EMBELLECE TU ESCRITORIO

Buenos días! Aquí María de nuevo ( https://instagram.com/mariacgbc/ )

Espero que todo el mundo haya recibido su Kit del mes, porque es maravilloso!

Hace unos días se me ocurrió qué podía hacer con uno de los dashboards del kit de agosto (tema maquillaje) porque los colores me encantan y quería tenerlo a la vista. 

I hope everyone has received their monthly kit, because it is wonderful!

A few days ago it occurred to me what I could do with one of the dashboards of August kit (makeup theme) because I love the colors and wanted to have it in sight.

Como la mayor parte del tiempo que paso en casa, lo hago frente al ordenador, me dije, ¡una alfombrilla para el ratón! Y nada más sencillo, con un trozo de corcho , cinta de doble cara, 10 minutos y el dashboard, ya estaba tenía listo. (Edito: Finalmente he tenido que hacerme otra alfombrilla con el sobre del kit de septiembre)

As most of the time I spend at home, I use the computer, I thought, a mouse pad! Nothing more simple, with a piece of cork, double sided tape, 10 minutes and the dashboard, and it was ready!. (Edit: Finally I had to make me another mouse pad with the September box)

Puse la cinta de doble cara en el dashboard, lo coloqué encima del corcho y con unas tijeras fui cortando el sobrante y ya estaba listo! Pensé en plastificarlo, pero me gusta más el brillo que tiene, así que decidí dejarlo así.

I put the double sided tape on the dashboard, placed it over the cork and I cut with scissors surplus and it was done! I thought of laminating, but I like the brightness on the dashboard, so I decided to leave it.

Este mes estoy muy muy ocupada, está siendo una pesadilla! He decidido pintar la casa y tengo todas mis cosas amontonadas por todas partes, literalmente, estoy deseando que acaben para poder volver a colocar todo en su sitio o me voy a volver loca. (Está bien, ya estoy un poco loca…)

Cuando recibí el Kit no me podía creer el buen estado en que venían todas las cosas, y la caja es amor, no es verdad?? Ya tengo muchos planes para ellas, pero son tan bonitas que quiero guardar cada kit en la suya, así que ya veremos!

This month I am very busy, it's been a nightmare! I decided to paint the house and I have all my stuff piled up everywhere, literally, I cannot wait to run out to replace everything or I'll go crazy. (Ok, I’m a Little crazy right now)

When I received the kit I could not believe how wonderful were all the goodies, and the box was lovely. Now I have many plans for them, but they are so beautiful that I want to save each kit in it, so we'll see!

El insert para fauxdori me ha encantado (qué cosa no? Por dios, es todo tan perfecto!) quería probar con rotuladores, acuarelas, lápices, etc… Así que entre pintura y pintura (en casa), me ha dado a mi por pintar también ;)

El papel lo aguanta todo, no se dobla, y por supuesto, no hace sombra por la otra cara, estoy más que encantada.

I am falling in love with the fauxdori insert (who does not? OMG, it's so perfect!) I wanted to try markers, watercolors, pencils, etc ... So between painting and painting (at home), it has given me the idea to paint on the fauxdori insert ;)

The paper is perfect, it does not crease, and of course, no shadow on the other side of the pages, I am more than “happie” with it.

Con los inserts, pegatinas, marca páginas, charm, he decorado mis agendas en el mismo estilo que suelo usar y que es el que más me gusta <3

With inserts, stickers, bookmarks, charm, I have decorated my planners in the same style that I use and that is the one I like more <3

Al calendario – taco de notas le estoy dando muchísimo uso! Para apuntar fechas y  para hacer la cuenta atrás de días que espero con muchas ganas.

The calendar-note pad is so adorable, you can use it for so many things! To use as a event reminder and as a countdown of the days that I am looking forward to...

Y tú, qué has creado con el kit de este mes? Nos encantaría que compartieses tus ideas en el grupo de Facebook  (Happie Scrappie)

Project Management ‘Monster Style’

Hi, it is Wan on the blog today, and I will be showing you how I used my fauxdori insert from the October Happiescrappie kit to help me manage my design/creative team projects.

I am not the most organised person in the world, so I find myself scrambling to meet deadlines simply because there are times when I would mix up the dates, etc. I know things have to change and I was trying to work out how I could design a layout to coordinate everything when my Happiescrappie fauxdori planner kit arrived. The moment I laid eyes on the pages of the fauxdori insert, I KNEW that it would be just perfect for my project management in terms of the work I do for the creative/design teams.

This fauxdori insert is slightly different from the other ones I have received so far in that the pages are not all the same, which makes it easy to keep things interesting. It also gives you an opportunity to get super creative with layouts - win-win! After looking through the different pages, I thought the pages would work well in groups of 2 and 3 for my purpose, so that was how I planned my layouts. 

First up in the insert is the set of 2 pages that I have allocated to the month of October. As I needed three sections, I used washi tape to tape a journaling card from a previous month’s kit to one of the pages. I then stamped a heading using a picture icon and the word ‘ideas’ so that I have a place to use as a brain dump for the ideas I have for the month.

I then moved to the opposite page and labelled the little sweet post-it illustrations with stamps for the smaller projects I undertake as part of my creative/designer team work. As these are usually photos, I used a cute Instagram logo followed by a number because I usually have a target number I would like to hit (other than that required), and labelling them that way will keep me straight on where I am up to in that month.

Now that all the stamping for this set of pages had been done, I moved back to the page that I have attached the journaling card to and used stickers to demarcate the three bigger projects I usually have for the two teams before filling in the necessary information. With the due dates as well as the steps required to complete the tasks all written down, it would be so much easier for me to keep on top of things.

With that done, the layout for these 2 pages is complete and I can now easily track where I am in terms of all my creative/designer team projects for the month of October.

Next up is the layout I designed for the set of 3 pages for the month of November. As one of the pages has a blank space perfect for the brain dump, I did not use a journaling card as for the first set of pages, but just used the same stamps I used for the heading of the journaling card to label the space.

I then used stickers on the opposite page to mark out the three projects just like what I did for the first set of pages.

As for the third page, it has little squares that gives the page a similar feel to the page with the post-it illustrations, so I just went with the flow and used the page in exactly the same way as I have used the post-it illustrations. As you can see from the attached picture, I labelled the squares with the same stamps that I used for the post-it illustrations.

After stamping in the headings for the squares, this set of pages is now all ready to be used for my projects in November. As a side note, although I am currently using this insert for project management in terms of my creative/design team work, I think this kind of layout would work too, with some adaptation (like different headings), for any kind of project management (project life, gardening, paper crafting, etc).

And this is it from me for today. I hope that this post has given you some ideas on how you can use your fauxdori planner kit. Have fun and Happie planning!
