Yup! It's like P365, but just for December. It's a fun way to document the holiday season. Someone linked up to Ali Edwards who "started" the project. I've wanted to do one for FOREVER. Last year I started it and then was sick for 2 weeks and never got anywhere with it.

I joined Shimelle's "Journal Your Christmas" 2 years ago as well, and that can be SUPER helpful (again, I think someone linked up to it earlier in the thread). Ali's method is more organic (she has her album completed already, and then journals and tells the story as the month goes, and is totally ok with scrapping about something non-holiday in the album), so if you're a person that needs a guideline for each day, Shimelle's class can be awesome. She sends out a prompt for each day. I tend to not follow the prompts exactly, making them fit my needs. For example she always has a prompt about the weather, but it might come on the day that we go out and pick our tree. So I "save" that prompt for another day when I might not necessarily have something going on. I like to mix and match my project like that.
