Love this video. I had a hard time picking a favorite. I saw some that you didn't choose that just loved. So...my favorite is the December 2019 snow scene. I sat here looking closely at it again. It draws you in. I feel like I'm part of the scene. I can hear the snow crunch as the skiers go over it. I know there are people inside the cabins sitting by the fire place drinking coffee and hot chocolate enjoying each others company and the fire. I think I was one of those that did my own version of it. I'm always in awe of your sense of design. 😊💕
Totally amazing! They are so beautiful! I love how you combined colors that I would never think o f. Love the coffee layout .TY again for sharing your videos with us❤❤😊😊
Oh my.... your first spread was gorgeous!!! I think your "busy" style is superb without looking clumsy. (mine) My favorite has to be the one you sent into HP app...the one the gal asked to use. Teal is beautiful, also. Between the two for me. Can you tell me how long you'd been doing planning when you came up with those? You're definitely in my top three planners to learn from!!♡♡♡
So hard to choose a top favorite because your spreads are all so different just so inspiring and good. But if I HAD to pick, I think I like the second one you chose from 2018, with the rainbow colors. It's bright and colorful and so pleasing to the eye. Also love your doodles!
Gonna need a full flip through for the rest of 2019, I glimpsed some 🌸beautiful🌼 spreads that didn’t make your top 15. Will watch your posted flip thrus ❤️
Hi Mary Ellen. All your spreads are creative and inspirational. My favorite of your Top 15 is June 3rd spread with the split orange plumeria flowers with everything else black. Honorable Mention goes to Sept 2nd with the torn scrapbook paper with the birds.
Thanks for this video. My faves are, 1, the rainbow, 2, Nat'l Coffee Week, and June 2019 with non-Happy Planner stickers( coffee cups and flowers. I get a kick out the into and seeing Wallace walking on your planner, and Bumble spinning in the chair. too funny! :)
I love that last one. I think that is the first spread of yours I ever watched. I had just started planning at the end of November and I had no idea what I was doing. The first ever planner UA-cam video I watched was yours titled something like -- How to use your planner if you're not that busy. You flipped to a lot of your pages that you filled up with all sorts of fun stuff and it really inspired me and I wanted to see what I could do with that inspiration. I haven't copied any of your spreads, but I definitely watch them and feel creative afterwards. Thanks for your videos, you are so relateable and easy to listen to.
I think my favorite is the one with a different color in each day and the doodle flowers you did....I love it a lot....You truly are so creative and I really like all your spreads.
You are so talented and creative. I am new planning and although I sew and crochet, I am usually following a pattern (although not always), but I am just not creative on paper. I may be trying to copy your spreads or at least follow some of your same pattern and thoughts. Thank you for sharing. I love your doodle of the day and again - those spreads - all of them. I think your worst would out shine my best. 😊
Hi Mary Ellen. They are all wonderful, but I choose the first spread. I love what I call “house art”. All your hand drawn houses make me happy! Honorable mention goes to the European flavored spread and all the pink and black spreads. 😀💕
Hi Mary Ellen. Thank you so much for sharing your favorite spreads. I really enjoyed watching them and listening to your description of how you created them. I also enjoy watching the current videos that you post. Again thank you for sharing your planning style. They really give me so much inspiration 😊.
The coffee one in 2018 is my absolute favorite!! But the house one in the very first spread is a very close second! My third favorite is the last one with the snowy background.. all so very different but pleasing to the eye and I think they are still functional.
I haven't been following you for very long, and I'm very new to your channel, so I didn't know about your husband. I just wanted to offer my condolences. I know this video is old, but I'm sure you still think about him everyday. I'm very sorry for your loss
I've lost count of how many times I've watched the flip through of your 2018 planner for inspiration. Great choices. I also liked your road trip spread and the 2 squad girls spreads from that year. In your 2019, I also liked the Spring Squad girls and Deck the halls spreads. My overall favourite is probably the skiing squad girls which is the only spread of yours I have ever copied as I loved it so much. You can't go wrong with the squad girls, I hope Happy planner bring out another sticker book for them this year!
I really loved the week of June 3rd to June 9th. I loved the florals to add colour with the black and white everywhere else, the fact you did them on different rows and because that was my Tommy’s birthday week just made it even better! Thank you for sharing this!
This is my first video, and OMG! You are so talented! My favorite was week of June 24 and I recognized the creamery! We are neighbors so if you ever teach a planner class, I’m in. (Chesco girl also) I’m gonna have to binge watch before classes start back up!
I love them all! But the one with the little houses are my favorites! You are so creative and very “inspirante”. Sorry, for my english, first language is french! Thank you for sharing!!!!🥰
So hard to choose a fav, they were all cute! As a beginner, do you have a video where you show your early spreads that you didn’t care for? Also I’m glad I checked this video out because you often use several quote like stickers and I find myself paranoid about doing that.
I don't know if you remember me or not we've talked a few times on here and on Instagram I live in Pittsburgh I was watching your video and didn't know that your husband had recently passed my husband passed March 29th of 2019 planning in my planner friends are one of the only things that have gotten me through. I am still in a very dark place but nice to know that someone else knows what I'm going through and that I'm not alone Thank you so much for that.
Niki Plans A Happy Life I’m so sorry for your loss. Planning has helped me get through as well. I think it’s so cathartic to have a creative outlet for your grief. Keep moving forward!
My favorite was the one that you did the chalkboard style... I want to try something similar... how did you do the large black boxes? Is it card stock or a different paper? When I try it I will definitely make sure to give you the credit for the inspiration... Xx
I love your videos!! I have learned a lot!! I just started my planner but it’s very complicated trying to add every single task for the day specially because I am combining work with personal. Do you recommend a special planner for an extreme busy person? Thank you!
I do! That’s the point of a planner. That being said sometimes if I’m extremely busy I revert to brain dump lists. But even if you just get the basics down in your planner it’ll help you!
Its a toss up between rainbow and houses made from washi. Is that spread on you tube? I would love to see you do another page like this on your You Tube Channel.
In one of your videos you mentioned a website that you can look up a sticker and see what book it is in. Can you tell me what website? I can’t find the video you mentioned it in to see if you posted a link.
No way can I pick just one. I took your advice on your video about where to get inspo by starting a list. Some of the things I have jotted down came from the spreads you picked for this video. Some came from the in between weeks you gave a quick glimpse of while flipping through.
Just a thought. Don't overwhelm yourself. Start with a smaller planner, one page. Just a single page. Order some stickers online and just do one page. I'm not taking it for granted or assuming it will completely change your way of thinking, but then again it may. Take a chance. Try and find that beauty in yourself that you will see coming out on the page. I'm nowhere near as talented as I'd like to be. Heck, this year, 2020 is my very first planner ever. And I'm addicted! And if I never reach the talent I envision being someday, so what!? I'm enjoying decorating my planner. And I was totally and unexpectedly pleasantly surprised how much it's helped my depression. There's just something about the shiny, happy colors...the fun whimsical stickers that make me smile. Again, just a thought. I wish for you as much joy as I get when I play around in my new "adult toy book." 😍😍😍
@leeleescraps Would love to see you give it a go. You are worth it to give it a go if it's something you want to do. Use it more as a journal and not to plan as such. I'm sure it will help you. 🙂
You can do more of a bullet journal as well, and have lists of things like movies to watch, books to read, favorite memories, etc, that way you dont have the stress of a day-to-day planner. And of course, get stickers. :)
My favorite of the 15 is from 2018. With the vertical washi and the bathing suits. It inspired a spread I did in 2019 around Christmas time.
How you limited it to only 15 must have been difficult. I can honestly say I’ve enjoyed all of your spreads. Thanks for sharing!🌻
Love this video. I had a hard time picking a favorite. I saw some that you didn't choose that just loved. So...my favorite is the December 2019 snow scene. I sat here looking closely at it again.

You're definitely in my top three planners to learn from!!♡♡♡
It's like trying to choose your favorite child. LOL
I loved so many of your spreads for different reasons, but I loved them ALL for the creativity. 🥰
So hard to choose a top favorite because your spreads are all so different just so inspiring and good. But if I HAD to pick, I think I like the second one you chose from 2018, with the rainbow colors. It's bright and colorful and so pleasing to the eye. Also love your doodles!
My two favourites would have to be the winter snow one and the coffee week one ♡♡♡
Love your flower drawings! They look amazing!!
Gonna need a full flip through for the rest of 2019, I glimpsed some 🌸beautiful🌼 spreads that didn’t make your top 15. Will watch your posted flip thrus ❤️
She has one posted. It's really fun. Her daughter Ally looks at them with her.
Kiki Vee thank you, I found a diff video with full 2019 flip thru 2 weeks ago
I’m a new planner and seeing these layouts are soooo helpful! It gives me an idea of what to do with all these stickers I bought! 😊

All are beautiful! Favorite: snow, first rainbow and chalkboard.
SO much to love about ALL of these spreads!
Also, I hear you about balancing things! To me, it’s just more satisfying. 😊
I liked your coffee spreading fr 2018 I think it was so cute I might try to copy it it is so cute I love coffee too
Wow! The very last one with the ski scene is my fav! But all are so pretty😍🥰
Fantastic! The one with black columns is when I “found” you! I saw many spreads not in the top 15 that are also beautiful!!!
You are so talented and creative. I am new planning and although I sew and crochet, I am usually following a pattern (although not always), but I am just not creative on paper.

I also enjoy watching the current videos that you post. Again thank you for sharing your planning style. They really give me so much inspiration 😊.
It would be hard to choose a favorite. I loved them all, even the ones I could see as you flipped pages.
I like them all. My favorite one is the June spread. lve the flowers and setup.
The coffee one in 2018 is my absolute favorite!! But the house one in the very first spread is a very close second! My third favorite is the last one with the snowy background.. all so very different but pleasing to the eye and I think they are still functional.
The buildings, WDC (I live in the burbs) and the snow. I also like the chalkboard spread. I am a black and white fan.
I don't think I could pick a favorite, love them all! You are so creative and have such a gift!
I haven't been following you for very long, and I'm very new to your channel, so I didn't know about your husband. I just wanted to offer my condolences. I know this video is old, but I'm sure you still think about him everyday. I'm very sorry for your loss

Julie Smith I hope so too!
The color issue reminds me of advice from the show What Not to Wear that was on ?years ago.
It doesn’t have to match, but it has to go. 😊
I love all your spreads! I think my favorites are the bathing suits, the coffee, and the winter scene!
My favorite is the last one!
Love that you shared why you chose each spread!
Absolutely love your Jul-18 spread!
They are all so beautiful!!❤️. Thank you for the inspiration!
I really loved the week of June 3rd to June 9th. I loved the florals to add colour with the black and white everywhere else, the fact you did them on different rows and because that was my Tommy’s birthday week just made it even better! Thank you for sharing this!
Purple and orange are my favorite together.
Too hard to pick a favorite. Love the doodles🍿
It is so so so hard to pick a favourite. But if I have to choose I would say the coffee spread. It speaks to me as I am a terrible coffee addict. 😊
me too!!
This is my first video, and OMG! You are so talented! My favorite was week of June 24 and I recognized the creamery! We are neighbors so if you ever teach a planner class, I’m in. (Chesco girl also) I’m gonna have to binge watch before classes start back up!
They are ALL sooooooo beautyfull. 😍 I wish I could create the same wonderfull pages. 😭😂😊
They are all so beautiful! I really liked the coffee spread!
Everything was very lovely! So much inspiration and ideas.
I love them all! But the one with the little houses are my favorites! You are so creative and very “inspirante”. Sorry, for my english, first language is french! Thank you for sharing!!!!🥰
So hard to choose a fav, they were all cute!
As a beginner, do you have a video where you show your early spreads that you didn’t care for?
Also I’m glad I checked this video out because you often use several quote like stickers and I find myself paranoid about doing that.
I can't pick. lol All your spreads are always amazing!
Great work !!!!
Amazing what talent ❤️👑🐝
Beautiful wish I could write and draw like you. My handwriting ruins it for me sometimes lol 😆
You picked some of my favorites! 💜
Amazing!! ❤️
I love them all! It’s difficult to pick one!

WOW!!

Thank you!!!!!
Can I pay you to flip thru all your planners??! I love every one you do.
No way can I pick just one. I took your advice on your video about where to get inspo by starting a list. Some of the things I have jotted down came from the spreads you picked for this video. Some came from the in between weeks you gave a quick glimpse of while flipping through.
I want to do this but I have no life, suffer from anxiety, don’t work anymore & rarely leave the house unless it’s for the gym or groceries.
leeleescraps you can plan the things you do around the house or turn it into a journal 😊
Just a thought. Don't overwhelm yourself. Start with a smaller planner, one page. Just a single page. Order some stickers online and just do one page. I'm not taking it for granted or assuming it will completely change your way of thinking, but then again it may. Take a chance.

leeleescraps you can still plan!!! Check out this video on what to put in your planner when you’re not busy:

And of course, get stickers. :)
Very sorry to hear about your husband.
Mannn, you are skipping over some beautiful spreads. Please go through them all. 2018 and 2019 lol
Nigeria McDaniels If you type in Planning with Bumble 2018 flip through or 2019 flip through you can see both of those!!
@@PlanningwithBumble ok. Thank you
