CANDY CARNIVAL DAILY DOODLES | with Jomelle

BOO! We are halfway through October and I want to share my Daily Doodles TN Planner Set Up using the Candy Carnival Collection.

Since this collection is all about Carnival, I wanted to create my own Halloween Carnival theme for my front dashboard/insert cover. As you may know, I like to layer my embellishments so you can see here how I layered them. I also added the spider web from the own stash.

 I can't get enough of this side view. I am totally loving the sticker tabs and cute paper clips sticking out to the side. 

 The broom pen is perfect for this set up.

 Looking at all the Halloween colors and beautiful embellishments makes me so happy.

Month of October layout. I used washi, stickers and black teensy type Alphabet stickers.

My daughter loves Halloween and I cannot wait to take her Trick or Treating in her cute Halloween outfit.

Setting my Daily Doodles with Halloween theme just made my day. I love everything about Halloween. Thank you for stopping by.

I❤️TRAVEL DAILY DOODLES ALBUM | with Anabelle

It's been a long time since I scrapbooked a mini-album or a page. That's because my son is now a teen and won't even let me point the camera his way! I have always enjoyed memory keeping, but haven't had much to document lately. Then, the I Heart Travel line came into my life and I had the perfect project. I created this adorable album in the Daily Doodle Mint Travel planner and love how it turned out. This summer, I have been screen-shotting and saving pictures of my son on the Snap Chat Map. Snap Chat is the way we communicate and I can follow him on the map. His little image shows up doing all sorts of things. I thought it was really cute, so I started saving the pics. I realized, I could create a travel album of his summer adventures - this kid has been on the go since school ended - using the Snap Chat pictures along with a couple of other ones. I love how it turned out.

To make the album, I used a grid lined insert. I started off by decorating the front pocket with travel themed die cuts. I love all of the sweet elements in this collection.

I made a cover for the insert using the Happy Trails paper. I decorated it using papers and stickers. I love using Doodlepops for the added texture and dimension. 

The first page of the album is an introduction page. I love the large stickers on the This and That sticker page. They are perfect for titles!

As I said, getting actual photos of my son isn't easy. I know other parents of teens have the same problem! So, to complete my album, I had to be creative. Each page shows a place he went this summer. The first one was our trip to the beach. I added a photo of the condo where we stayed and used that to document this part of his journey.

The die cuts from the Odds and Ends pack are my favorites! I love how I can easily decorate my page with them. The beauty of memory keeping in the Daily Doodle is that I don't need a ton of supplies for each  page. I love adding texture and dimension to my pages so I popped the cloud on with foam adhesive. 

His next big adventure was going to California with his dad, uncle and cousin. Here's where the Snap Map pictures come into play. While he was away, I was able to see where he was. I LOVE how cute the Bitmojis (his little cartoon like figure) look. The airplane and luggage die cuts were perfect for this page about his time in the airports.
First, he visited the San Francisco area where his cousin lives. (Good thing he is on Snapchat so he could be in the picture, too!) I love the banners from the Chit Chats pack. It's easy to layer them across both pages of the spread. As you can see, I used the same washi throughout the book for consistency.

This page about his journey to Yosemite was kept simple on purpose. I added a few small stickers and die cuts, but the focus is on the Vacation Time paper. I used it throughout the book for matting the photos and to journal. I left it blank here so that he could list all of his favorite things about this trip. Since the album is for him, I wanted him to have some say in the journaling. This paper is perfect for him to do so.

Sometimes you have to be 'stealthy' when getting a photo of your teen. Here he is ordering a burger at our favorite spot in Nags Head. I had to hide in the car to get this shot. (Well, not actually hide, it was WAY too hot to stand in the sun, so I waited in the car and took the opportunity to grab the shot. :) ) I'm glad that he actually made an appearance in the album! 

I used the Vacation time paper again and documented the fun things we did on this trip!

On this page, about another trip to the beach, the photos take center stage. All I needed to do was add a few small die cuts and some Icon stickers.

This last page is about a boat trip he took. I love the cruise ship images and thought it would be perfect to go along with the cute photo. Adding the border strips draws the eye to the main elements of the page.

As you can see, documenting your teen's travels CAN be fun. I love how versatile the I Heart Travel line is. There was something perfect for each of his adventures. Thanks for joining me on this journey. Happy Trails!

I❤️TRAVEL DAILY - ODDS & ENDS PLANNER TIPS & TRICKS | with Jomelle

Do you want to learn an easy way to use the odds & ends pieces in your Daily Doodles TN and make it look really cute and functional at the same time? Why not layer the pieces and use washi tape to attach them to your pages. By using washi tape, you will be able to lift and open the odds & ends pieces and you will also be able to journal behind them.

 It was so much fun choosing the pieces I wanted to use. Layering them was even more fun. I used the "on the road" washi to attach them to the page.

 You can see here that I am able to lift the part open.

 I can now journal behind this piece. I also used stamps to add a little bit more detail in my layout.

 Wouldn't it be fun to lift open all these odds & ends pieces and be able to find your journal of memory keeping behind them? You can also add stickers behind the odds & ends pieces for more decor and it will make it interesting when you flip them open.

August,which is my birthday month, combine with the travel theme equals perfection. As you may know, travel is my jam. Being able to decorate my monthly layout with the travel theme is a bonus for me.

 Happy 40th Birthday to me. I am hoping to document my birthday celebrations in my Daily Doodles TN. We are hoping to go on a mini road trip to Lake Tahoe on my birthday weekend. Stay tuned and keep an eye out on my Instagram account with the completed layout.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you will try my little trick in using the odds & ends pieces in your Daily Doodles TN. Have a great day.

SCHOOL DAYS - 12 MONTH DAILY DOODLES CALENDAR | with Traci

I love calendar projects, so I decided to make one for a friend since she just started her first year of teaching. I made a 12x12 calendar page for each month of the school year, decorated them with fun pieces from School Days, and included a 12x12 ClipArt board for hanging the pages in the classroom. Although this makes a fun gift, it would also be a great project to keep track of school activities at home!

I added 2" strips of pattern paper across the top of each calendar, and strips from the "just write" pattern paper across the bottom of each page. I also added some odds & ends and white monthly daily doodle stickers at the top.

The mini icon stickers work perfectly for calendars because the smaller sizes fit into the calendar squares so nicely. That tiny little school bus is SO cute!

Little pattern squares from the 6x6 paper pad, star sprinkles, icon stickers and a few enamel dots all make these pages pop with Doodlebug color!

Finally, I had fun adding some doodle stamps here and there on each page. I love the little art easel ... it'll be a cute place to make notes for that day.

I hope I've given you another fun project idea for using School Days! Until next time ... happy scrapping!

LOTS O'DOTS DAILY DOODLE - SUMMER PLANNER PAGES | with Anabelle

I'm really enjoying using my Lots O'Dots Daily Doodle this summer. The colors are so fun and bright and perfect for these warm, lazy days. Today I'm going to share how I designed an insert to use in my planner. Since summertime is a slower time for me, I don't usually need to write as much in my weekly spread. Because of this, I don't need as much space. I decided to create a weekly format that allows me to write down the important things and gives me some space for notes or lists as they come along. Here's how my spread turned out.


Once again, I am using the Simply Spring collection (see my last blog post) because the colors and motifs are so much fun! I used a blank grid insert and decided to include Monday through Friday, since those are the days I tend to have more commitments. I started off by adding the washi to the middle of the page. Then, I used the Abigail font stickers to label the days. I added some die cuts from the Odds and Ends pack and some Fancy Frills border stickers, as well as borders from the This and That sticker page.

On the opposite page, I added a large sticker and some more smaller ones.  I used the Teensy Type to label my notes section and finished it off with the Icon stickers.

In  order to make some more writing space, I decided to create a little note attached to a large paper clip. I love how it turned out. It was so easy and adds a nice extra to the spread. I used a card from the A6 Paisley Card Assortment. I measured it against my large paper clip (these can easily be found at Staples, Target or the Dollar Store.) Then, I cut the ends off. 

I used the center piece for the To Do list. I added some die cuts and used foam adhesive to give it some dimension. I added the word 'DO" using more Abigail font stickers. I just love them. I slid the note onto the clip and then onto my page. I like that I can take it off and write on it as needed.

The Simply Spring collection continues to be one of my favorites for the summer. The florals and bright colors work perfectly in my Lots O'Dots Daily Doodle planner. I hope you found some ideas that you might use today!

BABY ALBUM USING DAILY DOODLE PLANNER INSERTS | with Nathalie

I recently went back into the Daily Doodles insert that I am using to make a baby album for my now grown up son (more on that in my May post) to create these new pages. I am still enjoying this format a lot and I like the dotted background.

This spread has ephemera I have kept all these years and really wanted to include, plus one photo printed at 3.25x4.25 inches. For the left page, I pulled 6x6 papers with different patterns and hues but in the same color and cut them as banner pieces to use as mats.

To add interest and continuation elements with the right page, I layered a cloud die-cut, added a couple of birds from a Mini Doodle-pops pack (3628 bluejays) and a few stitches.

Now on the right page, I layered my photo on banners and created a title directly on another cloud die-cut (from the Simply Spring collection) with some Teensy alphabet stickers. One more little birdie from the Mini Doodle-pops pack gives it meaning.

A few lines of journaling and a little bit of matching twine finish the spread.

Before I go, I want to share my love for the Petite Prints 6x6 paper pads, all of them! I love their subtle prints and their scale (perfect for traveler's notebook, cards, tags, pocket pages and anything else you can think of!) and they come in a rainbow of colors! They are my favorites.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Happy scrapping!

SUMMER PLANNER PAGES | with Anabelle

My summer Daily Doodle is now in full use. School is out and I am in my summer mode! Today I'm sharing two of the inserts that I am using and I'm continuing to use the Sweet Summer collection. I love it!
This collection really is perfect for the lazy days of June, July and August. I shared my insert covers in my last blog post. Here I'm showing what is inside these two inserts.

The first is my June calendar. I used a mix of the Mini Icons and regular Icons to decorate this monthly spread. I love the die cuts and wanted to include the boom box at the top. The Abigail letter stickers are my favorite for labeling the month.

To add some fun color and visual interest, I cut a piece of paper to fit on the blank space on the right side of the insert. I love how the flowers balance all of the fun, summery elements.

Next up is a spread that I created to use as my Summer Bucket List. I chose to record books I want to read, health goals and recipes I want to try. I try not to make my Bucket List very long, so that I'm not disappointed come the end of summer. These are the areas I chose to focus on.

I used Teensy Type alpha sitckers and some die cuts from the Odds and Ends pack. I love that floral washi and added it to the center of the spread.

As you can see, the Sweet Summer collection is perfect for decorating your Daily Doodles. Hope you can find a creative way to use it in your planner!

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!
