November Misc. Me by Lynn Shokoples

Can you believe it's the last day of 2013? This year has gone by so quickly. My goal for 2013 was to work on my Misc.Me journal every month and I'm happy to say I've done it! This month I've chosen to work with the new Pincushion collection. The colors are so soft and the elements are just so adorable! These pages came together in no time.

I just can't say enough about the double sided cardstock! All the cards were cut out and then I just use the pattern paper on the back to place my photo on. Easy right? With the Noteworthy, stickers and the layers chipboard.. there are so many fun things to choose from.

As you can see here in Canada winter came with a vengeance, so I have tons of snow pictures already! I'm busy working on my December pages and then I'm happy to say I have a whole year of photos, journaling and memories for 2013! Now the decision is... what to do for 2014! Happy New Year everyone!

Misc Me The Avenues Organizer/Diary for 2014 by Denise van Deventer

I wanted a diary/organizer for 2014 and so when I saw this Misc.Me binder and goodies, I just knew that I wanted to create a diary/organizer for myself. I am a person who likes to keep all my info etc in one place, so I decided to have my diary, journal and personals all in this one binder and I am so pleased that I did this. I cannot wait to start using it and I just know it is going to bring me much joy!

I love pretty books and so I wanted a pretty cover, which will inspire me to pick it up everyday and really use it, as it is meant to be used!

I am also a very upbeat person and I love inspiring quotes and notes, which allow me to start my day in a positive frame of mind.  So my inside cover consists of that, along with my name card, which really makes this book so personal to me.

I obviously will fill in notes and dates as the year starts and progresses.

For each month I have the beautiful divider, then I have the weekly contents page, along with some notepapers for my notes and journalling and then I have prepared some pockets for photo's and thoughts! I love this combination of uses and love that this Misc Me is so versatile and user friendly.

I have used both sides of my pocket cards, so that I get more use out of the cards, as well as keeping down the bulk in my organizer. Stamps, stickers and petals are so great with Misc Me, because they add features, without adding bulk.

The time I have spent creating these pages has been very therapeutic, in that I have had time to consider the year ahead and the things that I want to document, remember and keep. In a way, it has been a preparation for things that lie ahead, and I am excited and happy about 2014.

You can make these organizers/diaries as personal as you want, as simple as you want or as complex and integrated as you want! Whatever works for you! That's the beauty of it!

What a GREAT Misc Me idea!

Most us know that a Misc Me 8 x 9 binder can be used as a journal, planner, or recipe book.

Have you stopped to think of the other creative uses of a Misc Me?

Bernii and Agnieszka have both shared with us their creative use of the Misc Me product line.

Bernii's GREAT idea: Turn her Misc Me into a showcase album of her own personal handmade clothes.

Agnieska's GREAT idea: transform her Misc Me into a collage of fashion clippings from magazines, add pictures and leave space for her daughter to write her thoughts.

"Sew" Misc Me album using the Pincushion Collection by Bernii Miller

When I first saw the brand new Pincushion collection, I knew instantly what I wanted to document with all of these gorgeous papers. I love all things hand-made and love to create when ever possible. So much so that I started my own hand-made clothing brand. I have always taken pictures of the clothing that I make, but I never really knew how to document them, until BoBunny released this collection. 

I have created different tabbed sections within my album using the fun elements direct form the Misc Me Pincushion Journal Contents pack. All I did to create the dividers was align the pages with the clips, marked in with pencil where they aligned and then used my hole punch. 

I also grabbed different elements from the Noteworthy pack and decided to add some extra tags in for more interactive fun. The Noteworthy pack is full of so many fun die cuts, that the possibilities are endless. 

Here is a close up of the tag with a Pincushion Cardstock sticker added onto it. I then finished it off with some punched butterflies and a cute bow using seam binding tape. 

When I created this little Misc Me album I wanted to use as many fun and interactive elements as possible. I was lucky to have an extra bow in my sewing stash, that I simply adhered some Dimensional Magic to the back and stuck it right down on the cute paper frame. I also cut up some of the Pincushion Patchwork paper and cut the strips down to fit the length of the album. Again I just measured out the spaces of the clips and punched holes into the strips. It is just another little way to add a fun element and I really find it helps to unite the two pages in the album into one. 

Then to finish off the album I created a spine to match the album contents using again the Sew Cute card stock sticker, adhering it to some card stock and creating a banner. 

I have created more fun elements through out my Misc Me album and you can check them out on my blog over at http://weekendatberniis.blogspot.com.au/. There you can see more of how I used the Pincushion collection to create my Misc Me album.

Fashion and Style Misc Me by Agnieszka Bellaidea

I never expected I would have so much fun creating a project with the new Misc Me products. I had the idea of mixing photos, fashion ideas and hand notes. I remember a long time ago seeing my Mom make something similar.

I mostly used elements from the Pincushion collection, but I also added some parts from The Avenues and Zip-A-Dee-Doodle to show you how nicely our collections mix together.

I think Misc Me can be a great gift for someone and I hope my girl will like this one I made for her. I left plenty of space for her to fill in and we can continue to work together on this because there are still many pages left.
