A Creative Journey: Planner Post #3 - July Week #3 Planner Spread

Happy Wednesday! I'm sharing last week's planner spread from inside my planner with you today. To create my planner spread, I've used a variety of the dies from the Planner Essentials line. You'll want to read below to learn how to recreate my July Week #3 Planner Spread at home.

To start, choose a couple of patterned papers from the Mintay - 7th Heaven Paper Pack as well as the matching cut aparts. Next, you'll need the page from the Planner Essentials - 10 die, die cut the page out of one of the patterned papers. Ink the edges of the page using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

You'll need the page from the Planner Essentials - 3 die, die cut the page out of the other patterned paper. Apply Victorian Velvet Distress Ink to the July word off of the Months stamp set and stamp onto the tab of the page. Ink the edges of the page using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Next, you'll need the large rectangle off of the My Life stamp set. Apply Victorian Velvet Distress Ink to the stamp and stamp onto a piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Reapply the ink to the stamp and stamp again. Repeat the previous step five more times. Cut each box out. Apply Stormy Sky Distress Ink to each of the days of the week from the Calendar stamp set and stamp one of the days on each of the boxes. Write in the boxes. Ink the edges of the boxes using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
