Goodbye 2011...Hello 2012!!!

Once again, hello! It's been so long since I've been able to share anything with you!
I thought that I would come say hi and wish you all a Happy New Year! 
I'll be going out to supper with a big group of friends and then probably board games, some drinks and watching the ball drop on TV. 
I'm excited for 2012 and all the new beginnings that will come with it. I have a lot of personal goals that I've been working on lately and will hopefully be able to expand on in the new year.
(I'll be sharing those in a layout later)

First, I wanted to share a few new layouts with you and tell you about Design House Digital's 2nd Birthday!!!  I hope that you'll check it out and celebrate with us!

Christmas Sale!!!

Hi everybody!! I know it's been a long time since I've been able to post anything. I started a new job at the beginning of November and have been really busy with that. The holidays have sped by and Christmas is already here. If you saw any of the Christmas headbands that I made this fall or any of the other headbands that you liked, I'm having a big sale. I'm clearing out all of my ready made headbands at HALF OFF!!! There aren't any coupon codes or anything, I just marked everything down for you. Go check it out!!!
Merry Christmas! I hope to be back after the holidays to start sharing some new pages and projects with all of you!

It's That Time of Year....

...when the world falls in love...
Anyone else singing along? Haha. I LOVE Christmas music so much and have actually been listening to just a little since Halloween. I got the new Michael Buble CD per advice from a bunch of ladies over at DHD. It's great! He's got such a pretty voice and reminds me of Frank Sinatra. I'll share more about my love for Christmas music and movies later.
What I really want to talk about is December Daily! Are you doing one this year? Do you remember mine from last year? You can find all the posts here, here and here.

Well, that was when I was paper scrapping and I still love that album so much. This year however, I've decided to tackle the project with digital scrapbooking. I have a few pages all set up already but for the first few days so far, I've just been making the pages as I go.

 It took some playing around to figure out the style I wanted to go with. Karen Funk has a Christmas kit that's very kraft based and Karla Dudley has one that's more modern. I'll be pulling pieces from both of those kits for my DD but Robyn Meierotto's Vintage Holiday kit will be my starting point for most of my pages. I also did a lot of browsing other people's ideas to see what I liked and I did play with using an all white background but the kraft just looked so much better! In case you're still wondering if you want to do a DD this year, here's some of my favorite inspirations from other scrappers. (click for credits)
Celeste (above) is using a kraft background and a lot of Robyn's Vintage Holiday kit as well. You should seriously check out her Flicker gallery for all of her pages!

I hope you will follow me along on this December Daily journey! It's snowing here today and it's our first snow of the season so I know what I'll be scrapping today!!! :D
