How to use stickers in your Retro Chic planner !

Hello everyone,
This is Hussena here and today I am sharing with you all the different accessories and stickers that you get with the Papericious Retro Chic planner and how to use them.

First let's have a look at what you get along with the Retro chic planner :
As you can see above, you get 3 sticker sheets and one journal tabs/tags sheet with your planner. 

Here's a closer look at all the 3 sticker sheets when taken out of their packaging :
The sheet on the left hand side is the icons and tabs sheet. It contains various stickers for your day to day use and I will be showing you how I have used them in my below pictures. The sheet in the middle is a clear sticker sheet with some fun sentiments and images and when you stick them on paper they seem almost like stamped images.
The third and the last sheet on the right hand side is the hole-guard sheet and it helps to reinforce your planner pages. See the picture below to get an idea on how it's used :

The brown circle you see below the binder rings are the hole-guards.

Now moving on to how to use the Icon and tabs stickers in your planner. Here's how I have used them in mine :

This is the monthly spread page and the dollar icon on the first represents the due payments that I have to make on the first of the month. The telephone icon against my mom's doctor appointment is self explanatory..Also notice that I have highlighted certain dates by using colored round stickers. These were actually punched from a colored cardstock. I have also done some stamping to highlight certain important dates.

This is my first week spread for the month of February. Here I have used a couple of stickers, washi tapes and stamping to make my page more colorful.

As you can see, I have used the 'Pay Day' icon sticker for the first of the month when I supposedly get my salary :)...You can use this on any date on which your payday falls though. The blue 'To do' sticker along with the horizontal 'heart checklist' sticker  is to note down the tasks for the given day or even the tasks you have to do in the particular week.

There are small 'Happy birthday' banner stickers included in the icon sheets to help you highlight the birthdays you want to remember of your family or friends.

The Weekend highlighter sticker.

The shopping cart icon sticker.

This is the second week of Feburary page and I have highlighted the Valentines' day with a quote taken from our If Only collection.

I have used the transparent stickers on the dotted washi to highlight the important task I had to do before V-day.

The Instagram icon.

The dinner icon and the 'To buy' tab.

And lastly, the blog challenge page and I have embellished it with a few die cuts from our Infinity collection and Golden Garden collection.

Hope you find this info useful for using the stickers in the Retro Chic Planner. If you have any questions regarding any of the icons stickers, do let me know in the comments and I will get back to you ASAP.

Thank you so much for joining me today and have a nice day everyone :)

Papericious Planner - RETRO CHIC!

Hello friends,
This is Hussena here and today I am sharing with you all the first look and all the details of the newly launched Retro Chic Planner.

A few days ago a good friend and fellow blogger Arjita did a short video of the unboxing of this planner where she has shown what you can expect when you purchase this planner kit. Her video is very crisp and clear about the contents of the planner and she shares some tips too on how she plans to use it. I would definitely urge you to check out her video HERE
Having said this let's begin by seeing what this planner looks like and what accessories you get with it.This is a picture heavy post so please be patient with it :)

This is how the planner looks like, it's a light beige in color and quite big in size .The outer cover is really soft and it handles quite well.

 You get  4 pack of accessories with this planner and it includes 2 Stickers sheets, one Hole-Guard sheet and one Journal sheets pack.

When you open the planner there is a side pocket on the right hand side to keep all your accessories like die cuts, tags, bookmarks and even these stickers sheets. The left hand side is the side with the journal cover or the first page insert.

Next is the monthly planner page which gives a overview of the entire month.This entire planner is meant for 6 months only and the best part is you can start using the planner from any month of the year as there are no dates given. You can customise the month and dates according to your personal preference.

 There is a "Things to accomplish" page where you can jot down your monthly or yearly goals too.

  These are the weekly pages, each month has 4 weekly pages done in the beautiful vintage style.


This is the monthly blog schedule page and also a page to note down all the challenges that are taking place in the blogland. This page is a boon to all the bloggers as it will really help you to keep track of all your scheduled posts as well as help you remember the current challenges in which you might want to participate.

This is a monthly notes page where you can write down notes of how your month was and what you have accomplished in that particular month ...On the other hand, it can also be used to jot down your favorite memory or even your favorite recipe too. The sky is the limit :)

This is the last page of the journal and on the left hand side there is a pen holder to help keep a pen with you at all times.

Now, here's a look at how I have started to use this planner. I am still in the basic stage of using it and will be including a lot of details in my second post in the meantime here's how I have started decorating the insides of it. 
I have put some die-cuts and sticker sheets on the left hand side pocket and created my own cover page on the left hand side by using the pattern paper from the recently released If Only collection.


Here I have marked a few of the important dates for the month of February.


 The important days for the first and second week of february which I have highlighted using some stamping and doodling.

The page for blog schedule and challenges :

As you can see, I have just started using this planner and I have still to fully use it, but I promise in my second post I will share with you more ideas on how to decorate the insides of your pages using the stickers in this planner kit.

Hope you all enjoyed the overview of this planner and have got a general idea on how this planner looks when you purchase it.

My team mate Manu has done an awesome post and video on the how the Color Splash Planner looks like and how she has been using it. Hope you have checked it out. Also stay tuned as my other teamies has a lot more information to share on how to use these planner !
Have a nice day everyone.

Mixed Media Canvas using If Only Pack

Hello friends,
This is Hussena here and today, I have a mixed media canvas to share using our latest valentine release the"If Only" collection. I totally love the beautiful papers in this collection which is such a perfect mix of unconventional valentine designs and colors.
So here's a look at what I have created :



And, here's few close-ups of the canvas :





The centre heart is created using small triangle pieces of paper from this collection. I have used five of the designs from this collection and have alternated it. The base of the heart is a thick watercolor paper which was die-cut using a heart die. The base of the canvas is layered with torn and distressed paper strips from the collection and I have gessoed over it. The small floral arrangement on the either side is from Papericious 'My Golden Garden' and 'Infinity' collection. These collections have the most prettiest florals in them ! 
And, ofcourse how can I forget the gorgeous butterflies which is again from the Infinity collection. The dark green leaves on the lower side are actually paper pieced from the 'If Only' pack since this collection also has gorgeous blooms in it.

Hope you like my canvas and are inspired to create something similar using our If only Paper pack. My team mates have been sharing some really fabulous inspiration using this pack. Hope you have checked out their work! :)

Valentine's Day Canvas with "If Only Paper Pack"

Hello Everyone,
Shilpa here,
And I am very happy to share with you my first project at Papricious Blog today.
I've created mixed media canvas using Papericious new collection- "If Only" specially for Valentine's day. 



I've used three pattern papers and several cut out designs from this paper collection.




To start with, I attached text paper to the canvas, created texture on it with Prima modeling paste. Let it dry completely.


I cut out hearts, frames and several other designs from the collection and arranged it with other embellishments.


Cute lil' butterfly is also from "if only" collection.
I love that blue ornate frame behind flowers.


I've used Colour Arte Twinkling H2os in the background. "Celebrate Love" is a diecut words from black card stock.

And here is final look of the canvas


Hope you enjoyed this and got inspired!
Do try this new "If Only" collection for any wedding, engagement or Valentine's day projects.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
