2020 Dec Daily

   Today I am going to a quick share of my 2020 December daily Coptic album. I created this with items in my stash. The cover is made from old cutting mates from my Cameo. It cut them in half, doubled them up, and covered them with brown shipping paper. I then decorated it with pattern papers and stickers. This is my first Coptic book I made isn't so cute?

 Also, this year, we did a family advent calendar so each day we did something as a family together, so you will see a lot of white paper slips tucked in this album.

   Now, here it is not so cute. This thing is packed, I shouldn't have used so many thick things in this, I was trying to use up those number Thicked and created cardstock envelopes to tuck in daily journaling. Now, I need to make an elastic band for this so it stays close. Good thing the cover is flexible.  

   I did a total of 5 signatures in the book. I broke it down into weeks and the last one holds miscellaneous things like a movie checklist, new Christmas decor pics, etc. 

   When I made this album I made it a 6"x12" so I didn't have to trim the papers down. Also, I added some pocket pages so I could just slip photos in. I might have added too many page protectors in so I trimmed one out on the days that I didn't need them. 

   I love this day 6 spread. I added a cut pop-up feature and typed my journaling on parchment. 

On day 12, I had one of those bulk cardstock envelopes to a score sheet from the game of Password.

 

   On days 14 and 16 I kept a very simple, I added some photos and stuck the advent calendar activity paper to it. My album was filled with a lot of cooking and shop work photos. 

Here is a look at the 5 signatures in the album. I always add a calendar to my albums to write our dinner meals on. It is fun looking back over the years to see what you eat. I also added the Hallmark movie checklist. I can say I watched over half on both stations. 

Here is one last photo. This page shows one of the new Christmas trees and behind the journaling cards shows the Christmas card list. 

I hope you enjoy the long post of a few photos of my Christmas 2020 album. The reason why I shared this now is that I just finished it. Christmas is my shop's busy time so I always so slow at finding motivation on completing it after Christmas. This year's motivation was brought to you by nothing on TV because of the Super Bowl.
