This is the shorter page I use for each new week of Advent.

Letters are from a Cuttlebug die cut. Music paper reflects the left side of the layout.

And....I'm almost caught up!! :-)

This is the left side of the division pages I use to break the album up by weeks. I don't write anything on this page since I have space on the Sunday page for journaling or scrapbooking or whatever.

More music paper on the edge, which is carried over to the right side of the layout. The red holly paper is from an Anna Griffin Christmas pad.

I punched the tree from the same green cardstock I have used throughout the Dec Daily.

Here's the right side of December 4.

I used the same green cardstock as the left side and I added three Tim Holtz grunge stars, colored with Mustard Seed Distress Ink.

Paper is from My Mind's Eye.

The contrast between the yellow grunge shapes and the deep green paper is really pretty in person. I like that it's got a clean, simple look to it.

Still playing catch-up here!

I used one of my 3 main colors of cardstock, this time green. On both sides of Dec 4th, I adhered more Tim Holtz grunge shapes. This side has a flourish, colored with Mustard Seed Distress Ink.

I cut a square of My Mind's Eye paper and distressed it with Antique Linen and Brushed Corduroy.

December Daily--Dec 3

I used more of my favorite BoBunny paper for this page. (This is the same paper I used for the cover.) I inked up a leftover strip of chipboard with Forest Moss Distress Ink and adhered it like a ribbon divider between the two papers.

The flowers are Tim Holtz Tattered Flowers die cuts. I inked them with Fired Brick Distress Ink after I stamped them with a script stamp.

I will admit that the pages for December 3 are a tad...boring. ;-)

I used a cute little Christmas tree row stamp across the bottom, with Fired Brick Distress Ink for a tone-on-tone look.

The paper at the top is BoBunny, distressed with Antique Linen and Brushed Corduroy.

The bottom layer is red cardstock.

The end.

For the right side of December 2, I covered the chipboard with red cardstock and sprayed it with Glimmer Mist (Brick).

I used ivory cardstock for the scalloped oval, with Distress Ink on the edges.

The trees were made with glossy cardstock, Alcohol Inks, Black Stazon, script stamp and a tree punch.

The faith paper was cut from the same piece as the hope stamp was on the left side of this day.
