Hello! I’m so excited to show you my creative business planner set-up. This planner is filled with inspiration and eye candy for me to dream and plant ideas for my creative business. Unlike my everyday planner, I’m filling this one with lots of ephemera and pretty papers to inspire my creativity. In the video, I talk about goals and plans I want to work on to build a stronger business as a creative entrepreneur.
Thanks for watching!

Oh Wow! Valentines is two days away! Have you mailed your love letters to your friends, family and sweetheart? This year the planner group, ATX Planner Addicts, exchanged Valentine Happy Mail, so it was fun having someone to send some sweet sentiments to. I wanted to create something that would easily fit into an envelope and ship well. I actually got the idea from an Esty Shop called a Pocketful of Sparkle, making envelope paperclips! I used the mini envelopes that came in the February Planner/ Stationery Kit.
I filled each envelope with little bits and bobs of paper flowers, sequins and a teeny tiny
note.
I attached the paperclip to the inside of a mini card I created using a Jar shaped punch. The jar I filled with flowers and tied a piece of baker’s twine for the top.
Packed then up in pretty little envelopes and added a tag I found in the bins at Target in the Dollar Spot area.
These little letters were made with LOVE and I hope the recipients enjoyed them as much as I enjoyed making them!
Happy Valentines, Rebecca
Hello! Lately I have been inspired by Celeste from "Precious to Me" on Periscope and Instagram to paint my planner! This has been so fun and I’m beginning to think I want to paint all of my planners!!
In this video I used a Recollections ring bound planner from Michaels. I started with a coat of Gesso and used Acrylic paint and Jane Davenport’s Mermaid Watercolor Pencils to paint the girl image. I plan to add more to the back ground and once I fill her up I will post a flip through video! If you want to follow the process of filling her up I will be posting Sneak Peeks on Instagram and Facebook!

First let me say YAY!!! I am so excited that I have completed this year’s December Daily! Several years I haven’t quite completed it and I regret it every time, so I am thrilled to wrap a bow around this journal! In this video I walk you through the day to day and what I documented this Christmas. Things did not quite end up how I had expected but that is Life. Every year is different in one way or another! Are you completed with your December Daily? If not do not despair there is plenty of time to get those memories down even if it is June of this year!

Hello and welcome ALMOST to the NEW Year! In this video I talk about the One Little Word process and Close out of 2017 and saying Hello to 2018. Each year I sign up with Ali Edwards and follow her prompts for keeping my word ‘ALIVE" throughout the year! Although I may not complete each month I love the fact I can go back and revisit the prompts to bring the word back into my life. For 2017 the word never "escaped" my everyday. CHANGE was a huge part of my life and my family’s life. This year my word is LEARN. Check out the video and I will show you my process.

So grab a cup of coffee or tea and let’s get creative! In this video I’m prepping a few pages in my December Daily Journal using a napkin, journal cards, craft bag with tags and watercolor! I had so much fun and I hope you are inspired!

Hello and Welcome Back to the 12 Days of Christmas Journaling…Day 10! We will not be discussing Lords a Leaping but we are talking daily prompt ideas. I found several lists and ideas on Pinterest and printed out a few along with creating a board specific to December Daily. If you would like to check it out, I’m under RebeccaHoot. One of the journaling prompts I found and it is from Lakeshorelearning.com
Also in this video, I show you how I get a jump start on journaling pages by grouping photos and ephemera together for quicker documentation. I hope you can find daily prompts that inspire you!!
