Plan With Me!

Hello everyone! Thank you all for so many good wishes. I am still recovering from my surgery last week and am feeling better everyday. The pathology reports were benign. We are slowly shifting into a lighter mood around here.

I was up in the studio today relaxing and playing with my planner so I turned on the video camera. Planning has helped me to keep my stress level down and be more productive. Like so many of you, I tried using my computer calendar. There is nothing quite like paper and pen.

Using some fun stickers and washi in my planner keeps it fun. If it's fun, I'm more likely to do it.

On Sundays, I sit down with my computer and planner and fill things in. I keep a little notebook tucked into the back of my planner so that when, for instance I mention Patty Kelly's Etsy Shop in connection with some stickers I showed in my video, I can make a note to myself to be sure and link her shop.

These clip are simple to put together with die cuts, buttons, charms, tassels. If I'm using paper, I laminate it first so that it's more durable. If you don't have a laminator, put some Glossy Accents on it and that'll make it stronger. GA is a thick glue. It adds a thick, very clear, glossy coating to your item. I also used Superglue, a glue gun, regular paper clips and paper scraps to assemble. Washi tape makes quick page markers too. It's not high art but it sure is fun.

I hope that you enjoy my play session and that it's a help to you. I'm not exactly a "Planner Girl" but who doesn't love stationary? Enjoy the video! If you choose to watch it on YouTube, please subscribe and give me a thumbs up. That's how YouTube knows that you'd like to see more from me. And I love comments :)
