... and I am officially not ready for it. Going to try not to stress out about getting the Christmas shopping done & everything else that comes along with the holidays though, so I don't end up in the hospital again like I did last year. No time for that nonsense! Must keep this thought in the forefront of my mind...
... and it's a FREE download. Love it!
I put my December Daily mini book together yesterday. Most of the pages aren't embellished yet, nor are the numbers on each one, but I prefer to do that as I go along. I never know how many photos I'll end up with for each day, so I'd rather do it all at the same time. My front & back cover are from the cardboard box that Piperlime ships their merchandise in. As if I don't LOVE that website enough already, then they have to make it even better & ship your order in the cutest lined box EVER...
And just go ahead and roll your eyes & shake your head at me now, because I'll forewarn you that you're going to see that dimensional snowflake again soon. That's what you get when you read this blog... the same thing over & over again... LOL
Oh how I love pink + green for Christmas! Who I am kidding... I love pink + green period. Just look at my craft room. LOL Anyway... the book is just random old paper + stash I pulled from my scrap bin. Will probably use some SRM stickers throughout the book, too. Did you know SRM is having a design team call? Sadly, it's already time for them to say goodbye to their first team ever & look for a brand new team. It has been a BLAST! SO MUCH FUN! So much GREAT product! Get all the details here!
And speaking of Piperlime, I just put a couple things on my Christmas list from them...
faux fur jacket metal ring necklace
They would go well with the seriously cute & seriously el cheapo stiletto heel work boots I just bought from Forever 21...
LOVE them.
PS... Look here for the SRM Stickers + Cosmo Cricket blog hop.
Time for Zumba... my favorite day of the week! Must go dance & sweat my butt off...
You should spend xmas in Australia.. certainly laid back here :). We never do much at Christmas, but I guess it is mostly because it never feels like christmas to me. How can it be hot during Christmas??? Still makes no sense whatsoever to me.

Pink and green is one of my favorite combos too! I love that you used the box for the cover. I can't wait to see the the rest as it progresses.
BTW...I literally LOL'd when I read your second comment correcting the first. That is SOOOO something I would do! :)

Love the cover of your December Daily and those boots are stunning. Would love a pair but I wouldn't be able to wear them as we've got about 15 cm of snow and really slippery pavements at the moment. ;)

I love the Piperline pattern and what you did with it is just amazing. I think this is my favorite project of yours ever. The cover is just perfect!
