Collecting Christmas Papers

Right now my desk is filled with paper projects. It’s the end of the year feelings, where I go through boxes of stuff and decide on what I want to work on, finish, or leave behind. It’s a way of clearing the plate for new ideas coming January I guess. In the process, I’ve found wrapping paper and Christmas related imagery en masse in my stash. I have a special folder for Christmas imagery that I have collected or been given. Mostly I keep it there because I don’t want to look at it all year long. But right now, it feels just perfect to bring it out and spread it out…

I have decided to make another December Journal this year (the first one is from 2011 and you can view the pages here, here and here).

I will show you a few pages and ideas when December starts up. But if you want to get started on your own book I suggest you check my Etsy Shop right now, as I’ve listed a few Christmassy Paper Kits there!

Listed 3 kits today (check out more photos of the paper kits here kit 1>, kit 2 and kit 3 (update: now sold out) and have two more to upload, but when they’re gone they’re gone. They are one of a kind, so get them while they last. And also, keep a look out around you right now and save all the beautiful Christmas images you can. Tis’ the time!

It’s amazing how much Christmas feeling you can stuff into one transparent envelope! Yummy!
