Have you seen the planner being offered at jessicasprague.com (PDF files) as well as in the shop (SVG dividers and cover)? I have to say it is one of my favorite projects, and meets a few of my all time favorite criteria, functional, easy to make and beautiful. Seriously, the divider pages took less than 10 seconds each to cut and the covers took even less (yes I really counted) and I used my favorite papers.
Today we have a few different styles to show you. Each designer had a different need, so they became completely different projects using the same files, which I loved.
Christine put her’s in a 3 ring binder and decorated each of her divider tabs. She even added a new section for the add on pages and created a divider tab for each one. BEAUTIFUL! She has more pictures and info at her blog here.
Next I want to show you what Amanda has created.
She used just the add on pages and made mini notebooks. She printed her’s half size (2 per page) and cut them down and bounded them. 
She also added the cute rose cutout to the front of each one.
And finally, this is the planner I have been working on to keep Lori and I organized. I created mine full size (8.5×11) and plan to have it professionally bound at a copy store. Currently the pages are loose because I am hoping for a better deal having 2 bound at the same time. I am making one for my mom for her birthday next month, shhh don’t tell her. These make great gifts and go together so fast. It took longer to print the pages than it did to cut the dividers.
I used Echo Park’s “For the Record” Collection for my entire planner. Each divider is a different pattern (I do plan to go back and add month titles.) Notice how the cover fits perfectly over the dividers so no dividers sticking out, WHICH I LOVE! Also the planner cover has slightly rounded corners so no sharp points that will get ruined or draw blood as the year goes on.
When I organized the monthly, weekly and add on pages, I added a set of add on pages to each month, instead of all in one section like Christine. My brain doesn’t think that way, but I love her idea. With all those pages my planner measures 1/2″ thick. I think for my mom’s I am going to add a page with all her family members birthdate’s on it and put it in the front. I have more info on my blog here if you want to check it out.
We would love to see what you have done with these files too. Share them on our Facebook page here.
Hi, how would I be able to get these files to print? Thank you so much for your help.

Catarina, the printable files are available at the jessicasprague link at the top of this post. That file comes with ALL the printed pages as well as a pattern for file tabs and month titles. You would then just fold and tape them to an 8.5×11 piece of card stock. Does that make sense? IF you also have a digital die cut machine you can buy the SVG files in Lori’s shop and cut the cover and dividers.
I printed them on my home printer, but you could also take the file to a local copy shop and have it done.
Are the tabbed pages templates? Or are the tabs separate? I can’t really tell. 🙂 I love all of them, especially yours, Lisa!
Thanks, I loved them too. The tabbed pages are not templates, they are only SVG’s, HOWEVER there are folding tabs available in the PDF file, does that help? If you fold and glue them to a 9×11 you get close to the same thing.
Inspiring projects ladies! I love them all! I especially love that it’s a beautiful project that’s functional and will get tons of use over the year (and then serves as a keepsake to remember your busy year and dates for years to come). These are great gift ideas as well! 🙂
Wow, all of these planners are so fun and unique even though they all come from the same base files. I love that you can really tailor make these projects your own using digital papers and cut files. Amanda, your planner with the binding at the top is a great idea. Love the black with the pop of color. The rose die cut was the perfect embellishment. Lisa, your planner looks awesome. Love the papers you chose and that you made a double set of your tabs. I like that is a full 8 1/2 x 11 size. I might have to make one of those too. Just awesome projects as always ladies. Such fun inspiration all the time!!
xoxo, Christine
Amazing job, ladies. I have my planner printed, but I have not had a chance to get the tabs cut and assemble the planner. I need to schedule the time to do that, LOL… too bad I don’t have a planner…LOL. Never fear, I’ll get mine done!
I love all three designs. Looking forward to doing a couple for gifts
I love the planner!!! I downloaded the files but they are not printing correctly. Should I print it a special way? I printed both the monthly and weekly files 2 sided.
i downloaded the calendar but they are not printing correctly too
I lost several papers =(
the printing is not coordinated
I tried print half size (2 per page) duplex and cut them down, but it didn´t was coordinate
