Matching Planner and Mini Notebook

As we meander a Path of Positivity, we are talking about numbers this year! Of course, you can share anything positive you like, the theme is always optional.

Remember, you may share any sort of artistic medium over at PoP:  writing, cards, journals, scrapbooking, painting, sewing, baking, needle crafts, etc as long as it is positive.  The theme is always optional.  

This month we are inspired by the number 2 with an optional theme of Dynamic Duo!  The idea is to create 2 matching/coordinating projects that go together.  Be sure to visit Path of Positivity for a description of this!  

I was inspired to make an 8 1/2 inch x 11 inch planner for 2026 with a small notebook made out of scraps!  I used the leftover stickers, binding, and cardstock from my planner.

Check out the video below for more information.

My 2026 planner is off to the following challenges:
