The December Daily Album

Whooo, the Sharks came from behind 3-1 to WIN 5-4 against the St. Louis Blues! We are still in first place in the NHL!!! OMG!!! So EXCITING!!!

OK, on to other important stuffs! I'm finally posting pixs of the first few pages of my December Daily Album, minus day 12...

Cover, clear acrylic d.reeves 6"X6" album. Metal snowflake, metal wording from Michaels $1 bin. I wish I remembered to save the paper mfg names. Random # stickers too:

Day 1 - My Christmas wishlist. Same line of paper as the 2008 page, other cardstock, punched snowflakes, number sticker, misc. scrap paper : .)



Day 2 - Pix of me wearing my Ragged-made wristlets holding the stats sheet from the Sharks vs Toronto Maple Loafs, I mean Leafs game ; .), tree @ Christmas in the Park downtown SJ, polar bear gift tag, black rhinestone, punched snowflakes, snowflake parchment.


Day 3 - Paper Source snowflakes, one gesso'd and glittered. Pix of ladies at Bazaar Bizzare in SF (Flakes, get it??? Actually they weren't, they had cool felted wool art!) Silver trim, dymo label, glitter # sticker.

Day 4 - My Dad...Naughty or Nice??? LOL!!! He's such a good sport, I made him wear my Mickey Mouse Santa hat! Gotta love that expression and the beer can! Basic Grey bkgnd paper, snowflake stickers, dymo label, Making Memories Word 'fetti.

Day 10 - My co-worker fwd'd me a story about Zombie Elves, written by her son. On the same day, I left a collection of Limited Edition Star Trek Pez dispensers from said Zombie Elves @ a friend's desk. Then I found the googly-eyed elf sticker, a perfect compliment to the day's documentation. Elf and North Pole 99 cent stickers from Michaels, Starbuxs cup, Hambly transparency bkgnd, dymo labels, glitter # stickers.


Day 11 - Fresh haircut & color. Basic Grey bkgnd paper, metal snowflake, metal wording from Michaels $1 bin, painted reindeer ribbon bit, # sticker. That's a bit of my Christmas tree in the background.

Sick for Thanksgiving, car accident, what?! Man, I have missed a lot! Good gosh! Sending you some good vibes!!!!! But...your art has been AMAZING even if things haven't been too great! Seriously, looked back over all of the posts I missed, and all I kept saying was WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!! Loved the half peace sign too...LOL!! Love those socks and your Christmas journal is WONDERFUL! You have so much talent!

Yes, we got snow here since the last snowed 20 years ago like that! But it's back up to the high 60s, hot and humid!

Lisa said...

tomorrow makes 10 days since you blogged missy! lol

for a second i totally thought you were talking about a real man you're going on a date with! lol!! crazy girl, you should have come to see it with me! and made it a real date! hehe

yes i made the biscotti, but i think blogging twice in one day is obsessive so i will wait to post about it till tomorrow lol. it's surprisingly easy to make...i think it may be my new favorite thing. the only downside is you need a million lemons! you geta surprisingly small amount of lemon rind from one lemon. ohhh well you live and you learn

have fun with edward!
