summer stories

Hey Lovelies! It’s been awhile since I shared a new video on my Youtube channel. But I recently finished my Summer Stories journal and wanted to share a flip through of it. I originally created this journal with two signatures, but when my first signature became increasingly chunky, I decided to take out the second one and create a whole new journal for it for October and November journaling. I…

Hey Lovelies! It’s been awhile since I shared anything. To be honest, I haven’t been creating like I used to nowadays. It’s been interesting. I have been journaling loads though, but often not creatively. But I sat down recently to create this spread in my Summer Stories journal, responding to a prompt from Juni Desireé’s August Keepsake Journal prompts. Juni kindly reached out to me last month asking if I…

Hello Lovelies. For day 7 of Junk Journal July, I altered a security envelope and decorated a few polaroids I took of flowers on Little Island. I used a mixture of paper scraps I had in this little bowl I keep on my desk. I really love the patchwork look of this altered envelope. I tried to mimic that feel with the polaroids took. So I took these photos with my…

Hello Lovelies. I started catching up on Essie’s Junk Journal July livestreams recently and they got me wanting to jump right in and make a few pages based on the prompts myself! Not that I need yet another project to do—especially when I don’t have the time to do any of my other projects—but you know me! I decided to make it way easier on myself, I would just do the prompts in…

Hello Lovelies. I finally got around to documenting my time so far working for Little Island—a “floating” park here in NYC that recently opened. I had A LOT to process through my journaling and while this journaling feel more like a frustration thought dump, I’m still rather pleased with myself that I could get all of that down on paper. It’s been a huge learning experience this little full time…

Hello Lovelies. I just wanted to share a few new pages in my Summer Stories journal. I finally got around to documenting a weekend trip to Connecticut with my guy to visit his parents and see his kitties, who are now staying with his mom. I had a few square Instax polaroids I took while we were there that I wanted to include, so I created this little spread in…

Hello Lovelies. I just wanted to share my introduction pages in my new Summer Stories journal. If you know me, you know how much I love introducing my journals. I don’t know what it is, but I enjoy starting things and I like dedicating the first few pages of my journal to an introduction. I treat these intro pages as “my reasons why” of sorts. I find that it sets…

Hello Lovelies. I wanted to share a little look at my brand new journal. I made another A6 journal that I’m planning on using to memory keep in. So, I’ve sort of abandoned my 6×8 scrapbook for this year. I haven’t documented anything in it for a long while now. While working in my little A6 journals last weekend it hit me how much I really like this little format.…
