Pink & Black themed spread in the Clever Fox Weekly Planner
Clever Fox is one of the few planners with sewn binding that I’ll use as the pages lay flat. They have quite a few planner layout nowadays (I’ll be doing reviews of them soon), but one of their original layouts was their weekly planner:

Clever Fox Weekly Planner Review
After the Pen
This planner has neutral colors so you know what that means… time to add some color!
I was originally going to do a pink ombre theme with highlighters and colored pens… but highlighters tend to come in either all the same shade of that color (no matter the brand), or very bright / very pastel with shades that didn’t look that great together. So plan B was a black and pink theme.
If you did want to try an ombre pink weekly spread with pens, see this post for a comparison I did of various pink pens.

I prefer to do monthly habit tracking instead of weekly so covered that section with a sticky note. It was a cheap one I found at Spotlight years ago so wasn’t very sticky – hence the addition of the washi tape.
The dots in the notes section of this planner are a dark shade of grey making it a bit busy. However, Clever Fox listened to feedback and have updated this for their newer planners – the dots are now a lighter shade of grey.

The planner is undated – I was going to just write the dates in with pen but stickers stand out more. Since I didn’t have a set of printed & cut stickers for all dates in pink (as I tend to do rainbow themes), I grabbed some plain date dot stickers and did a border with a marker pen.
Highlighter versus no highlighter:




Supplies Used
- Clever Fox Weekly Planner (see my review in this post)
- Chevron pink washi tape from my sister’s shop
- Crayola Take Note 0.7mm retractable pen (black)
- Prima Planner date dot sticker
- Tombow twin tone brights pen (hot pink)
- Carpe diem caelndar stickers
- Square checkbox stickers
- Colored dot stickers
- Movie sticker
- Asterisk sticker
- To do sticky note (purchased years ago from Spotlight)

Would I use this planner again?
I like the weekly spread – simple + lined. The 2nd page is a bit too structured for me – especially with the A5 page size – it’s not enough room to write.
I have the Clever Fox weekly planner Pro version on it’s way which has a modified layout to this one & a larger page size so I might try that layout out and see if I like it better.
