Graduation Card by Christine

Graduations are right around the corner and SRM Stickers has stickers that are perfect for customizing your cards to fit the colors of your school!  Christine joining you today with a quick graduation card using Graduation Stickers by the Dozen and the Year of Memories/2016 stickers. With these two sets you can easily make a whole bunch of graduation cards to take along to each party!

The stickers are clear and black so they work perfectly for personalizing with things like or sequins, cardstock, or even some Sticker Stitches!

I added the biggest 2016 I could in the center and at an angle to up the whimsy!

The Stickers by the Dozen make it easy to add lots of caps to the card.  I used a circle punch to punch it out so I didn't have to try to place my sticker to precisely.

We're looking forward to seeing what cards and treats you are making for the grads in your life!

Flicker Friday - Planner by Yvonne Yam

Recently we had a guest design visit from Yvonne Yam who is such a talent.  We were fortunate to have her on our design team and she continues to use her SRM on a regular basis in her mixed media projects, her layouts and now in her planner. 

For today's Flickr Friday, we check out another post to her planner.  

Yvonne loves stickers and uses them liberally throughout her planner.  I spy the Calendar Companion, Year of Memories 2016, We've Got Your Border Birthday, Birthday Stickers by the Dozen and Cooking FreeStyle.  

And here's a closeup of some planner art that Yvonne includes each month.  Her planner is a combination of a planner, a journal and her passion for mixed media.

Thanks for joining us today!  If you would like to be featured on the SRM Blog's Flickr Friday, simply post a project using SRM products to our Flickr and you may be featured!

March Planner Pages by Juliana

Hello SRM friends! It's Juliana, and I'm here to share how I've decorated my March planner pages with you. I'm starting to find my grove with decorating my planner. At least I think so, and one thing is for sure...SRM stickers are the perfect addition to any planner.

I especially love using the We've Got Your Border Stickers to dress up washi tape. On this one, I used the "Happiness Is..." from the We've Got Your Border Bright.

Aren't those little chicks on the We've Got Your Border Pastel just perfect for Easter?

I also love to use the Year of Memories 2016 stickers to add the year and the birthday banner stickers from the Calendar Companion are perfect for making note of the birthdays this month.

As most people know, St. Patrick's Day is this month, and the shamrock from the Express Yourself St. Patrick's Day Stickers was calling out to be used on March 17th.

What are your favorite SRM Stickers to use in your planner? One thing is for sure, SRM has you covered when it comes to decorating your planner!

HUGS!
Juliana

Getting Organized with SRM Stickers by Christine

We often use our paper craft supplies for fancy, fun, and whimsical creations.  But every once in a while we find a really sensible use for them that will enhance our everyday life.  Christine joining you today to show how I used supplies from SRM to create a new filing system! What!?!  Yep, a filing system, with paper craft supplies! 

Our family is busy and with four kids, I have to be organized or things get ugly.  One of my biggest weaknesses is having too many piles of paper work.  Bills, invitations, school newletters, they take over fast.  And then I can't find anything!  So when I saw this post recently on creating a "Tickler File" on Home Solutions 101.  The basic idea is to jog your memory on upcoming events, tickets, bills due, etc.  Click on the link and it will take you right through how to set it up! It's a system I knew would work for me so I got right to creating it!  

Using Number Stickers and Calendar stickers are the obvious part and SRM has a variety of them available in the Calendar section of the store.! I used months from the Year of Memories Sticker Set.  But wait til you see how I made the file tabs!

Our new Wafer Thin Die for the Decorative Calendar Sticker works perfectly!  I cut enough to make tabs for 31 days and 12 months.

 Running it thru a xyron machine allowed me to have a strong adhesive when I secured it to the file folders. 

So there you have it!  Just another way to use those paper crafting skills and supplies for something that came make your life even better!

A 2016 Birthday Calendar Organizer by Tessa Wise

Hi!  It's Tessa Wise sharing a fun project with you today.   I created a birthday calendar that doubles as a card organizer.

The organizer is an A2 Clear Card Box.  It holds about 8 cards plus envelopes.  I decorated it with the large 2016 sticker from the Year of Memories/2016 sheet and added some cardstock and patterned papers around the middle of the box.  I also added a bit of Honeydew Baker's Twine around it for embellishment.

In the center of the box, I added a mini calendar sticker from the Mini Calendar Stickers/Decorative 2016 Sticker Sheet.  The year's worth of calendar stickers have been stuck down onto white cardstock and diecut using the new Wafer Thin Die made especially for them.  

I loved using this new decorative die for the Mini Calendar Deco design for this project!

I can circle the important dates each month so I don't forget to send my cards!  The extra month diecuts fit perfectly in one of the new Vintage Floral Bags:

Each month has a bit of velcro tape on the back of it.  I can easily change out each month as I go through the year.

When a new month comes around, I just change out the calendar and add my cards for that month!

I'm hoping this project will keep me organized and sending cards throughout the year!
