Get it together for New Year! No. 09

At the end of this year it’s the perfect time to look back reflect and see just how far you and your scrapbooking/photography/family story telling/memory keeping have come.
Take a look at what you did.
See the layouts you made, the challenges you got inspired by, and this community here at DD that you were part of. 
Pat yourself on the back for all that!

It is, of course, a great time plan ahead too.
Are you doing Project 365 in 2011? Maybe its your first year, or your fifth year. Either way there are some great threads, fabulous supplies, {more than I can ever link too!} e-books, and never ending advice here to help you along I cant recommend it enough, myself. Its a habit you fall into, once you get going, that you just cant stop.

Have you seen Katie’s new album idea, “Documenting a Decade’?  Its not officially launched til Sunday, but she started it here. That will have you rummaging around for old pictures like never before! Love the idea of a whole decade summed up in a book.

Cathy has some supplies for more personal planning ahead, like this fitness journal, looks fabulous! I don’t mind making it if someone will do half the running for me

Should you be making New Years Resolutions, make sure you put them on a layout! Be kind to yourself though, make it something positive and do-able. Not like the 30 something New Years Eve’s I spent saying I would stop biting my nails – which I still haven’t

If youre thinking of a shorter project, or a one off challenge, all our DD Blog challenges are back in full swing in January – some haven’t even taken Christmas off!

Still gathering things for your days of December album, or {like me} still scrapping Christmas pictures? Then you can catch the end of the sale – every Christmas related item is 30% off til Saturday 1st January 6am EST! It’s a good time to stock up for future Christmases too. And a whole lot easier than doing anything silly, like heading for sales in Stores in town…!

Oh, and if you still need to thank Santa and his helpers, don’t forget we have a thank you card too. Not to mention plenty of artistic ‘Thank Yous’ to add to your own design. such as this one, this one and this one.

Heres to 2011! Happy New Year!
