I’m starting to really fall in love with these transfer stickers — they are so thin and they are easy to apply making a planner spread so quick and easy. I actually love pulling up the transparent sheet to revealed that transferred image. I, especially, love these florals.
I added a few lines to create a border for my florals to enclose them. I think it makes it so pretty and adds a little extra to the simple decor.

I don’t know why but although I’ve been super excited about 2025 and my planner goals — I just am slow out of the gate getting set up! Here is my planner lineup!

Five Year Diary
Sterling Ink – Five Year Diary | A5 (Undated) in Forest Gold
Trying this again! I started in 2020 but didn’t finish. I wanted a place to look back – it’s really fun to see what happens on the same day in previous years and the changes that come along with it!

Last week, I shared a card that used a similar stamping technique and it inspired me to pull out another background set to do some rainbow stamping. This time, I wanted to pull out a different sentiment and pop it up on another matted panel so the sentiment stood out a little bit more. I think if you compare this week’s card to last year’s Honey Bee card — you’ll notice that the sentiment was cut out from the background panel and it flows continuously. This one is separate.

Sizes of stamp images vary but sometimes you just need to fill up the rest of the space. Here, I used die cut shapes for the card to give it a bit of interest. I also hand drew in the frame to tie everything together.

The first card focuses on the Card Kit of the Month. This Card Kit contains a lot of fun, pretty things that is so perfect for a lovey dovey card. I started off by stamping one of the layered leafy pairs using the Hero Hues Core Ink in Fresh Lawn and Moss on the side of the card. Then I worked on stamping out the layered typewriter with Intens-ified Black Ink along with Periwinkle, Deep Ocean and Granite. When it’s all stamped out, the typewriter is so cool plus it the card kit comes with a coordinating die! I also stamped out the sentiment on the piece of paper I insert into the die cut. I used Intens-ified Black Ink and Azalea. I stamped an extra sentiment in the bottom right hand corner on top of a piece of Azalea cardstock to tie everything together.
Here’s a quick video for this above card! Hope you enjoy it!

I love a good scene card. They take a bit of time but I pick images that are easy to cut and then I also use ink blending to fill up the background so I don’t have to color too much.

I don’t use watercolors as often as I want — but I definitely need more practice at it. I do love how this turned out.

This past year, I walked away from a bullet journal set up because it was really time consuming (even though super fun) paired with my card making. In this year, I tested out a doodle planner, which had everything set up for me and I could just color and fill it in — I didn’t love it because it didn’t allow for much creative freedom outside of picking what colors to use. Then I saw a sale for Sterling Ink and it had the vibes of a Hobonichi, which I’ve wanted to test out to see if I’d like it. Suffice to say, I LOOOOOOVED it.
Fast forward, to October, when I was in Japan, I decided to pick up the Hobonichi and I’m trying to commit to it this year! The idea of daily journaling is a bit scary as I’m not a particularly exciting person and I am a total homebody but it’s a goal of mine in this coming year to turn the mundane into fun memories. In my past bujo spreads, sometimes, I’ll use the same elements to create cards — stretching supplies — and I kinda want to incorporate that this year too because I’ve felt I’ve been in a bit of a slump with card making as well.
Anyway, here it is — my first week setup in my A5 Hobonichi HON, where it’s set up for me but I’m allowed some creative freedom to decorate. I’ll follow up with another snippet if I do make a matching card.

I know that we were all about the holiday cards but now we’re still in winter (in fact, it just started this week) and winter cards are definitely perfect for light up cards too!

I love monotone cards — mainly because I’m terrible at color choices. This way it keeps it simple. I did a bit of subtle ombre stamping paired with a bold, sparkly sentiment.
