Monthly Calendar Layouts

For each month, I used a simple grid calendar. The lettering for this layout is a blue or green print font. Additionally, there is a column to the right of the calendar which is broken into to sections. The columns are labeled "goals" and "music."

Habit Tracking

The habit tracker is a table for each month with a square for each day of that month. The header is either blue or green calligraphy font and black print font. The top of the table or chart is left blank for Amanda to include her own habits and change these as she goes.

Spending Log

This spending log is a simple layout. The header is a blue or green brush lettered font. The remainder of the spread is a 3-column table. The columns include the date, expense, and amount.

Quotes

Each month features various positive quotes. These quotes are done in blue, green, or black ink using a variety of font choices. To see each of these quotes view the images or video. Additionally, below is a list of the quotes used.

Grow through what you go through.
The little things in life are where we find real, true joy.
Reach for the stars.
Breathe.
Keep it simple.
You are some kind of wonderful.
See good in all things.

Monthly Themed Mood Tracking

The mood trackers are different each month. The most apparent difference is the theme or picture chosen. The images are broken into enough parts so that there is a part for each day of the month. Then, each day, the image parts get filled in. Each mood is assigned to a specific color, design, or shade of a color. Next, Amanda can color in each part according to her mood or moods for that day. In the list below are the theme or imagery for each month.

January – snowy mountains
February – space and planets
March – daffodil flowers
April – Easter bunny
May – flower bouquet
June – fruit popsicle
July – sunshine
August – lemon wedges
September – autumn leaves
October – pumpkin patch
November – bomfire
December – Christmas bulbs

Weekly Row-Style Spreads

The weekly layouts include seven rows, four on the left page and three on the right. Then, the main header is an all-caps black print font. And finally, the day of the week is a bold blue or green capital letter with the date is a small subscript.
