Goodbye 2017

It’s the last week of 2017. Fifty-two weeks have come and gone in the blink of an eye.

On a personal level, this year has been good to me. My friends and family are in good health, and that’s all I could ask or hope for.

And, on a creative level, I am so grateful for all the doors of opportunity that opened my way. I never thought in a million years I’d be collaborating with companies to do what I love, create.

In other creative news, my husband and I have combined our strengths and are working on something magnificent…together. I’ll share this magnificence very soon!

2018 is just around the corner and I’m entering it full throttle. Stay tuned to see what’s in store.

Just an FYI, I entered the world of bullet journal-ing without really knowing how much I was going to enjoy creating my own calendars and weekly layouts…I’m addicted!

Without further ado, this is my last layout for 2017. I created a similar layout earlier this year and I must say, it’s my most favorite (it’s gotta be the stationery supplies).

Details

This is the bullet journal I use.

I started this layout with writing in the month on the top of the right page. I used this brush pen from Michael’s but this pen set is similar. I added a bit of definition to the purple lettering with this gel pen and wrote in the dates with the purple pen from this set.

Then, with my acrylic block, ink, and this stamp set (the washi/banner stamp set is old and I don’t have the packaging to share who it’s by) I started stamping different stationery supplies onto the spread.

Once I was finished with the stamps, I drew boxes for each day of the week (combining the weekend together) with this ruler and the purple pen from this set.
