Inside my Planner for May 💫 The Anti-Theme Turned TTPD

[@julia-here]

hey there! thanks for watching 💕✨ - let me know what you think of this video format; i need help with stamps 🤭; andddd let’s talk TTPD! My current favorites are “Down Bad,” “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?,” “The Bolter,” and ooOOoo “Fortnight”... "The Prophecy"... ok, I'm done ✅

I like this format. No theme doesn’t scare me but I do like that it can give me a starting point/ideas. I should probably do a pick an item in my stash and decorate around that “theme”. So much stationery!

[@julia-here]

Thanks Haley!! Yes, I love that way of thinking - stationery > starting pages > have fun from there! 🤌🏽✨

“the ghosting was deplorable” haha love that ❤

[@julia-here]

I giggled at that too when editing.. the stuff that comes out of my mouth while filming sometimes is really unhinged 😅💕

Actually, there’s two issues with the stamping. Pushing too hard on the ink pad is one thing, it’s better to just tap kind of kiss kiss kiss it. If you just check your stamp, you’ll see if the impression has been inked enough. And if you’re using regular stamped ink, you can just take a wet paper towel and take off any ink that got on the edges of your stamp. The second thing is your planner is getting a little squishy, when you push down on the page there’s too much give behind it and the sides of the pages are coming up around your stamp. If you just put maybe a pencil board or something, a little firmer a couple pages behind, it should be OK. Good luck.!!

Thank you so much! I hadn’t even thought of putting a pencil board behind where I’m stamping; I think that’ll be super helpful. And yes! I will go with the kiss kiss kiss style (love that) next time because I’m currently forcibly pressing 👌🏽- appreciate your help a ton!

Hey Julia! I prefer long-form videos, but I totally get that sometimes it doesn't work for you. I think just a flip through video would work too. I just like seeing how everything comes together.

[@julia-here]

Thanks for the input Rae! Super appreciate it and of course appreciate youuu ✨! I like doing the videos in this format I think; I’m just not about to care about the numbers of it all anymore (because my bujo/planner videos just aren’t doing as well as far as the KZbin monster goes anymore) and just do what I love to do haha. 💕

Flip through format is good for me. I don't usually watch Shorts and Reels, do you do after the pen flip throughs on regular videos? It is interesting to see what people set up vs. what actually gets used.

[@julia-here]

Hey! Thank you so much for your input. I definitely do a flip-through at the end of the year/when my planner or journal is full! Some of my favorites to do and see myself 😊✨

On the stamp outlines: you're pushing too hard when you're inking it so the stamp block is getting inked in addition to the design itself. Try going lighter ☺️

[@julia-here]

Thank you so much! I do have a tendency to push and push and push some more - totally makes sense 💕
