I think it would be difficult for me to do this whole project, without it!
Since the first planner went only through April, I've made my second. The inside looks very similar to my first one -- and I used Traci Reed's template again -- so I'll just share how I did the cover! I am super happy with it!
It all started with a bunch of random washi tape on white card stock:
You know when you are working on a project using washi tape, and there are parts that aren't used -- like you grab too much off the roll, or you change your mind or whatever? Well, if I remember, I stick it on card stock. When I have enough, I seal it with Matte Medium or Mod Podge or something similar (I use this). For this project, I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out some butterflies from this paper for my flowers.
I am in the middle of LOAD (LayOut A Day) and playing catch up with project life (I am pretty much done through April, but very behind with my sharing!). This time of year is so busy at work, so I'll only be sharing here now and again. Then I hope to be able to share more regularly again this summer! Eighteen school days left! :-)
I am using LOAD to work on Bea's first year of life. Before May I had only one page of her first year! YIKES! Here are a few sneaky sneaks. I will share the full layouts soon!
Looks great! Love the washi and the music paper peeking t
