Down On the Farm!

I love it when I can add such fun decorations to my functional planner!  That is where the Doodlebug Down on the Farm goodies come in!

Isn't that just fun?  I was able to set several scenes through out the page without losing even one bit of room.  I can still get in all of the important things!

See?  To Do lists and meal planning all in one spot - loving those Teensy Type alphabet stickers, they do their job AND look cute, right?!

Also, the small little flowers make the perfect bullet points -- they are cute AND help the activities stand out.

See?  Decorating for a birthday is so fun - loved this scene in my planner.  It was super fun and totally fit the occasion!

Adding the doily to the mix really gives the page a little bit of texture but isn't a problem at all!  It layers under the Chit Chat and just makes the cluster of embellishments/die cuts even more special!

Planning With Alphabet Stickers

Hello there!

It's no secret that I love a little variety in my planning.  I'm always looking for ways to innovate and make the planning process more efficient and more fun at the same time.

I've been using alphabet stamps in my planning for a while now as it makes it easy to identify and label re-occurring themes.  When I saw the Doodlebug Abigail alphabet stickers I KNEW they would be perfect for this.  They are just so cute and the perfect size.

I love the yellow and how it just pops on the page!  Not only that, it really provides a really fun way to jazz up the week.

Now, those alphabet stickers are perfect like that.  They are.  But they are also just so cute I thought they should be a focal point.  I mean, they are decorative on their own.  So, I thought I would try something new.

I gathered all of my Abigail alphabet stickers and this Happy Planner® currently page. I decided that I would create a rainbow of alphas + highlight the important dates in April.

I drew faint diagonal lines in pencil then followed the Roy G. Biv color palette and set off to create an Abigail rainbow around the important dates we have in April.

It's totally crazy and a little bit different, but it created a fun page in my planner, plus used up some of those alphas that are harder for me to find uses for.  Win-win!

How are you using the Doodlebug Abigail alphabet stickers?  We would love to see!  Tag us on social media when you use them, too!
