Today is 5 days until Star Wars day (May 4th) and we are watching Episode 2 - Attack of the Clones tonight.  Here is a picture of my planner and some cute notebook I picked up at Target.

To complete this week I used more of the skinny Washi Tape in different colors and added the Bobba Fett and Storm Trooper stickers (and for you die hard Star Wars fans, yes I know it's not a clone trooper but I had to use what I had lol)

Stop by tomorrow for another episode of Star Wars - The countdown.

Plan With Me/Project 365

Hi all, I am up today with a new YouTube video for March Plan With Me/Project 365. I am showing I use the Simple Stories Carpe Diem planner to plan and highlight my Project 365 Photo a day as well.

Here are a few photos from the memory keeping side of things.

I am using the Simple Stories 6x8 page protectors to hold my photos and I show you how to add them into the planner binder in the video.

I write out all the details on the last page of the month then add number stickers to correspond to the photos.

Thanks for stopping by and I will see you next month with a new Plan With Me/Project 365 video.

Planning Fun

I wanted to share how I set up my daily sheets in my Carpe Diem to prepare for the month ahead. I try and get them done at least a week or two before the end of the month and sometimes when I have time I will do 2 or three months ahead. I am keeping it pretty simple just using the washi tape to separate the days. I add in the usual work and extracurricular kids stuff first.

Then I fill in the birthdays and any other important events and highlight those with stickers.

I keep the post it note holder bookmark from Simple Stories on the day I am working on and then if I need to make a quick note I have one right there.

Then I add in the insert for my Project 365 and pick a coloured number that works with the pattern on the paper. I clip that in with one of the magnet clips. You can see I have all ready added 2 photos that I printed out.

Thanks for stopping by.

Project 365 - Planner Style

I am using the Carpe Diem A5 planner from Simple Stories to do my Project 365. I finally got around to finishing January up and so far I love it. On the last page of the month inserts there is a blank lined page so I numbered it 1 - 31 for the days of the month then briefly wrote a description of the photo I took that day.

I added a Simple Stories insert by adding washi tape and re-punching the holes then added photos from the month using the number stickers that come with the planner collection on the photos.

So far I am in love with this. The planner part has everything we do from day to day then the insert will have photos highlighting the month. The Planner world and the Scrapbooking world all in one - BAM!

Thanks for stopping by.

Carpe Diem Planner Set Up

I am using the Simple Stories Carpe Diem planner for a planner/my 365 album this year. Here is how I am setting it up (you can see a video on my YouTube channel).

I am using the Robin Egg planner look how gorgeous it is.

I added a Maggie Holmes tassel that matched perfectly and used the inside pockets for extra stickers and accessories.

This is the monthly view and I will keep that one pretty simple just the important stuff.

I love the little sticky note today divider and will get lots of use out of these cute sticky notes.

The week view has plenty of room to write and decorate.

I will also be adding in page protectors to add my photos, this is a Simple Stories 2x2 page protector and I just re-punched the holes so it fit on the rings,

I will be adding my photos from every day and using the last note page to write down what went on that month and what each photo was about.

I can't wait to start using this planner it's so pretty.

Thanks for stopping by.
