Week 40 (2017)

Hello again,

Hope you're all enjoying the new season we're in. I've been enjoying getting my wellies and woolly jumpers back out from the back of the wardrobe. There'll be lots of autumn walkies to enjoy. I'm not a huge fan of hot weather so Autumn time is when I start to feel like I can enjoy going out again - sooo much nicer now I don't need to think about sun cream, insect repellent and how many bottles of water I need to stop myself from dehydrating. Yes, I'm not the happiest of creatures in the summer, but there's nothing like a walk through autumn leaves and curling up under a blanket when I get home to make me feel better again. With that in mind, I have a beutiful sticker kit from Mrs Brimbles to share with you. I love, love, LOVE watercolour and animals so these guys are perfect.

I think the fox is my favourite - how about you? I love fur effect Anna created with the watercolour - just so huggably soft. Also he reminds me a bit of my housemates dog, so what's not to love?

Mrs Brimbles Sticker Club October 2017: Watercolour Autumn

Hi Guys,

Well it seems like forever since I shared anything here. I've been pretty busy with work but I've got lots of crafty things planned over the next few days and weeks so I'm hoping to get back into the flow of things again.

So, to kick things off I've got the very beautiful October Sticker Club Kit from Mrs Brimbles to share with you. There were two options this month and I went for the adorable watercolour animals - of course. The other option is an equally awesome halloween kit so if fluffy animals aren't your thing (...unlikley but maybe that applies to someone out there!) then there's another option out there for you.

The first sheet of the kit is the super cute animal deco.  I love the fox , he's just gorgeous:

Week 33 (2017)

Hi planner people!

I hope everything is going well in your plannerverse. It's certainly been busy in mine. All the more reason to make sure my planner game is on point. This week has been easier than most as I get to use this great kit from Anna (Mrs Brimbles). 

Week 30 (2017)

Hi Folks!

I must have said this a million times over the last couple of months, but I'm genuinely so excited to finally share my first ever post on the Mrs Brimbles Sticker Club design team. And what better way to kick things off than with the super cute Juicy Frootz sticker set. The designs are cute, colourful -  everything I love about Anna's artwork really. 

To create my spread I started off with my Tim Holtz distress inks in Festive Berries, Spiced Marmalade and Mowed Lawn, and an ink blending tool. I used these to add some patches of colour to the background of my spread, to compliment the colours in the spread. Next I go in with washi tape from my stash, to reinforce the areas where the holes are punched, as well as to add extra interest. Since my planner spread is ultimately to keep my week organised, I then add my to do lists and place half boxes and a messy circles to draw attention to notable events throughout the week. Next I used functional stickers from the kit and from my stash to emphasise certain tasks I need to complete. Finally, I fill in any blank spaces with deco stickers - which, of course, is my favourite part of all. Anna also included some great phrase stickers which I love. And there you have it, week 30 sorted!

Mrs Brimbles Sticker Club July 2017 : Juicy Frootz

Hey guys,

Well I've finally gotten round to sharing these beautiful stickers with you - they're from The Mrs Brimbles Sticker Club. I was lucky enough to be chosen for Anna's design team so I've had the stickers for a few days now and I have to say I'm completely in love them - Anna is a very talente lady!

Week 25 (2017) Planner Spread

Happy Sunday everyone,

Hope things are as sunny with you as they are over my way. I was inspired by the beautiful weather, to create a planner spread using tropical flowers and butterflies. I created my own stickers using clip art from various Etsy stores. I used a combination of watercolour and photograhic images - always a beaufiful coombination I think!

Wish You Were Here Journaling Page

Hello and goodnight!

Phew, well I've finally got to the end of my posts for today. I'll leave you with this journaling page that I started during Geraldine's session at Cambs Planner Con. We were all given some journaling cards/ephemera, stickers and colour mist to play with and then we got on with creating. I hadn't done much creative journaling before but it was great fun and definately something I want to try more of:

Week 17 (2017) Planner Spread

Hello,

Well, here goes nothing - my first ever share of a planner spread! Both of the planner pages I'm sharing are older ones I'm particularly happy with. Actually their both form around the time of Cambs Planner Con when, of course, I will feeling particularly motivated to do beautiful things with my planner:
