Getting Things Done & Journaling Cards

Getting Things Done & Journaling Cards. I was happy to get this red leather Arc planner and I have 30 divider tabs in it for Getting Things Done.

Right now it is being used as a project planner for decluttering. I have top tabs in use for: declutter schedule (40 bags in 40 days), donations (where I am putting my list of donations for tax purposes), keep inventory (if we decide it should be kept), keep sell (where I’m selling it – amazon, a book sale coming up, garage sale, or elsewhere), and items undecided (obv). I have a lot of scrapbooking paper and want to use it. I searched on how to make your own journaling cards and found this: MsWenduhh Planning & Printing: How To Make Your Own Journaling Cards Easily. I have some of the Sizzix Little Sizzles paper packs and thought the size difference couldn’t be that far off of what a journaling card size is. Since I have an Arc Planner I was hoping there’d be a way where I didn’t have to add anything like a sticker or Post-it tab to get the journaling card to stay in the planner. The Sizzix paper is 4 1/2″ x 6 1/2″. I cut off 1/2″ from the bottom. I made a couple of quick page flags with the excess paper. Then I drew a line on the side that will hold the paper in the planner. I rounded the two outside corners with a corner rounder. The other corners will be punched out once the card is cut. Once the card is filled out, I’ll just cut from the line I drew and it’ll be 4″ x 6″.

Once the declutter challenge and upcoming book sale are over, the GTD planner will be used for gtd. I might add another divider tab for 31 days. Each divider tab is for every day of the month. What I need will be put on a piece of paper for each tab. What I might need for that particular day will go in my green Arc planner.
