You can use a digital notebook like a real notebook only it has clickable links within it. The notebook is set up with tabs on the right side (like a binder) so you can navigate to different sections.

Digital notebooks are like regular paper notebooks that has tabs in. BUT it has some major benefits.

Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing these files! I love this one-- I'm going to use it for my quilt projects-- as I'm more of a quilter. I downloaded the file, and was wondering if there was a way I could change the cover title to .. Stay Home and Quilt? It's not really that big of a deal, but thought it would be fun. I LOVE the color theme you used, fits my quilt studio just right!

Laura, You are so kind and gracious to all allow us to use all of your wonderful pages that you created. You have done an awesome job and you definitely have a gift from Jesus!! I have been wanting to try my hand at a digital planner/notebook. My daughter has been trying to get me to do the digital budgeting and my digital planner for several months and I keep putting it off or making excuses of why I can’t do it. I'm just not sure- but you make it look so easy!!

If you could see me now you would say please go digital so you won’t have all those books and papers in your lap!! Ü

Thank you again for the confidence and for the use of the pages. You will be Greatly Blessed!!

Hugs, Michele xoxo

Could you please explain how to copy & paste or insert the page template? I’m very new to Notability. Or maybe a tutorial link?

@Janya, hello! You have to have a digital planner app such as GoodNotes or Noteability. Then, you create a Text box to type in it. It's not a fillable PDF form because it's created with digital planner apps in mind vs. a computer. I hope this helps!
