Ali Edwards makes a Daily December Albums every December. I decided to try one too. I purchased a Sharon Ann tablet from TOM and used other things I already had on the craft shelves. The tablet had paper, and metallic cutouts. I made my album 6 x 6 and used rings to keep it together. Just make a cover, and one page per day, number them and you're ready for December. Beginning December first take a photo a day, develop it and glue it in the album. Ali tells us not to get caught up in the fact that somedays have very little to do with the season, rather the focus is on daily life for a month. Since not everyday is planned your photo might not be great with the paper for that day-Oh well! This was truly an exercise in letting go. Let go, glue and insto-facto album.
My cover, I used acetate for the back and front and a bit inside too.
Today I cleaned and cleared. My house is now a blank canvas waiting for Christmas decorations. And my album is ready too!

Yay for blank slates. I am ready for that as well.
My album is ready - just need to punch a few more holes. I love it.
Thanks for sharing.

Oh, I meant to ask, what's cranberry fluff?? It sounds interesting.....Sue
I may have to post the fluff recipe- it is a family tradition. And strangely no guys like it, but the women have to have it...
What are the pages of your book made of? Are they just cardstock, or do you have chipboard or something in there to beef them up? I think I might whip something like that up this weekend In January I was going to start a 12 on the 12th album - have you heard of those?
I'm going to Janice's class on Mon night, when can I come to yours? I'll start taking the pictures and then you can show me what to do!!! Sounds good to me, but maybe not so much for you?!!
