Blog Update – Baby News!

Hello peeps and blog visitors! Yes, I have been completely absent this past month and for good reason. My son and his wife welcomed their first baby this Tuesday, September 28, 2021. He was expected to be born today but he decided he would make his own plans!

Needless to say, I am overjoyed and especially that this little tyke is a healthy baby boy…and the parent's are now trying to get their rest. Lol! I am volunteering to (of course) do my pleasant duty as a new Nana, to adjust to my new role by helping out with the new arrival.

I just wanted to give you a quick update as to what is going on behind the scenes. And, of course, I hope you are enjoying all my previously published items on the blog.

I would also like to mention a housekeeping item on my list regarding the blog. For those of you who request a download or access to my links, all of them are available via Google Drive; however, it is not on my end that you can not gain access. Most of you who can not access my links are either on a school network or other type of private computer network. In this case, it is your network administrator who restricts your access to my downloads. I can neither advise you on my end because your network administrator has blocked my access. I hope that answers some of your questions regarding your inability to get a hold of my blog resources.

Thanks and Happy Fall!

August Pocket Scrapbooking Mini Calendar

Hello peeps! I hope you had a great week and are enjoying your weekend, and with that, I thought I would get this August themed mini calendar out to you today.

I wanted to get these mini-calendars out to you in this month, just in case you are still finishing up on some project life or art journaling projects for August. A reader commented on the fact that I had missed the month of January for these mini calendars, so I released that one and now have listed the links for the whole year to date, below.

These gorgeous photographs are from talented photographers who post their photos on Unsplash, one of my favorite sites for gorgeous, professional and free pics. The rest of the template design is mine. This time I chose photos with lovely orange/peach flowers and who doesn't love a beautiful butterfly!

These are the size of pocket scrapbooking journaling cards (3″ x 4″) , so they are small enough to pop into your planners, if you like. I hope you like it!

Mini Calendar Specs

I am releasing a August version of these project life mini calendars.

I have this set of Mini Calendars (3″ x 4″) available as a free printable jpeg download for either your project life or other pocket scrapbooking projects.

Of course, you can also use them on your other papercrafting and types of weekly planner projects. If you have the MAMBI arc punch, you can also include them in your Happy Planners.

Note: Please do not use either the images or calendars for sale on POD online markets such as Zazzle, Cafepress, Shopify or other similar print on demand online markets. The copyright strictly belongs to VintageGlamStudio template designs.

Thank you for all your Pinterest and other social media pins…

My favorite paper for printing out these pocket scrapbooking mini calendars' is EPSON Ultra Premium Presentation Paper – Matte, however, you might like the glossy finish.

Mini Calendar Printing Tips

[For best printing results, make sure you use a premium 4″ x 6″ photo paper set on Landscape for the best layout and maintain the aspect ratio so that there is no distortion in your printout.]

The finished items should be able to fit your standard 3″ x 4″ pocket scrapbooking pages or traveler's journal plastic pocket photo inserts or Becky Higgins project life planner pages. Just thought I would mention again, since not all blog visitors are familiar with this type of crafting.

These inserts are different from your standard clear pocket and business card inserts for the traveler's notebook.

Enjoy!

monthly layout

Hello peeps…So, here we are in the month of August and I thought I would get this monthly layout for August out to you. It's scorching hot in the part of Southern California, that I live in. It's been that way for a month and one half! The weather is hovering around 105 degrees daily , so it was difficult imagining cool, muted colors for early fall!

Planner Stickers Specs

These planner stickers are specifically designed for fans of the Classic Happy Planner by Mambi or similar Week At A Glance Planners or other weekly planners such as the Plum Paper Planner that have wider boxes for the monthly spread.

The functional planner stickers, especially the box stickers, are sized to fit within the monthly calendar boxes specifically for the monthly spread of the Classic Happy Planner.

However, there are several resizing instructions on Pinterest on what percent to print this printable in order to resize the printable for personal planners with smaller dimensions.

If you would like to see the past month's “monthly layout” planner stickers, these layouts are for this year. They also include part of last year's published posts; however, these posts provide the “No Header” option, so you will have flexibility with what month or year you use them. ( Note: I have straightened out the links to the past months.)

Also, if you are new to this site, I wanted to let you know that I have a board on Pinterest that you might want to follow that has several pins (ideas) by other planner designers, stationery, home office decor, office supplies and planner freebies that are mostly planner related, you can view that board and/or follow here, Home Office | Planners & Stationery Favs.

There are more than 90+ planner stickers or elements total in today’s release. As always, these stickers and elements can either be used for journaling in your project life projects, smashbooks, art journals or other types of memory keeping and papercrafting but these were made specifically for you Erin Condren Planner and Filofax fans.

Note ***Please see my Terms of Use below before downloading if you have not to been to this site before.***

How to Use this “ Monthly Planner Stickers” Printable:

There are several ways you can use this printable to create your stickers and I have included a few in the following instructions:

1) The easiest way to use this printout is to print it out on a full sheet of white sticker paper and if you own a Silhouette Cameo or Silhouette Portrait or other digital cutter, you can cut out the to-do lists or planner stickers using their designer software.

2) Also another method, would be to use heavy bond printer paper or you can use 65 lb. white cardstock depending on how thick you want your sticker and then place adhesive via a snail tape runner or with a Xyron sticker tool or machine.

3) The most labor intensive (or time consuming) way is to print out the planner stickers on sticker paper and “fussy cut” out by hand, I have spaced the elements so that you can use a pair of good craft scissors to get a clean cut and handle the fussy cutting. Another handy tool to have for the straight cuts is a slide or rotary paper trimmer which will reduce cutting around the stickers. Reader tip: Cut them while watching TV. Woot-Hoo…multi-tasking.

Facts about the freebie:

One set of HP functional planner stickers on an 8 1/2″ by 11″ jpg file. I've changed from pdfs to high resolution jpegs in order to keep the file sizes much smaller. (1 MB each)
These elements were created at 300 dpi, so your printing results should be very clear and sharp with a smooth lay down of the ink color. The preview pictures both on the blog and on Google are at 72 dpi, so you often can not see all the detail accurately or colors are sometimes distorted.
Color scheme: slate green, gold, muted pink, tan

As usual these freebies are free for personal use, (check my TOU if you haven’t previously.) If you have been here before, you know the drill. If not, you might want to read the quick TOU below before you access the printable.
