I was ALWAYS a horizontal planner - like, my entire life. Then I tried the dashboard out of curiosity, and I abandoned my horizontal. The classic dashboard is absolutely perfect for my needs - running to-do list, daily tasks/appointments/reminders, shopping list, errands, meal planning. I love it!
Don’t you LOVE Mary Ellen’s generosity?!! Her designs are so beautiful, colorful and creative. She motivates me to push myself to a great spread each week!!! You can learn a lot while watching her!!!!
you all probably dont give a shit but does any of you know a trick to log back into an instagram account?? I stupidly lost my password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me!
@Izaiah Brayden thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
This spread is really cute. I love the combined themes. I also enjoyed Bumble making an appearance. Her barking doesn’t bother me. I think she’s a cool dog.
Love the spread. Yes would defiantly like to see more dashboard layouts, I have classic size one, so to get some ideas from you would be fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, this first attempt makes you look like a pro. If you didn't say this was your first time I don't anyone could tell. I just did a fruit spread for this week in my Big Happy Planner as well. Beautiful spread. If you want I can send it to you so you can see it. 😊
I use a classic dashboard layout as my only planner and I love it! On the left side I keep 2 running to do lists, one for home to do's and one for my handmade jewelry and ceramics shop (we keep our grocery list on a paper pad in the kitchen. I use the large box on the bottom of the left page for gratitude/journaling. I keep track of my exercise in the "dinner" box on the right hand page. Hope that gives you some ideas. I think your spread turned out really cute. Hope it works well for you!
Also, I would love to see you do more dashboard layouts. It is the style that got me using the Happy Planner as all the days of the week are on one page, and the planning and lists are out of the way on the other page.
For being so scared and nervous you nailed it! Great job! Not sure I will ever have that much vision to pre-plan like this....my life is not exciting at all! Lol TFS!
I have used the big dashboard layout but kept switching because the left page throws me. I'm going to use it this week! Thank you, I hope you do more of these layouts
During lockdown I used a classic dashboard layout and loved it. Enough room to list what I needed to do and decorate as well as journaling. I’m currently in a vertical but not sure it’s the most practical layout. I really love my horizontal most but need to change throughout the year! Go figure lol xxx💕
I bought the classic dashboard that started July 2020and goes through Dec. 2021. It is black and very neutral. I bought it because I love my dashboard mini so much. I was about to start it and I thought that looks like a lot of space. So you showed me this beautiful spread. Mine is black and gold on the cover and says “Be Wild and Wander.” After seeing how you did that, I’m even more excited to use this 18 mo. Dashboard. Great job.
I applaud you because I can't decorate a dashboard atall.. I have tried and every spread ended up in the bin!!! This turned out very cute and I look forward to seeing how it looks after the pen and if you found it worked for you :)
I would love to see you do more dashboard layouts because I love yours! I think younwill find that most who use the dashboard, change the size or the purpose of the sections. The larger space allows for more chance to expand on a theme with decoration without taking away from the functionality.
Hi, I just wanted to thank you for this video, the struggle is real with decorating a bid dashboard. I have been trying to use a dashboard to keep track of home and kids schedules bur don’t think I have been successful. Thanks for letting us watch your struggle, it really has helped me.
In the spring I was using a mini dashboard to keep track of distance learning. I was finding it too small so I bought the big! I also bought a big vertical because of you. Now I’m thinking of switching them. Using the big vertical for distance learning and using the dashboard for catch all. I’ll be using them starting Sept (I’ve been procrastinating lately). Really love what you did. It looks awesome!
You did a great job on decorating this. I switched to the Biz Babe big dashboard just for work. It is working great for what I need, but unfortunately I can't be much help when it comes to decorating because I keep it pretty minimal, not because it is going to be seen by anybody but because I need all the space I can get. So I tend to put quotes or stickers just on the Saturday and Sunday box.
Off topic like usual lol but finally bumped up a tier and finally found the fb group link so just waiting to be excepted now 😛😛 I’m super exited! Now back to the video 😁 so far so good! I love all fruit spreads! Thanks for sharing love 😊😊 EDITED: Bumble your embarrassing me and your self 😂😂😂 that was soooo cute! Lol
I love this!! This is my planner and I’m new - it made me feel better that you were nervous about this layout! Thank our so much for the ideas and please do more of these!!
Loved this ... and would love to see more in this big dash ... and would love to hear your opinion of using it. I love using a vertical as catch-all but may enjoy trying out a dash, too. 💚💚💚
I have one big planner that is dashboard and I use for a wellness planner. I had it for the 18m planner 19-20 and wanted to try it out again(was trying for the 10x and yes exaggerating but giving it another shot and so far I'm digging a big planners but don't want to speak too soon lol) so I pulled out the one not being used. Plus it is still this year and didn't have to redate it. I also switched from classic dashboard to big vertical. Now I use 3 big planners that I frankenplan using vertical, dashboard and horizontal. I wanted to use all the stickers since I have well over 150+ HP sticker books so I wanted more space to play around in and have fun doing all the decorative planning. Let's face it for me I will want all the new sticker books being released in fall. Use what ya have, right 😂
Thanks for the dashboard layout. I have the classic size dashboard this year, and often struggle with ideas. Would love to see you do another, since this one was last August!
I use a big horizontal but have considered switching to a dashboard layout as it seems more suitable for my needs so I'm interested in seeing more. The classic size is too small for me. I write big and I like a lot of stickers so big is perfect for me.
This is so cute! I never knew how to use all my fruit stickers except to decorate grocery lists. 😅 I definitely want to give this a try! Love the Bumble appearance, btw! 💛💛
I’m watching this very late into the year (9 months after you posted) but I have frankenplanned a big dashboard/horizontal/vertical and I am struggling! I want to use all my old planners and I had a great plan when I put it together a week ago and now I can’t remember what I was going to do in each section 🤦🏻♀️ decorating for me is the hardest part!! I love all of the spreads you’ve done, I really enjoy seeing any without flowers lol!
Yes please do more dashboards!!! I have the farmhouse dashboard planner and some times struggle with it also!!! Btw....had to turn my computer volume down when Bumble started barking because my dog Lyla decided to join in LOL
I LOVE how this turned out...i use a BIG happy planner for my catch all/everyday use....but i have a mini...skinny mini and cannot decide which one to use for my purse planner...i am currently using a mini dashboard and I think it may be the best fit....so I'm considering franken-planning with a BIG dashbaord
I was about to say me, me, me but I do classic size dashboard on my channel. I use the Homebody Classic planner. You have given inspiration of what to do on my spread for September. Thank you for sharing!
I love this spread! It's my girls' last week of summer vacation so I think I'm going to use this for Inspo I couldn't decide what to do in my classic dashboard this week.
That's cute. I've been in the Homebody planner(classic) all year. It's tricky but it works well and I'm considering going to a big dashboard for next year... Yes more please... It's so hard to find good inspiration
This might be Detailed Florals. I was loving my mini dash for my weight tracking planner so thought more room would be good. Nope. Can not figure out how to use the classic dash ... way too functional! Mine is a gorgeous planner but I don't know what to do with all those areas on the left. Looking forward to this! 💚💚💚
I thought about leaves you go along with my fruit! I think this turned out great!! I love my classic dashboard but then I don’t have tons of stuff going on. I’m always happy to see other dashboard PWMs to help inspire me!! And let there be no doubt as to my favorite “f” word. I’m a bit salty. 🤬🤣😂
I love the dashboard layout. I don’t have on in Big but if they have a super neutral one for 2021 I might buy it to frankenplan for my faith planner. I love it in my classic. Sadly I haven’t gotten to film many plan with me recently bc of some personal stuff going on but I’ve been sharing on my community tab and IG for the before the pen. Love how they turn out. I think that people that use a lot of boxes for their writing and planning decor have more trouble sometimes with the dashboard because it’s already boxy and separated.
I used the Big Dashboard layout for my business planner for the first 6 months of the year. I just recently switched back to vertical for more writing space. Its difficult because the layout is so compartmentalized. I don't remember seeing and UA-cam channels using the Big Dashboard layout.
This spread was cute. I don't have a big dashboard layout but i just recently bought a big monthly layout and I am LOST. I have used every other layout and never had any problems but all this open spaces, grids, undated lists are making me panic lol. I'm trying to use them for tracking my homeschool efforts. I just wish I could get some inspiration for decorating it.
This was amazing, omg 😍😍 I use this same planner for my social media, but it definitely does not turn out this cool (I have a harder time with the left page!)
When I decorate my classic dashboard, I use scrapbook paper to cover the top left corner (in my planner they are all peachy pink). I layer colourful boxes over it and use it for the one or two things I am looking forward to that week. I use a thinner strip of the scrapbook paper to cover the header over the M-S box on the right hand page. I also like to put a border of stickers up the right edge of the right hand page. Or... use nice washi to separate the sections.
I love having a neutral dashboard so I don’t have to cover to change colors. But I use the sections there with checkboxes. I just don’t use the titles they give.
I like a lot palm and tropical leaves... I did a fruit theme a couple of weeks ago because of the song challenge and i chose the Harry Styles' song Watermelon Sugar... This can be your next challenge... Do a spread of a song theme.. can be from movies, or singer you like..
I’m doing a dog spread because the 26th is National Dog Day and I have a puggle. A quote about growing is perfect with fruit. This is cute ! 🍏🍌🍒🥝🍅🍑🍉🍎🍐🍇🥭🍆
How can I get the dashboard right side filler paper without the left one? I love the weekly side, but I use rolling tasks for the left one. Is there a video you have on that?
I use the big dashbiard planner. If I wanted anything else I had to wait 4 to 8 weeks for shipping and then I wouldve missed the whole of July and August! So any tips and ideas are always welcome. Im a happy planner newbie!
Hi I want to know where you got your happy illustrations book I am new to your channel is I just looked up happy planner ideas and I just clicked on the studio I was just wanna know where you got your illustration which book sorry if anything is misspelled or if anybody knows

@Jett Dorian Happy to help :)
I love the spread! I also love the comment to Bumble "you are embarrassing me and you are embarrassing yourself" 🤣😂
This spread is really cute. I love the combined themes. I also enjoyed Bumble making an appearance. Her barking doesn’t bother me. I think she’s a cool dog.
I love how you stopped filming to take care of the fur baby. She needed you 🥰
Love the spread. Yes would defiantly like to see more dashboard layouts, I have classic size one, so to get some ideas from you would be fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

There won’t be a video, sorry, but I’ll post a pic
I LOVE IT, please don't put yourself down and doubt yourself so much... you are fab!
So creative and always look amazing

She’s a sassy one alright

Keep us the Big Dash Board. I have been using one for my faith journal since July. Love your sarcasm 🤣💗
I use it and love it. Glad someone is finally putting out content w this layout.

Yes! more big dashboard layouts and after the pen too. You did great!
Omgoodness! Bumble was the star of this video!! So cute! Also, the spread turned out bright and beautiful as always. I love that you think out loud!
Off topic like usual lol but finally bumped up a tier and finally found the fb group link so just waiting to be excepted now 😛😛 I’m super exited! Now back to the video 😁 so far so good! I love all fruit spreads! Thanks for sharing love 😊😊
EDITED: Bumble your embarrassing me and your self 😂😂😂 that was soooo cute! Lol
I accepted you yesterday 🤗
Nervous? You rocked that dashboard spread. Do more!
The layout turned out so adorable!!! I love how you walk us through your thought process!
😍 I love it! Yes plz do more dashboard layout planning. I use the classic dashboard and get planner's block sometimes. Tfs 😊👍🏼
I am using the big dashboard layout for my daily scripture writing. Leaves plenty of room for writing and decorating
I love this!! This is my planner and I’m new - it made me feel better that you were nervous about this layout! Thank our so much for the ideas and please do more of these!!
Loved this ... and would love to see more in this big dash ... and would love to hear your opinion of using it. I love using a vertical as catch-all but may enjoy trying out a dash, too. 💚💚💚

Love this dashboard layout. Considering my new planner to be Big Dashboard. Look forward to more videos on this.
You rock! What a cute spread and on a first time big dashboard.
😍😍😍 Of course you nailed it...as if! You da 💣. Bumble (with her cute self) is telling you & Ally how she really feels🤬🤣.
I use a big horizontal but have considered switching to a dashboard layout as it seems more suitable for my needs so I'm interested in seeing more. The classic size is too small for me. I write big and I like a lot of stickers so big is perfect for me.
This is so cute! I never knew how to use all my fruit stickers except to decorate grocery lists. 😅 I definitely want to give this a try! Love the Bumble appearance, btw! 💛💛
Absolutely love this spread. Enjoyed listening to your thoughts as you plan. Always innovative!🌻
Yes, I would love to see dashboard layouts as I just switched to that layout. I LOVE LOVE LOVE everything you do!!!

Bravo! What a great spread. I think I could use a BIG dashboard. I bought a classical DB a few months back, but it was just too small for my needs.
All your spreads are so beautiful 😍. I use a classic dashboard, would love to see you do more dashboard layouts. 😊
My dog always barks and whines if we are outside without her. 😂
Adorable spread!
I was about to say me, me, me but I do classic size dashboard on my channel. I use the Homebody Classic planner. You have given inspiration of what to do on my spread for September. Thank you for sharing!
I love this! Makes me want to buy all those sticker books! Very creative!
Love the spread 😍 and Bumble my Luna would be just the same x
I use a Big Dashboard and LOVE it! I haven’t gotten super fancy with my planning yet though.
So so glad to see this! This is the layout I use and I have been so waiting to see you do this!
I use the classic dashboard and have a few videos showing how I decorate it. It’s my favorite layout.
I love this spread! It's my girls' last week of summer vacation so I think I'm going to use this for Inspo I couldn't decide what to do in my classic dashboard this week.
That's cute. I've been in the Homebody planner(classic) all year. It's tricky but it works well and I'm considering going to a big dashboard for next year... Yes more please... It's so hard to find good inspiration
This turned out gorgeous! Love the colour combo xx
Mary Ellen, your layouts are always so neat!! I'm fairly new to all of this, my layouts look so stupid!! eek!!
Mary Ellen I love how this spread turned out. It’s different but so cute💗!!!!
This might be Detailed Florals. I was loving my mini dash for my weight tracking planner so thought more room would be good. Nope.

I have an old pug, what's a puggle?
This spread turned out super cute!! I need to get some more sticker books I think! 😁
Yes, please, more dashboard layouts.
I would love more original happy planner dashboard layout!
I have wanted a big dashboard spread to add into my big planner but I wish I could find the big layouts more neutral
That looks so pretty 👍🏻
Which happy planner is that? I love the cover
How can I get the dashboard right side filler paper without the left one? I love the weekly side, but I use rolling tasks for the left one. Is there a video you have on that?
Very cute spread!
So ... do you have any videos where you actually have stickers on all 10 fingers at once? 😻😻😻
No but I’m sure it’s coming 😂
@@PlanningwithBumble 😹😹😹
I prefer the dashboard, I find it more useful. Difficult to decorate, yes! But more useful 😅
Yes, I’d love to see morn dashboard pls with me’s.
Yes I would love to see you do more dashboards big dashboards. I use a big dashboard I'm on Instagram as big plans from Texas
I like the big dashboard layout. I don't care for fruit, but it turned out really cool.
It turned out so freaking cute!!!! You did an amazing job! I haven’t seen any big dashboard spreads tbh, but if I do I’ll tag you on ig!
Mary Ellen you should try doing a spread of fairies
would love to see you do this in pink!
I use the big dashbiard planner. If I wanted anything else I had to wait 4 to 8 weeks for shipping and then I wouldve missed the whole of July and August! So any tips and ideas are always welcome. Im a happy planner newbie!
Nice spread. TFS.
I use the grid for a habit tracker
Love this!
