December Daily, day 10.

Merry Christmas to me!! Today I came home to my much-anticipated package from Banana Fish Studios…a December Daily ephemera pack, and a Fall/Thanksgiving mini album kit. Talk about excited!! I love to experience what other talented artists are doing…and my December Daily album will benefit greatly!

The Fall/Thanksgiving kit

I’m still using items from the Studio Calico December Daily kit (no longer available), as well as Banana Fish Studios, and my own hand-made embellishments. I like the idea of putting bits and pieces of everyday life onto my pages. Magazine photos, catalogue pages, packaging, etc., bear weight to the story of my life right now; this is what I’m looking at, buying, seeing, talking about, using, etc. This is life, right now. I love that. I want to remember years from now when and where I got this or that decoration; who sent Christmas cards; how I celebrated; what I baked, and who said and did what. Thanks, Ali, for giving me the inspiration to make certain that this season is remembered and appreciated as never before.

I want to explore.

Yesterday I signed up for another class. Yes, I have an itch to enrich. This class is called “Explore” and is taught by Shimelle Laine. I have no idea what to expect, except that every day will introduce a new scrapbook adventure, and by the end of the class, I will have a journal filled with exciting new ideas, and my mind should be filled with inspiration!

Next week I am partaking in Ali Edwards’ “Week in the Life”, as I have done last year. This is a fun week of paying attention and documenting the everyday of my every day. I’ll be back giving updates of what I’m up to with each class. Can’t wait!
