How to Design a Happy Planner using Design Space

Image
 I have used Design Space in order to plan my layouts for a long time. It occurred to me that I could do the same thing with my Happy Planner Using basic shapes included in Design Space I recreated my Happy Planner in all 3 sizes on the canvas. From there I can apply and size images to create stickers. To use my templates click HERE Once I had placed and sized all the images I wanted. I flattened each image to create my sticker. I printed them out on sticker paper and then cut them with the cricut. Please note: for best results use the custom materials setting and search for sticker paper! Thank you so much for stopping by! Blessings,

So, I realize I've been doing a terrible job posting any of my projects - for that I apologize to. . . myself. :) I have been making handmade gifts for friends and family for the last couple of months and have not spent a lot of time scrapbooking. I suppose I should have taken pictures and posted about all those handmade crafts, but that for some reason did not occur to me so, oh well. Since the holidays are now past I have been trying to update my family Christmas album. I am a couple of years behind. So, I thought that I would share some of those layouts here. Enjoy!

25 Days of Christmas December 19th

Welcome to Erica's Craft Room 25 Days of Christmas, with 25 Cricut projects a day. Don't forget to stop by Erica's blog to see 24 more projects today.... and every day in December. http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com TODAY'S THEME IS HOT CHOCOLATE/TEA/COFFEE I absolutely love coffee, maybe a little too much for my own good, so when I saw this theme I got really excited. I decided to make a card around one of my favorite things to do during the holidays, besides scrapping that is. I love to sit in my front living room with a cup of coffee, my family nearby, and a beautiful Christmas tree all lit up in front of me. This is definitely my favorite time of year. I used two cartridges for this card and one is of course Winter Frolic from which came the coffee cup and then I cut the tree from the Christmas cartridge (which surprised me because I had completely forgotten that I had that - I think it must have come preloaded on my gyspy).  Well, since we in the coffee mod...
