JULY I STORYLINE CHAPTERS PLANNER MONTH AT A GLANCE

wrapping up the month in my storyline chapters planner notebook is always a highlight and so much fun to complete. i love taking the key memories and moments that filled our month and documenting them in this 'birds eye view' type spread.

i always begin with printing out my highlight photos of the month.  i use the heidi swapp photo paper that is amazing to work with. not only are the photos beautiful quality, but the photos are stickers and the templates fit the planner pages perfectly.  it is such a foolproof way to get what i need quickly and easily done with minimal hassle!

i also included a lot of the the printable from this months 'stop the blur' class.  i simply printed on a laser label so that i can cut out and adhere, again with little to no fuss.  such an easy way to turn your printables into stickers.

a lot of this month centered around enjoying every possible sunny day we can get our hands on (as we have been bombarded with tons of rain), family camping, the beach and even a weekend getaway to the mountains.  it has been full and fun, simple and sometimes overwhelming too. but forever memorable nonetheless.

it really is amazing how the little details serve to kickstart the memories and the moments.  grateful for this little passageway to the past where i can remember and reflect on what we have done, where we have been and where we have yet to go.

if you are looking for more inspiration or ideas to get started on your own memory planning journey i really suggest you check out heidi's online class called 'stop the blur'.  it is an incredible resource full of ideas and inspiration to get you started documenting your very own journey.  i love it and i know you will too. :)

NATIONAL CREATIVITY DAY

happy thursday.

happy may 30th.

happiest national creativity day.

since i can remember creativity has encompassed every ounce of my being.

i loved to paint, draw, write, play with stickers, play dough.... i would literally wait ALL week until friday afternoon when it was art class.

art has always been like a best friend to me.

and now that i am an adult. well....nothing has really changed.
in fact i believe the obsession has just grew with my age. ;)
creativity and the act of being creative has literally carried me through all the ups and downs of my life.  it continues to be my healing guide when i need it most.  truly the best therapy anyone could ask for.

there are so many ways i love to be creative.  of course, being a member of the heidi swapp media team has been such a creative blessing in that it provides me even more ways to feed my soul and uplift my spirit creatively.  whether it is using my minc machine or playing with all the beautiful stickers and embellishments...

decorating all the things with all the washi.....

or playing in my memory planners.....

creating and the act of being creative is a part of who i am.

"creativity is experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes and having fun".
cheers to national creativity day.
