AAAAAAAnd moving right along. It's amazing how easy I am finding it to add little photos and pages as the month goes on. It helps that Paul has a new xbox game and therefore we each get "downtime" without annoying each other to bits.
First things first, I went back and added a label over the stars on my photo pages from last week. They were freaking me out. I wanted to rip out the whole photo but took a breath and just stuck something on top. "Let it go" is a good mantra to repeat over and over while working on little books.
The next few pages feature pieces from CraftLove's holiday tag kit. I am not using it to make gift tags but instead as simple little embellishments that will probably make an appearance throughout the whole book. Into the green envelope, I tucked a large tag from the kit and wrote on it the gifts that I am giving this year. It is something I would like to remember but feel awkward just splashing out there. I am not sure how I will use the rest of the envelopes in the book, but I love the tuck factor.
On the back of the envelope, I mounted a photo. It's fuzzy on purpose…the project and tutorial will go live later in the week. You get a little sneak peek here though.
Today I am going to work on adding a few photos from the "Thanksgiving After Thanksgiving" party we attended last night and some of the little holiday decorations I have put up around the house. It's strange…we are really not doing anything "Christmas-y" until December 24th this year, but I am still finding little small holiday events to incorporate. Good stuff.
