Congratulations your album looks awesome! Thankyou for posting the pages throughout the month, I've loved following the month with you. I am definitely going to try that next year- it is such a great idea. Happy New Year Ali!

Ali this album is so amazing & inspiring, it is one my most favorite albums I have seen I just love that it is so many different sizes, textures etc, & that it all works together so beautifully, Well done & Happy happy new year to you all.

i agree with the other posts...i have really enjoyed looking every day for your next day completed in this mini album!!!

Thank you Ali for the inspiration! Where did you find the poinsetta flower? I'm definitely doing an album like this next year!
Happy New Year (and Go Beavers!).

Your album turned out great and I think I'll attempt to do one next year...may actually have a sepcial event as the reason for doing it.
Great job.

Yes, you did it, Ali! And you did a beautiful job of it...the December Daily Album turned out SO COOL! I wish I had started my own along with you-next year for sure...thanks for all your inspiration!

Thanks for your inspiration my friend. And some encouragement for those of you who are thinking about it for next year, I am currently doing mine now - as I type - and I love it. I looked through all of my photos today from Christmas - chose the ones for each day in the album (although some days don't have photos and Ali says 'that's okay' :)and sent them to 1 hour at Walmart. I hit a great after Christmas sale at Ben Franklin crafts (in Springfield, all Christmas s/b products are on sale for 70% off(including a huge supply of Christmas stamps) and the rest of the s/b supplies are on sale for 20% off) I didn't have an album to use, so I found an old hard back music book at the thrift store for $1.50 and I'm adhearing straight to the pages. Just so happens that this book has 25 pages ! How perfect is that. So, be encouraged. Even if you don't start one this year - the supplies are on sale ! You can't beat that and you're hubby can't complain. Ali - I can't wait to show you. Now to come up with an idea for next year ! Happy New Year.

this album is absolutely fabulous!!!

It truly was wonderful to see you documenting your month - the whole process - the ideas you used (and materials)...very inspiring.
Thanks for sharing it all Truly beautiful!!!
Peace--Ellie

Thank you for sharing your Christmas with us! What a great feeling to have it all done...t is fabulous!
Have a happy new year and looking forward to lots of fun memories we'll create in 2008!

Fabulous Ali--- I am so doing that next year! Thanks, also, for the link to making photo collages. With all the Christmas pics, I think 2X2 is the way to go!

Love love love it! What a gorgeous project. I have to say that I totally admire your flickr photo galleries. Happy 2008! Can't wait to see more eye candy from you coming our way.

It's such a wonderful record of such a busy time of year. What at treasure it will be look at once again NEXT December. So beautiful and very inspiring - well done, Ali! And Happy New Year to you!!!

Very cool! Thanks for sharing! I looked forward to each new entry!

Beautiful album, Ali! This has been one of my favorite holiday projects. Can't wait to see what you have planned for 2008!

The album is so lovely! I definitely want to make one next year. You inspire me, girl. Congrats on completing it!

I used big huge labs to make a mosaic for my christmas card this year-25 photos in all. it turned out great!

Ali, the book is outstanding. Just love it. Such a family treasure.
I have been interested in creating the Flickr mosaic since the first time I saw it on your blog a long time ago. I had extra time on my hands yesterday (unusual) and finally used Big Huge Labs to make one off Flickr favs. It was so easy, and fun.
Happy New Year.

This is awesome! What a terrific memory and process. You make it all look so easy and when you put it together ahead of time and then fill in it really is.
Thanks for the inspiration and I look forward to your fresh and fun ideas this
next year.
By the way, I bought your calendar last year and have enjoyed looking at it at my office. Loved all the inspiration, its especially helpful to be reminded to embrace imperfection and its all ok while I am struggling with something at work. It puts things in perspective and reminds me to let my creative side out there too. Please considering doing another one perhaps for 2009.
happy new year!
