Our 4th Challenge this year is all about Planning! Most people use a calender or personal planner to keep track of their life and planners have become on the fashion again. With the school year ready to start again this is a hot topic for everyone with kids. And for others a calender or planner can be the essence of a well functional career. Many of us use a notebook to keep track of things, to note important tasks or just scribble down ideas that come to our minds during the day (or night for that matter….). SO be creative! Pimp your calender or make a notebook! To participate all you need to do is link up your project using the linky tool at the bottom of this post.
Challenge Guidelines:
Type of project: Make a calender, altered calendar, agenda or notebook – share how you stay organized, share a page, share the book, share how you put one together.
Colors: You need to use the color shades in the mood board pictured above. White and black are allowed as compliment.
Last day to enter: September 5
