I haven’t done one of these posts in a long while mainly because I haven’t thought about them in a while and I have kinda been on autopilot with my planning but I’m trying to be a bit more thought out with it now. I have a tone of stamps that are kinda planning related so I thought I would try to do a week using stamps; I’m really happy with how it turned out. I went for a blue-ish theme as it is freezing at the moment. I’ll work on some colour palettes when I get it figured out as I’ll be going to a vertical insert in January, more on that later!
So what I did was get some 12ogsm paper and drew a line down the middle so that it would look like Katies insert but obviously without the text on it. I started but stamping out the numbers and then the day names and my trackers. I had a bit of a mishap with some in so there are a few stray dots in the middle of the “this week” section. That’ll teach me for not keeping my hands clean while stamp. I’m a bit out of practice, to be honest.
If you have followed my blog for a while you’ll know that I used to make cards as a hobby. You can find some of my creations here. I haven’t done any in a while and still have all the stuff but I just lost interest in it. I may pick it up again but who knows. Here is the second half of the week.
I can not believe that is it the 1st of December on Friday! Where did that come from? So I thought I would do something a little special for it. I had a hunt in my stash and found this snowflake flurries stamp set from Papertrey Ink (you can’t get this anymore) and thought it would be perfect.
I got out a red and green ink and went a bit stamp mad. I wanted to still be able to write over the top of it so I inked up the stamp and then stamped it on a piece of scrap paper and then onto my planner page. I love how this has turned out. Christmassy without being too much. I then just stamped a sentiment over the top. Be sure to follow me over on Instagram to see how this week turns out.
How is your week looking? Would this be something that I should start up again? Would you be interested in more stamping posts? Let me know in the comments below.
