Freebie Friday Food and Fitness Starter Pages!

Posted on January 24, 2020 by Helen

This is my first Freebie Friday since being active in my blogging again after losing my husband four months ago. I really want to get my “new normal” established on a good footing, so I’m sharing part of the Food and Fitness Planner I recently designed and put up in my Etsy shop. I’m sharing four pages from it to help you get a good start at a healthy lifestyle effort in 2020.

I have my son and I eating much healthier trying to lose weight. I’m down the lowest I’ve been in many years, but I still have plenty to lose and this is a brand new chapter. I’m extra motivated right now because my 16-year old son (autistic/non-verbal) is at his highest weight which is about 80 pounds higher than he needs to be. I want to be a good example and nip his weight issue in the bud this year while he’s still young.

I hope you will join me!

If you like the freebie, I have a 49-page Food and Fitness planner in my Etsy shop. I have three versions available. Click on the thumbnail below to check out the listing!

I recently posted a financial planner for 2020 too!

July through December

2020 Financial Planner Printable with a Freebie

Posted on January 15, 2020 by Helen

Brand new in my Etsy shop is a 2020 Financial Planner I just put together!

(Check out my Food and Fitness planner here too!)

Actually I made it for myself and a few people in my Facebook group asked if I was selling it and I decided to polish it up a bit and add it to my Etsy shop. I’ve been wanting to get more offerings in there anyway. In addition, if you do decide to purchase it, just know that you are helping my son and I with bills and groceries as we await my husband’s social security income decision (for my new readers, he passed away in September…) Things are really tight at the moment and you would be helping me to build my online business and provide for my son and I in my husband’s absense.

If you’d like a freebie page of it, click HERE

If you would like to purchase the whole thing, it’s in two parts (due to Etsy size restrictions) at the following links:

January through June, 2020

July through December, 2020

Here are thumbnail images of what’s inside. I’m giving you a thumbnail view which has a watermark on it. The original is created at 300 dpi for nice clear printing and does not have the watermark on it. When you see the images created for January, every month has a matching page for it.

Check out my Etsy shop for this planner and other printable items

Thank you for your consideration!

I usually print these out on 28 pound white paper (or 32 pound paper is even better) and just stick them right into my planner or journal. The heavier the paper, the less chance it will tear out of your binder or planner by accident and helps resist bleeding or ghosting from your pens or markers. It helps the page turn easier too.

Worried about ink-heavy pages? Do like I did and enlist in the HP Instant Ink program! I’ve saved so much money on ink since I did a year and a half ago. They have different plans, but the one I’m in (the most pages) is that I can print up to 300 pages worth of ink for just over $9.99 per month. You can choose lesser pages for a lower rate, but I do a lot of printing between coupons, planner stickers and other things. Click on the image here to check it out! –>

Thanksgiving Planner A5 Traveler’s Notebook Insert -Printable

Posted on October 27, 2018 by Helen

Fresh up in my Etsy shop is a 50-page Thanksgiving planner! It’s a printable traveler’s notebook insert (a digital download) in the A5 size. This is enough space for anyone to plan this year’s Thanksgiving celebrations! I hope you give it a chance and help me to grow my shop. It’s just a tiny corner of Etsy but I think it offers a lot and I’ll be adding continually.

In fact, next up will be a Christmas planner, so keep an eye out for that!

Here are the previews for what’s inside (watermarks not included on purchased product):

Freebie Friday -Cut Files and PNGs for TV Show Planner Stickers 2018 2019

Posted on September 2, 2018 by Helen

I meant to get this posted yesterday, but the past few days have been really busy! I’ve heard frow a handful of you who are enjoying these, and that makes it worth the work for me 🙂 As I said last week, I sized them to fit the classic Happy Planner and the Erin Condren planner.

There are SO many TV shows now that it would take forever to vet them, so I have no idea of the content of many of these. So I ask you to please use your own discretion in using them according to your own values and know if there is something very unGodly in them, I haven’t vetted them so don’t email me complaining if there is something not so worthy. Having said that, shows I know for sure to be ones that someone following Jesus should not be promoting I did exclude (Lucifer, Supernatural, etc.), so this is in no way a total list. It IS very thorough list though, I have to say! 🙂 I put a lot of work into it for sure! 🙂

My hope in creating these is that those of us who grew up in the TV generation and beyond can choose a handful of our favorite shows and plan for them, so that we aren’t just sitting in front of the screen mindlessly lost in the fog of information being thrown at us. Choose your favorites and schedule watching them into your day, be it when it’s first aired or (like me) from your DVR.

I first made these last year and didn’t use them as much as I thought I would because I got in the habit of just watching whatever showed up on the DVR. But now my hope is to do the advice I just gave you and choose a handful of shows and include them into my planner. I can see ahead of time what shows will be on the next day that I want to watch and schedule the amount of time they will play into my day the next day so I watch just those and be a better steward of my time. That’s where these stickers and my planner come in 🙂

This week I am posting the cut files for the Silhouette cutting machine, and the png file for Cricut machines and digital planners. (I also included the blackout png for those who want that). This will be a graphic-heavy post, so please be patient for it to load 🙂 I’d love to see how you use these! Remember these are for personal use only! I am not selling these because I don’t own the license to the various graphics, so please, personal use only.

For just the PDF versions, you can pick those up on my blog posts the past few week HERE and HERE

These are in alphabetical order BUT there are several at the end where the alphabet starts over again (some additional stickers I added in later)

I’m posting a thumbnail image to what each file contains. It leads to a zip file that will take you to where you download it for use. Just click on the image you’d like!

Freebie Friday – TV Show Printable Planner Stickers 2018-2019 Part 2

Posted on August 24, 2018 by Helen

This week’s Freebie Friday is part 2 of my printable planner stickers for TV Shows for the Fall 2018-Winter 2019 season. I sized them to fit the classic Happy Planner and the Erin Condren planner.

I will also be updating this post with links to CUT FILES for the Silhouette (my personal favorite that I’m a proud owner of) and the Cricut cutting machines, so keep an eye out for that update! These are PDF versions of the whole set (with an introductory page in each set). So my advice is to print the pages you want to use rather than the whole set.

Next week’s Freebie Friday will probably be a post of all the cut files from last week’s set and this week’s.

Freebie Friday – TV Show Printable Planner Stickers 2018-2019

Posted on August 17, 2018 by Helen

This week’s Freebie Friday is a set of printable planner stickers. They are for TV Shows for the Fall 2018 – Winter 2019 season. I sized them to fit the classic Happy Planner and the Erin Condren planner.

There are SO many TV shows now that it would take forever to vet them, so I have no idea of the content of many of these. So I ask you to please use your own discretion in using them according to your own values and know if there is something very unGodly in them, I haven’t vetted them so don’t email me complaining if there is something not so worthy.

It’s a very thorough list though, I have to say! 🙂 I put a lot of work into it for sure! 🙂

Right now for Freebie Friday I am sharing the TV Shows alphabetically and numerically, so this first installment is the number one through the letter I. (I’m still working on the rest). I will also be updating this post with links to CUT FILES for the Silhouette (my personal favorite that I’m a proud owner of) and the Cricut cutting machines, so keep an eye out for that update! These are PDF versions of the whole set (19 pages of planner stickers with an introductory page). So my advice is to print the pages you want to use rather than the whole set.

Here we go!

I tried to put these all into one big PDF file, but it was too big a file to upload, so I had to break them down into smaller file sizes.

Freebie Friday – Candy Christmas Printable Planner Stickers

Posted on November 24, 2017 by Helen

This week’s Freebie Friday almost didn’t happen 🙂 With the craziness of preparing for Thanksgiving, I didn’t prepare a freebie for you. Fortunately, unlike thousands of crazy Black Friday shoppers, I had a quiet day at home and got some things done earlier and decided to throw something together for our Freebie Friday. It’s not the fanciest set, but I think it will be cute used on a Christmas layout 🙂

Please let me know in the comments below if you use these! I’d love to hear and/or see 🙂

These are sized for the brand new Happy Planner classic.

Print these out on full-size (letter) sticker paper. I use these here. They’re priced great and you can write on them easily. They are good enough quality for my needs. If you want a top-quality sticker paper look for these or clear ones here. (Though not all pens or markers will write well on the clear ones). If you don’t want to use sticker paper, you can print them on card stock or regular printer paper and glue them down. Honestly, the sticker paper is the best way, however. Regardless of the type.

If you’d like this printable, click on the image below to pull up the full-sized PDF file for printing. If you use this kit, I would LOVE to see how you use it! Please comment below so I can see ?

Please remember this is for PERSONAL USE ONLY!

Going through a lot of ink printing out planner stickers? Do like I did and enlist in the HP Instant Ink program! I’ve saved so much money on ink since I did a year and a half ago. They have different plans, but the one I’m in (the most pages) is that I can print up to 300 pages worth of ink for just over $9.99 per month. You can choose lesser pages for a lower rate, but I do a lot of printing between coupons, planner stickers and other things. Click on the image here to check it out! –>
