l’ve planned using sticky notes a few times in the past on paper, but never digitally. I liked how this spread turned out, but not so much how this one turned out. So I decided to try again but using digital sticky notes in Goodnotes this time.
Before the Pen
I imported this printable note paper from my shop into Goodnotes. I did a tutorial on how to do this here. If you’re adding the pages to a digital notebook and want to resize them to fit, I did a tutorial on how to do that here.
After the Pen
With more ‘black out’ bullet journals making an appearance I thought I’d do a digital version and use black. I could’ve just used black paper… but that’s a bit boring. So I made some black days of the week sticky notes instead.
I originally used white but it looked boring so changed to writing in colors instead.
On the right side I did my usual rainbow colors with a top 3, to do list and a quick tasks list.
If anyone is wondering, I used 0.45 pen size for general writing and 0.7 for the sticky notes. I prefer to zoom in, write with the Apple Pencil and then zoom out. It just seems to work better than writing on the iPad at full page size.
Supplies Used
Would I use this weekly spread again?
The sticky notes looked alright but would I do again? Maybe, maybe not.
Digital planning is ok every now and then… but I still prefer pen and paper. I like using digital stickers / more decoration in a digital planner as I can easily move things around. Most planner stickers are on non-removable sticker paper so once it’s stuck it’s hard to move without ripping the paper – not a problem when digital planning!
