Papercraft Haven and More

When it comes right down to it - I can't tell you "exactly" how I stumbled upon this idea - but I am thinking I got the original idea from Pinterest , then I went off to YouTube for the video as to how to make it !!!  I found this gal SuperHap pyScrapper and her folio album instructions - and went to creating my own!  This is the kind of album where a video is better to show you than the pictures I have , in order to see all the little details and intricate pieces of the project!  Watch t he video's to create your own folio album, and this is MY take on this a wesome style of albums!!!     Supplies used:   White cardstock Pa tterned paper - used Crate Paper Hello Love and papers from stash Sizzix d ie cuts - flowers, vine, heart (3 different styles), butterfly, Punches - sun, flower , hearts Bling pack   R u b on's from my stash Stickers also from stash         I hope you enjoy the album - perso...

When I start to pick out stamps to use - I don't just look at the set and decide if I like it - to buy it!!!  I look at the stamp or set I would be purchasing, and I think about how many different ways I can use it!!!  I also do this same thing when I purchase a die cut set as well!  It makes it so I can purchase different sets of things to go with other different sets of things...  AND - if I can use that set on more than one "thing" - it makes the purchase that much better!!!  Stampin' Up stamps make it easy to purchase one set - and then add it to another one, or another one!  They have an awesome tin of cards - (I will be doing a class with this tin) - not only will you make the cards within the tin - but I will also be showing you how to use those same stamps, and use them with other stamp sets to create your own stash of cards!  This class will help you get the cards done, AND be able to make more when you are don e using those ...

I have been working on my planner - you can see the other two posts for week one and week two's here so you can catch up!!!!  As I started to get everything done - I noticed the extra dividers were not going to work for me the way I wanted it to.....it would make my planner way too fat!  Instead, I am going to work on something a bit "different" - I can't wait to share it with you all when I get it all designed and planned out!    The dividers - I am still working on them, but I love how they look so far!  I have added them to my planner - as well as the things for each section I will need (notice the clips at the top of the dividers) to add to each section!!!  I am working on my own pages for my planner - and will have them ready for you to download if you would like a copy of them!  They are simple - ready for you to add your own customization to each set of pages - stamps, clips, markers, washi tape, your own embellishments, whatever!!!! B...

If you missed the first post for my planner pages, you can check out week 1 here !!!  I have a ton of things going on at once, the main thing - I am an unorganized MESS where getting things done is concerned!  I wanted a planner that was perfect for me personally - but I simply can't spend a lot of money (much like everything I create) right now on planners!!!  I also couldn't find a set of pages that was perfect for me personally, and how I wanted to organize things!  I have a business side, a work side, and a personal side...and I want all three in one basic area - and then I can organize things from there!!!  I also wanted to be able to grab stamps, and simply add those fun little details and embellishments to each of the pages!     This week's plans for my planner: Get front cover designed Get sections decided on and designed Finish up planner pages Get a system for organizing life using this planner Create paper clip embelli...
