My Krafty Kringle Kit for December Days

I am so excited to have a custom December Days kit in the Whimsical Twist shop!

I built this kit with the non-daily scrapper in mind. Last year, for my December Daily, I used a non-Project Life style kit and documented from Black Friday to Christmas Day in a kraft album with a spiral. I loved that style and now want to bring it to you!

Unlike the day-in-the-life kits, the Krafty Kringle Kit is meant to mark the events and celebrations from Thanksgiving to New Years. Pockets and tabs throughout the kit help you to document and save lists, receipts, ticket stubs — you name it! Without the pressure to get something done each day, you can make small pages in the 7x10 album as you go along when you have time. Gorgeous holiday papers from Pink Paislee and Heidi Swapp keep it festive as embellishments from Webster's Pages, Elle's Studio, and My Mind's Eye jazz up your journaling. Tuck things away in festive treat bags and fun pockets in the Farmhouse Paper Co. Craft Album. 

Krafty Kringle December Days Kit includes the following contents:

• Dry Goods 10 x 7 craft album (Farmhouse Paper Company)
• Snow Village 6 x 6 paper pad (Pink Paislee)
• Believe 12 x12 Jingle All The Way patterned paper (Heidi Swapp)
• Believe 12 x 12 Peppermint Stick patterned paper (Heidi Swapp)
• Believe 12 x 12 Merry & Bright patterned paper (Heidi Swapp)
• Christmas Snowflakes Overlay (Webster's Pages)
• Large Gold Polkadot Washi (Freckled Fawn)
• Noel Tabbed Cards (Elle's Studio)
• Noel Lil Snippets Labels (Elle's Studio)
• Exclusive kraft and red diagonal striped mini sack (Whimsical Twist)

We are looking forward to helping you document the holiday season! Join us for classes, too!

Today over on the Whimsical Twist blog, we are sharing projects that highlight Scallops/Borders/Banners/Doilies. We want you to play along with us, so check out the blog post and share your work that falls under these categories. 

I made this using the My Mind's Eye Chalk Studio 6x6 paper pad and Cut & Paste enamel dots, some doilies I had in my stash and the Glitz Dapper Dan 6x6 paper pad. The orange card stock is from Core'dinations and the twine is from The Twinery.

I used the Dapper Dan collection for the acorns. I cut them on my Cameo using a studio file, and the woodgrain and brown papers in that collection were perfect for giving the acorns texture and a woodsy feel.

Here's what it looks like hanging up in my front entranceway. It's my favorite place to decorate with the seasons, and a banner always helps pull it all together.

Chalk Studio cards {whimsical twist}

Hello! Today I am blogging over at the Whimsical Twist blog. I was so excited to get the 6x6 paper pad and chipboard pieces from the Chalk Studio by My Mind's Eye from the Whimsical Twist shop. I was afraid to cut into for the longest time — and then I was inspired. 

I love the mix of tan, blue and pink with the blackboard papers. It makes it so easy to create very different looks with one common theme — the chalkboard. 

The chipboard pieces are great, too. So many different pieces on one sheet. I love the mix of blank and sentiment options.

Don't forget to check out the Whimsical Twist shop for all of the new My Mind's Eye goodies. Right now there is a code for 25% off your total order: AUTUMN25. Make sure to scoop up all of the new CHA releases while you are there.
