October Planner Pages by Tangii

Hey yall, Tangii here.  For today's post I did some playing with some Halloween stickers and Planner stamps (all items used are listed at the bottom of my post).   You could use this format for any month.  Just change up the stickers that you use.  This is my Daughter's planner and is actually a 1/2 sheet size, so 5 1/2" x 8".  I also used the Coloring Book Watercolor Pencils (12 pack).

My daughter struggles when Monday strolls around, and being the coffee lover that she is, I used the Coffee Plans, Clear Planner set on Mondays.  I also had some fun with the 31st, she still LOVES dressing up for Halloween, lol. 

I used Everyday Plans, Clear Planner set for Pay Day's & Date Nights.  For the cute lil Piggy & Heart I just stamped them in black and used the Coloring Book Watercolor Pencils to color them in, I did NOT add water since this is not the correct type of paper.  I also added some "List" categories for her on the far right!  Thinking I should have added a "Clean your room" under the first category! lol

Her planner also has weekly layouts, but when I decorate my Monthly views I always make sure there is still room for writing things in!  Thanks for stopping by!

For these projects I used Coffee Plans, Clear Planner, Everyday Plans, Clear Planner set, Express Yourself Halloween, We've Got Your Stickers Treats, We've Got Your Stickers Plus Jack-o-Lantern, Coloring Book Watercolor Pencils (12 pack)

Happy Crafting!

October Planner Pages by Shantaie

I am a planner. True story. 

I am not organized by nature and work quite hard work to keep track of my daily and weekly tasks...well I don't work hard anymore because planners keep me on track and more productive than I ever thought I was possible of. 

I used to keep a "to do list" with lines and line of things to do {more busy work than actual productivity} There are tons of planners, and articles on how to use planners, I have read more than my share of them,  but......I have a secret to confess. I have not made my planners fun or used my creative supplies before now!!! { I know!!!!} 

How is it possible that a long time paper crafter like me has resisted this awesome creative outlet? Fear. I was kind of intimidated by the idea of pairing my super structured planner with fun and art. {trembles in her chair}

This is my very first attempt, and although I could have reworked it to be perfect for this assignment, I chose to show you how easy it is, and even though I'm not a pro page planner designer just yet, I'm still super happy with it!!!

I am totally committed to using my SRM planner stamps every week, and I can't wait to share my pages with you in the future!!!!! 

Planner stamps, SRM stickers, and LePlume markers made my page quick, fun, and useful.  Here's a list of the SRM stickers and stamps I used:

8 x 8 Calendar by Tobi

Hi there. It's Tobi here with a quick calendar project. Now, you might be thinking, how can a calendar be "quick"? Well... hehehe... If you only do one month at a time it is!! One reason I got away from scrapbooking is it took me too darn long to finish a layout - and that's when I moved to other, smaller things.

Which brings me to my calendars! I like to do one month at a time, that way I have a pretty calendar all the time, and because I'm doing it throughout the year, I'm constantly changing products and techniques. AND let's face it, it's quick and easy just doing one month!!

I used a whole bunch of SRM goodies on this month! 

An important aspect (for me) when doing a calendar is to get the right patterned papers for the month. These are some old Cosmo Cricket papers I've been hoarding and they are perfect for fall!

I added a whole bunch of stickers to the right panel like a kind oflist. Then to the left are some stamped leaves on grey card stock. 

I don't have a lot planned for October yet (besides a quick trip down to Hong Kong) and a Hallowe'en party, but I'm sure I'll fill it up with more Planner Icon stickers soon! 

That's all for now! Thanks for joining me today. 

Supplies used: 

8 x 8 Calendar

Small Calendar numbers

Sticker Sentiments - Fall

Planner Icon Stickers

October Planner Pages/Calendar by Juliana (and bonus card)

Hello SRM Fans! It's Juliana here with you today and I'm sharing how I've used the SRM Stickers 8x8 Calendar to create my version of a planner. I recently realized that I needed a better way to keep track of some of my DT assignments, along with other important events and activities. Although this project is for October, the idea can work for you throughout the year!

As I was trying to come up with a system that would work for me, I remembered having an 8x8 calendar from SRM Stickers. When I pulled it out, I knew it was just the right size for what I needed. I truly believe you have to find a system that works for you. Some of us have more activities, meetings and appointments in our lives than others, so I encourage you to check out your options and figure out what will work best for you. 

Now, when it comes to decorating your planner or calendar SRM Stickers has you covered! From their wonderful Calendar Month and Calendar Companion Stickers to their We've Got Your Border and Sticker Stitches, you are sure to find exactly what you need!

For my October page, I went with a Halloween theme. Along with the SRM Stickers, I used some colored markers in colors that coordinated with my Halloween theme. It came together so quickly with the help of the awesome SRM Stickers and it has been really helpful for keeping me more organized this month. I will definitely be continuing to use this calendar and I've already started getting my November page ready to go.

So how are you using SRM Stickers in your planner? You can share them with us in the SRM Stickers Planner Sticker Fun Facebook group! We can't wait to see them!

And because I love Halloween so much, I thought to share with you this Halloween card I created using SRM's Jane's Doodles Get Candy Stamp along with clear Sentiments from SRM's Stickers by the Dozen and Sticker Stitches.  

HUGS and Happy Haunting to you all!

October Planner Fun by Cathy

Hi everyone! Cathy here with you today sharing an October Planner page that I created with my teen daughter's planner and a ton of SRM!  I haven't jumped into the whole planner rage that is sweeping across the paper crafting industry, but thought I would give it a try with her boring old planner.  Now I am hooked, so fun and quick!  I will be creating one for myself now!  SRM has so many great stickers that the possibilities are endless and you can personalize them so easily!

I added some washi tape and layered it with a SRM border sticker for a bit more color at the bottom of the page! 

 So much fun and done in just minutes!

Here's a list of all the SRM Sticker supplies that I used!

Now let's hear from Jen in her own words….

- - - - - - -

Hello everyone, I’m Jennifer Pohl and I’m thrilled to be on the SRM blog today!  SRM stickers have been a part of my life for *years*.  They are the perfect product for party favors, birthday designs, gifting, and now --- planners!  I’m absolutely addicted to my planner; it’s a lifeline for all that’s important to me.  It helps me stay focused, organized, and assists me in staying on track with my life goals.  It’s so much more than a date keeper.

  

It’s not my nature to just jot down appointments and events on paper – I need to be creative.  I need to make it pretty.  I need to look at my planner every morning and feel motivated.  Today I’m featuring my October layout.  My objectives for October are;

• Take lots of fun photos of my children enjoying the events of the month
• Continue to try new recipes and record them on recipe cards that I can refer to in the future
• Be on time, and not let anything “fall through the cracks” as it’s sure to be a busy month

October’s layout is all about Halloween, my family’s favorite holiday.  I’ve decorated the month with SRM Stickers but left plenty of room for jotting-down important information.

I inserted an embellished pocket to store backpack notes for my girls.  

(I’ve been tucking notes for years and my girls look forward to seeing a little something from mom.  They’ve kept every note throughout the years!)  

I got ahead of the game by premaking little inspiring tags using SRM’s ‘Labels by the Dozen’ and ‘Live Life’ school stickers.

Also tucked into October is a glassine envelope containing recipe cards – all decorated with SRM’s Cookin’ stickers.  I’m on a mission to try new recipes and memorialize my family’s favorites each month.  

By the end of 2015 I should have a collection to help me head into 2016 with lots of dinner options.

The last October insert is a clear pocket for photos.  Lots and lots of photos!  We’re planning a trip to the pumpkin patch, haunted house, and we’ll be attending a costume party… So many opportunities for pictures.  I needed something special to hold them until I could scrapbook them, so I fancied a banner using SRM’s Halloween stickers.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed a peek into my planner.  Be sure to share your planner ideas on SRM's Flickr.  We'd love to see what you do!  And don't forget to comment for a change to winner some planner goodness from SRM!
