Faux Tag Spread

In a previous Cocoa Daisy project, I created a tag using the October Glow Creative Ki t paper to serve as a bookmark. I loved the idea so much that I decided to use it as a template throughout the spread. By tracing around it and then shading in the edges, I was able to mimic the look of layered paper and give my pages extra depth without the bulk. It creates a dimensional effect that makes the tags look like they’re tucked right into my notebook. To keep that “layered paper” look going, I added strips of washi tape from the Planner Kit to the top and bottom of each 'tag'  Washi is one of my favorite ways to bring in more texture without overwhelming the page. It frames the sections nicely and it also helps divide my to-dos from my daily schedule. On the left-hand side I used a Top 3 box to focus my priorities, then scattered in task lists, appointments, and reminders for the rest of the day.

Bujo Baby!

 

The SimpleDaisy Notebook is geared more toward journaling and memory keeping but I’ve been wanting to try it out for planning. I worked three different weekly spreads on two pages each to show the possibilities of using the Notebook in a different and beautiful way.

In the spirit of the traditional planning inserts offered by Cocoa Daisy each month, I started out by making horizontal blocks with the Stationery Kit Click-Art marker on the square grid side of the page. Quick, easy and it doesn’t have to be perfect though I added a few stickers under the weekday stickers from the Planner Add On Kit.

For this next spread, since I rearranged the papers, there were two pattern papers next to each other. Enter the sticky note pad from the Main Planner Kit! I clipped off the top part and just adhered each rectangle. Added some more of the days and die cut stickers and it was a quick way to use a busy background paper spread.

I once again had a grid page to start with so I traced 2 kit packaging squares to create the boxes on the left and then glued those same squares on the right pattern paper. I designated the bottom right with a tracker and meal plan sticker and the upper left is the weekly overview done with the Main Planner Kit Alphas.

Each one of these spreads is really easy to recreate so its always a chance for you to try some easy bujo fun!
