Sweet Life Planner Inserts

Happy Saturday everyone!  I wanted to share my current week on the new Sweet Life line!  I fell in love with this entire line as soon as I saw the macarons!  


This was the last week of Summer break for my kids and we had a lot to do!  Although these inserts are daily inserts, I decided to use two sheets to keep all my to do's, schedule and notes for the week, all in one place. 

I found this to be the perfect format not only for a busy week like mine, but also for planning a special event, like a birthday party or an upcoming project.  There's plenty of space and various boxes to keep all of your info and planning on a two page spread


I used both of Marion's planner stamp sets on my layout.  There's so many icons to choose from, it's all you really need to create your layout.  Thanks for looking and have a great weekend!

A Sweet Week in my Heart of Gold Planner

Happy Monday everyone!  Theresa here from the Creative Planner team.   This last few week I've seen a lot of sweet treats pop up on Marion's Instagram and YouTube accounts and I couldn't help but make last week's layout in my Heart of Gold Planner a sweets theme!


I decorated my pages with some fun, cute and bright donut stickers!  


I also added some sweet charms to my planner.  The macaroons and donut were made from Marion's polymer clay tutorials.  If you haven't seen them yet, go watch her tutorials!


I tracked my workouts and water intake on the bottom of this page, I love this little tracker!  Have a great week everyone!

Fitness and Food Tracking in My Planner

I recently made the commitment to create a healthier lifestyle for myself.  Using the monthly and daily layouts in my heart of gold planner are the perfect way to track my workouts as well as my daily food intake.  I'm doing the Insanity workout program, so I used the monthly layout to track which workouts I needed to do each day.  I made a key in the notes section on the left side and stamped color coded circles for each day that I was doing a workout.


I am using the daily sheets to track a variety of things.  In the largest box, I stamped 8 circles to check off how many glasses of water I'm drinking a day.  It's also a great place for inspirational quotes.  In the box to the left of that, I wrote of what my workout was for the day and other notes.  


In the Morning, Afternoon and Evening boxes, I am keeping track of what I eat during the day.  I find that I'm more conscious of what I'm putting in my body if I have to write everything down.  


In the bottom right box, I'll be making notes about my progress or how I felt that day.  


Maybe keeping tracking of your daily exercise and food intake in your planner will help you on your road to a healthier lifestyle!

Araceli from the Creative Planner Team

Hello! This is my first time posting on Marion's Blog. My name is Araceli Espindola. I am also known as Ara on Instagram. I have been using planners since the 90's. Today I am here to show you what I use the heart of Gold Planner. I use the weekly inserts for all things home related. What I love about these inserts is that there is so much room to decorate and jot things down. My handwriting is pretty big (you probably can't tell in this pic, but trust me it is,lol). I also love that the inserts have a shabby chic feel to them (gotta love that).

Here is a closer look at the left side of week 26. I used the Marion Smith Designs Planner Stamps which can be purchased here.

I love that this planner not only has pockets in the front but also in the back. I like to add pretty things to my front pockets. 

On the next blog post I will be showing you how I use the Daily inserts. Until Next time.

Theresa from the Creative Planner Team

Happy Saturday!   My name is Theresa Doan.  Some of you may know me as @mydocumentedlife on Instagram.   For as long as I can remember, I've always used some type of a paper planner, keeping it simple and just jotting important dates down.  It wasn't until this year that I started creative planning.  But as a mother of 3, I may not always have the time to do as much decorating in my planner as I would love.   One of my favorite things about all of Marion's planner pages is that they are so beautifully designed.  There's already so much color and a gorgeous floral print, that even when I need to keep it simple, my pages look so pretty!



I love the pastel colors on the weekly pages.  The non dated pages allow you to setup the week however it may work for you.  Although most people use Monday through Sunday, but this gives you the freedom to use any format.



I used Marion's silver date seals to mark each new appointment or tasks and used a few cute panda stickers.



On my next blog post, I'll be sharing how I use the daily pages as an exercise and meal tracker!
