CHRISTMAS MAGIC MICRO NOTES | with Jomelle

I can't seem to stay away from Micro Notes. You can't go wrong with anything mini. They are just so adorable. Mini Notes are also perfect for gifts this coming Holiday. I'm sure whoever receives this kind of present will be thrilled.

Micro Notes can be use for anything you want. It can be used for memory keeping, journal, diary, December Daily, jotting notes or even grocery shopping list. The Micro Notes is so small that it can be your every day carry and easy to put inside your purse.

 I started to fill my Micro Notes with embellishments and decorations. I can add photos, journals and memorabilia later on.

 I am obsessed with the tags that I cut out from the 12x12 card stock. They are so fun and so easy to use. I added twines and just stick them inside for journal in the back side of it.

 I created this flip page to add dimension to my notes. I added holes so that it can be folded and have it close. All I did to create this was I cut out the card stock which is double the size of the micro insert so that it can be folded in half. 

 More pages with tags on one side.

 I used this adhesive square label pockets that I bought from Target Dollar Spot. I cut it in half and added them to my Micro Notes to hold the tags. 

 I just love how the back side of these tags have plenty of room for photos and or journal. I'm going to need to stock up on these adhesive labels because they can be used on any memory keeping albums.

I can't wait to make this super chunky by adding more pages, photos, and journals. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you were inspired to create one.

CANDY CARNIVAL MICRO NOTE BOOKS | with Jomelle

Eeeek! It's October and you know what that means? Time to celebrate Halloween. I must say that I am a huge fan of Halloween. I always look forward to this time of the year.

When I received the "Candy Carnival" collection, I felt like a little kid in a candy store. I didn't know where to start. I just love everything about this collection.

So before you continue reading, I must warn you this blog will be loaded with tons of photos.

To continue on with the Micro Notes craze, I decided to create my own Micro Notes for memory keeping and for my October daily. This is my first attempt to complete an October daily. So wish me luck and I hope to finish it.

Let's get started. I want to share how I created my Micro Notes. I used the 6x6 paper pad. I chose the designs I want to use and cut them to the size of my Micro Notes. I got mine from Hobby Lobby but I'm sure you can also buy them at Michael's, Joann's or Scrapbook.com

Basically I used the cover of the Micro Notes and trace it to cut the paper pad.

 Next, I rounded all the corners.

 Then I used the We R Memory Keeper punch board. I bought the disc punch separately. The settings I used are 6,18,30 and 43. If you don't have the punch board, you may use a regular hole puncher and just a cut slit in each hole.

Once you punched holes into all the papers, take out all your Halloween embellishments and just have fun. Decorate with all your heart out and everything will turn out beautiful.

Here is the first one I decorated. I will be using this Micro Notes for memory keeping, notes, brain dump and anything else I need to jot down. I can also carry this with me daily for the month of October.

I'm sure y'all been wanting to see the inside. Let's take a Peek! Photos below will show some of the pages I created. Have fun peeking.

I've always like using this flip open function in my memory keeping. I can add photo or journal behind it. It's a fun interactive addition to my book.

I also made a page marker which has a tab on top to easily find the current page I'm on.

How cute is this pink color added into this Halloween collection? Of course I had to create a cover all about pink.

Here we go. It's time to give October Daily a go. What's October Daily you asked? It's journal or an album where one can document everyday leading up to Halloween. Basically, it's an open book and anything goes. There are plenty of prompts online that you can use and follow.

 I am using the pages that came with the Micro Notes I bought. The pink polk dots on the edges goes well with my all about pink theme.

I love Halloween not only for trick or treating or dressing up in costumes, but also because of the spirit that brings people alive and to have a great time.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you can start your very first October daily with me.

SCHOOL DAYS - MICRO NOTE PADS | with Jomelle

I can't believe school already started for my boys. Where did summer go? My oldest Joshua started his Junior year in high school and my second son Jaden started his 6th grade.

As you may know, I am into the Micro Notes these days. I decided to create Micro Notes for each of my children. I can think of so many ways to use these Micro Notes during school year. I can journal, document moments and add photos.

I used the 6x6 paper pad for the covers and add embellishments. I used different color rings that matches the decor of each covers. It's really easy to make and so much fun. I created each one to match my kid's characters.

My 3 year old daughter Juliet is really excited to go to school. She missed the cut out for her to start kindergarten this year so she will start T-K next school year. I created this Micro for her all in pink rings. How adorable is the girl with the pony tails.

My oldest son Joshua does not like to take pictures anymore. I guess he feels he's "too cool" for photos. I still decided created a Micro Notes for him that I plan to use for a little journal or maybe even document his many of "Firsts" such as first crush, first date, first girlfriend and many more. I may not have a lot of pictures but I can add do more of journaling.

Last but not the least, the middle child Jaden. He is the "fun" one who is very adventurous. I know that I will be able to add so many pictures of him and his friends in this Micro Notes. I can document his band concerts and school plays.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoy viewing my Micro Notes. Maybe you can create one for each of your children as well. Try it because it's really fun to create.
