Butterflies for Mother’s Day

April 16, 2012 by Rebecca Wagner 2 Comments

Can you guess what I bought and finally got around to using?  Yep, that’s right, a Sew Easy.  Want to know what the neatest thing about it is?  It works will Trendy Twine.  Ya buddy!  I won’t even go into how much of the wonderous cottony stuff I have but I could probably sew back and forth from here to Montana three times.  LOLAnyhoo, I am so excited to share with you today some die-cutting treasures for my Boss Kut Design Team project.  I have a super simple but beautiful Mother’s Day card.  It’s never too early to start on those cards, ladies.  Mother’s Day will be here before you know it!  I will be posting a few more up to the day because I have been asked by some friends to make one for their mothers.    Here’s a tip if you want a life, tell very few people you craft.  ^__^

I finally got around to using the adorable Pop Kuts from Boss Kut too.  Let me say, I am thrilled at how great they look!   There is just that certain something they add to a project.  I mean, look at the flower.  Just too stinkin’ adorable!

I used the Pop Kut Butterfly which comes two to the set and the Pop Kut Lacy Flower layered onto the Flower Flourish.    I sewed together two pieces of Lost & Found Madison Avenue by My Mind’s Eye with Trendy Twine using the Sew Easy.

My Gazelle cut everything like a hot knife through butter.  She can really handle all the details even when they are very small.  Love this machine!  Monica and Boss Kut have some pretty intricate designs that I know I wouldn’t be able to cut if my cutter wasn’t so awesome.  😉

I used the leftover hearts from the border to place by the sentiment which is from the Mini Thoughts set.  So, what do you think?  Will my mother enjoy this card?  I think so.  Those butterflies are the cutest thing!

    Ooh this is so pretty! I really like the stitching, butterflies and flower. Very nice. I know the feeling about creating for others. But, the money is nice. LOL

Nothing ruins a perfectly good month like… bills Nothing ruins a perfectly good month like… bills.

Good news: when everything’s written down, at least the chaos is organized.

Pay it. Check it off. Pretend you’re thriving.

Personal Size planners get a bad rap for one reaso Personal Size planners get a bad rap for one reason…

They’re narrow.

And I get it.
Personal is the perfect middle ground. Bigger than Pocket, fits in your purse, but way more portable than A5.

But the width?
That’s always been the complaint.

Lately I’ve been seeing people try to squeeze Personal Wide into standard Personal binders… and then wonder why the pages stick out.

So instead of making it wider… I went the other direction.

Foldouts.

For 2026, I reworked the layout to give you more planning space without changing the footprint.

Month on one page
Straight into your weekly
Dashboard space (because you know I had to keep that)
And when it’s folded?
Standard Personal Size. Fits your binder like it should.

Now I need your opinion before I finalize this…

What works better in vertical boxes?

Who else misses Micro planners? I found this under Who else misses Micro planners? I found this under a stack of papers. Don’t know how long it’s been chillin under there but I’m going to start using it. Great for quick notes and things you need to dump but don’t need long term.
Field research, planner style. Since the Coach no Field research, planner style.

Since the Coach notebooks are sold out, I grabbed this leather cover on Amazon to test the fit.
Good news: it fits beautifully (and it’s roomy enough for tabs).

Bad news?
I got excited and didn’t read the whole listing.

No snap.
No elastic.
Just vibes.

Luckily I’ve got elastic on hand… but consider this your reminder from someone who learned the hard way:

Read the full listing, friends.

Sometimes the best combinations aren’t planned… they just happen.

The Aquarelle Sky cover paired with Candy Rush tabs turned out to be one of those moments. The colors line up so perfectly, it looks like they were made for each other.

Just a little unexpected color magic.
Every tab is placed by hand. Nothing here is auto Every tab is placed by hand.

Nothing here is automated. We print, cut, laminate, punch, and assemble every order ourselves.

When you shop with us, two real humans have touched every single piece.

Does anyone else suddenly become a pink-and-purple Does anyone else suddenly become a pink-and-purple person in February…
or is it just me?

I don’t even fight it anymore.
February = soft colors, cozy plans, and a planner that matches the mood. 💕
