Personalized Notebook {how to / tutorial}

I'm a 'list' kinda gal...
I write everything down...
in no particular order and in no way an organized manner...
and then...
the notebook gets full 
and 90% of the book is trash ...
but there are just a few pages that I want to keep...
then what?!?

This is a struggle I've been dealing with 
F O R E V E R!!!

Then I saw THIS at less cake {more frosting} and thought...
why didn't I think of that?!?  
The thing that caught my attention was the self-adhesive tabs...
P E R F E C T!!!

So I went to the store and thats where I had an AHA moment...
one of those moments where you dance around the store without a care in the world!  You know the kind...

Y'all want to know why I was dancing around the store like a 
C R A Z Y person?!?

Cuz I found this...


I know what your thinking!  

'Silly Jessica...what's so special about that?!?'

Well, other than the fact that it is uber cute...


it's customizable and you can add and remove sheets as you go!


Go ahead...say it!

AHA!!!

Don't you just love it when stuff like that comes together?!?
{{Oh, BTW, the notebook is an ARC}}

 So...using the cool self-adhesive index tabs by AVERY 
used over at
less cake {more frosting}
I made me up some dividers...
ya know...to keep me organized!


I hate my own handwriting so I used a label maker...

I stole some of the labels from Miss Ellie G {aka Lara}...
hope she'll forgive me.

And see...it's filling up fast...


Yes...that is my inspiration for DIVA's room redo...
