i really cannot believe that december 2012 has arrived! but i am excited for the season for so many reasons! i am excited for the family festivities, the twinkling lights, the light hearted atmosphere, december daily, special treats and yummies, Christmas cards in the post, the hustle and bustle, Christmas songs... but most of all, the true meaning of Christmas!
last year was the first year that i participated in ali edwards december daily... and i have to say i LOVED it! looking back through my album, what wonderful memories it holds (you can see my last years december daily project here). while i love doing a very elaborate project, this years december daily need to be much simpler or it will never get finished (like so many of my other projects!) i am going to follow ali's 4 x 6 dd format and really simplify things. this will be an all around challenge for me... from following a smaller format to keeping it simple! this year i have told myself that i will be ok with using my cell phone camera, that i will be ok with the pictures not being perfect, that i will be ok with one line journaling and that i will be ok with using my own handwriting (for the most part ;)) working scrapping in to my new daily schedule will take a bit of discipline on my part, as i am already a bit behind... but i think i can make this happen! so i am off to purchase ali's december daily overlays for 2012 (along with a few other little goodies from katie pertiet) and off to hobby lobby to gather a few more supplies. i am so excited to have a fresh new project to work on rather than playing catch up with old ones.
have a wonderful december 1st!
