Interactive Journaling with Acetate Frames: A Fresh Take Using the Cocoa Daisy Stationery Kit

When I first opened the Cocoa Daisy Stationery Kit, I knew I wanted to do more than just decorate. I wanted to build something interactive—something that combined photos, journaling, and movement. That’s when this idea hit: what if I used the acetate sheets to frame sticky notes, creating little flip-open windows that could hold stories?

Each acetate “frame” acts like a photo mat on one side and a journaling on the other side of the double sided sticky note base. The sticky notes in this kit were the perfect size and already beautifully designed. I just trimmed the acetate slightly larger on one side and adhered one side to the page—leaving the other free write a little note about the picture

These mini flaps are durable, fun to open, and a great way to sneak in extra journaling without cluttering your layout. Plus it hides your journaling if you want a little more privacy. The day stickers from the Stationery Kit on each pic helps me keep the week straight.

If you're ready to give your stationery kit a new role, try turning sticky notes and acetate into interactive story spots. It’s a creative way to preserve memories while still playing with beautiful supplies—and it gives your journal a tactile quality that’s hard to beat.

Here is the video on how I made each one for my planner!

🦋 Kit Details:
The Flutterby kit was perfect for this soft, serene look. The butterflies, watercolor florals, and earthy greens captured the slowing pace of late summer. I paired those elements with calming purples and vintage-feel tags for a dreamy weekly layout.

If you’ve been wanting to do more with your Cocoa Daisy kits than just stick down stickers—try adding one little pocket and a few layered edges. You’ll be surprised how fast it turns functional planning into something special!
