Live Simply Planning!
August 12 2019 – My Carpe Diem Admin
Hello lovely friends! It’s Kylie back with you on the blog today and I’m really excited to be sharing with you how I have set up my ‘Live Simply’ planner. I’ve really fallen in love with the spiral bound planners and since the Live Simply planner begins its dated year in August 2019 , I couldn’t wait to get started with it. It is dated for an 18 month period.
The pages and dividers in this planner are already so beautiful with the colours and graphics, but I couldn’t help prettying up my pages a little more with the Live Simply sticker tablet. I also added a few left over bits and pieces I had from the Spring Farmhouse collection by Simple Stories. It was a perfect match.
On the inside of the front cover is a fantastic, deep pocket for storing lots of stickers, receipts or photos. I added some pretty floral die cuts to the top edge for extra colour.
I love adding my own personal touches to my planner so I made my own custom dashboard for the front. I was lucky to have a planner punch in my craft stash that can be used for a ring bound planner.It’s great to add some extra tip ins throughout.
For the months of the year overview pages I think I will be adding birthdays to them. I’ve added some of the adorable decorative stickers to the two pages.
I really enjoy having a monthly target page in my planner. It’s great as an overview page to add important stand out dates or birthday’s etc. It’s also ideal for goals and to-do’s lists. At the end of a month you can look back at this page in a memory keeping sense.
I’ve filled a few of the empty boxes on my monthly pages with the cute and colourful box stickers from the sticker tablet. Again, I have added colour to my page with the icon and decorative stickers as well.
In my craft stash I had some coloured alpha stickers that were a great match for my planner. I like to use these in my weekly spreads to highlight important events and reminders.There is a lot of space to write in for each day which I love and it gives me plenty of room for adding in lots of decorative elements. This is what I love most about planning, being able to customise my pages differently each week and I find it to be quite a therapeutic process.
Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you have enjoyed seeing inside my ‘Live Simply’ planner.Until next time,
Kylie
