So I made just enough room on my desk to play around with some photos I just received from Persnickety Prints, some Sn@p! products (love my orange binder), and some Elle's Studio tags.

I am easing into holiday mode, so I thought I would start of with a simple 6X8 page to go into my Snap binder. Here's how it came together.

The photos are 2x2 printed on matte card stock. They come with a wide white border that I trimmed off with scissors. These Snap alphas are back in stock at Two Peas.

I'll be doing December Daily using tons of Elle's Studio products. I'll be sharing my prep work next week on the blog and will be sharing a lot more in the classroom, as I'm also one of the teachers for Studio Calico's 25 Days. Elle’s Studio has the perfect supplies you are looking for to compliment any holiday project you are working on! Whether it be December Daily, layouts, cards, etc. they have you covered with lots of tags, embellishments and even an exclusive stamp that they just released! Their Be Merry line has lots of different tags, and some even fit the Project Life and Studio Calico Handbook pockets! They are also the only spot where you’ll find their exclusive stamp that is perfect for the holidays and even after! However, the stamp is limited and once they sell out, they have no plans to restock it, so don’t miss it!

You can also find them at the following places: blog, facebook, pinterest, twitter and on instagram. And, just in time for Christmas, their gift certificates are available now!

GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED: Two people will receive Elle’s Studio new exclusive Christmas stamps TO ENTER: Just leave a comment telling me what your plan is for documenting the holidays. Winners will be chosen on Monday, November 19 at 7am and announced shortly after. UPDATED: WINNERS ARE #31 & #151. CONGRATS!

To document the holiday season I bought a red Sn@p binder and Kelly Purkey’s DD kit. I am just hoping that I get an iphone before it starts, so that it will force me to take more casual photos. I hope we will see some of your fun pages! Thanks for the chance to win such a cute stamp set!

If this makes sense, I want to do a mixture of Shimelle’s Journal Your Christmas, December Daily, and Project Life.:
