{ Document December 2020 #stayhome for the Holidays }

Stay Home For The Holidays collection by Traci Reed is perfect for what is going on currently. Even though I am not documenting December Daily activities, I am still documenting December. I decided to create a mini album made of envelopes. This is based on an album that I created a few years ago documenting out summer vacation in Florida. I loved the style of it and the ability to add multiple photos and journaling. More photos of the 2017 summer album HERE. 

See the video below or on Youtube.

Here is the current mini album.

The envelopes are 4-1/8 x 9-1/2 inches, also called a #10 envelope, and I used three to create this album. After sealing the envelopes, I cut both ends off (1/4″ from the end) and each is folded at 3 inches from the left, then adhered with the short 3” side to the back of the 6” side. That creates 6 different pockets, two small and two large, to tuck in photos, tags and journaling. Then I took two pieces of white cardstock, sized at 4-1/4″ x 6-1/8″, and adhered one to the front, and one to the back of the envelope stack. On the outside of the cardstock, I adhered patterned paper from the #stayhome for the Holidays collection, creating a cover and back page. 

Make sure you check out this wonderful collection.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

 I have neglected this little blog of  mine that I started in January 2007. That is almost 14 years ago. I have been on numerous design teams, and participated in many challenges over that time. Two weeks ago I joined Traci Reed Designs Design Team. I will be creating hybrid projects using all her digital collections. I will still create all the fun things that I love, just not posting as often on the blog. Majority of my creations are on Instagram. Since going back to work full time there aren't enough hours in the day for all the things I would like to do.  

I have been creating in my Traveler's Notebook for the past few years and I really like the smaller size. Here are some of the layouts I created using Seek Gratitude collection. 

One for the MemoryDex. I have a blog post about Gratitude challenge that you can check out where I made several different memorydex cards for my Memorydex spinner. 

This one I created using All The Thanks For This collection using Traveler's Notebook papers and printable stickers.

Traci Reed Designs is having a storewide sale through Tuesday at noon EST with code BF2020-40.

I hope you stick around.
