Especial Planner Spread  
   

By Veronica Milan

 

Hello and happy summer where ever you are!
I love these slow-paced summers filled with lazy days by the pool, cold berries in mason jars, new summer movies, reading fun books, and playing all day. One of my favorite ways to document these days is through my memory planner!

 

 

Today I used the bright and summer-filled collection from Obed Marshall, Especial. I created many extra pockets and one of my favorite techniques is to use clear sheets and add alcohol ink for a water effect. I then placed some pool photos inside.

 

 

I love stitching pockets with pattern paper and tags too! These extra pockets really help with extra photos and journaling!

Then I add blended ink spots on spaces to add pops of color throughout the spread, I like to overlay journaling or puffy stickers to decorate my empty spaces. I hope you find some fun inspiration to create beautiful summer pages!
