Hello Cali

We are taking a quick visit to California/Disneyland soon and I decided to use up my stash and make a mini album with the Pink Paislee flamingo and gold Instagram album, it's so pretty.

I am using the Amy Tangerine Finders Keepers collection for the inside, it's perfect for this Cali girl.

I am keeping the inside simple as I will need room to journal and add photos.

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.

Wizard of Oz - Part 1

Well the Wizard of Oz has wrapped up which makes me sad and happy at the same time. I loved seeing my son in his element doing his thing and loving every minute, but I am happy that things will hopefully get a little quieter and less driving for a while.

I have been doing a Midori for each of Linden's shows and finally got around to starting this one over the holidays.I am using this fun leather Midori from Foxy Fix, it reminded me of a rainbow like the song from the show, Somewhere over the Rainbow.

I am using the Amy Tangerine Finders Keepers collection to make the books. I made three books to go inside the Midori, one for audition/getting ready, one for the actual show and the last one will be for the cast autographs.

I layered some journaling cards, paper and embellishments on the cover of each one.

I will be sharing the inside of the book and how I created these Friday on my YouTube channel.

2016

Hi all, Happy New Year!

Every year I join Ali Edwards in picking One Little Word to use for the year and this year I have chosen FOCUS.

Focus is defined as:

To concentrate, to direct one's attention or efforts, the centre of interest or activity

This year I want to FOCUS on my family and to help them achieve their goals and dreams, I want to FOCUS on my own goals and dreams and figure out what they are and how I can get them, I want to Focus on being happy and living in the moment and I want to Focus on getting healthy.

Every year I make a visual reminder of my word and put it somewhere I always see it. This year I made a little canvas with the Amy Tangerine collection that I know she made just for me, I mean those palm trees love!

Did you pick a word for 2016?  If so please share it.

Thanks for stopping by.
