Quick and Easy Perpetual Calendar for Your Planner

Hello everyone! It’s Jennifer here, and today I’d like to share a fun, quick, and easy birthday calendar insert I made for my Happy Planner! I prefer to use checklist flag stickers instead of the full box checklists on my weekly spreads, so I love finding creative ways to use up my sticker stash! I had a perpetual calendar from Erin Condren that I used to list important birthdays and anniversaries, but I didn’t like it very much because I didn’t have a ton of birthdays to list. Every month I had to remember where I put the thing, and most of it looked pretty blank. So I thought this would be a perfect use for my extra full box checklist stickers!
For this project, I used:
- Happy Planner sized full box checklist stickers left over from the Rio kit, the Daydreams and Ice Creams kit, and the Harbor Dreams kit.
- January thru June Monthly Header Stickers (DA20-1)
- July thru December Monthly Header Stickers (DA20-2)
- Cardstock
- Happy Planner Punch
- Washi
First, I cut down my cardstock to fit my Happy Planner, or approximately 9 ¼ x 7 inches, and punched it with the Happy Planner punch. Next, I put down my full box stickers, 6 on each side of the page. I could have gone with colors that matched my cardstock better, but I thought it would be fun to try and pick colored checklists that went along with each month: icy blue for January; pink for February; shamrock green for March; etc.
Don’t forget to label your boxes! These monthly header labels are perfect for this project, plus you’ll have plenty left over for other things! As a finishing touch, I added some confetti and “celebrate” washi from my stash to make things a little more festive.
Now all you have to do is fill out the calendar! I was able to transfer all of my important birthdays and anniversaries from my perpetual calendar to my insert, so now I’ll always have the information with me!
What is your favorite unconventional sticker use? I’d love to see! Tag me on Instagram @paprikaplans or share it on our Popfizzpaper Fans Facebook group! Happy planning, everyone!
