MY EXPERIENCE AT START FRESH EVENT AND LAYOUT "CREATE WITH INTENTION"


As you know, I'm a member of Simple Scrapper Community and I really like all the resources and great support and motivation Jennifer offers every month.

BEING PART OF A COMMUNITY HELPS US 
BE FOCUSED ON WHAT MATTERS.

Every year, she gives members Start Fresh Workbook and host an event to get us started. It is such a great tool to have our ideas, plans and projects all in one place. It's not my first workbook as I had downloaded and used the 2014 version, however it is the first time I participated in the event and I think it helped me get organized and ready to start my creative journey in 2015.



HOW IT WORKS

It was a 5 days event with instructions and tips on how to use the workbook and get prepared to make a layout about your relation to scrapbooking. I could follow 2 days of the event and then real life required me. I could manage to finish it some weeks later and I am glad I did.

My workbook is filled with all the information I need to get started. I feel so good about having all my plans and ideas in one place, easy to access and to stick to. I now have some habits to build.

Ther workbook has sections and covers pretty much everything you need to put your plans in action: lessons learned, desires for your creative journey during this year, monthly spreadsheets and lists, project and page planners, seasonal planners. I'll share more about how I'm using it in the future. As I said, it's my first time and I'm experimenting.


THE INSPIRATION FOR THE LAYOUT

I have been reading blogs and listening to podcasts related to living with intention and doing what you love, finding your mission and following your desires. Lots of good advices have been nurturing my days and supporting me in this time of change.

Jess Lively talks about living with intention. She's a life coach and is always trying to inspire us to listen to our intuition and find our values to live a value-based life. I love her approach and I've been practicing some of her exercises.

With this in mind, I made my layout based on the idea of intention. I want to make my scrapbooking pages, albums and projects not only for the creative outlet or relaxation, but also with the intention of being more present, to get in real.
