My Favorite Things Junk Journal

The fun I am having with the documentation of a few of my favorite things in a mixed paper journal has been the best answer to these February blahs. It has been exciting for me to pop a journal prompt on a page and play with my paper scraps and all those bits and baubles of kits I have in the shop but never make the time to play with myself.

Well, not any more. I'm using "the good stuff" because I'm worth it.

A FEW OF MY FAVORITES, JOURNALED

You can catch up with all my favorites journaled by following this hashtag: #myfavoritethingsjunkjournal on Instagram. I go into detail each day on why I used what I used and how I hacked it to make it work on my page.

Now, grab your favorite journal, the printable prompts...and just do it!

TODAY IN MY FIELD NOTES GRATITUDE JOURNAL

Celebrating my creative journey and all the joy it brings me. And I have been loving using this set of word phrases as inspiration and journal prompts in my journal projects lately, I trimmed out the word create to get me going today.

And I'm also celebrating Day 51 of my creative challenge to myself to Gratitude Journal every single day this year. See all my gratitude journal posts thus far here.

Travelers notebooks are a perfect fit for all the printable journaling cards in the shop, this is the set I'm using below, and also for printable ephemera...I used vellum for the foliage branch in the last photo. Find the printable tags that include the word "thrive" here. 

WHAT IS #ILOVETHURSDAYTHANKS

What is #ilovethursdaythanks? It's a way for me, and you, to connect with other like minded souls. Those of us that find joy in documenting our thankful thoughts and grateful moments. Those moments that sometimes could be so quickly forgotten, those thoughts that haunt us and won't let us go, those words that touched our heart when we needed them most, those people who made a difference just by being there.

Join us over on Instagram and share your #ilovethursdaythanks.

A FEW JOURNALS TO GET YOU STARTED

I'm a fan of lists, of mini books and telling my right now story. That's a phrase I coined way back when Kam sent out a survey asking participants what 30 Lists meant to them.

Find all the Mixed Paper Journals in the shop to choose your favorite, but here are just a few of them:

All of these mini book journals come with fun, colorful embellishment kits to help jumpstart your creative mojo.

IF YOU'RE MORE OF A TRAVELERS NOTEBOOK FAN

I have listed several times in plain paper notebooks and enjoyed it just as much. There's a different mindset going into a journal where there are no limits or patterns or preconceived ideas.

Here are a two notebook sets, I'll be adding a few more this week that will include embellishment kits, too.

The Beauty of Becoming

We Still Hope

We believe, we work, we pray about our situation and our goals, but somehow, we still sometimes place our eggs into the "hope" basket. In this great big world, some days hope is what gets me through even after all my believing and working and praying. And I'm okay with that.

I’ve revamped my weekly quote series to focus on a different theme each month and February’s theme is HOPE.  Visit with me every week for more inspiration and motivation for The Sunday Quote.
