Welcome to my february spreads! For this month's theme I chose music/notes. Thank you San! I made it a bit more collagey than what's normal for me, but I really like it. For the layouts I didn't really change much from last month, which is surprising to me, because I started a new journal in january and I already managed to find layouts that work well for me. Especially the trackers were great!
Here is my cover page. I just used some photocopies of notes I had lying around and didn't need anymore and an old paper bag.
Next, my monthly calender. In addition to the notes and paper bag I also used some black and white and again music notes washi. This is very full and collagey for me, especially if you compare it to last month, but I realy like it and I enjoyed making it. Also it's nice to finally use some of the washis I have.
I said it before and I'll say it again: THIS TRACKER IS AWESOME!!! It's by journalspiration
and I absolutely love it! Even in my big journal, I never managed to fit a habit, sleep and study tracker on one page and she just does it so effortlessly. It's genius. Anyway, on the other page I have my to do and creative ideas page. Again, I used the same materials as before.
The next page is my finances page. This worked well in january so I'm using it again. I think setting a budget really helps me keep an eye on my spending. Before that I jusg kinda always wrote down what I spent, but it didn't really hold me able. Then, here is my first weekly spread of the month. Or, well it's more like half a weekly spread. I will set the other ones up as I go.
I used some old notes I got as a background for my photos. They're properly old, and I think they're just so pretty! They're brownish which works really well with ths paper bag and I mean they're notes so obviously they fit the theme perfectly.
This was the first part of my #onemonthchallenge

Great scrapping choice. Notes are always fun without looking too cluttered

My favorite was drawing the treble cleft tho it gave me many troubles to get it not looking lopsided

Yeah true. But for that you just have to look at original handwritings of composers. Honestly, what they try to of as a treble clef is barely a squiggle :D

Totally fair! Didn't think about that, my dad(a pianist) always had such pretty writing kinda got me assuming, but hey as long as you can read it yourself.
Soooo beautifuuullll. I mean, I never thought when you said you'd do music as the theme it would turn out this way! Btw, I didn't really understand how the habit tracker works? I know it's probably really obvious but I'm just too stupid
Awww thank you!!! Well the tracker really is quite simple. There's the numbers on the top. Then on the top left are my habits, in the middle on the left are studying hours, and on the bottom left is a sleep tracker. This is how my january looks filled in.
I really like it
Thank you :)
Awww the scores look so old and beautiful in the back and I really like the calender. Especially knowing your notebook is tiny :heart_eyes:
Aww thanks. Yes I'm actually SO EXCITED about the scores and I'm so glad I could use them in this way :)
