Hello all and thank you for stopping by today to help celebrate Hero Arts Planner Catalog and planner goodies (more about this below)!
I enjoy planning and I probably sometimes plan more than I actually do, but for me this is a good way to stay organized and keep up with my busy blog schedule. I rarely plan anything other than my crafty blog life, so the only permanent planner I have is my crafty one.
Like this project? Pin it!
I keep two versions of my blog planner – a detailed monthly calendar in a spreadsheet online (there I can move things around easily and type up more info if needed) and a weekly less details but more sketchy paper planner. This blog post is about the second one.
My paper planner usually consists of a list of tasks I need to focus on during this week; I can also make notes as to what I’ve planned, draw quick card sketches and cross out the things I’ve already accomplished (the last part is my most favorite by far, lol!). Here I have Hero Arts Planner Pad (I keep it on my desk by my computer at all times) filled out for this week.
I used a few stamps and also some stamp & die sets to decorate it and break it up into sections. I wanted to add some color to my planner, but also didn’t want it to be too colorful and distracting, so I went with 3 colors – Soft Brown, Butter Bar and Tide Pool. The Soft Brown looks just like the pre-printed brown color on the pad and yellow and teal are nice complimentary colors (I used my Pinterest Inspiration & Color board to come up with good color combo ideas).
The stamp set I was most excited about in this Planner release is the Arts & Crafts one. Here I used a number of little icons and messages to stamp various little bits in my planner. I also stamped several tabs from them Flags stamp & cut set using same Soft Brown ink and finally added several faux washi tape accents. Some where stamped directly onto the planner (like those you see behind the “Make Cards” section) and some were stamped in Butter Bar and Tide Pool onto white cardstock and die cut.

I like how organized and enough space for writing your planner is.
Awesome planner ideas! Great tips!
Great organizing ideas!
Very organized. I like the ones that say Make Cards.
Wish I could have as many Make Cards slots as you do (and that they’d turn out as wonderful as yours always do!)!!
Love this special planner and all the wonderful stamps that go with it!
Very Interesting!
I LOVE how you stamped with soft light colors for subtle decorating and then wrote all your tasks in black pen. Very nice idea! I will be trying this! I need some of those ink colors as well! lol TFS
I love the rustic/fall vibe of your planner.
The weekly planner looks cool cause now all you have to do is stamp on the weekly planner.
Such fun! Love all the ways to personalize!
Thanks for sharing your planner & ideas! I love organizing and trying to keep my life organized, so there’s a ton of great products to help do that!
Really like your masculin Christmas card. Very thoughtful! All cards lovely and great ideas, thank you.
