December Daily® 2022 | Story 11

Welcome to Story 11 in my 2022 December Daily® project. 

Today's story documents my Book Club's annual "favorite things" Christmas gathering. 

Let's dive into the video: 

Here are a look via images + additional details: 

The foundation for today's story is the really fun gold foil framed page from the 10x8 paper pack. 

This is a great foundation for multiple photos, multiple journaling blocks, maybe home for your collection of wrapping paper, etc. I didn't have enough photos from our gathering which ended up being just fine as I liked mixing in the embellishments and the chipboard number. 

Before I dove in to cropping + printing my photos I measured out the inside of the boxes (these aren't exact but close enough for me). 

As I was printing the photos I marked off which ones I had used. 

In addition to my photos I added a Santa sticker from the Main Kit + a "book club xmas" icon run through my Minc machine using gold foil, a "test" version of the stars I added to my photo in story 02, and two pieces of journaling printed on transparency and attached using embroidery floss. 

You can download the "Book Club Xmas" word art here.

I love using scrap pieces of stuff that end up on my table during December - adding on that piece of vellum that I stitched the red star on vs. just throwing it away made me super happy! 

All photos were adhered with foam tape to pop them up off the foundation. 

Such a fun way to document our gathering!

    My book club also did a favorite things exchange this year, at my suggestion after hearing you mention it during Prep Day! It was SO much fun, and I’m so excited to use this free element to tell the story in my album! Thank you for both the idea and the freebie!!

    I love this idea. Did you print the journaling on vellum or regular paper?
