This is my seventh year doing a December Daily album. Over that time, I’ve developed some traditions for the album. For example, I finish each year with my OLW for the next year and I often put a photo of tulips on my last page.
Another tradition I have is for the first page. A few years ago, I begun my album with “and so it begins” and I decided that I liked it so much that it would be how I start each year. Some years I also add photos of us and some years I don’t. This year, I did not.
I’ve been a huge fan of gold lately and I am happy to see that it’s popular, though it doesn’t photograph so well. This page has the beautiful gold deer:
and here’s one more look so you can see the dimensional wood, too.
there we go. That’s day one. See you tomorrow.
What a fantastic idea to start every year with those words. Great. Love your first page.
Beautiful start to the album!
