In our home, counting down the days until Christmas morning is a family favorite.  This year I will be taking one photo each day to mark the days until our family get-together!  This altered book will be the base of my project as it is perfect for both journaling and photos. 

From the beautiful Art Warehouse Christmas collection to the silky ribbons, each product is important to providing the perfect finished design!  One of my favorite ribbons by May Arts is the “EA” series, the ribbons have a gorgeous silky texture.

For the 25 Days of Christmas book, I used the EA series of  ribbons in two different widths and three favorite colors.
