Does anyone know where I could find similar dies please? They would be a great help for my Journaling strips, but they're much too expensive, alas. www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Simon-Says-Stamp-SENTIMENT-LABELS-Wafer-Dies-sssd111836-Stamptember-sssd111836?currency=USDsleepingbooty don't throw rocks at me, haha, but I thought The Knight Before Christmas was kind of meh. There was no plot to speak of and so many things that had me scratching my head (even knowing it was a Christmas movie). I do agree that the choice of clothes was great, though. For some reason, I also noticed that while watching  Ps: I've been binge-watching Christmas movies and so far, apart from this one, I've liked them all 😉 |

It's a good thing my SO enjoyed both this one and Klaus or it'd be trouble in our tiny home... I've got Elf, The Muppet Christmas Carol and the 2018 Grinch movie for the upcoming week. Should be good. Let's do this Christmas thing!  |

Haha, there was some serious cross-advertising happening, I agree! Did you like this movie better than the mutilated elephant one or did your magic box not make any merry this weekend? I wasn't a big fan. I don't know if it's my inner Grinch, she feels very prominent right now, or my usual pickiness. I did watch "Christmas Contract" the other day and it wasn't as great as I thought it would be with original "One Tree Hill" cast members. I'll have to report back if I find a good one soon. I did enjoy "Klaus", "Noelle", and "Christmas Chronicles" though! |

sleepingbooty, the benefit of having tiny kids. I have already watched that grinch 3 times since November 1st. Lol. I usually keep tally of all the movies we watch in December and the amount of times because kids love to watch them over and over and over.

December album freebie alert! If you're using In a Creative Bubble goodies in your DD, you may be interested in downloading the American Lemon font duo that is free this week:  If you're using this year's Pinkfresh Christmas collection, this icon set makes a great complement and has some wintery/festive vectors:  |

I saw Frozen 2 over the weekend. I really enjoyed it. I laughed! I cried! It was lovely to see my daughter fall in love with Elsa all over again. We also watched Polar Express for the first time yesterday and it won't be the last either. I like how you keep count of how many times films are watched, ecvnj58 , I might have to do that for Polar Express and Arthur Christmas (which, if you've not seen, is just gorgeous). I need to see the Grinch sleepingbooty sorry to hear about all the horrific weather you've been having. I hope it's calmed down a bit now? I am loving the thought of a 31 day photo challange by the way, I am looking forward to doing that.
I have still yet to do a title page and a letter. Work is so quiet at the moment I am sitting around at home doing nothing so I think I shall concentrate on doing some crafty things tomorrow. I did discover while procrastinating today these great foundation pages:

I did discover while procrastinating today these great foundation pages: Love the amount of interactivity in her album! She had some really interesting little bits like the AE plastic envelope hack with the slits to fit over the rings in the album.  Holy hexagon, however. I do love that there is a personal connection to the hexagon shape to honour her grandmother's quilts. sleepingbooty sorry to hear about all the horrific weather you've been having. I hope it's calmed down a bit now? I am loving the thought of a 31 day photo challange by the way, I am looking forward to doing that. Thanks for asking. The Mediterranean episode is over, fortunately. Clean-up time but also mourning for those who've lost loved ones due to the storm, alas. Blue skies and sunshine ahead now. It's odd how quickly the weather turns and is back to normal. I'm so excited about sharing the bonus 31 photo prompts in December! I look forward to hearing your feedback and seeing which photos they inspire in this creative crowd of ours.  |

Pretty much finished Xmas shopping today. There’s nothing worse to me than stores in December.
We saw Frozen II yesterday and it was so good!!!
Can’t wait for Thursday. My first day is all the kids decorating my mom’s tree after we eat lunch.
I want something to document! Bring it.

*rubs belly when Christmas dinner is served* *starts singing Chubby Pug* Did you get the Nutcracker DCWV stack or manage to see it in real life? I'm still taking the occasional sneaky look at it... Pretty much finished Xmas shopping today. There’s nothing worse to me than stores in December. Yay! I'm not a big fan of shopping in brick and mortar stores so, like you, I try to avoid stores in December. I'm *so* close to being done with the Christmas gifts but then again, I've ordered almost everything online.  Lazy bones... |

Working on my 2010, 2014 and 2019 DD albums at the same time. mom I think you are working on multiple albums too? How is it going for you? I'm dropping the daily part of DD altogether this year. I've been starting in November and adding Christmas-related stories as I go. This year, I'll be doing the same for December. No numbers either. It might be obvious to some of you, but "bending the rules" took me years! 😋 Eta: it's finding my own way to scrapbook Christmas that did, actually. |

I like that. I struggle with the daily thing. It's, in my opinion, a more naturally flowing project if you approach it by "Yuletide chapters" based on your holiday habits, schedule and traditions rather than numbered days. I never clicked with the 1-25/31 December thing. Just doesn't fit my life. Glad to see more people embracing the freedom and going back to the Journal Your Christmas roots. Working on my 2010, 2014 and 2019 DD albums at the same time. mom I think you are working on multiple albums too? How is it going for you? kicked everybody's derrière in this thread. She's already completely caught up and even fully prepped for 2019. I'm dropping the daily part of DD altogether this year. I've been adapting the concept for a couple of years--I'm starting in November, for example, and adding Christmas-related stories as I go. Then I used to go on with daily stories of Décember. This year, I'll be going on as in November. No numbers, no need for one story a day--but four or five if need be. It might be obvious to some of you, but "bending the rules" took me years! 😋 Welcome the rule breakers' side!  My album will also commence in November and run until the end of the first week of January. No shame in my what-is-right-for- me game. Confession time: I've never done an actual DD. None of my December albums are a chronological succession of December days. None have a number on each spread. Actually, the album with the most numbered days in it has four... *chaotic neutral enabled*  |
