The month of April in my Heidi Swapp memory planner is interesting. For all the weekly spreads, I used mostly my November Planner Society kit. I used up the entire kit for this month, give or take a few stickers I have left, and I really love it! I’ve been struggling with using up my kits, but I think I’ve finally figured out how I’m going to use up my…
I haven’t made a minibook in a very long time! Every year, I usually purchase Studio Calico’s Minibook Workshop Bundle. It’s a bundle of brand new minibook classes for the year. I made my DIY Minibook and my Celebrate Today minibook from the classes Maggie Holmes did for the workshop in 2014 and 2015 respectively. Last year though, I didn’t finished any other minibook class besides Maggie’s, so this year…
I’ve been a scrapbooker since late 2012, and while I’ve made tons of minibooks and Project Life spreads, I never actually made a traditional scrapbook layout. I know? How weird is that? So, to try something new–and to be quite honest, I was inspired by the Felicity Jane blog, since I’m expecting my first FJ kit–I decided to give it a go and try making my very first scrapbook layout!…
March’s planner pages are by far my favorite pages in my memory planner thus far. I picked up some of Heidi Swapp’s floral washi tape from her Marquee line at Michaels and used it throughout March’s pages, along with some stickers I bought from Twolilbees on Etsy that matched so perfectly with the entire Memory Planner line, it was just meant to be. March’s pages is very shabby chic in…
One thing I wanted to dedicate myself to this year was a new way to document my everyday for a whole year. I always did Project Life, but last year it sort of fell short and I wasn’t inspired anymore with the system. It wasn’t doing anything for me anymore. So this year, I decided to try out Heidi Swapp’s Memory Planner. I punched my Memory Planner into my Marion…
Since I decided not to continue with Project Life for this year, I finally had the chance to play with Heidi Swapp’s Memory Planner. I wanted to try her planner last year when she came out with her new system, but I had already decided to do Project Life and to keep two different albums documenting the same bits of my life just seemed a bit redundant, so I passed…
As 2015 is ending and a new year is approaching, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately of what creative projects I’m going to do in 2016. With the absence of Project Life for 2016, I have a lot more freedom to do more documenting in whatever format I want. I most particularly enjoy minibooks, so I was thinking of making 2016 the year of minibooks. What I came up with…
I am slowly catching up on my 2015 Project Life album! While it’s really exciting that I’m catching up to the present, I’m also a bit disappointed that I just didn’t–or couldn’t–keep up-to-date with it like I had hoped. One of my intentions for this year was to keep my album updated daily, but I have failed at doing that. It’s interesting, the whole idea of Project Life is to…
At the ending of last year, I had many intentions for my Project Life 2015 album. The major intention was to keep it going daily and keep up-to-date with it, so that I wasn’t trying to catch up with it weeks or even months later. Oh how I am failing. I haven’t touched my Project Life album since National Scrapbooking Day on May 2, when I decided to start it!…
Last week I got to play with a new planner I ordered and had been waiting to come in for two weeks. It’s the Filofax Butterfly Personal Organizer and I ordered it from Amazon UK because it wasn’t available on the Filofax US site and it was much cheaper to order from Amazon UK than Filofax UK. Positive first impressions. The planner is very pretty. Soft pastels with a snap…
I absolutely love a great minibook! Every year, Studio Calico offers a Minibook Library that’s filled with four minibook workshops held throughout the year. Last year I just bought Maggie Holmes’ workshop because it was the only one that interested me, but this year there are four amazing workshops for four of my favorite scrapbookers! So I bought the Library and have been trying my hand at the two workshops…
I am absolutely obsessed with planners at the moment. Having a planner is not a new thing in my life; I used to use spiral-bound Paperchase planner all through college. Borders used to sell them and every year I’d buy a new one. It really never hit me to buy myself a leather-ringed binder planner before until I discovered the beauty of a Kikki K last year. Now I’m obsessed. Granted,…
