hello everyone and welcome to a little flashback into my memory planner.
all the way back to february to be exact.
gosh...february. what in the world. that seems so far away, but yet not so long ago.
anyway, back to the memory planner.
i thought it would be fun to share just how easy it is to use product from a collection in 5 different ways. sometimes it can seem so overwhelming, but honestly in the end it all fits together like a perfectly made puzzle.
this week i chose to showcase art walk.
one of my favourite collections.
i love the artsy mixed media vibe, but with zero mess.
i loved using the following 5 products to pull my entire spread together.
i used the 6x8 paper pad, definition stickers, washi tape, 6x12 sticker sheet and alpha stickers primarily in this layout. all from art walk. they all play a different role in helping to bring the week together.
paper from the 6x8 paper pad lends itself beautifully to filling up otherwise empty blank space. i also created some photo corners out of the paper as well as titles to prompt journaling.
the black alpha stickers make for great headings. i love these bold letters. they captivate instantly. also definition stickers are a great addition when wanting to add a bit of 'emotion' to a page. the compliment photos beautifully and enhance the overall mood of a page.
i used stickers from the 6x12 sticker sheet to not only add additonal fun details, but the labels that come with the set are also fabulous for journaling spots
the colorful washi also adds the perfect amount of color. not only does it look great as a decorative detail but it also a gread addition to add on top of photos. can never go wrong with coordinating washi tape. it is one of my favourite ways to add photos into my planner, and the beautiful designs. happiness right here.
at the end of the day, the moral of my story...this story is that it does not have to be complicated. supplies used in the most basic of ways all work together so easily that it makes the end game look like it took forever. which honestly was hardly the case. i only wish i had uninterrupted hours to memory plan!
so in summary:
-paper pads are amazing tools to use. use patterns to fill up empty space or create additional elements such as die cuts. for instance with this particular pattern paper from art walk i was able to cut apart the words and create titles.
-definition stickers are a great way to caption a photo, add extra sentiment to journaling and they just look awesome.
-washi tape is not only a standard decorative/functional piece but it also looks great securing photos on a spread.
-alphabet stickers are fabulous to combine and create custom headings and titles.
-sticker sheets are a great investment. not only do they come with a variety of options, but most of the time they come with labels that offer great places to journal as well.
i hope that these tips are helpful in beginning your memory planner journey. they are great little tools to help create beautiful memorable spreads that also provide a lot of functional practicality as well.
plus, they are just so fun and awesome.
