I LOVE My Planner!

“Without leaps of imagination or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all is a form of planning.” 
― Gloria Steinem

I have been a journal writer,

Dreamer

and 

planner

most of my life.

All those stickers

and papers

make me HAPPY!

I have used everything from simple notebooks

to Stephen Covey.

My Planner these days

is the 

Happy Planner from MAMBI.

I am on my SECOND one!!

I belong to several Facebook planner groups and I have noticed one thing....

I am NOT your traditional planner girl.

Nope.

I tend to treat my planner more like 

a diary/journal, adding little treasures

that make me SMILE!

One of my favorite things to use in my planners

are vintage images.

These girls just speak to me.

Along with the girls I use and LOVE the quote stickers from MAMBI.

I have every single one!!

Project Life cards work great in my planner, too

I started keeping my Happy Planner a year ago.

It's always SO FUN going back and seeing what we were doing a year ago.

Along with planning and journal taking

I use my planner for fitness, writing down my Dreams,

making lists and favorite quotes that inspire me.

Are you a planner? Be sure and let me know!!

The Power of Art Journaling

I have always been a writer.

Always.

It was my dream to write.

And still is.

But I am 

SO

grateful
Art Journaling

came into my life.

I think if you take the quote above and substitute art journaling for the word write...

it's the same thing.

Art Journaling does give me strength

to

see.

 Art Journaling does give me an outlet 

to

be

someone

else.

Art Journaling does allow me

to

face

my

fears.

I am so grateful for the POWER in Creating!

Art TRULY does Heal.
