How to print your own planner inserts
To make sure your artwork looks its best, and that you have the best planning experience possible, remember these two things when you print your planner pages:
- Use a nicer, “premium” printer paper, not cheap copy paper or cardstock. I’m currently using HP 32# bright white paper for my printables for bright, professional looking results. Cardstock is fine for divider pages and cover pages, but you don’t need to use it for every page. It adds unnecessary bulk to your planner and images typically aren’t as nice and bright. To see the 32 lb bright white paper paper in use, visit this post on the best paper for planner inserts. I tested the same floral planner printable pages on five different types of paper so you can see which paper brings you the best results. 2. Make sure the pages print at 100% size for the Happy Planner Classic and US letter sizes, unless you’re scaling them down on purpose to fit another planner system. The artwork and functional planner boxes are positioned to fit inside standard print margins. Programs will sometimes default to scaling the Happy Planner pages up to fill the entire page. Double check before printing to make sure sure you’re printing at actual size or 100% size. Your print dialogue box should look similar to the screenshot below (page shown is from the February planer printable set):
How to use letter sized planner pages
It’s easy to use letter sized planner pages in a 3 ring binder or Happy Planner Big. Just print, punch, and enjoy. Please note that the letter pages are not an exact match for the big Happy Planner box sizes.
How to print and trim Happy Planner Classic inserts
The Happy Planner insert pages are not scaled down versions of the letter size. I am personally a Happy Planner Classic user. That’s why the Happy Planner boxes are the correct size for your HPC stickers.
The printable planner stickers I make are also sized for Happy Planner Classic, so be sure to grab free printable vertical flag checklists and free printable gratitude stickers for your new March planner!
First, print your pages. As described above, make sure to print at 100% size.
Trim your printed pages along the light grey dotted line. This line is exactly the right size for HPC inserts, so cut directly on the line.
I recommend using a paper cutter or trimmer (not scissors) for quick, clean results. I use a Fiskar’s paper trimmer with a guide wire, as seen in the video below featuring the October planner pages:
A guillotine-style paper cutter is faster than a sliding paper trimmer. If you hold the pages firmly, you can cut through multiple sheets at a time. I don’t use mine often because I’m scared to have it out when my three year old is around.
Next, hole punch your Happy Planner pages using your Happy Planner punch. I’ve noticed this punch goes in and out of stock frequently.
Finally, insert the pages in your planner and enjoy!
How to print letter sized printables for other planners
You can print letter sized pages to scale and trim them to fit other planner sizes. Use the planner sizing chart below as your guide:

March printable planner insert kit
Printable stickers are an easy way to beautiful your planner and make it more functional. You do not need to own a cutting machine or sticker maker to use printable stickers. Discover more about the benefits of printable stickers and how to cut stickers without a cutting machine. The goals pages are my own creation and don’t have a direct correlation to any official Happy Planner page that I know of. They can help you set and actually achieve your weekly and daily goals. If setting and achieving goals is challenging for you, be sure to visit this post on how to set weekly goals that work. See a preview of each planner page by watching the video below. The pages shown are from the letter-sized planner printables. The Happy Planner pages are very similar. Here’s a preview of the sticker sheets. Three pages are sized for Happy Planner Classic. You could use these in your letter-sized pages, but you’ll have some white space left in each box. This March planner kit is available for the very low price of $2.99.
