Word of the day

Diary....the girls have long watched me use my planner on a daily basis. And watched me evolve into memory planning (planning plus memory keeping). My biggest discovery during Covid-10 last year, was the TCMC community. TheCoffeeMonsterzCo has become my latest obsession to use in my planner. Helen (the wonderful creator) has the cutest emoti stickers. And my washi collection has grown considerably the last year. Well this week SweetieS asked me for a a lined notebook so she could start keeping a diary. Needless to say I was super happy that she has chosen to follow in mummy's footsteps (I still have all my diaries tucked away)

Since she had asked for a simple notebook I felt I needed to spruce it up a little. So I started with printing her a calendar to start of the month. And what better calendar than the freebie TCMC offers on their Facebook group? (this is the most amazing group, so I recommend joining if you need some sunshine in your life - doesn't hurt if you like planner and sticker though)

how cute is this calendar???

The cover design was chosen by the girls, both the flower (from a few I had picked out) and the foil color. I love how they turned out. Excited to see how long this hype lasts....

-Do you keep a diary?
