Unlocking My Story...
I haven't been doing a ton of mini-albums lately, but I was totally inspired to take this class from Elizabeth Kartchner. It was so nice to sit down and document our story RIGHT NOW. The girls grow up so quickly and our daily lives change so rapidly...love this album!

December Daily, Days 13-25
I finished the December Daily album...so excited for December to come so I can add in photos and memorabilia. Here are days 13-25!
(To see Days 1-12 first, scroll down two posts-thanks!!!)
Day 13:
Day 13 begins with a decorated envelope and is followed by a transparency. Following that is a chipboard page-I will fill the entire front with a large photo, the back is decorated with patterned paper and embellishments.
Day 14:
Day 14 has a transparency with a journaling block adhered to it. I will most likely add in photos here via page protectors (I will decided in December based on what pics I have for that day).
Day 15:
Day 15 begins with a 4x6 transparency. Again, I will add in extra pages/pieces as needed here depending on what I have for that day.
Day 16:
Day 16 includes a journaling block, a square chipboard piece, an envelope to put letters to Santa in, and a decorative snowflake.
Day 17:
Day 17 is a 4x6 transparency and a black felt bracket page. On the back is a mini file folder I can either add photos to or journal in.
Day 18:
Another transparency and square chipboard piece covered with patterned paper on the front and burlap on the back. (I like to use a variety of textures and materials, but like to use them more than once...adds to the cohesion of the album).
Day 19:
Day 19 is a transparency, a tag, and a smaller transparency.
Day 20:
Here is used a scrap of a pearly white scalloped piece of cardstock. I will most likely add more here depending on what I have (or not...).
Day 21:
Day 21 is a transparency and an acrylic bracket page. Here, I placed a patterned paper on the backside and the laser cut paper on the top. Initially, it worked great because the patterned paper was doublesided...but then I ended up covering the back with a different pattern because the colors seemed off.
Day 22:
Another transparency plus another envelope.
Day 23:
A chipboard piece covered with patterned paper...
Day 24 (Almost done!!!):
Here I just have a small transparency but am sure that I will be adding in some additional page protectors (some divided) here since it is Christmas eve.
Day 25!:
Here is a covered chipboard piece, a journaling block, followed by the last page (chipboard) of the album!

Thanks for looking! I will post more photos when completed! : )
