I started my Christmas cards before Arthur arrived, but didn't have the chance to upload the pictures.  My plan is to create ~five different cards using some old templates and some class designs.  So I focused on taking the design and using scraps and stamps to recreate it.  Not all are exactly alike, but I'm loving the results.  35 cards down, about 20 to go!

Pictures I ordered came in the mail the other day.  Inserting those finishes my introduction spreads in the PL albums.  I highlighted the results in my PL Transition post from Thursday.  Now I can start on my weekly spreads.  I've got the first week done and am working on week 2 today.  I need to remind myself to take more pictures throughout the week so I can have a few to choose from when it comes time to make the spread.  As an extra helper to record our daily lives, I signed up for Oh Life.  Every day they send you an email asking how your day was.  You just reply to the email.  The site collects your responses in an easy to read format.  This helps me remember to jot down a few key things about the day and I don't need to remember where I put the notebook, etc.  I'm going with a bulleted list of things for each day.  Then I can elaborate in my actual journaling cards if I want to or leave it as a bulleted list of activities.
