2017 Bullet Journal Planner

Welcome back to planner week.  As we close out 2016, I thought I would give you some ideas for starting off 2017 with a plan.  :)  In today's video I am showing how I set up my B5 Leuchtturm1917 Dotted bullet journal planner notebook.  This is the planner I plan on using for all my business & blog projects & videos.  There is plenty of room to map out goals and action plans to help me achieve my dreams in 2017.

Christmas CASE

For those of you who don't know, CASEing, in the stamp world, means Copy And Share Everything.  In October I had the priviledge of caseing my friend, Kristie, as part of a design team challenge over at StampNation.  As I said in the video I made for that class, my first card turned out a little too much like Kristie's, so I had to scrap that one and change it up a bit more for my tutorial.  It's funny because I used different stamp sets, different theme and with the exception of black & white, different colors.  I did use her layout and design.  Here is my original card.


Don't you just love him?  If you would like to see Kristie's card, the second card I came up with and my video tutorial, you can clicky, if you are a StampNation member.

Winter Woodland Color Layering Deer

Last week I shared a simple card using my new Color Layering Deer stamp set from Hero Arts.  Today I'm sharing a slightly stepped up version of that card, using a simple masking technique to add "depth of field" to my card.
