Journalling Tags for Project Life or Scrapbooking

Journalling is such an important aspect of any memory keeping.  Whether I am doing a Project Life spread or a scrapbook page, I always write something about the photo.  At times, I will need to have a journalling tag to write on as I won't want to write on a photo, I won't have room or I use it as an embellishment.

I have created some downloadable tags, in a variety of colours, to use with my photos.  These are print and cut files - PNG, PDF, SVG and SIL files. You can purchase a bundle of 10 mixed colour sheets from my Etsy shop, or buy individually. Each one has a free Silhouette file attached with your purchase.

Below is a free download PDF sheet for you to use - I hope you will enjoy using these tags and be sure to check out the others in the store!

Getting ready for Mr Elf to arrive - Free Elf Printables attached!

When I started this tradition 3 years ago, little did I think that it would become such a time of delight and anticipation in our house. And it has also become a strategic time when planning is vital to ensure that there are few last minute panics when you realise, just before going to bed (or even after getting into bed) that your Elf has not moved! And yes, it happened to me on more than a few occasions in the first two years.

Elf antics are meant to be fun and stressless. It is about the morning search and the excitement and amusement at the elves tricks. We now have two elves visit our home - Mr Elf and Evelyn Elf.  Last year I decided to pre-plan the Elves antics, listing each night's adventures. - and even though I did not stick to it religiously, as life gets in the way, I was prepared for last minute changes and the stress was minimal.

This year I have developed an Elf Planner to use. Rather than keep it myself, please enjoy it planning  your Elf antics.

Christmas Printables

Lime Juice Studio specialises in downloadable digital, print and cut products. All products are sold with PDF, PNG and SVG files.

These can be used with Silhouette Studio, Cricut and Brother ScanNCut machines. If you don't own any of these, you can hand cut the designs.  I have tried to keep any circular designs to 1" so that they can be cut with a 1" circle punch.

I will regularly add free print and cut files so come back regularly to see what is on offer.

In the meantime, check out my Lime Juice Studio Shop on Etsy.

Here are some of the Christmas products I have in the shop right now

New site, new look, new beginning

It was getting too difficult with my original blog - My {Creating} Place - as I couldn't log in to make some new posts. I decided that it was a message for me to start afresh, so here it is.

I am in the beginning stages of making sure this blog is informative, my projects are updated, I'm linked to my other social media, keeps up to date with my Esty store products - Lime Juice Studio - and that I am able to provide readers with special giveaways regularly.

So stay tuned for a lot more coming to you very soon.
