Elf on the Shelf!

It was nearly a month ago (November 18th) that our "Elf on a Shelf" arrived under our Christmas tree. We like to put up our Christmas tree after the Christmas Pageant here in Adelaide. It is so pretty that I like to be able to enjoy it for as long as possible. At the time there was lots of talk about "December Daily's" (a daily journal with photos of happenings in December). I thought I'd do my version of this by highlighting the antics of our Elf called "Elfie" in a SMASH* folio.

I used a Black SMASH* folio - because I had one already. I decided to keep the pages simpler than usual for me so that it was achieveable in the month and also I didnt want the folio to get to fat! Also on every page I have one of the adorable Elfie in the box digi by Angie Delarie. I printed a heap of these out in many different sizes and tucked them somewhere in the layout (like Where's Wally). I have also used the Elf on the shelf stamp set from "Give a Girl a ..." on all of the pages. This stamp set has many adorable sentiments/sayings that are perfect for SMASH*ing!




I've splattered some dark blue paint in my Black SMASH* folio and used a heap of my favourite products including Give A Girl A ... "Elf on the Shelf" stamp set, Angie Delarie's Elfie in the box digi, Studio Calico wood veneer trees, typewriter, stars and heart, October Afternoon Make it Merry miscellany & papers, Marth Stewart snowflake punch, and twine, rhinestones, washi, doilies & tag from my stash!

"Christmas Time is Beaut" stamp set, Studio Calico wood veneer bird and stars, October Afternoon Holiday Style miscellany, washi & flower sack, Marth Stewart snowflake punch, and doilie, twine, rhinestones & tag from my stash!
