Trying To Be More Organized

Good Morning!

I've got a few photos to share with you, of a project I'm working on at the moment and it's not crochet! I'm making a craft planner to try and organize my time a little better. I was inspired to make it by one of Lilibee's lovely classes and a planner kit, that I wish I'd bought when it was out! The folder is upcycled, it was a guide to money for new parents, given to me by my midwife.



To decorate the planner I used papers and embellishments from Sassafras-Sunshine Lollipop, Prima-Rebellious, American Crafts-Craft Fair and Blue Skies, Cosmo Cricket-Nutmeg. I've also used Red Velvet Art Paper Dolls, embroidery patterns and some black and white colouring book illustrations which came free with the RVA Small Craft Class that I took last year.




 To make the page tabs, I downloaded and printed off some free fonts from dafont.com, onto printable acetate. Since taking this photo I have changed it a little bit and double up on the months, because the planner was filling up too fast and it only had dividers in it!


More to come soon!

Be Inspired

Hi, thanks to everyone who sent Birthday wishes to Tony! We had a lovely weekend.

I've just been having a hop around the internet looking at pretty Christmassy things and came across this gorgeous free E-zine, that's right I said FREE! I still can't get over that, because it is so good. If you haven't seen it yet, then you really should go have a look. Now all I need to do is learn how to magic up some time!

Abracadabra more time for crafter....

Inspire co



Oh, no that didn't seem work. Ah well!
