Good morning, I am here today with my final layout for Scrapping Clearly of the month and its a mad dash to make sure everything is labelled and ready to go for the first day back to school...... can you tell I am really excited?!!!! The kids not so much, I cant imagine why? 

I am sharing another birthday layout and if your anything like me, your way behind in scrapping these moments, sure I had great intentions not to get to far behind, at one point I was only 2 years behind now if I am completely honest I am about 7 years behind now. I often ask how did that happen!!! So with my project 365 layouts..... hopefully I can cut a year or two off the list..... might have to go organize my photos in year groups again, to keep me on task.

Celebrate

Good morning I am here today for Scrapping Clearly with another layout using My Minds Eye - My  Story range. I have decided that for this year I have set myself a task of doing 365 layouts!!! I know insanity!!! 

I have to admit it, my mojo flows best when I have deadlines, and if I don't have these deadlines I tend to do a lot of paper shuffling and not much more. I last year for 2015 did 224 layouts and 37 canvases, so I figured it wasn't too much of a stretch, as long as I do 7 layouts a week....... 

So no more procrastination!!! is all about scrapping the photos I have and to just get on with it instead of worrying about the perfect embellishments or papers, time to re- adjust and re-focus on the photos and the stories that make up our day to day lives.

Happy Cake Day

 Good morning I am here  for Scrapping Clearly with another layout using the stunning My Minds Eye - My Story range and I would say in store now, but theres only a few bits of it left, after our huge 50% off sale over the weekend and wow did you all go nuts and shopped up a store!!!! But that being said there are still pieces of this range in store.

Today I am sharing a layout for those who have boys in your life, this is something that I love about this range, the fact that you can do both girl and boy layouts out of the range makes it great value and perfect to have in your stash.

There are plenty options in the MME My Story Wooden Veneer Shapes pack.

The My Minds Eye Rub ons are so easy to use and they even have some metallic ones too!!!!

Planning Planners????????????

Good Morning I am here for Scrapping Clearly today with a planning a planner post. I am lost without my Kikki K planner it has my life - iterally in it. I know our phones have loads of app to keep track of our lives but I have to say that I am a little bit more old school when it comes to keeping track, there's just something about writing it down that helps me recall the information.

As I am new to the making planners pretty stuff (nothing about my Kikki K one is pretty eg with photos and washi etc), I will be sharing each month the things I have learnt, how my style will change throughout the year. So we will be learning together. 

So I will be keeping my Kikki K planner and also working with a beautiful Heidi Swapp planner...... the idea is that I will keep life stuff like bills due, blog post info in my Kikki K and using my Heidi Swapp one as a review/reflection of the family stuff that we did over that month, so by the end of the year I will have a mini album that will also assist in helping me remember the events of the year, as a reference to my normal layouts. 

So my start point was to gather some supplies that I think I will want to use throughout the planner, I know that I want to keep my planner quite flat on the inside, to keep the planner from over flowing. I also know I want to be able to add envelopes and pockets to store memorabilia throughout the year so its sorted and stored without a lot of work going into that process. 

Washi tape is a must, I find that with three kids all over the place and with school holidays its an easy to colour code these things without writing it all over the planner, it really saved me this year so I will be carrying it over to 2016.

The next thing will be about the pen!!!! I dont want it to bleed through, feather out, I want it to be nice and thin also. So for those who have done this before..... what are you using? What should I stay away from?

How cute are these Heidi Swapp Clear Cards ? - In store now!!!!

You will be pleased to know that the rest of the Design Team will be doing the same with a number of different planners each month. So stay tuned to see what they create. 

Also to see how the first month goes for myself.

Till next time, have a creative day.
