I've decided to use Dodopad this year. I love the grid design and paper quality is the best I've used. However, I'm not a big fan of some of the graphics. Anyway, I'll try and do my best to pretty-fy!
So here's my FF week one.

Filofax Week #1
As I mentioned in my previous post, I will be posting my Filofax week in 2013. Angela from Paper Love Story (whom I got the idea from) is doing a Filofax week collaboration within the blogger world. I can peek into everyone else's week...can't wait!

Happy gift
Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!
Today I wanted to show you all a gift I received from my brother and his wifey. It's a Kikki K stationery set. The set includes a note pad, envelopes, stamp, pencil, stickers and of course the carry case. There was also a box of cute pens in addition to the set. I'm sure that this is from Kikki K's "Hapiness" collection. It sure does make me smile.
I'll be doing a weekly post of my FF week page in the new year. I know a lot of bloggers have this weekly feature and I love the idea so will be copying. To those bloggers who are already doing this please don't hate, imitation is a form of flattery!
I'm using Dodo Pad refills next year which is all very new to me. I'm not sure about some of the art work on the Dodo Pad...might need to make them prettier.
Anyway, have a great NYE everyone. Stay safe and I'll see you all in 2013.

Stationery purchase
I'm not sure about you but I love looking through brochures that come through the mail. It's "window shopping" without the need to leave your couch.
I'm sure most of you are familiar with Aldi and their weekly specials right? Anyway - this week they had Aldi branded gel metallic and glitter pens for sale. Ten pens in each packet for $1.49. What a bargain!
I bought a packet each - as you do when things are on sale - even if the colours were similar. Below is a picture of how the pens write, which I tested in my Filofax planner.
The metallic wrote well and looked lovely on paper. The glitter pens weren't so "glittery". You needed to look very closely to even see any hint of glitter. But for that price it doesn't really matter...to me anyway. Also, if you're wondering, I am currently using medium diary refills from Kikki K in cream.
Below is a picture of all the colours mixed up. I've also placed them in my Minnie Mouse mug - agift from a friend who has recently returned from their trip to Disneyland.
Have you ever found an stationery bargains at Aldi?
