December Daily Prep - Embellishments

All the pretties!  My favorite part of making my DD album has been choosing all the embellishments that I want! I went a little crazy buying some great supplies, but I imagine that some of it can be used for other projects.

Washi Tape, glitter tape, and glitter snowflakes -- I am not a fan of ribbon anymore. Washi tape it my new addiction.  Somehow I narrowed it down to five rolls of washi: gold chevron, black stripe, red polka dot, green design, and red stripe (in another bag right now). In addition to regular washi tape, I had to buy some great glitter tape. I ended up with silver, gold, and red.  A late addition to the stash was this package of glitter chipboard snowflakes from Michaels.  Love the sparkle!

Die cuts, sequins, and punch outs -- Buried in that pile is a few packages of die cuts that coordinate with some of teh paper.  I also punched out a ton of trees and ornaments from the leftover paper stash.  Oh course I had to include the gold sequins and snowflake shaped sequins to the stash.  You can also spy a "Christmas" word flair and a bag of small star, ornament, and tree punched out pieces.  I think I'll use those piece for a confetti pocket... Plus, I have a bag of numbers for the main bulk of December.  I didn't want to adhere them to the paper right away.  I like to have options of switching things around during the process. 

Stickers, alphas, enamel shapes, extra paper, and journaling tags -- I pulled a ton of supplies from my regular PL stash but also bought some new holiday themed stickers. These piles are huge, but I love having options.

Stickers and Alphas -- Lastly, I have a few 12x12 sheets of stickers and alphas that coordinate with the paper collections i bought. This alphas are the perfect size for titles.
