One Little Word Blog Hop | 2015

Welcome to the One Little Word Blog Hop!

Hope you have enjoyed seeing what everyone has been up to and
please link your blog at the bottom of the post so we can all visit you as well.

This is my second time doing Ali Edward's OLW course.

The first time my word was 'move' in 2011
and I only completed January's prompts and  then pretty much abandoned it all by March.

So this year I'm further ahead already :)

I've decided to keep my OLW in a Websters Pages Planner and
adapt the prompts so they fit in.  

I simply cut a few page protectors (left over from the first course) so they

fit into the planner and just used my old crop-o-dile to punch new holes. 

I copied someone's glitter pocket that I saw as part of the OLW facebook group. Sorry I can't seem to find whose it was now.

February Vision Board.
 I'm happy with the way it turned out :)  

I did it over two journal pages

I added a third title page so that there isn't a blank page between Jan and Feb

things I noticed :

1.  It felt good to be physically creative with paper and glue.  Its been a long while since that has happened for me.

2.  I bought a BHG magazine specifically because the front cover was my favourite colour and it had the word renew on it.  (renew was going to be my word before it changed)

It never ended up on my board.

3.  I noticed I found 3 of my past words and had included them naturally.

So I deliberately added to last 2 to make a complete set.

4.  I bought a Yoga magazine and didn't want to cut it up too much because it reminded me how much I like yoga and maybe I might want to get back into it.

5.  I cut out way more stuff than would fit.  But once I was done, I was done, and all the rest went into recycling without a second thought.

6.  I feel energized and wish there was a second February prompt :)

One little word | Webster's Pages Planner

My Websters Planner is here!

 

Considering I pre-ordered it in Oct

Delivery was supposed to be here in Dec

But It's in my hands now in Jan.

I think I won't use it as a traditional planner, Rather it will be my One Little Word album.
 

Last time I did the OLW course in 2011 (very unsuccessfully I might add)

One of  things that I found held me back was the size of the album and the layout.

I had a lovely Pink Paisley 8X11 cloth album with all the dividers.
However it didn't suit me.

My one little word journey is personal and I was tossing around the idea
of putting it in a journal this time around.

But enter in the Websters Planner and it all just clicked.
The planner is like a journal/scrapbook binder album
combined.
I am excited to embelish, add, alter pages as i work with my word.

I'm ready to start with January's prompts :)
