This is a rad little project where stories are collected each day through the month of December, paired with pictures and ephemera and put into an album.  Being a lover of all things Christmas and holiday themed, I was immediately intrigued, and wanted to participate.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/amyalphin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/P1030430-2-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1744\" srcset=\"http:\/\/amyalphin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/P1030430-2-600x400.jpg 600w, http:\/\/amyalphin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/P1030430-2-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/amyalphin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/P1030430-2-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I learned more about this project from Ali Edward&#8217;s site, ordered a mini-kit and an album, and was READY.  My first December Daily ended up being a hodge podge of product, mostly hand-me-down alphas and numbers from Ingunn paired with the items from the mini-kit all held in a 4&#215;6 bright red album.  I had no idea what I was doing or how my album was &#8220;supposed&#8221; to look, I just dove right in.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/amyalphin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/P1030428-2-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1745\" srcset=\"http:\/\/amyalphin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/P1030428-2-600x400.jpg 600w, http:\/\/amyalphin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/P1030428-2-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/amyalphin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/P1030428-2-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To this day, this first album is one of my favorites.
