December Daily 2011 - Days 1-7

Hi there!  I've actually been making time each night to work on my December Daily.  What's really helping is that I pulled lots of things from my stash and put it with the Studio Calico kit that I got for it and I keep it all together. That's all I'm allowed to use!  Since the pages are small, it's easy for me to bust out the days' page quickly.  Here's my progress so far:

Our Santa visit - we did this on Black Friday.  We were visiting family, so the two girls on the outsides are mine.  The boy is my nephew and the girl holding Layla is my sister-in-law.  Layla's smile just warms my heart and makes me laugh.  Not to mention Caylan's cheesiest of the cheese smile!

Starbucks - no explanation needed.  The kraft image is from a giftcard that someone gave me.

Georgia Bulldogs - we lost, but whatever.

Used an entire package of snowflakes that I've had for YEARS!

Saw this idea on Pinterest and loved it!  I used a few grid journal spots from Project Life and I'll put the return address from our Christmas cards we receive this year.  I may also collect the different stamps people use on one of them.

This is the front of the Christmas card we're sending this year.  I may also include our newsletter we do every year.  If I have room.

Cookies!  And I finally used the awesome Mister Huey's that came exclusively in the kit.  It's called Holly Berry.  Love!

I have a slight obsession with peppermint this time of year.  Used the packaging from my favorite treats on this page.

And that's my first week.  I'm hoping I can keep caught up with this project, but so far, so good!  It's actually relaxing to work on it after the day is done and I can reflect on what I want to document.  Are you working on a December Daily?  Link me up, I'd love to see it!

Here are a few of my favorite December Daily's that are going on right now:
