Last year, I sold 4×6 holiday books with 25 pages for celebrating and documenting December.

Ali Edwards has made the "December Daily" project famous and you can read more about her process here.

This year, I started planning much earlier and love every paper that is in the book. I am going to be working on them non-stop for the next two days. Originally, I mentioned a release date of November 1st, but I think I'll move that up to sometime next week. I will be sharing the finished book, prices and list date on Monday.

So excited for these.
