Caviat: This is actually yesterday’s page. I’m a day behind on sending out these emails.
I had no idea what I wanted to do this afternoon when I got to my desk. Then someone reminded me that it was Thursday3 and I could just do a Thursday3 page! What a simple idea, that I completely forgot about.
Originally I was going to put this page on one of the blank pages a little further back in the book—I’ve still got Days 8, 12, 13, 15, and 16 to create. But then I decided that it would just work out perfectly if I put it on today’s page.
Then I had a bit of extra time, and decided to go over to page 12 (a day I don’t really have a story for) and add in some fun holiday embellishments.
Technique of the Day
I wanted to make today’s page easier on myself—so I flipped through my journaling cards and found one that would work for Thursday3. Then I flipped through the rest of my holiday papers and found a background that coordinated with the journaling card. For the opposite page, I cut out some presents from a totally different journaling card, added some shiny gold washi tape as a base and made that page just a cute little holiday visual. Perfect to go with the journaling.
For my Day 12 page, I grabbed a tag that I had mostly created last weekend when I was playing around on the couch. It was a cute little sequined shaker pocket. I added the day’s number on the front and matched up the right side of the page with some great little holiday embellishments.
