Bill Folder by Yvonne Blair featuring the Memories Collection

Hey everyone it's Yvonne back again with some more organizational fun!

I have been on this kick for, well, the whole year.  

Trying to find ways to make my life run more smoothly.

  

So I am really trying to do a few things that will help me be more efficient in a timely manner. 

Here is a bill folder that I made. 

It helps that I think it's pretty. I won't avoid it that way! 

 As you can see below there is a page for each month. 

 This is the inside front cover and the area that will be the "dash" board so to speak.

I adhered a whole package of Teresa's post it notes to the inside cover so they are handy and I can leave myself a note on any page that I need to. Love those.

 Below is a look to see how very simple the inside pages are.  There is a pocket on each side. 

Left is incoming bills and the right will be "paid" bills.  I have put one of the calendars on each right page so I can fill it out with the proper dates, highlight the due dates.  The left page has a page attached where I can list what bills are due on what day.  

I think this system is really going to help me be more timely, wink.  

 Here is a closer peek at the cover.  I love dimension so I had to layer a few things.  

Memories is such a versatile line.  I really love that I have created something pretty that will help me stay focused and more organized.  

 Hope you enjoyed and or have been inspired to create your own organizational tools!
