I finished my Christmas 2012 journal! I had already done a page for each day using inks, paints and stamps, so decided to use the opposite page for a photo or two and some pretty paper. I was really pleased to use up some older Christmas stash! Here’s a few of the double page spreads:
I used old Christmas cards and other bits and pieces on some pages where I didn’t have a photo
And I will admit there are 1 or 2 pages that are not completed, but I am OK with that. I have written everything I want to about Christmas 2012!
That wraps up my January craft goal, to finish off my 2012 album and JYC. So what am I going to do in February?
I want to quilt my Little Town quilt and Tuscan Village scene, so I am going to try and sew everyday! Remember LOAD (Layout a Day)? Well, this is SAD, Sew a Day! I know it should be Sew Every Day, but I prefer SAD to SED!

That looks like a very satisfying album to page through.
Can't wait to see it IRL.... Loving the SAD!! That reminded me of my mum - she hated February!!!!

How lovely and satisfying to have actually finished :). Have you woven those strips of paper together on that left-hand page? So very effective.
I like your idea of using Christmas cards for a no photo day - I am going to borrow and use that idea for my December album. Thanks.
Well done for finishing! And don't forget the knitting in Feb too!!!
love the look of your album....and I like the fact that you know you've recorded all you want to, even though you have a few extra pages!
