Journal July: finance tracker

Get a handle on your finances with your own budget planner

Ever find yourself running short of cash towards the end of the month? To help you keep a regular check on your finances, it can be really useful to keep a budget diary, provided you always remember to fill it in. There’s no denying that designing a journal finance tracker is a world away from boring old book-keeping. You’ll have fun creating a personalised page spread with lists of income and expenses, and anything else you think is relevant. Fineliners are particularly good for making lists and columns as well as decorative illustrations and doodles. When it comes to embellishing the pages, we recommend edding 1300 colour pens. With a choice of 40 colours available, you’re bound to find your favourites among them. A DIY finance tracker helps you keep your eye on the ball – and at the end of the month it might even help you identify areas where you can make savings.
