Lori's Days 5 and 6


Day 5 - This was a pretty low-key day for us. My granddaughter received a couple more birthday presents to be opened - thanks to her aunts. I kept Day 5 pretty simple. I fussy cut the scalloped border from one of the papers in my kit and punched one of the presents from the same paper to use as an embellishment.


Day 6 was a story that I wanted to document. I couldn't believe it when I went to our local outlet mall and their Christmas trees were decorated with these "icicles". I hadn't even thought about this decoration from my childhood in years, and oh what memories it brought back!


When these two layouts were side by side in my album I wasn't too crazy about them. They just didn't go well together, so I obsessed over it for a couple of days, trying to figure out what I could do to make it more pleasing to me.


I finally decided to make a "filler" page and I like the results so much better. 



I think adding in the filler page helped the layouts be more cohesive and a little more pleasing to the eye.

How are you doing with your December Daily! Don't forget to share with us in the comments below,
