Unity Thursday! Hip Hop! -- December Daily style

Happy Thursday Blog Hoppers!

Today's hop theme is 'Journal Your Christmas' ie. December Daily albums. I love the idea of the December Daily album. Create the bones of an album and then in the month of December when life gets crazy all you have to do is snap a photo a day and jot down a note about what you did that day.

It took me all of an hour to create the bones of my December Daily album. I used the Unity Stamp Company December Kit of the Month and a $4 mini album from Target.


The cover was stamped with the sentiment stamp from the Nov '10 KOTM using white pigment ink. Then I added some Imaginisce gems with the I-Rock and tied a ribbon around the rubber band that keeps the book closed. 

For the cover page I used 2 different older Unity Stamp Sets (but good basics to have!)



The inside pages are all the same. On the right I cut 4x6 pieces of white cardstock and stamped 'Picture Perfect' with the Nov '10 KOTM.
On the left side I cut 4x6 pieces of white cardstock and stamped Just a note and the poinsettia image. 
The plan is to make a note on the left and then I can add the photos on the right.
How simple is this?! Seriously!

Now back to the Unity blog if you didn't start there so you can Hop through all the design team blogs. 
If you're ready to move along then on to Christi's blog for more inspiration.

Have a good one!
