In the planner community on Instagram, there's been a new challenge that has us all interested. If you like lists, and are on Instagram as well, search #listersgottalist hosted by @theresetgirl for more info.

I decided to use a journal kit from the shop {there's a giveaway here, you get your choice of one of five designs} just to make it easier on me as I still have taxes to finish up like yesterday. I embellished the tag a little bit but that's it. Oh, and all those goodies you see, except for the pens, come in a goody bag for you to decorate your pages inside!

I won't be doing all the lists, but here are the challenges I've done so far.

Favorite Songs of All Time
Wow, who can remember them all when put on the spot. I can guess that I'll be adding to this list as I remember more. Aren't those library cards just the cutest? I use them all the time in my mini books and on layouts...they just seem to work so well with lists.

I didn't include all the fish we've had and somehow I forgot to add Himmel, our cutie pie Beagle | German Shepherd mix. We were a military family and our father promised that we could finally have a pet when he retired, and he kept his promise. 

See that key? I'm working on a new item for the shop that will include it!

In an effort to use up all my incomplete sets of letter stickers, this is what I came up for this list. I even had to use the negative of the letter "s" to make it work. I love tucking stuff inside glassine bags: lists, sand, ephemera, menu's...and love notes.

The yellow ticket stubs come in the embellishment pack with the journal and seemed the perfect way to have something to grab onto to pull the list out of the bag. And then I incorporated one of my favorite journaling and title techniques, using off cuts as banner shapes by cutting into them. Here, I used my tiny attacher to staple them onto my journaling card which was a gift from a friend.

I'm a huge fan of quotes. And paper doilies. And washi tape. And lists apparently. That little white mini tag {comes with a string} is in the embellishment kit, but you can find more sizes here.

I save negatives of punch cuts and this one just seemed to work so well here for the blank space. Because this journal doesn't 30 full pages to journal for a monthly challenge, I am utilizing the back sides of pages. Here, I added a journaling card and chipboard element from My Mind's Eye, more random stickers and just punched my card and added it to my journal using this tutorial.
