August Planner Decorating

Good Morning :)

I am back today to share my August Planner decorating.

I don't always get chance to decorate my weekly pages but I do like to spend some time decorating the monthly pages and the pockets.

This month I have used the C4E August kit to decorate my Carpe Diem work planner.

I didn't go too mad this month, I used some of the pretty floral paper, a few die cuts and a little washi tape.

I popped a few die cuts and journal cards in to the front pockets long with a couple of cute paper clips. I need to make some paper clips I really don't have enough! 

I love the little gnome peeking out of the bottom pocket.

I really liked the journal cards in this months kit so I made a cute dashboard using one.

So that's my work planner decorating this month, I will be back soon with a cute mini album using up some left overs from the August kit.

I'm off to lie in the grass and wish on dandelions!

Thanks for stopping by have a great weekend!

May Personal Planner Decorating

Good Morning :)

I am back today to share my decorated planner inserts from my personal planner.

The insert I have decorated is a week on two pages, these are my own design.

I have used fussy cut dots from the Make it Happen paper in the May page kit to decorate the top and bottom of the inserts.

The checklist stickers are a free download from my planner envy There are lots of gorgeous free sticker downloads there :)

The word banners are my own design printed on to cardstock. I created a selection of colours and text and they all now live in a divided storage box ready for future decorating.

That's it from me today I will be working on some more projects using the May Page kit and will share as soon as they are completed.

Have a lovely Sunday thanks for stopping by

April Personal Planner Decorating

Good Morning :)

I am back to share my personal planner decorating using the C4E April Page kit.

This planner is a purple 2 ring binder from Staples, all the dividers, page markers & inserts I have made myself. It includes my menu planning, month and weekly planning and a note/wishlist section. The binder is very robust which it needs to be with me lol!

These inserts are a week on two pages which I made myself.

I made my own number stickers using small white round stickers (from the range) coloured them with a Copic marker then wrote the numbers on them.

As with my month spread in my Carpe Diem planner I used the Kaisercraft Sea Breeze stamp set, brown Stazon ink pad and some left over bits from the April Page kit. 

Not too overly decorated leaving plenty of room for my scribbles.

I don't decorate every week but when I have some time I use what ever happens to be out on my craft desk and a few bits of stash from my planner bag.

I will be back soon with more inspiration from the April Page kit.

Have you used a page kit to decorate your planner?

Have a wonderful day thanks for stopping by

April Carpe Diem Planner Pages

Good Morning :)

Today I have some April Planner pages to share.

I am fairly new to planner decorating although I have had a planner for years.

This month I have used some left over paper pieces from the April Page kit Just Because

along with the Kaisercraft Sea Breeze stamp set and Simple Stories Carpe Diem number stickers.

First up is my month on two pages in my Aqua Carpe Diem Planner.

I use this planner for Crafts 4 Eternity.

The inserts are a free download from PenGems blog

They are a Sunday start which confuse me lol! So I printed 2 sets and moved the Sunday column to the other side.

The original Sunday column is covered with some pretty pattern paper (Refresh). 

I used a few of the Kaisercraft collectables to decorate along with stickers from the Sea Breeze sticker sheet (April Add-on kit)

The large flower (bottom center) was cut from the Waterlily pattern paper.

New to me is the concept of decorating the pockets of your planner. This month I have added some of the Kaisercraft Sea Breeze Collectables along with my April calendar card (subscribers gift). The colours of the Sea Breeze collection match my Aqua planner well :)

When I got my Carpe Diem planner I took out all of the inserts it came with, they were just too pretty to use! I hope that they will bring out refills, I might use them then lol!

I will be back soon with a decorated week on two pages from my personal planner.

Have a lovely day, thanks for stopping by
