Shimelle's new class i just realized there is no title on this LO so I guess that is OK LOL

What kind of paper person I am

I am not really sure what kind I am but reading the prompt this morning and looking at my stash I have to say I am what Shimelle calls "The Collection Packer" The first Photo is for my JYC and yes I bought the whole line of 'Simple Stories 25 days of Christmas" As soon as I saw it I knew I had to have it. Then Shimelle was working with American Crafts Daydreams collection so I headed right over to 2 peas and bought that whole collection and the same with the pad of Colorbok Parisian Style that I found in WalMart. Maybe I just feel safer if I know everything matches LOL

Special Party

Shimelle has a new class starting on October 17th, can't wait to start this one

Starting Point LO

Here is mine for Shimelle's Starting Point for this week

Starting Point

Here is my LO for this weeks Starting Point Challenge, yes I painted on my LO
