Moments Inked Travel Planning...

Moments Inked Banner
We are on the final days of the countdown to summer vacation and with the arrival of summer brings a pretty busy summer.  Lots of kid stuff and lots of travel!  I have prepared some pages tucked inside my planner, just to help get organized.  We have 3 big trips planned so far and I am hoping to squeeze in a few more, but here is one set of very simple organizational pages for all those lists I love to make.

There are 4 of us, so using the 3x6 post it notes works perfectly to give each of us a list of our "must haves" or "don't forgets".  I stacked up 4 notes and then washi taped them on to my clear dashboard....

Planner travel pages

Lining the large lined stamp from Posted II Stamp set works perfectly using a stamp positioner.  I was able to stamp them all quickly.

I used ones of the listed words from the Listed stamp set at the top of the packing lists.

Next, I die cut 3 pages from white card stock using the large page die from the Divided Die set.

I stamped the Listed image again on each page.  I really like to keep things simple, so I added a strip of washi on each page for a little decoration.

At the top of each page, I added a large paper clip, to attach any print outs, coupons or documents we need for each page.  I have one for Travel Info, Itinerary and Kids Activities.

And just to coordinate and block out the days on the planner itself, I have the same washi starting on the first day of vacation....

....and ending on the last day.

I cut the rainbow out of the 6 different color card stocks and then added a cloud and sentiment.  I stamped a little heart and then added some glossy accent to finish it off.

Welcome to Day 3 of the MFT May Countdown.  I have a card to share today using an adorable new set called Magical Unicorns.

I did a little distress inking in the background and then created the scene using the images from the new set.  I pulled out my Copics and did a little coloring for this occasion! These unicorns are so adorable and I do love anything rainbow!

MFT Blueprints Challenge...

Our challenge this month for the Creative Construction with Blueprints, is to use the strips, tags and flags found in the MFT Blueprint dies, to add a sentiment on to a card.

I created this card to look like the sky...

Print

I added in the Stitched Cloud Edge dies to create the top of the card after blending in the ink along the bottom.  Next, I added in the watercolored butterfly die.  I needed to find the perfect place for a sentiment, so I knew vellum would be perfect with this stitched banner.

To finish it off, I added in some rain drops.  A fun CAS card using a banner to add in the sentiment.  Stop over to the MFT blog to see more for today's Blueprints Challenge.  Thanks for stopping by!

My Favorite Things and Xyron...



I have a fun post to share today!  Xyron and MFT are doing a little collaboration and I have a card and some products to share.

First up, here is my card...

MFT/Xyron

I used the Geometric Grid Background and some Distress inks to create this panel.  I cut the panel into 4 strips and ran each through the Xyron Sticker Maker to stick them down to the white panel.

Next, I took the "friend" die and ran it through the Sticker Maker.  This is such an easy way to add adhesive to the back of your detailed dies.

You just feed it into the front of the little machine and then crank it out....

After I adhered it to my card front, I took the Xyron Adhesive Eraser Cube and just cleaned up the edges of the sentiment.  This handy little tool is going to be a life saved in my craft room.   I always have some type of adhesive to remove from somewhere!

I also added a sentiment on a vellum banner and added in some sequins for some added detail....

MFT/Xyron
