Handwritten notes template

The yellow legal pad, the blue biro and the hurried list. Type your to-dos and get a page that looks torn off a real pad.

Notes are written at speed, so the hand here is compressed and slightly slanted with high jitter — the shorthand version of your handwriting rather than your best one.

Legal pad stock is thirstier than printer paper, so ballpoint ink warms slightly against the yellow and the line thickens where the pen paused.

Ideal for mock-ups, social posts and anywhere a typed list would look sterile.
