One of the sure signs of spring to me is all the pretty tulips and flowers that start popping up! I LOVED the way April’s theme turned out bringing the beautiful spring time to the paper.

Title Page
I always start my month off with a title page. Something to start off the mood for the month. On the left page I will include a quote. Sometimes the quotes will be inspiring, sometimes they will be funny, sometimes they just give me an opportunity to practice my calligraphy! On the right page I include the month with doodles for whatever theme I have chosen for the month.
I’ve really been focusing on positivity not just in my life but with others around me. Life is too short to be anything but happy and I really believe you have to take your own happiness into your hands. For this reason I chose the quote “She designed a life she loved”.
I love the details in the flowers on this page. They were very simple but together I think they look so pretty! I didn’t use a lot of color because I love the simplicity.
April Monthly Log
My first page in my monthly is always a monthly overview. Sometimes I will do this as a line by line overview or alternatively a calendar style view. After I set up the monthly overview I will fill it in with anything for the month from my future log and I will copy over birthdays from my birthday spread.
Goal Setting Spread
This goal setting page is something new I am trying this year. In my annual plan with me I set up a goal setting page. To keep myself on track to these goals I am going to set monthly goals under the same four categories. The four categories I am using for my goal setting are: Personal, Health, Finance, and Business.
I also wanted a place in my monthly to track some blog measures and I thought my goal setting page would be a good place for this. At the end of the month I am going to track how many page views I had over the month. I am also going to track my Instagram following over the month, Facebook likes over the month, and Pinterest stats.
Habit Tracker and Mood Tracker Spreads
The next page will be my habit tracker. I like to experiment layouts to keep it interesting. As the month progresses I will go in and highlight the date I completed the thing I wanted to. Then at the end of the month I can see how I did for the goals I was tracking.
A mood tracker is a fun way to keep track of how your month is going. They’re also fun because they are one of the most artistic spreads you can bring to your monthly bullet journal spreads!
I combined my mood and habit trackers on one page and I love the accessibility of having both on one page.
I think they layout of the mood tracker is so cute! It again follows the theme of simplicity. It won’t bring as much color to my bullet journal as some monthly mood trackers do due to the flowers being so small. However I love the way it looks and I can’t wait to use it!
Work Hour Tracker and Gratitude Log
The next 2 spreads are a work hour tracker and a gratitude page. These are both spreads that I like to fill out daily along with my habit tracker. They are again very simple layouts that are effective.
Weekly Spread
Lastly when I am setting up a monthly spread I will always complete the first weekly spread for the month!
On my weekly I included a meal plan and a space for my to do list. On the top left I included a monthly overview. And on each day I decided to go back and try adding a place to track water drinking.
I again carried the beautiful detailing of the flowers to my weekly.
