December Daily® 2023 | Story 09

Welcome to Story 09 in my 2023 December Daily® album. 

Today's foundation page was one I created for our $5 Prep Day this year (includes 10 hours of content with page ideas + inspiration). Originally I thought I would document individual colors around the house but decided instead to simply take and print photos that showed some of the different colorful things happening around here this year. 

Here's the video of how this one came together: 

Table Of Contents today was written with a Kuretake Brush Pen: 

Let's take a look at the finished page: 

On the back of the tag from Story 08 I added a daytime photo of our tree. I'm planning a longer story about the tree for an upcoming page later in the album so I loved being able to simply document colors here. 

In addition to the photo added to the tag, this page also includes a large die cut title and a vellum grid page with gold embossed numbers on top using this stamp set. 

On top of the photo of the tree I added one of the labels from the Main Kit and ran a little bit of pink embroidery floss through the top. 

As you'll see in the video, I had planned to add another color of floss to the die cut title but I didn't think that through all the way before I dove in. To cover up my mistake I added a metal number token from Tim Holtz that has the pink embroidery floss ran through the upper hole. 

To document some of the colors I went around the house and took some additional photos of colorful "moments" around the house in this season. 

I created a template in Photoshop for the images - with the white border they are 1.5 inches x 2.25 inches.
