Planner Layouts


Hi Friends,

What can I say this month has just flown by. I must say the April Love from Lizi kit was my favourite, I loved the adorable egg stamps, the vibrant coloured papers and the creativity it inspired within me. I adore crafting and I founds this kit just inspired me to create lots of lovely crafts.

I am an organised planner geek, so my mind raced and my heart pounded with happiness, when I realised this kit screamed planner layouts!!



So out sprung my happy planner and the creativity began, the stickers included in the kit and the clear add on stickers were perfect for planning!


As were the lovely papers and adorable embellishments.


For my first layout I used the clear stickers, add on Washi tape (I am obsessed with Washi!)


I used the bunting embellishments for my header and went to town with the stickers, I loved the simple, vibrant spring feel to this layout.


Next, I did my Easter layout, using the gorgeous bunny, thatch and multi-coloured papers. I finished it off with more washi and the stunning white peel offs.



Look how adorable that washi is!?

Hope you've had a lovely April and have been doing lots of crafting?

10 Projects 1 Kit



Hi Crafty Friends, 

I am rather excited to introduce a new segment to my Youtube channel and blog, its 10 Projects 1 kit. This months Love From Lizi kit, is the amazing Spring themed April kit. Its full of Easter surprises, spring cuteness and stamping success.

It has cute bunny bobble tails, chick stamps and stunning papers, I am living the crafting dreams. I am getting to create projects with beautiful supplies.

My series will be 3 videos each month using the Love From Lizi kit, to make 4 cards, 3 planner layouts and 3 scrapbook layouts. This makes a total of 10 Projects.


I am so excited as these are crafts that I have a passion for and love that I get to share them. The great thing about this kit is its so versatile so that not only can it be used for making cards, it also works for stunning planner pages, scrapbook story pages, kids crafting and paper projects.

Part one of my projects this month was cards. This months kit is Easter and spring themed and that led me very well to creating 3 Easter themed children's cards and an adults spring card.

For card I used a stunning patterned paper, an individual element and a sentiment. 


I loved how whimsical and cutesy these two particular cards turned out, I loved adding the fluffy tail to the bunny and I adore how sweet that rabbit looks popping out of the basket of eggs.


This kit brought back so many fond memories of Easter egg hunts growing up, the vivid colors and textures in the kit reminded me of decorating eggs and crafting cards as a child.


After making three child friendly Easter cards I chose to do my last card as a spring themed card for an adult.

It was a very simple card but, I loved how the window allows the butterfly to be the main focal point of the card whilst open or closed.


I also loved how the spring sentiment sat nicely on the edge of the window and finished off the card.

There is a video tutorial at the bottom of this page of how to make each of the cards featured in this blog post.

I am so excited to share this will you all, below is a sneak peak of the 10 Project 1 kit, Part 2- Planner Layouts.


Please let me know which card was your favourite?


Happy Crafting!!
