Week of June 2–8, 2025 - Happy Planner Weekly Layout: Jordan Trip Prep!

So… I’ve finally made the final decision — starting this week, I’ll be writing a dedicated blog post for each weekly layout instead of just updating my original planner entry. This way, I can take a little time to reflect on the week as well, not just do a quick “here’s this week’s layout” post.

I’ve noticed something about myself: even though I have plenty of free time, I still find myself constantly juggling a dozen things at once. So many creative ideas, projects, plans… and somehow still not enough hours in the day! Not complaining, just acknowledging the beautiful chaos. 

Case in point — just last Saturday, a friend sent me a photo of a card she was working on. Naturally, I pulled out one of my PHDs (Project Half Done) and got to work. But then the doorbell rang—it was an Amazon delivery: the extension cord I ordered for our new fish tank. I opened the package and thought, might as well set it up now. That somehow led to me reorganizing the living room, which then turned into cleaning the TV table… and just like that, the card-making session was completely forgotten. 😅

Now, on to this week’s layout!



I used the Going Places sticker book (how fitting, right?) and added some washi tapes. The whole layout is basically bubbling with excitement—because next week, we’re off to Jordan! 




My husband has a 10-day break for Eid al-Adha, and we thought—why not take the chance to explore somewhere nearby that is not Bahrain? Expect a travel blog soon because I’ll definitely be documenting the whole adventure!


Until then, this week is all about prepping, packing, and daydreaming.

10 Years Married: From 8AM Vows to Riyadh City Lights

I t feels like just yesterday when we said  I do  at 8AM — and I still remember thinking,  Why didn’t we make it 9 instead? Haha. But here we are, a decade into marriage, 14 years together, and living this unexpected chapter of our lives in Saudi Arabia. Watch our SDE here !💙 Currently, we’re based in  Al Ahsa , one of the oldest provinces in Saudi. For those unfamiliar, think of it as the  probinsya  version of Saudi — calm, rich in heritage, and definitely far from the city buzz. So for our 10th anniversary, we decided to shake (yesss - shake! lol) things up a bit and drive to  Riyadh , the capital. Imagine two  probinsyanas  from some quiet part of the Philippines heading to Manila — that was the vibe. The Road to Riyadh My favorite road sign! haha! We left Al Ahsa around 10AM and arrived in Riyadh a little past 1PM. (Yes, that’s 3+ hours on the road!) With check-in at the  Four Seasons Hotel  only starting at 4PM —  4PM, c...

All the Cricut MEA Prizes I’ve Won (So Far!)

I still remember the first time I joined Cricut MEA’s Ramadan Challenges back in March 2024. I was so excited to take part daily — crafting along with the community for almost 25 days straight — until I was told that Saudi Arabia couldn’t join. 😢 Fast forward to December 2024, and everything changed! Cricut MEA officially opened up the challenges to Saudi residents — and I didn’t waste a second. I jumped right into their Christmas Countdown Challenges, and from then on, I’ve joined every single challenge they’ve hosted. December 2024 January 2025 February 2025 March 2025 And now… LOOK AT THIS LOOT! 😍 Watch my unboxing reel here. A huge, heartfelt thank you to Cricut and Monster Middle East for organizing such fun and inspiring events. My crafty heart is full, and my shelves… well, they might be full too. 😅 And of course, none of this would be possible without my husband, who has been 100% supportive of all my crafty adventures from day one. ❤️️ Stay tuned — I’ll be sharing more of w...

Happy Cutie-versary, Kelly Bangs!

Can you believe it’s been  five whole years  of Cutie craftiness?! Kelly Bangs is celebrating her 5th Cutie-versary, and as the Design Squad is joining in on the fun!   To mark the occasion, I made a mini album using a mix of some of my favorite Cutie-versary elements — like the adorable Cutie Pie trophies, Florals Greatest Hits (for florals are forever a fave!), The Shape Parade (tags and squares), Mini Guest Checks, and those sweet Scout Friends. It’s a cheerful little project that made me smile from start to finish… even with a  tiny  hiccup. Here’s the funny part: I finished decorating all the inside pages first — each one carefully layered with a piece from The Shape Parade (square) then I went ahead and glued the cover on  upside down.  😅 So now all the pages (especially the ones with the letters and number print) are technically flipped. But honestly? That’s one of the things I love most about crafting — the little mistakes that turn into happ...
