post-it note free template
If you plan to print your own sticky notes, here's how:
1. Print the PDF on regular paper at 100% size.
2. Place a sticky note in each square and press it down firmly. Make sure corners are lying flat.
3. Put the paper back into your printer* and print the file one more time.

*ONLY TRY THIS if you understand how paper is fed through your printer. The top edge of the notes (where the adhesive is) should be pulled through the printer first or you're asking for a paper jam.

Print your own sticky notes
Fill in the blanks and leave notes throughout your house.

I like your style.
Perhaps you could run a competition to see if we can guess what we can't see. I guess your mother would probably win.

arj;talejr these are fantastic! If I liked the people in my office more I would leave them prettier notes. As it is I might just print off a bunch and keep them for my own, nefarious purposes.

I made this template in Adobe Illustrator, but you can make your own in any software that will draw boxes. Just measure a post-it and draw squares in your file that are a wee bit larger, and then put whatever you want inside the squares.

Margot said...

Thanks Jessica! I'll give it a shot! :)

Madame2b said...

Génial cette idée!
merci!

Unknown said...

This great designs but I wonder if you can share us the original file, I want to translate it into Spanish and to place my own sentences. I do not drive very well Adobe Illustrator, but if you would share would be easier, thanks

Jessica Jones said...

Hi Edwin, unfortunately licensing agreements don't allow me to share the fonts, so even if I made the Illustrator file available, it wouldn't look the same on your computer because the type would default to something else. But you could make your own version in Word or Powerpoint, I bet, if you don't feel comfortable in Illustrator.

Kim said...

This is awesome! Just printed some out and gave one to my boyfriend, I'll spring the rest on him on random days. Thanks for sharing! Great idea :)
