desk layout, monthly planner stickers

Hello peeps! So, the day has finally arrived….Happy Halloween! Today, I am releasing next month’s ( November) planner stickers layout for the monthly spread of the Classic Happy Planner. I’m still tweaking the layout but I think I have designed enough stickers to “put some lovely on your planner”! This planner stickers theme is filled with classic pumpkin images and of course my fav neutrals, black and white. Hope you like it.

These planner stickers are specifically designed for fans of the Classic Happy Planner by Mambi or similar Week At A Glance Planners or other weekly planners such as the Plum Paper Planner that have larger boxes for the monthly spread.

The functional planner stickers, especially the box stickers, are sized to fit within the monthly calendar boxes specifically for the monthly spread of the Happy Planner. However, there are several resizing instructions on Pinterest on what percent to print this printable in order to resize the printable for planners with other dimensions.

How to Use this “ Monthly Planner Stickers” Printable:

There are several ways you can use this printable to create your stickers and I have included a few in the following instructions:

1) The easiest way to use this printout is to print it out on a full sheet of white sticker paper and if you own a Silhouette Cameo or Silhouette Portrait or other digital cutter you can cut out the to-do lists or planner stickers using their designer software. ( **Please note: You must have the Silhouette Designer Edition software upgrade to open pdfs in your Silhouette. I also have redesigned the template so that the margins are within the “registration” area of your silhouette. You will have to spend some time creating the cutlines for the silhouette but this should make creating the cutfile a lot easier.)

2) Also another method, would be to use heavy bond printer paper or you can use 65 lb. white cardstock depending on how thick you want your sticker and then place adhesive via a snail tape runner or with a Xyron sticker tool or machine.

3) The most labor intensive (or time consuming) way is to print out the planner stickers on sticker paper and “fussy cut” out by hand, I have spaced the elements so that you can use a pair of good craft scissors to get a clean cut and handle the fussy cutting. Another handy tool to have for the straight cuts is a slide or rotary paper trimmer which will reduce cutting around the stickers.

Facts about the freebie:

One sheet of HP functional planner stickers on an 8 1/2″ by 11″ pdf file.
These elements were created at 300 dpi, so your printing results should be very clear and sharp with a smooth lay down of the ink color. The preview pictures both on the blog and on Google are at 72 dpi, so you often can not see all the detail accurately or colors are sometimes distorted.
Color scheme: orange, light sage green, rust

As usual these freebies are free for personal use, (check my TOU if you haven’t previously.) If you have been here before, you know the drill. If not, you might want to read the quick TOU below before you access the printable.

Day Designer

If you spend any time on Pinterest, you must have seen all the “planning” pins, and maybe you are interested in jumping on the planning bandwagon. Let’s suppose though that you are not interested in shelling out several dollars for your initial planner, especially if you are not sure that the planner’s format or layout will work for you?

Then, I suggest you find inexpensive ways to take advantage of comparable but less expensive planners made available by top planner designer brands in order to “get your feet wet”, so to speak, or to try out a planning system to see if the format is the right fit for you.

That’s what I did when I decided on this Day Designer planner because I was interested in trying out a weekly layout that had an hour by hour format. I had been using my Mini Happy Planner for blog tasks because it was portable, had a weekly layout and a monthly view. I could easily pop the planner in my purse, if I needed to take it with me. That worked fine for awhile but now my blog tasks and activities or To Do List have since doubled.

In addition, my new blog tasks now require that my tasks need to be a lot more structured and time sensitive; so, I needed a format that would help me set up tasks connected to specific times of the day. The two choices I looked at were the Day Designer and the Erin Condren Hourly Format which are both great options.

However, since it is the middle of the year and I am still not sure if the hourly format is what I need, I purchased this DayDesigner planner by Blue Sky at Target. I decided I would also list a few other supplies for anyone who is basically starting from scratch and wants to get started without a huge cash layout. The sum total of my purchase was under $20 not including taxes.

Supplies:

Day Designer Planner for Blue Sky (“Spotty” Cover; dimensions 6″ x 8″) $11.99

Da yDesigner Magnetic Bookmarks $3.99

Page flags (Target Dollar Spot) $1.00

Pencil Set (Target Dollar Spot) $1.00

Black Pen Medium with/Stylus (Target Dollar Spot) $1.00

(Optional) 3 Gold Paper Clips (Michael’s) $1.99

Here’s what I think are the pros and cons of this planner.

Pros

Great layout or format, will help you get used to the system before investing more money, lines are college ruled and time slots are based on hourly portions
Hardboard cover is sturdy and the Day Designer has beautiful cover patterns especially in their Flagship planners.
Inexpensive
Get started right away
Smaller personal size with 6″ x 8″ planner, but you can also purchase a larger daily planner at Target for $29.99
Dollar spot items were surprisingly of better than expected quality. The medium point black pen wrote fairly smoothly. (My preference is a fine point)

Cons

Metal on coils on planner and stylus pen is thinner, cheaper, and may not bear up under rough handling
Planner paper is thinner 50% PCW recycled paper, may bleed through, difficulty turning pages ( Original Day Designer brand has 160 gsm paper)
Lines may be too small for some individual’s handwriting
Sticker possibilities may be limited due to formatted pages.

This image shows the comparison in size of the Day Designer to the original Erin Condren planner. It’s about 1.5 inches shorter all the way around as well as half the thickness. It also begins in the academic year. The Xyron tool, of course, I included as an optional item you might be interested in including as part of your planner supplies and tools. (Note: For full disclosure, this Teresa Collins Sticker maker was provided by the manufacturer.)

This is the whole “under $20.00 kit”, and I will be thrilled to share my review of how the hourly format works for me in a future product review update.
