Plan On It! by Angie

Hello SRM friends and fans!! Angie here with you to share  some planner pages using some of the amazing stamps, stickers and pens from SRM. 

Since my planner pages already had a pink and teal theme, I knew I wanted to play up those colors. I also added in some black and white to give the pages that 'pop' of extra color. 

I started with the Color in Markers. I used the pink marker. I scribbled a little bit of the pink marker on an acrylic stamping block, added some water and mixed it together to make a 'paint'. I painted that on my pages in certain spots and used some to make some splatters as well. If you try this technique, just keep in mind that the more 'paint' you add, the more your pages will warp. 

Next, I gathered my SRM planner stamps and the Bible background stamps. I love how the Bible background stamps just add a little more interest to the pages. I used the Coffee Plans Stamps to stamp a reminder to drink all the coffee (not that I need a reminder!!). For the weekend banner, I stamped the banner from the Travel Plans Stamps and wrote in the word weekend using the neon LePen set. The cute little apple comes from the Seasonal Plans set. That set contains so many cute icons! The word September at the top of the page also comes from that same stamp set. 

For the flowers seen on my pages, I used the Just Believe stamp set. I colored those images using the Color In Markers and Neon LePen set mentioned above. Just remember to use an archival ink when stamping images if you plan to watercolor them, that way your stamped image won't bleed. 

To decorate my pages even more, I used several of SRM's awesome stickers. SRM has stickers for all occasions.

The soccer stickers you see are from Say it with stickers-soccer and Take 2-soccer. Don't be afraid to cut down your stickers to use what you want. The adorable pink circular label is from the Labels by the Dozen Bright Blank set. Those labels are useful for so many different projects.

Do you see the adorable coffee cup, shopping cart, money sign and checklist? Those are from SRM's super cute and versatile Planner Icon Sticker Sheet!

I also added in some pink and black sticker stitches and some border stickers. After adding a few bits and pieces from my stash, my planer pages look amazing and are still functional!

Head on over to the SRM Stickers store and find all of the great products that you can use on your planner pages! 

Using Patterned Bags Layouts by Samantha

Hello! Samantha with you today. If you're like me, sometimes you have more photos than you know what to do with. Today I'm going to show you how you can use SRM's patterned bags to get more photos an on layout. 

Every year I have multiple camping photos to scrap. Sometimes the photos feel new and fun, and sometimes they feel a bit redundant. However, they tell the story of our summer and I want to scrap them anyways. 

I start by pulling all of the photos I want to use. Then I pick my favorite one (like this group shot of us hiking up a tower) and make it my focal photo. All the other photos will go in the patterned bag. I build the layout around my focal photo, and use the patterned bag as a layering piece like I would a piece of patterned paper. Adhere your bag directly to the layout and layer your photo on top.

When your layout is finished, add your extra photos to the patterned bag. I like to back my photos with a bit of card stock, and I used Year of Memories Stickers to add tabs to the tops of my photos. These aren't necessary, but add a fun design element and help draw your eye to the fact that there are photos in the patterned bag. 

I also used stickers from Calendar Companions,  Stickers by the Dozen Valentine, Planner Icon Stickers, and We've Got Your Borders Bright to embellish my layout.

The best part is, SRM carries a wide variety of sizes, colors, and patterns in patterned bags, so you're sure to find something that works well on any layout. The small bags (like I used here) work great for 4x6 or smaller photos. The medium patterned bags work well for 5x7 photos, and the large bags are perfect for 8x10 photos. 

Using patterned bags on a layout is a fun a versatile way to add more photos to your layout!

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.

February will look great with some of SRM's Valentine Stickers!

I Am With You Bible Journaling by Samantha

Hello!  Samantha here today to share some Bible Journaling with you.  I often Bible journal from notes I've taken from Sunday's sermon, but sometimes ideas come to me in other ways. Just recently my Amazing Grace Bible journaling stamp set was sitting next to my Today, Tomorrow, To Do planner stamp set, and I saw the "I am with you always" stamp from Amazing Grace and thought it would be really fun on a page with the "today" and "tomorrow" stamps from the planner set. Thus this I Am With You Bible journaling page popped into my mind.

I like to build my background first. I started with some Marvy Color In watercolor pencils. I colored a big swatches of color, and the went over the whole page with the Marvy Color In Water Brush. This helps blend the color and gives the whole page a softer feel. 

After my page dried, I went back and stamped "today" and "tomorrow" from the Today, Tomorrow, To Do planner stamp set in coordinating colors. I left a blank space right in the center so I could stamp "I am with you always" from the Amazing Grace Bible journaling stamp set in black ink.

I felt that my main thought needed a bit more pop, so I grabbed my watercolor pencils again and colored in a few of the letters. I also used a little dot stamp from the Big Trinity stamp set to underline always. 

I like to add little tabs to each of my decorated pages in my Bible, so I finished the page of with a little red tab. I used a "remember" sticker from the Planner Icon sticker sheet to label my tab. I'd love to hear where your inspiration for your Bible journaling comes from!

It's All About Heart Bible Journaling by Shannon

Good Morning!  Shannon here today to share some of my Bible Journaling with you.  Bible journaling is such a wonderful and personal craft.    By the way, SRM has a Bible Journaling Facebook group called Bible Journaling Journey.  Come join us HERE.  

June is Ordinary Time for my faith, but it is anything from ordinary. We devote a whole month to The Sacred Heart of Jesus, not to be overshadowed, we also honor The Immaculate Heart of Mary. These two hearts work in everyone's lives, whether they realize it or not. For those of us who call on them daily, they are a source of peace, love, growth, comfort, devotion, a safe place to tell your sorrows and joys to. 

My page I am sharing with you, it's a declaration of sorts, the reading is a sad one, before Jesus dies on the cross, and breathes his final breath, but it is a powerful declaration. Mary is mother to us all. She loves us and wants the very best for us. She is our protector, she is the one who wraps her arms around us in deep sorrow or celebratory joy. She is amazing and all the love in the world could never compare to the love she feels for each and every one of us.

I used many SRM goodies to create this page, the products are the perfect size for the limited margins in a journaling bible, and you truly can add dimension without bulk. I used SRM Glassine Bags as a subtle layer, you can still see the text and colors behind.  Large Scalloped Punched Pieces make a big impact and  an additional layer.

If you are looking for a quick way to add some journaling, SRM has tons of stickers with great sentiments, I used Free Style/Thrive and Sentiment/Shine Your Light to add some loving words. I can't complete any project without using my Le Pen or Sticker Stitches.

I used so many more great things available to you, here is a complete list:

Glassine Bags

Stickers by the Dozen/Valentine

 Punched Pieces - Large Scalloped Circle

Punched Pieces - Small Scalloped Circle

Year of Memories Sticker/2016

Free Style/Thrive

Little Borders/Black & White

Planner Icon Sticker

Sticker Stitches - Black

Sentiment/Shine Your Light

Le Pen 4 Piece Set - Dark Colors

Have a wonderful day & thank you for letting me share!  ❤

April Planner Pages by Juliana

Hello SRM friends! It's Juliana, and today I'm sharing my April planner pages with you.

I used the Year of Memories 2016 stickers to add the year and the birthday banner stickers from the Calendar Companion to mark the 88th birthday of my mother in law!

For a fun pop of yellow and some Hello Sunshine to welcome in the spring time weather, I used the We've Got Your Border Bright stickers. 

I also used some of the new SRM Planner Icon Stickers. This is such a great set because of all the little planner words and fun icon images! 

So what are your favorite SRM Stickers to use in your planner?  Here are the ones I used on my April pages.

Thanks for stopping by today!
