December Daily® 2015 | Day Thirteen

Welcome to  December Daily® 2015 | Day 13. 

Today I skipped the words and went with packaging and bits of paper collected around my house. It's a fun way to use the 2 inch x 2 inch pockets that tells it's own story via the images and words on the pieces of paper and packaging. 

This is a good day to remind you again that this album is not measured by any single day or any single story. It's the sum of all of them together that make it meaningful. 

Here's a look at Day 13 from my  foundation pages post

Remember that I ended up moving the Day 12 to a full-page and moved Day 13 to the 12-pocket page. 

Here's how it looks in the album: 

One of my favorite things about this idea is looking for things to include. Consider receipts, packaging, things you read (like a devotional), tape (Amazon Prime tape), something you've been working on (I often look in my waste basket and/or recycling in my office to see if there's something to include), envelopes, magazines, catalogs, handwritten notes, etc. In the video I also mention it would be fun to keep little scraps of wrapping paper from presents received. I might end up adding that at the end of the album.

    What a great idea! And the looking in the trash tip to see what you've been up to is both hilarious and totally helpful!

    I really like this idea. I don't always get a picture taken or have a story to tell. But I have already collected a group of papers!

    Love this! I am doing 4x6 album. Think I'll cut up a 2x2 page protector I have left over from WITL.

    I love these 12 pocket pages. For the last few years at the back of this album i add in an extra few pages with scrap pieces of all the different wrapping papers from gifts my family recieve alone with the gift tags. Its great to see how the paper changes from year to year.

    I made my own 2x2 with my Fuse. Would be great if a pocket page could be created for the 4x6 albums in the future. Thanks :)
