Week #4: August 1 Weekly Spread - Lavender and Green

Welcome to this week's Plan with Me! If you're looking for inspiration for a Happy Planner weekly spread, look no further! This week (Week #4) I bring to you the August 1st weekly spread - Lavender and Mint; beautiful pastels that go well together; as well as a free PDF printable of the stickers I used in this theme.  If you decided to use this, or like the theme please drop me a comment!

I experimented with different theme ideas, including "magenta, orange and blue" but that felt a bit too bold for me.

Supplies: 

• Color printer
• Scissors or Paper Trimmer (to cut straight lines)
• School Glue
• Washi Tape (Lavender and Green)
• Stickers
• Sticky Notes for the side bar

If you own a sticker sheet, you can cut right onto a sticker sheet and then use scissors or Xacto knife to cut around the stickers. 

Read on to learn how I put this together.

Step 1: Creating Ombre To Do Lists & Graphics

I decided to create my own Ombre "To Do Lists" in Photoshop this time around. I also collected pretty graphics from Pinterest and WeHeartIt (click thumbnails to enlarge): 

 

Step 2: Print & Cut Out Graphics

Step 3: Glue/Stick Graphics

I used regular dollar store Elmer's School Glue to paste these babies onto my planner sheet. 

I decided to alternate the placement of the stickers and ombre "to-do lists" to create a nice eye-pleasing pattern. 

Step 4: Apply Washi Tape

Next I selected several washi tape colours, including various shades of purple and green. 

A neat design trick I really enjoy using is putting a different shade of washi tape over top, creating a double layer effect. This looks really classy!

Step 4: Add Little Washi Flags

Simply cut a small triangle on one end of a short piece of washi. I like applying these over the top. 

Step 5: Add your stickys to your weekly sidebar:

I like adding the sidebar since it allows me to write my week's goals and different projects I am working towards. 

Step 6: Add any event stickers to the week: 

My week consists of a doctor's appointment as well as a co-worker's birthday. 

I had an extra clear sticker, so I thought, why not? "Best Day Ever!"
