Weekly Happy Planner Spread | Boss Babe + Mood Tracking + This Is My Year

This week’s Happy Planner layout is all about pastel vibes and positive energy! I used the  Boss Babe ,  Mood Tracking , and  This Is My Year  sticker books — and this week’s sentiments are such good reminders to keep me grounded: Grow your own way I will only attract good things today My possibilities are endless Celebrate small victories Reminder: You don’t have to be perfect. Just be authentically you! I kept things colorful but simple this week, with more space than usual — deadlines are coming in fast! 😅 It’s also  World Cardmaking Day  (which, let’s be honest, feels more like a  month-long  celebration for us crafters, hehe). And speaking of crafting… I have a  new Design Team!   If you missed it, I recently joined  @miquekascrap , a Spain-based DT with a bunch of super talented ladies! You can read more about it  here . I’ve already finished my first project, but it won’t go live until next next weekend — so for now, he...

Weekly Happy Planner Spread | Boss Babe + Mood Tracking + This Is My Year

This week’s Happy Planner layout is all about pastel vibes and positive energy! I used the Boss BabeMood Tracking, and This Is My Year sticker books — and this week’s sentiments are such good reminders to keep me grounded:






  • Grow your own way
  • I will only attract good things today
  • My possibilities are endless
  • Celebrate small victories
  • Reminder: You don’t have to be perfect. Just be authentically you!





I kept things colorful but simple this week, with more space than usual — deadlines are coming in fast! 😅 It’s also World Cardmaking Day (which, let’s be honest, feels more like a month-long celebration for us crafters, hehe).



And speaking of crafting… I have a new Design Team! 

If you missed it, I recently joined @miquekascrap, a Spain-based DT with a bunch of super talented ladies! You can read more about it here. I’ve already finished my first project, but it won’t go live until next next weekend — so for now, here’s a little peek:



And another team announcement coming up soon too… hehehe stay tuned!


Last week was all about cards too with Stashtember — I managed to finish 26 out of 30 prompts, not bad!  We also had a quick day trip to Bahrain last Friday — just a full day of good company, Filipino food, coffee, and of course… more food! 

Lucky last Friday, as if asking me if I am sure I'd rather go to Bahrain than craft and hang out with him.



Sharing a view from our drive from Saudi to Bahrain. My friend Tanya always says photos I send are like in sepia filter. I sent her this. haha

Just a tiny sisig snob moment 😜 Only Relish and Manam for me, thank you very much!




Reading has been slow lately — two books finished and one ongoing. I tried a few new authors this time — Liz Nugent and Katherine Greene, both interesting!



Oh, and guess what? 🎄 Christmas countdown: 80 days to go!


I also signed up for a Winter Market next month (eeek!). I’ve been wanting to see if there’s a market for handmade crafts here in Saudi Arabia, so I’m taking the leap! A bit scary, but mostly exciting. I’ve made so many things — from cards to mini albums to decor — and it’s time to share them with the world. Here’s the pub I made for it (still tweaking it a bit before posting publicly, but sharing it here first):



Ending this week’s post on a happy note — grateful for creative opportunities, supportive hubby and fam, and new adventures ahead. 


Here’s to celebrating small victories and growing our own way.

  1. We were waiting for our Shawarma Rice as I read your blog, and your Bahrain food photos made me very hungry! Hahaha!

Mini Album with Tags | Polkadoodles Project

I had so fun creating this sweet little  Mini Album with Tags  using Polkadoodles printable goodies - it was fun and relaxing. This project is simple and it’s super versatile too. I designed the base cut file myself using  Cricut Design Space , and if you’re using DS, you can grab the file right here . It’s a great starting point if you’re looking for a quick and easy project with lots of room for personalization. For the papers, I used the  Happy Cactus Succulent Printable Papers  from Polkadoodles. The cheerful colors (my fave colors too!) and patterns are perfect for a spring or summer vibe. I paired them with solid cardstock for structure, using it for both the base and the tags tucked inside. The sentiment on the bellyband— “Hi, You” —comes from the  Honeypie Greetings Sentiment  pack. It’s such a simple but sweet message that works for just about any occasion. To finish it off, I tied a cute  polkadot ribbon on the tags  for a little e...

Polkadoodles Project - Kicking Off Christmas with a Clear Front Easel Card

First Christmas card of the year — check! I’m officially diving into festive crafting, and what better way to start than with a sparkly, interactive  easel clear front card ? I love how this one turned out. For this project, I combined die cutting, digital stamps, and a bit of dimension to create a unique card that’s both sturdy and see-through (yes, acetate powers!). Here’s how I made it and everything I used: Supplies Used: Plain cardstock (blue) Acetate sheet Glitter cardstock Lawn Fawn  – Snow Flurries Backdrop dies Sizzix Big Shot Ohuhu Markers Foam tape Bearly Art Precision Glue Cricut Maker Polkadoodles Digi Stamp  – Winnie White Christmas Polkadoodles Sentiment  – Seasons Greetings Paper trimmer 🛠️ How I Made It: Cut the acetate  to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches. Die cut your glitter cardstock  using any border die you like. I used Lawn Fawn’s  Snow Flurries Backdrop  for a pretty, intricate and sparkly touch. Cut plain cardstock to 4 1/4 x 11 inc...

Digi Choosday Project | Gratitude Journaling Folio with Polkadoodles Autumn Fall Fox

Digi Choosday Project | Gratitude Journaling Folio with Polkadoodles Autumn Fall Fox   This week’s Digi Choosday prompt is  Halloween / Autumn , and while I initially planned on making just one Halloween project, I couldn’t help but want to do an Autumn-inspired one too. So… here’s my second project: a  Gratitude Journaling Folio  featuring the adorable  Autumn Fall Foxes  from Polkadoodles!  This folio is actually a  one-page wonder  design, but I saw the perfect patterned papers in the  Boo Halloween Paper Digital Bundle  and  Enfys Jetsetting Digital Stamp Bundle —so I ended up layering extra panels inside. If you’re recreating this, feel free to stick with a single 12x12 patterned paper, or go wild like I did!  The  cover  is a mixed media combo of a paper doily, trims, flowers, one of the Autumn Fox digi stamps, and the word  “Grateful.”  Inside, I added more sweet words like  “Thankful” ...
