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. :)

THINK PINK I PLANNER PRINTABLE

the month of october is all about pink.

raising awareness for breast cancer.

awareness for us as woman to stand together united on all fronts.

whether it be for yourself, for someone you personally know....for making an annual mammogram appointment, doing a self check, taking part in a charity event or making a donation.  

this month is an important one for us as women.

i wanted to make a special addition into my planner this month.  in honour of breast cancer awareness and to serve as a visual reminder of what this month represents and it's importance in the fight.

i created this printable in photoshop and printed it out on minc acetate paper. (you can see a full tutorial on using acetate paper and the minc machine here)
once it was printed i ran it through my minc machine with pink foil.

the metallic shine always takes my breath away.

once i had the print foiled, i trimmed it down to 6x8 inches so that it would fit perfectly into my planner.  i added a piece of bazzill rose quartz card stock behind it, also trimmed to size.  i love the pink foil against the rose gold.  such beautiful colours together.

once i had both papers trimmed to size, i used my memory planner hole punch to punch corresponding holes.

placing these words into my planner gives this month extra meaning.  such a powerful and important reminder.

i made this print available for you to print below.  be sure to print it out on a laser printer if you are wanting to add foil to it with the minc.  you can print it out on regular paper, card stock, vellum or acetate.  

this truly is the month to #thinkpink.

i always look forward to this time of the month!

memory planner review.

it really is awesome (and SO WORTH IT) to see how my memories fill the pages.  and yes...all those LITTLE things that really in the moment don't seem all that memorable.... become my favourite memories as i re-read them.  for that... i am beyond grateful.
it really is worth the time.  i promise you.

the full reveal of my april planner is the featured post over on the scrapbook and cards today blog.

this month i wanted to share how i am using one of my most favourite tools; the heidi swapp minc machine to incorporate personalized and customized foil touches into my planner.

it is SO easy...yet the results are WOW factor....every time!

so please take a moment and stop by if you have not yet already and learn about just how amazing the MINC tool is....and how phenomenal it works with a planner!
