Summer sticky note widget

What a summer sticky note widget shows

A sticky note widget holds a few words you need to see: a shopping list, a reminder, a phone number. It works best short, with a bold title and three or four lines.

Type the note straight into a Text layer, or keep notes in WidgetCraft's Tasks, notes & habits section and show them with the Saved notes list. Both are free, stay on the phone and need no permission.

How the summer style shapes it

Summer widgets are bright and warm: turquoise sea, coral, sunshine yellow and white, with bold friendly type. Good for holiday countdowns and step goals.

• Text: Use deep teal text.

How to make a summer sticky note widget in WidgetCraft

1. Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 200 × 200, the background to #E8FBFF and the corner radius to 26.
2. Add a Shape 52 × 16 at the top center in #FF6B5E at 75% opacity, like a strip of tape, and rotate it 2°.
3. Add a Text layer for the title at size 20 in #0B3C49 using Quicksand.
4. Add a second Text layer for the note, one item per line, at size 15 with line spacing 1.7. To show notes you keep in the app instead, add Saved notes.
5. Add thin Shape rules under each line in #5E99A6 at 30% opacity for a ruled-paper look.
6. Add the summer ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a yellow sun (circle) in the top right and a wavy lagoon-blue band along the bottom.
7. Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.
