Damask Divas Team Everyday Life Planner Blog Hop

Welcome to the Damask Divas' Everyday Life Planner Blog Hop!

The Damask Divas' team is excited to inspire you with fabulous projects from this beautiful collection!  If you came from visiting {Mandy Leahy}, then you are in the right place.  You can see the full hop line-up over on the {Damask Divas' blog}.

The new Everyday Life collection from CTMH includes a beautiful black and gold 8"x9" album that can be used as a planner with the coordinating 2016 planner pages set, as a My Crush album with the gorgeous coordinating My Crush pages pack, as a Picture My Life album with the new 4"x6" and 4"x3" Memory Protectors, or as a combination of all 3.

Personally, I have decided to use the collection as a memory planner.  A memory planner is a fun, new way to capture moments in your life in a smaller, simpler format than a traditional scrapbook.  Now before anyone panics, I will still be scrapbooking -- but my memory planner will be used to document the daily/weekly activities in my family's life throughout the year.  It's the perfect place to capture the funny things that get said, milestones in my son's life, and other little daily moments as well as the typical stuff we like to scrapbook from birthdays to holidays and everything else in between.

Plan with Me 2016 -- CTMH Everyday Life Collection

On December 1st, Close to My Heart launched its new Everyday Life collection.  This beautiful collection focuses on the planner trend that is all the rage in the papercrafting world, but in true CTMH form, Close to My Heart expanded the collection to make it multipurposed and fun for crafters all of types.  From weekly/memory planning to My Crush to Picture My Life, the Everyday Life collection offers it all!

I am so in love with this new collection.  It is gorgeous and full of fabulous features for all.  Due to the Christmas holiday and wrapping up year-end projects at work, I'm a little behind on my crafting.  But never fear, I managed to snag some time to walk you through the collection in the latest video on my YouTube page.  I hope you'll grab a warm beverage and join me as I introduce you to the CTMH Everyday Life collection.  As an added bonus, I've included a peek at the January special for National Papercrafting Month.

Reminder -- through December 31st, you can get the exclusive Planners Gonna Plan bundle for only $29.95.  The bundle includes the black with gold foil album, the accompanying 2016 planner pages, and the coordinating Perfect Plan roller stamp.  But again, this fabulous special is only available through December 31st or while supplies last.
