I finally saw the difference in my weekly spreads after I stopped using washi tape

For about 6 months I was going crazy with washi tape borders and stickers on every page, but last month I tried a totally minimal spread with just black pen and a gray highlighter. My brain actually feels calmer looking at it and I can find stuff faster since there's less visual noise. Has anyone else noticed a big shift when they stripped down their journal layout?

Washi tape gives it personality though, plain spreads feel dead.

Nathana48 gets it. Plain spreads can look like you forgot to finish them. A little tape makes it feel intentional instead of empty.

Ngl my spreads looked like a glitter bomb exploded on them.
