I am so excited to share my very first Snap project and Oh my goodness I had so much fun creating my album. First off, I would like to show how beautiful this "So Happy Together" Collection truly is. The colors are so bright and cheerful. I fell in love with the yellow color so I decided to use the yellow stripe 6x8 binder
 
Just look at all these amazing papers. They are all so pretty. The  color combinations are pretty amazeballs.
My family is everything to me so this collection is perfect for memory keeping for my family's adventures. I will be adding more to this album in the future. I would love to fill these pages with photos and memories.
I really wanted the word "family" to stand out so I created a very simple cover for my album.

 I cut out these 2x2 elements from one of the 12x12 papers. I just arranged them how I wanted. Super easy to do.

 Most of the paper elements I used are from the 12x12 papers that I cut up.

 Tags, tags, and more tags. I decided to cut up small tags and inserted them inside these 2x2 pockets. I also added eyelets to add dimensions. I just thought they look really pretty and I can add photos or journals later on.

 I made this large tags from the basic kit papers. By adding the twines, it will make it a lot easier to pull out the tags.

 You can have so much fun with all the different sizes of pocket pages available.

 Home is where the heart is.

Thank you for stopping by and viewing my very first Snap project. I promise you that you will be seeing more Snap projects from me as I am totally addicted creating them.

My family and I are a huge Disney Fans. The Say Cheese collection was one of my favorite, but now there's a Holiday version so I was really giddy and jumping up and down with joy.
 
 Let me tell you that I am a scrapbooker at heart who is also a planner girl who loves creative planning and memory keeping. You can probably guess that I will be using this collection to set up my planner.
 Being a planner girl, I love to show my desk view. I love decorating my desk with the current collection I am obsessing over. So guess what? I am obsessing with this collection at the moment.

I want to share with you what I love using in setting up my planner. First, I love love using the bits & pieces and the chipboard pieces. I normally use them to decorate and stuff my planner pockets so when I first open up my planner, I have a view that I can stare at all day long, well not all day but it gives me the chance to adore my set up.
 Tell me you don't think these bits & pieces aren't cute? They are so adorable especially when I use them in my planner as decor.
 I also love using the combo stickers. I mostly use them in my monthly and my weekly layout. As I mentioned, I love creative planning and memory keeping. Think of it as scrap booking but instead of creating 12x12 layout, I use the monthly and the weekly view and I just have fun and start decorating. You can also think about it as portable album that I carry with me everywhere.

I use the 12x12 double sided papers to create my insert cover. I would then decorate the front cover with embellishments.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope you love this collection as much as I do. Well then, off I go to set up my planner.

Every girls dream is to be a princess waiting for her prince charming and live happily every after.
I decided to use the "Little Princess" Collection to set up a fairy tale theme TN for my 3 year old daughter. She's at that age where she loves all the princesses.
 
  The little girl inside of me was so excited and I felt giddy when this collection came out. This collection has many gorgeous papers that I couldn't decide what to use for my front insert cover. 
I decided to create a simple and yet colorful insert cover. I used the paper with the quote "Believe in Happily after" This paper is already decorated with lots of flowers and it didn't really need much more embellishments. I just added the chipboard "Princess" sticker to the top, the princess chipboard sticker to the right bottom and scattered some butterflies with the flowers. I finished it off with adding some enamel dots.
 Of course, every princess deserves planner pockets full of love with magical embellishments.
Deep down inside we all want our own "happily ever after"
 I just love the side view of this set up with the princesses tabs sticking out to the side.
I had so much fun creating this section. I used different papers in which I cut them in different sizes and layered them to give it more of that 3D appeal. I also used my flower punch for the edges. I used couple of bits & pieces to decorate the middle area. I am planning to add pictures of my daughter later on when we visit Disneyland to see the princesses.
 Gotta love the side view which shows the layers I created.
As I mentioned in the beginning, I set up this TN for my 3 year old daughter. She love tracing her hands and I love documenting it. We can look back at this page to see how much she's grown.
 I also let her write and draw on the page as you can see here. I then decorated around her drawings. For now I didn't let her add stickers and washi tapes since I have a little OCD and I want everything to look perfect. Maybe later on when she's old enough I will let her add her stickers and decorate her own page with the washi tapes. Until then, mommy will control the pages.
 The planner community has always been my inspiration in creating my projects and layouts. I love love seeing every one's beautiful work. Everyone is going gaga over pen sleeves that I was inspired to create my own to match my Princess Set Up. I used the "hello princess" double sided paper and cut into the size I wanted to hold my pens. I cut two square pieces. One to go in the front and one in the back. I laminated both pieces and I sewed all around the sides except for the top.
I ran over a little challenge while creating this pen sleeve. I first used a 10mm laminating sheet but it was too heavy and too hard to sew. So I decided to use 5mm instead and it worked out well. I was able to sew through both laminated pieces.
I am super excited for my daughter to fill the pages with her drawings and I cannot wait to add pictures.
Thank you for stopping by and hope you have a great day.
