December Daily® 2014 | Day Ten

Welcome to December Daily® 2014 | Day Ten.

A couple nights ago the kids and I had dinner with Aaron and he and Anna embarked on some holiday coloring while we waited for our meal. I brought the back of the menu home knowing I wanted to incorporate part of the drawings they were doing into my album. I cropped the drawing to 6x8 to fit in the pocket and added a couple embellishments a date stamp a couple identifying words on top.

In addition to the drawing, December 10th is also the day of Anna's school Christmas program. I decided to just leave the pocket empty so I can add a photo from that event tomorrow when I have a chance to print and photograph my project during the day.

Here's a look at the spread for Day Ten:

Many of you know I'm a fan of yellow sticky notes in Project Life®. They work great in this project too as you work your way through the month.

I continue to love the idea of adding "real life" stuff to my projects. For December Daily® it's often drawings, Santa letters, receipts, things I've received in the mail, etc.

You can leave the artwork (or real life stuff) as it is, or add a couple embellishments like I did here. I added the initials "A" and "A" using the letter stickers on top of the plastic ampersand. I stapled the ampersand to a gold foil circle and then used foam dots to adhere that grouping to the art work.

Underneath I added the rubber "merry and bright" banner. Those things are so cool.

Adding a simple sticky note can help you remember what you wanted to document - it's especially helpful when you aren't sure when you'll get a chance to get back to the project.

You also might notice that I moved the transparent 1/2 page to tomorrow.

Hope you are having a great week!

EDITED: Here's the updated image that includes the photos from Day 10:
