February layout from SCT planner sketch

Another layout!!!
Another layout where I used Scrapbook & Cards Today sketch from my planner.
It is the sketch from February.
If you had noticed all of my layouts from these sketches have been not only Christmas themed layouts, but they have all been on my grandson Sawyer ;)

I started a tradition with Sawyer, where I read him "Twas the Night Before Christmas" on Christmas Eve.
When my daughter's were young, we would read from this Christmas book all during the holiday season, then when they were old enough to read, they would read the stories to me.
So I love that I could continue this with my grandson :)

I knew I wanted to scrapbook this tradition, but when I found this paper with the whole story written on it from Graphic 45's "Christmas Past" collection...I just knew I needed to use this paper...how perfect!!!!
For the title I used my label maker with gold backing and backed it with papers from Recollections "Joyful Christmas" collection.

I love this little cluster I created in the corner.
I cut the tag with my Stampin' Up tag punch from the Recollections paper.
The doily was inked with Distress ink and the ornament piece was from a Christmas gift tag that I kept as I thought it was to pretty to get rid of ;)
If you look closely, you can see a bit of sparkly  thin thread. I purchased a whole collection of different colours from the dollar store before Christmas.

Here is the sketch provided by Scrapbook & Cards Today in my Creative Planner I purchased from them.
Just to show that being it was a sketch for February and was mainly a heart themed layout, I took it in a whole new way.
I used a square shape instead of the heart, and my cluster was in the opposite corner of the layout
Mind you I would love to do a heart layout as well ;)

I actually made my layout in December, before I even made the January layout.
But I wanted a double page layout for this one, and February's sketch fit perfectly for this page.
Here are both of the pages side by side...February and December's.
To see a closer look at December's layout check out This post

Because both of these have photos on the layouts...I can count them as complete...right Kristy?!

I hope you all have a very Creative Day :)

December's layout from SCT planner sketch

I have been making scrapbooking pages!!!
Mind you, all of them have been of my little cutie Sawyer.
One of my many goals for this year is to do more scrapbooking.
To help me with this goal, I have challenged myself to do all of the monthly sketches in my Planner from SCT creative planner.

We have a beautiful book filled with Christmas stories.
And every year my daughters and I would read a story a night, until Christmas.
So I have continued the tradition with my grandson Sawyer.
I read him "Twas the Night Before Christmas" on Christmas Eve.
I love the border as it is the last sentence in the story.

I used these very old rub-on I had in my Christmas stash.
The rub-on pulled apart....but I salvaged it :)
All of the papers are from a Recollections pack...I love the sparkle to the border.

I used this reindeer paper clip I bought last year from Stampin' up.

I used this sketch from the SCT Creative Planner.
I changed up the layout a bit to suit my photos.
I kept the border strip to the side, but turned the rest of the layout.

There is a second page to this one, but I used the layout for February for that one, so I will wait to share that one ;)

Here is the planner that I am using for my creative planner this year as well as where I found this sketch.

I hope you all have a very Creative Day :)

My 2017 Planners

Here are my planners that I have been using this year...so far ;)
I picked up the Recollections planner and a planner from Scrapbook & Cards Today.
I usually use a Day Timer planner, but thought I would change it up a bit this year.
I liked the layout of the Recollections planner as it seemed like it is geared more to lists...which I enjoy making.
I am using this planner for Home, Family and Personal.

This Creative Planner is just that...I am using it for my creative ideas, goals and challenges.
I usually cut this planner out of its rings and re-punch holes for a different notebook to put them in.
Here is how I have used this planner in the past "Creative Planner"
I also picked up the stamp set from SCT...you can never have enough planner stamps ;)

I had picked up some of these planner stickers.
The only thing about these stickers is that they don't fit the spaces in the Recollections planner...but nothing a bit of trimming couldn't fix.
I wish I knew how to make my own stickers as there are a few that I would love to use daily or weekly.

Here is a video on my planners :)
If you would rather watch the video on my YouTube channel...here's the link "Tracy's Treasures24"

I hope you all have a very Creative Day :)
