Summer Journaling~ Week One Choosing your Journal

Posted on by Rebecca

 

Hello! Hope everyone had a great Sunday and Mother’s Day! Here is central Texas we already have had extremely warm days and they will not stop now through October. Usually by the time mid-July through early September we are indoors in the air conditioning trying not to melt. However, I love welcoming summer through journaling! It’s a time for family, relaxing, taking vacations and really getting memories on paper. This year we are planning more staycations and looking to visit different museums, festivals and events close to home. I’m really looking forward to exploring and having new adventures. Similar to what I created at Christmas, I wanted to create a mini video series about Summer Journaling. So welcome to the first video in the Summer Journaling video series . I thought it would be fun to share some of my techniques and maybe inspire you. This series will include 6 videos to be posted on Sunday evenings, CST. In this video, I talk about past scrapbooks and journals I have used and what I plan to use this year. Let me know if you have any questions or I would love to hear how you are planning and documenting your summer!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Planner Memory Keeping May 2018

Posted on by Rebecca

 

Hello!!! Happy National Scrapbook Day, one day later! I am about 6 weeks behind in memory keeping in my Happy Planner so yesterday, laye evening I started working to get caught up. I created this video to show you my process of making a coversheet for the month of May 2018. At the beginning of each month in the Happy Planner there is a section to list your current happenings and a quote page. I like to cover the quote page with either a theme of the month or current pictures. For the month of May I created a collage of pictures to represent Mother’s Day. Here in my process video.

On the Go~ Pocket Size Traveler’s Notebook

Posted on by Rebecca

Hello! I know…two videos in one week?! Yay! I actually wanted to show you my latest setup using a Pocket Size Traveler’s Notebook for a wallet. I always have a small notebook for jotting ideas, grocery lists and jot it down notes so I combined my wallet and my notebook into a personal size notebook.  This pretty little pocket size traveler’s notebook was actually a passport cover I purchased from Walmart last summer. I recently came across it added eyelets and elastic string and TADA it’s a  into a traveler’s notebook! I created several inserts using cardstock from past kits and I added them in. Perfect!  I also added a stretchy phone pocket to carry my driver’s license, insurance cards and debit cards. So far it’s working out great and has freed up a lot of room in my carry along purse. I also show you a quick review of my Bando planner aka my life planner.
Thanks for watching!
