How to use stickers in your Retro Chic planner !

Hello everyone,
This is Hussena here and today I am sharing with you all the different accessories and stickers that you get with the Papericious Retro Chic planner and how to use them.

First let's have a look at what you get along with the Retro chic planner :
As you can see above, you get 3 sticker sheets and one journal tabs/tags sheet with your planner. 

Here's a closer look at all the 3 sticker sheets when taken out of their packaging :
The sheet on the left hand side is the icons and tabs sheet. It contains various stickers for your day to day use and I will be showing you how I have used them in my below pictures. The sheet in the middle is a clear sticker sheet with some fun sentiments and images and when you stick them on paper they seem almost like stamped images.
The third and the last sheet on the right hand side is the hole-guard sheet and it helps to reinforce your planner pages. See the picture below to get an idea on how it's used :

The brown circle you see below the binder rings are the hole-guards.

Now moving on to how to use the Icon and tabs stickers in your planner. Here's how I have used them in mine :

This is the monthly spread page and the dollar icon on the first represents the due payments that I have to make on the first of the month. The telephone icon against my mom's doctor appointment is self explanatory..Also notice that I have highlighted certain dates by using colored round stickers. These were actually punched from a colored cardstock. I have also done some stamping to highlight certain important dates.

This is my first week spread for the month of February. Here I have used a couple of stickers, washi tapes and stamping to make my page more colorful.

As you can see, I have used the 'Pay Day' icon sticker for the first of the month when I supposedly get my salary :)...You can use this on any date on which your payday falls though. The blue 'To do' sticker along with the horizontal 'heart checklist' sticker  is to note down the tasks for the given day or even the tasks you have to do in the particular week.

There are small 'Happy birthday' banner stickers included in the icon sheets to help you highlight the birthdays you want to remember of your family or friends.

The Weekend highlighter sticker.

The shopping cart icon sticker.

This is the second week of Feburary page and I have highlighted the Valentines' day with a quote taken from our If Only collection.

I have used the transparent stickers on the dotted washi to highlight the important task I had to do before V-day.

The Instagram icon.

The dinner icon and the 'To buy' tab.

And lastly, the blog challenge page and I have embellished it with a few die cuts from our Infinity collection and Golden Garden collection.

Hope you find this info useful for using the stickers in the Retro Chic Planner. If you have any questions regarding any of the icons stickers, do let me know in the comments and I will get back to you ASAP.

Thank you so much for joining me today and have a nice day everyone :)

How to use stickers in Planner

Hi! I'm Halak and today I'm going to be talking about one of the accessories that come with the Papericious Planners, the stickers!

With the Color Splash planner kit, you get 5 sticker sheets.

Out of the 5 sheets, 4 sheets are co-ordinating set of icons, tags etc. that beautifully match the planner colors.

The 5th sheet is a sheet consisting of fun words in different fonts that enable the planner user to add a special touch to happy occasions.

You can view the co-ordinating sheets above and here's a picture of the 5th sticker sheet :

Okay, so the next question... what do I do with these stickers? Do I need anything more before I sit to start jotting down stuff in my planner?

To be honest, apart from the stickers in the Papericious Planner Kit, you don't really need to purchase additional stickers.

All I did was dug up some colorful stickers, washi tape, some colorful plastic tags and ribbon from my stash.

I did purchase the pen though, just bought one that has 7 colorful refills in it.

Check it out :

So with all the materials I needed to jazz up my planner, I sat down to do some planning.

Here's the first page :

Oh yeah, lol... read up the deets of my life, you know you want to!

But on a serious note, notice the small birthday present sticker when I wrote down about birthdays, and similarly, the checklist sticker when I was talking about stuff I want to learn or be better at!
(Also put down a shopping cart sticker for the part where I put down what I wanted to purchase.)

Here is an Icon sticker break-up for better understanding :

I will also be showing you how I planned this ongoing week in my planner where you can see how stickers are used but before that, let's check out some top tips.

Top Tips for Planners :

1. Don't go crazy purchasing stickers, an additional pack or two is okay, but really, the Papericious Planner kit has all the stickers you will need.

2. Try not to over-embellish your planner pages, the aim is to decorate it lightly so that checking out the things-to-do does not seem plain and boring.

3. If you purchase stickers, do not opt for thick chunky ones. Remember, when it comes to planners, less is more, so the flatter the stickers, the better.

4. Papericious stickers are of excellent quality, have good adhesive, bond well with paper and are easily removable from the backing sheet, however the local stickers I purchased did not have good adhesive.

So, if you purchase stickers locally which are of no-so-good quality, use a little glue on them before you stick them down. That way they will stay put.

Here's my current week, you can see how I used stickers here and get an idea. I like to plan on sunday for the entire week and keep ticking off items as I finish them but really, it's upto you on how you use your planner as long as it helps you keep a track of things!

I hope this post was informative and helped you gain a little insight and information with respect to the stickers and their usage in planners!

Till next time dear friends! *Hugs*
