Planning in my Happy Planner with Graphic 45's Steam Punk Spells

 



     Have you ever had a scrapbook paper collection that you just fell in love with it the minute you saw it?  Well, that is the way I feel with Graphic 45's Steam Punk Spells Collection.  Now mind you this collection is now retired, but I am sure at some point this gorgeous steam punk paper collection will make its comeback in time. 
     What I love most about planning, is that I really don't have to go out and buy anything special to decorate my planner.  I am an avid crafter and have tons of scrap papers left over to work with and usually lots of stickers too.  But for the Washi Tape, I had rough time finding it until this week.  So I scooped up a few rolls of Halloween and Christmas Washi's from my local dollar tree. 
     I used my "this to that" Tape that I received in my amazing planner kit from Divine Elements of Divine to place my papers down on to my planner and then covered the edges (where it usually says morn, afternoon and Eve.) with my Dollar Tree Washi Tape. 
    I hope you like what I have done with this weeks layout and I would love for you to watch my video below. Thank you so much and Please feel free to comment below, I love hearing from you!! And also if you haven't subscribed to my channel please do :)

Do you need an easier way to keep track of your grocery Spending?

 

  A few weeks ago I decided to purchase the add on to the Me & My big ideas 365 Happy Planner.. The add on by them is called the Household Planner.  I went through the ole Betty Crocker cook book and found several recipes that I thought would be simple and fast.
     Now if you have a family and are on a strict budget this may work for you. On the left side is the recipes and on the right is the grocery list. I must say this made it pretty darn simple to quickly assemble my grocery list.  Today I picked out two of the recipes and with two kids in tow went to Wally World.. (Darn them postal holidays for messing with my daily grind) but I pushed on. I was quickly able to get the kids involved, especially my daughter Mia, my mini me, lol. Aidan well he's a boy, so you know how that goes. So I gave Mia the checklist to check off all the items that we were getting, while I waited for the deli man to cut our roast beef.
      I decided to give them a couple items to go grab, assured that both items were well in my line of vision. I don't trust nobody, sheez, there's a lot of weirdos in Dallas, lol.  They returned quickly with their items and happily marked off their findings.  Mia went on to tell me what was left on the list. Needless to say we were out of the store in less than 15 minutes and spent a record of only 20.00.  I stuck to my guns and only purchased items from the list. Can't wait to update you on our next trip and also our opinions of the recipes.
