Hello friends! I'm excited to share part one of my December Daily journal for this year. I've been a busy bee this December and have had the most fun recording memories along the way. I've used the Eileen Hull Journal die to make my cover and purchased travelers journal notebook inserts for my daily pages.
On some of my pages I used printed vellum from the Junk With Steph Antiquity Add On kit available on Etsy. This is a fabulous set of ephemera to print. Here I tucked a beloved photo into a printed vellum pocket.
I also used lots of printable images, many of which you can find on my Pinterest board HERE, stamps by Tim Holtz, printed family photos and lots of washi tape.
You may remember seeing my cover two years ago on THIS
post. I really wanted to work in the journal I made that November, but
on December 4 of 2018 we received Sydney's cancer diagnosis and let's
just say life got crazy quick! This year things are finally more normal
than they have been in a while, so I decided it was time to finally
DECEMBER DAILY! Furthermore, I wanted to specifically record our
family's traditions and some of my childhood memories as an heirloom for
my kids. Oh how I wish I had my Grandmother's thoughts on paper of the
many stories she told me of her life growing up!! While I can't change
that fact, I can do my part to save our history going forward... And I
hope this little personal tidbit will encourage you to do the same. :)
These are my pages so far. I will share more details and flip through videos on my @letterpaperpen Instagram account.
As promised, I have another freebie download for you. I have truly enjoyed using these in my journal so far. You can download the three page PDF with all of the colors HERE. Or you can download the files separately by color as a PNG file HERE for Red/White, HERE for Black/White and HERE for Green/Vintage. I printed mine onto full sheet stickers using Avery 5165 labels. I find these to be great for all sorts of sticker printing.
Make sure to save and pin this post for future reference and enjoy creating memories this December. Big holiday hugs, Autumn

Lovely pages🥰
Wow, Autumn, your December Daily is GORGEOUS! I've never made one but I love seeing what others do. Absolutely beautiful work and will be such a nice memory to look back on. I love all the vintage images you've used and I'll definitely be checking out your pinterest board, thank you! Huge thanks for the Christmas words - even if I don't do a Dec. daily, I can use these on my cards - they are awesome - thanks for all the colours! Much appreciated! Merry Christmas!
This is wonderful Autumn with such super memories and such a special journal for those memories ...
I remember that 2018 cover - I loved it so much I "copied" it as best I could with what supplies I had. So glad to see your current daily - what a treasure for your kids. I love doing them, think I'm on my fifth year. I don't write as much as you do though!
Merry Christmas, Autumn! You are so sweet to offer us these text sheets, thank you very much. I loved that Traveler's Journal then and now. Your pages are wonderful, thanks for sharing them. XOX
