You made my day...I've been waiting for this video. Gorgeous work as always. TFS

[@AnnetteGreen]

Oh Shirley, thank you so much. So kind. I'm happy you enjoyed it.

[@cherylwells1266]

Annette - this paper collection is perfect for a planner. I have all of El's planner dies and stamps, and this definitely is one of my favorite - I need to get started!!!! I love how you did your pages, and thank you so much for sharing this beautiful planner with us.

[@AnnetteGreen]

Thank you so much Cheryl. I appreciate your kind words. I'm excited for you to make your planner! Have fun with it. And thanks for watching.

Hey Annette.....girl, this tutorial was so A-MAZING in sooooooo many ways that it would take me an hour to type out all the tips/tricks and info that helped me, seriously! It looks absolutely FANtastic and I can't wait to get started on mine (once I recover from surgery). I will of course be getting your Calendar printouts from your shop, which I greatly appreciate, dear. Annette, so well done and I'm so grateful for the inspiration and EDUCATION. Thank you and stay safe. Gentle hugs and respect, from Canada

[@AnnetteGreen]

Wow, Nancy, thank you SO much for your kindness. I'm so happy you found some helpful tips. I hope you're recuperating well and are able to get back to crafting soon.

Oh my goodness ...i don't know how I've missed this planner ...its absolutely gorgeous! Luv all your extra embellishments so much! They go so beautifully with your papers! I hope it's not to late to find those animal and mushroom rub ons ...and those beautiful green leaf braches ...all look so real! Great job on the tutorial and for all the little tips and tricks! Luv all your details! Hugs, Suzy Q

[@AnnetteGreen]

Thanks so much Susan! I'm so happy you enjoyed this planner. 49 & Market has such beautiful things and are always coming out with more and more. Watch your local scrapbook store soon. New rub-ons and collections are coming, if you can't find this collection anymore.

[@janeellen8842]

I'm so looking forward to putting my journal together. I'm adding an additional Gratitude page too. I love it all.

[@AnnetteGreen]

Oh Jane, I LOVE the idea of adding a gratitude page! I'm excited for you making your own journal also. Have a great time!

I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Joyce. Thank you so much.

[@sammielovell5226]

Hi Annette could you tell me what paper line you used and pad size 12x12 or 8x8 love your work and as a teacher you are outstanding thank you God Bless you and your family

[@AnnetteGreen]

Hi Sammie, thank you so much. All the information you're asking for is in the beginning of this video right around the 3:00 mark. I show everything.

[@cathyb2281]

Beautiful tfs

[@AnnetteGreen]

Thank you Cathy!

[@SeasonalCrafter]

Do you use the double sided paper as is or do you glue two sheets together to make the page very sturdy? Love your videos😍

[@AnnetteGreen]

I adhered the decorative paper to the printer paper pages, back to back.

[@trinastreasures]

I always enjoy your videos. Thank you.

[@AnnetteGreen]

How nice! Thank you. Thanks for watching.

[@carrieallen7216]

I love your book!! What die did you use for the pocket?

[@AnnetteGreen]

Thank you! I used the Planner Pocket 1 from Elizabeth Craft Designs.

[@ItsNewToYouYT]

New follower and I like your style. I LOVE 49 & Market products. They are pricey and I have yet to find cheaper comparable items. Does Elizabeth Craft offer a subscription box? I am looking for a beginners way of obtaining the items I need to start my planner.

[@AnnetteGreen]

Hi Cindy and welcome! I'm sorry I didn't see your comment sooner. 49 and Market makes beautiful stuff, no doubt! So just work within your budget with what you really love. We'd all love to have it all at once, but it does get costly quickly. Elizabeth Craft Designs doesn't have a subscription box but what a great idea! I have a video you may want to check out for beginners where I suggest my top 5, then top 10 dies for planner making. Here's the link to that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4jcao13bdmcrtk

[@janabolster9943]

Beautiful planner! When you glue your pages together, are you just gluing the pattern paper with the journal page ( and is the journal page just copy paper or something heavier)?

[@AnnetteGreen]

Thank you Jana. Yes, great question. I am gluing them together. I print my planner pages on 28 lb. inkjet printer paper. It’s a nice weight with very little show-through. I use a glue-stick to adhere them together, but that’s optional.

[@BadAssPaperlover]

What a great video Annette! It's so much fun to see you working and creating

[@AnnetteGreen]

Thanks Esther. I thoroughly enjoyed making it!

[@LisaS1517]

Hi Annette, love your planner and I would like to know at the 11:02 mark what paper you are using for your January page. I'm a huge mushroom fan and it doesn't look like it's in the Hike collection. Am I missing something? Just ordered my ECD dies today so I can start making my planners. Totally addicted now, lol. Thanks!!

[@AnnetteGreen]

Hi Lisa, yes that is also from the Hike More collection. If you pause it at the mark you gave me, you'll notice the mushroom and all the other elements are paper clipped to the page. Maybe that's what was throwing you off? They are from the laser cut images in the 12 x 12 collection. I show them around 3:10 in the video. Hope that helps!

[@LisaS1517]

@@AnnetteGreen Yes, thank you so much! Getting back into crafting and you have been the inspiration!! Grateful you share your talent with all of us. ❤️

[@bethrainbolt9642]

Do you have a video on how to use the kits to cut the pages. I want to order the dye kits but dont know what machine they work on. I really want all the little cute barn yard animals but again I dont know what else I need to go with them.

[@AnnetteGreen]

I don’t have a video specifically on that, but you’ve given me an idea for a future video. Sometimes I forget that there are beginners out there. For now, to address your question quickly, if you’re just beginning, I would recommend a Sizzix Big Shot machine. (Not the small sidekick). They supply the plates to cut on and give very good directions on how to use them. That’s what I started with.

[@janeellen8842]

Annette, what did you use for the background card for the calendar month? I have the pocket page finished - that was a challenge for me ;-)

[@AnnetteGreen]

Hi Jane, If you're asking about what I used to matte the small monthly calendars, I used some of the same papers from the collection. If that's not what you're asking, please let me know. Thanks.

[@janeellen8842]

@@AnnetteGreen Thanks, I'm done making the planner.. love it and I'm using the daily unlined pages for nice, short journaling and gratitude notes. Great fun. Now, can you please tell me how you store your stamps? I wish I could go to the retreat but at 86, my kids are unwilling to let me get too far without them (dang and grateful at the same time. Health is very good BTW. Thanks again.

[@AnnetteGreen]

@@janeellen8842 I totally understand your sweet family's concern about you not going far away. Where are you located by the way? I am happy to hear you made your planner and are enjoying it. If you'd like, you can see in one of my videos how I store all my stamps. Here's the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXmzgqWog8iWbJo

[@janeellen8842]

@@AnnetteGreen I live in East Dundee, IL - about 20 miles West of Chicago. Thank you for the link - I thought you might have already made a video about stamp storage. 🙂 I love watching you. You do such a wonderful job of instructing in a calm, unhurried manner. Thanks again and be well.

[@AnnetteGreen]

@@janeellen8842 You're very welcome Jane. Thank YOU so much for the kind words. Have a great day!

[@louiseluna7375]

Good Morning! I cannot find the rub ons for this collection. Can you suggest other rub ons from 49 & Market that might be available. Thank you! 💕

[@AnnetteGreen]

I'm so sorry Louise. They were very popular and I have looked all over for them for other people asking. I don't know everything that's out there in the world, so maybe it's best that you do a Google search of nature-related rub-ons or stickers. Sorry I can't be of more help. Thanks for watching!

[@AnnetteGreen]

And to follow up, other people are mentioning their “Into the Leaves” rub-on’s as an alternative.

[@janeellen8842]

I found them at a scrapbooking store in Australia ! the shipping is expensive though. If you want more info. let me know.

[@debraprins2036]

what glue stick have you found that adheres well? thanks

[@AnnetteGreen]

Good old Elmer's Extreme works well for me.
