7/30/17 EDITED: MY LUCKY PRIZE WINNER IS CHRIS L! SHE HAS BEEN NOTIFIED! THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS EVERYONE!
Hey everyone! Happy Monday! How was your weekend? We had a very quiet weekend and it was nice. I went to meet some fellow awesome girl bloggers for coffee and work on Sunday morning. What a treat! We all brought our laptops and worked and gabbed. Much more fun to work with friends (and coffee!)
Today I'm sharing something fun and cheerful – planner stamping! You know that I've been bitten by the planner bug, and stamping in my planner? Perfect! I'm doing a spotlight feature post on the super cute Clearly Planned line of stamps from our friends at Taylored Expressions! They have loads of stamp sets that are sized just right for your planner pages. OMG I was smiling the entire time I was stamping these! CLICK HERE to see a little Instagram video of all the sets I worked with!
AND….I have a giveaway today – so you can try some too! Details at the bottom of my post. Yay!
I ended up completing a week in my Erin Condren planner using several of the stamp sets. I made some cute little clips, too… Oh, and a card! I literally could not stop myself! I am definitely going to be doing more of this. I was really inspired by the gals at the planner meet up I went to a few weeks ago. I have goals now! Ha!
I used the adorable little cats several times on my pages. I colored them all to look like my sweet Buddy – of course! Some of them peek out from the lines of the planner page and some are stand alone like the little tipsy kitty on happy hour day! I used some washi tapes together to add some more color. I don't tend to stamp or decorate too much, because I write big, and I want to make sure to leave space for my appointments etc.
This is my planner open before I started stamping! Looks so sad, right?
OH MY GOODNESS! Little orange kitty with a heart for date night? Adorable! And a tiny pizza slice and wine. Yeah, way too much fun! For the most part I stamped on paper and colored first, then cut the images out and put them in my planner. For some of the images, I stamped directly onto the planner page. I colored everything with Copic Markers and they bleed through the paper – that is the main reason for doing it that way. I don't really mind a bit of that, but for some of the bigger images I didn't want all the color on the other side.
I think this is my favorite one! For Monday, of course! Rise and grind!
SOOOO cute! And, that's actually how I look after a couple of martinis! LOL.
I had the idea to make a few cute clips for my planner too! These are so fun and easy! I used the regular large size paper clips. I stamped and cut out two of each image and attached them back to back with foam tape and hot glued them onto the paper clip. They look fun popping out the top of my planner. I definitely want to make more of these!
I didn't end up using this set in my planner but I REALLY wanted to color these cuties! So I made a quick, clean and simple card! I love that hipster pineapple guy! I think the coconut lady is his girlfriend! I layered some beautiful ombre stripes paper over an A2 card base and die cut a window for the cute couple. So easy. My Copic Marker colors are below in the supplies. I added just a bit of Clear Wink of Stella pen to them too.
People often ask me what kind of planner I use. I have an Erin Condren planner and have used this brand and type for 4 years now. Every year I customize the cover with my favorite Instagram pictures from the year before and it makes me happy to see the pictures every time!
And here is my planning assistant, asleep on the job! LOL. He's tired from planning to take a nap!
PRIZE ALERT PRIZE ALERT PRIZE ALERT!

Hi Wanda, I am definitely a To Do list person. I have written lists, electronic lists, and post it’s all over.
Hope all is well with you.
I like to plan my week out starting on Sunday. I write everything I know I have to do then during the week I decorate with stamps and stickers.
I look at my calendar for the week so I know what I’m up against. From there I add whatever else needs to be done that week. Then I roll my eyes and hope they get done. LOL!!!
Love your fun planner and all those cute orange kitties (Buddy too!). I would have to color mine Siamese-y!
I am more of a list maker. Have not gotten into the planners yet. I am not very organized, and my lists are starting to becomes a necessity! The older I get, the more I need them…. I laugh and say that if I need more than 3 things at the grocery store, I better write it down!
This is so cute! Right now I am planning for my trip to Canada, making a list of all the goodies I want to bring back from home to Paris. 🙂
My planner is more like a journal. It works for me because I’m more of a spontaneous person and not a planner! I love having a record of what I did. It’s my history!
Your planner is so cute! Love those little kitty stamps! I am totally a planner person. I am a teacher, and I am in love with my Erin Condren teacher planner. It makes me happy to look at it. I had been using EC for my home/blog planner, but this year I switched to PTI, and I’m really loving that! On the weekends, I fill in all of my blog projects and personal/work appointments for the upcoming week. I’d love the chance to win those cute stamps to dress up my planner!
Eep! Soooooo cute!
I use a planner + a to-do list for things that I need to complete for that day.
Super cuteness in your planner, Wanda! Love it! And your card is adorable, so bright and summery! I’ve been using a Happy Planner this year, but have used several Erin Condren planners in the past and I love your customized cover!
I am a to do list type. And write notes for my lists. I need to get a planner though. Would be better than a list for due dates on bills.
You are the definition of planner GOALS! I love how you keep everything organized and make it fun and themed with the stickers and stamps. Have a good week!
Love the little kitties!! I love to have lists and tasks I need to accomplish each day!
I always have a to-do list on the go. I fear that if I used a planner, and those fab stamps, I would have a beautiful book, but get even less done.
Your planner and your card are so cute! And your assistant is just the best (I have two orange tabbies myself 🙂 ). I have tried to use a planner and failed, I tend to do better with a big wall calendar. I am thinking to try again in the fall with the new school year! Thanks for the opportunity to win.
What you did was inspiring! Love everything because I adore TE’s Clearly Planned line! Thanks for the opportunity! =)
I love what you did! Great ideas and TE’s stamps are just too cute and fun! I’m a to do list person but haven’t found planner peace yet with decorating and everything else. =/
Wanda you make the creation of a planner look so easy. I have wanted to do one, but have had no idea of where to even begin. My phone works as my planner. I like to plan things out and know what I am doing well in advance. Thank you for all of the inspiration you give.
Your planner and all the TE stamps are adorable! I’ve been wanting to make my own for quite awhile now b/c I can’t find exactly what I want. So I wind up buying a boring one every year b/c I can’t make the time to create one. I have to make to-do lists on paper, and I have a bad habit of writing down reminders as they pop in my head at work, so I have sticky notes all over the place. Your kitty assistant is a cutie. 🙂
Such a cute week!
I used to use a Franklin Planner when my kids were younger. Now I decorate the calendar that hangs on the fridge.
Love the TE little animals peeking out!
Super cute and gorgeous planner!
I’m new to decorating my planner. I tend to do more lists and don’t really like to carry around a big thing. So I’ve been trying different things out and just love Taylored Expressions stamps. Hope to win!
I am a to do list girl. I love crossing off items as I complete them. I am just starting with a planner and I think the stamps are a wonderful addition to the planner pages.
BTW I now live in Colorado, but used to live near Los Gatos CA and love the Creative Escape previously known as Scrapbook ISland. Many fun hours shopping there and your post on the planner workshop was fun to see.
Thanks for hosting the giveaway.
I am definitely a to do list person–I am making one for the day right now! I also have a planner but it is plain–nothing like your cute one. Love the instagram cover and the cute kitties. When I don’t plan out the day I feel scattered.
I love the idea of a planner. These TE cuties might just take me over. I do love that sweet card also. These characters are too sweet. Thanks for a lovely look inside your planner.
Your planner pages are so cute-love the kitties! I am a “to-do” list person. I do like to use some of the cute planner stamps on cards & in my reading journal though.
Love the way you use these planner stamps, and a card to boot. I’ve been experimenting with Bullet Journals and hope to be ready to start for real in January.
