Valentine Heart Basket

January 31, 2012 by Rebecca Wagner 5 Comments

Show of hands please.  How many of you participated in the Make the Cut Valentine basket challenge at the forum?  *raises hand* I did, I did!  Of course, I had to seeing as I had made the file for the challenge.  It would have been rude not too.  ^__^Actually, the forum members took my file and made the most wonderful little baskets I have ever seen.  When we make a file for any of the challenges, we keep them pretty plain so everyone can put their own spin on them.  And boy did they ever!  Great job everyone and also thanks to Cher at The Digi Bistro for sponsoring the prize.  You are awesome!

I went pretty simple with mine because I just haven’t felt like crafting with this stupid cold or flu, whatever it is.  I have just felt so drained of life.  Ugh.

Trust me, everyone else’s blew mine out of the water.  They put scallops and hearts with pretty flowers.  I just put an eyelet on each side of the handle to, hopefully, give it more strength.

I just cut out this tag from one of my paper packs.  Some of the designs are too big for card making but are so cute that I have to use them in a project.  This basket was perfect for that.

Why the number 17?  Don’t know, ask Recollections.  It was at the bottom of the 12×12 sheet so I thought I would slap that on there too.  LOL  We will be having another challenge coming soon, so stay tuned for details.  Thanks for stopping by, don’t forget I love comments!

Supplies:

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?

or
Lines (right side)

Tell me in the comments — Graph or Lines?
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. 💕
