It's a Good Day to Have a Good Day with Graphic 45!
We think it is indeed a good day to have a good day! Kathy Clement makes it even better with this awesome 2017 planner! Let's take a look:
"I am a list girl. My motto is “if it isn’t written down, it isn’t going to happen.” My creativity is definitely linked to how organized I am. If my brain (or my home/studio) is cluttered, my mojo takes a hike. That’s why I designed this 2017 “It’s a Good Day to Have a Good Day” planner to be my “list central”. There is room inside for daily to do lists, a monthly calendar, design team deadlines, shopping lists, creative ideas, receipts, menu planning and more.
I used bits and pieces of older Graphic 45 collections along with the newly released A Place in Time Deluxe Collector’s Edition to design a planner that is filled with inspiring images and colors. With this planner by my side, 2017 is shaping up to be a year filled with order and creativity. Hooray!" ~Kathy
Tip: I included folios in my design so I can add photos of events, or keep a photographic record of my favorite projects throughout the year.
Tip: Custom paper clips or binder clips are all the rage. While they are adorable, they are also expensive. Why not create your own custom embellies using simple supplies like paper clips, chipboard, postage stamp images or novelty buttons? I have a short YouTube video to show you how easy it is to make your own. These also look fabulous on cards and in scrapbook layouts.
Tip: The internet is loaded with free printable calendars and to do lists. Use these to create a simple organization system within your planner. I found the cute ones I used in my planner at Botanical Paperworks.
Tip: When 2019 rolls around, I can just print new calendars and lists and I’ll be ready to roll!

Super gorgeous projects! After having a paper planner for awhile I've actually decided to go digital, the calendar on my phone has finally improved to the point that I think I can use it. I will use my creativity to make other fun projects instead! :)
