December Daily part1

OMG .....that is all I have to say ....this kit works wonderful for this December Daily ...it is not to late to start ...the pages go really fast because these colors just blend so well together with the holidays and everyday life ... I used the Kraft bag that Amy sent me and the little mini Doodlebug Storybook Key chain Album as part of my cover to the album that I got out of my closet ...you just never know what is in your scrapbook closet ...I added paint to the chipboard pages and then added different pages to my album ...thanks for looking!!!
This is a picture of my cover that I used the bag on the front and clustered some of the wonderful embellishments from the kit and then added some ink to the front:



 This is a close-up of the cover and this awesome ribbon, chipboard pieces, paper and stickers ....so want some more ribbon!!!
 This is what the inside cover looks like...


 One of the major trends that I saw from the December Daily albums was adding page protectors with confetti and punches ...so I cut one up and made me this cute little shaker with paper that I punched from the kit and added the fuzzy rub ons from Basic Grey!!!



 This is page one and it was the view of the day ...and mine that day was my cute December Daily ...and then I had fun altering the photo in Instagram!!!

 This is my page two and the photo challenge was favorite holiday movie ....I used the negative part of the rub on to the second page and also made a pocket the to add my journaling tags ...
