scrapbook layout “planner girl”

August 24, 2016

plannergirl1So I’ve been trying to build up my gallery ever since I returned home from my recent Eurotrip. My intention is to apply to a couple of creative team or design team calls that various scrapbooking companies announce this time of year. I’ve never been on a creative or design team before and I’ve always been so curious about it. My friend has been encouraging me to apply to the many that a call has been announced, but I’m both super picky and a bit hesitant because I’m not sure what my scrapbook style really is–I know I have one, I just can’t describe it for the life of me–and what company it would fit well with. Off the bat though, my intention is to apply to Felicity Jane, Crate Paper and Simple Stories if they ever have an open call because I really like their products. (For the record, I did apply to Felicity Jane since the deadline was this past July and I didn’t make it. But it was my first DT application that I’ve ever done and I’m just surprised I hit that send button!)

Now, layouts aren’t really my strong suit, which sucks because a lot of places want to see layouts. I’m more of a mini book maker. I just like albums in a bookish form, preferably ones that I make by hand. So building that particular gallery has been challenging. Luckily most places only ask for one or two layouts within the compilation of works you decide to send them. Even so, I have like one or two really good ones if any. So I started playing around again and made this particular layout for the Hit Kit Club application that I’ve been sitting on. (It’s due August 26th by 11:59 PDT, so I should really finalize it and make up my mind and hit send). I just get super nervous right after I take the time to fill out these applications. Win or lose, I know I’ll still scrapbook, but there’s something gratifying to know that a company you really admire likes your work so much they want you to work with them.

Anyway, I made this layout using the “Note to Self” kit from Felicity Jane. I still have quite a bit of it lying around from my Summer Stories mini and since it was already at hand, I just decided to use it to make a few layouts. This layout in particular was inspired by that Planner Girl wood veneer I got in one of my Planner Society Kits and I knew I wanted to use it. For this layout, I decided to film a little process video. I do a lot of process videos for my art journaling, memory planner and now my new Scrap With Love series, but I’ve never done one for a layout–though I guess it’s cause I don’t make layouts often. But I decided to give it a go and wow is it amazing to see your process and how your layouts unfold! I don’t think we really pay attention to our process until we see our process. Anyway, I do hope you enjoy!

I absolutely adore this passage about Spring from Jeanette Winterson.

Happy Astrological New Year! xx

Baby boy is 15 years old today! He's no little boy anymore, but a fine old senior dog (actually I think technically he's geriatric). He's definitely slowed down quite a bit with his thyroid problem and just general old age. C19 has definitely been really hard on him. He was struggling with his hyperactive thyroid all through 2020 and no one could figure out why he was so sad and blah until mid-2021 when he got properly diagnosed. But since being on his meds, he's got that puppy spirit again! He does have some separation anxiety now and literally needs to be with people constantly. But that's a given especially since there's always someone home now for him to be with. But it's getting better though! The absolute highlight of his week though is going over to our neighbor's apartment every Tuesday as I tutor one of the girls in math. He gets SO happy then because he gets to play lol. HBD Joey! xx

Driftwood—documenting the signs and synchronicities I see in my life. I'm paying attention to these little coincidences of life. At the beginning of the year, I took @gabbybernstein's manifestation challenge and she had us choose something to be our sign so that whenever we see it, it's a sign from the Universe that what we want is actually on the way. I chose "seeing hearts" because it felt right and aligned with my guiding word for the year, Heart. Gabby asked us to keep a list of all the driftwood we collect, and my god have I been seeing hearts. And while what I desire might not happen right away, I feel like this is the Universe’s way of telling me to trust—to let go and trust.

Into the unraveling journal it all goes. Happy Friday loves. xx

Oh hey, shamelessly sharing this for #thursday3 because tbh I need a different type of photo to break up the feed...

✩ I've been feeling really lost and stagnant in life lately—actually for the last couple of months. Just going through the motions and the sheer monotony of life. I'm not used to doing the same sorts of things day in and day out (probably why I never had a 9 to 5 before). It's kind of boring and that makes me sad. To be fair, I am really blessed and I love my job, but it's a job and not my life, and while I thought getting my ideal job would make me happy, it hasn't. So I've been trying to figure out why that is and what's missing. (Also still going through old shit, but we won't talk about that again.)

✩ I've been playing around with a test WordPress installation on my server and building a little social network-like community on there. It looks super neat, but I honestly don't know if I'll do anything with it. I'm not very good at community building lol. The number of times I've tried, it just never builds as I hope. But like, I'm just really not very good at it! I'm more of a participant than a host. But this site is looking super cool!! It's basically Facebook but not. It's better and I haven't a clue if I should open it up to people to join. Would you actively participate in it?

✩ While I hate the motion of changing the clocks backward and forward, I'm loving the extra daylight! It's making me really happy to finish work around 6 pm and it still being light out. I can't wait for spring!

How are you loves? I hope everyone is well. Happy Thursday! xx

Documenting my One Little Word in my #unravelingjournal.

I love my word Heart for this year. If you've seen a particular Youtube video of mine, you would know why I chose it, but by documenting it in my journal and simply carrying it around with me I realized it contains multitudes!!! I love how I can visually document it so effortlessly since it's a symbol and a shape. I also embrace its many layers and meaning. I'm just in love with my word. She's a winner. xx

I shared a look at the January pages I made in my unraveling journal the other day on my new website tiffanyjulia.com. I've been working in this journal pretty much on the down low while I've been working on a new project. I quite like how some of these pages turned out. I'll share them all here in the coming days. xx
