I'm still plugging away with my Christmas journal. You can see my first lot of pages here. And here's the latest lot...
On the 9th me and hubby headed for a night-out so here we are all dressed up...
On the 10th we watched Elf as part of our advent activities so I decided to put the advent activity list in the journal with a wee note next to the 10th saying we watched Elf...
On the 11th we headed to Feilding for the Santa Parade...
On the 12th I didn't get any decent photos so added in some paper snowflakes that we'd made instead...
On the 13th I have included a picture of our fireplace (always the most festive part of the house!) and added a list of things I still need to do...
On the 14th we dropped off food at the SPCA so it made sense to include a picture featuring our own lovely SPCA rescue cutie (the dog not the baby!)..
On the 15th we read an advent story...
And on the 16th we did our Secret Santa at work so I featured the present I bought and the one I received...
And last of all - my lovely Mum forwarded on the embroidered badge I purchased for my front cover and it arrived so I made covers for the journal. I cut out 2 lots of 8 x 5.5 inch covers and used my silver and gold washi tapes to create stripey covers (I decided to leave a little bit of cardboard showing through) and I stuck the badge on the front cover. I'm pretty pleased with how it looks...
I'm hoping to get more photos printed by the end of this week to do another update before the big day :-)
Anyone else journalling Christmas?
Thats a really neat idea, I applaude your staying power with it hahaha Id have fizzled by the 3rd day ;)
