It's brand new bullet journal time and I'm ready to collage my little heart out! I'm going with a soft, fresh and foliage-adorned theme for the beginning of my new notebook, with some slick thermal-printed accents.

I loved the paint journal for a change but my heart lies in your scrapbooking way of journaling! All of your themes always look beautiful but the scrapbooking way is much more inspirational for me because it gives me new ideas and I don’t want to ruin my STM journal with paint!

As I started my first journal in September for the start of school my journal still tend to start around then even though I’m no longer in school so I find these mid year set up cos they give me inspiration at the time I’m actually looking for it. I actually am planning to start setting my new journal up currently even though I won’t finish my current one for a few months cos it tends to take me a long time and I know I will be very busy during the month I think my journal will need to swap.

I've been working my way through your back catalogue of videos because I love your style, especially the collage spreads, and even more so the fantasy inspired themes. This one is beautiful though, especially the muted colour scheme, and I love the dots you used on the first page, I'm so going to use that idea! I'm also not sure if I should thank you, or curse you, for introducing me to London Gifties. Kristine's washi/PET tapes are gorgeous, and there are so many I want, particularly the window themed ones; I'm obsessed!! I'm having to buy a couple every month to make it affordable, but at least being UK based postage isn't crazy!😂

Do you happen to have a link to the journal that you moved your ‘cash flow tracker’ too? Im looking for a smaller journal to contain my August-December spreads and feel like that could be perfect!! Thank you!!

@ErinSmith 27 күн бұрын

Mine was from a subscription box, so sadly Archer & Olive don’t sell that one specifically anymore, but it’s a ‘travellers notebook’ or ‘TN’ size which should help you on your hunt! They have some in different styles, so I’ll link you to the A&O ones but some other brands also make them, I think! If you prefer the ratio of an A5 journal, Notebook Therapy also make an ‘original size’ Tsuki journal that is a bit smaller than A5 too, but not as narrow as the TN journals. www.archerandolive.com/en-au/collections/notebooks?filter.v.price.gte=&filter.v.price.lte=&filter.v.m.custom.notebook_size=TN+%284.33x8.25%29&sort_by=created-descending

Hi Erin. Love your videos and I have been experimenting with stamping but have found it very messy. Is there a good ink to use with stamps that doesn't smudge easily? What do you use? Not giving up yet!

@ErinSmith 15 күн бұрын

Hi Angela! I’ve had similar experiences with stamp ink so more often than not, I just use paint markers or juicy water based pens instead. As long as your stamp isn’t so big that the paint marker/pen ink dries on it before you’re finished scribbling on the stamp surface, you should get pretty good results! No more inky fingers 😉

@LilRobsDayzee21 Ай бұрын

Erin, your videos are very informative to a new journal enthusiast. I absolutely love your sense of style and the easy looks of your layouts. I was interested in getting the phomemo and almost bought one a few weeks ago, however i opted to get an inkjet printer instead. I'm still quite interested in purchasing a phomemo but not sure how to do what you did with canva on it if i were to get one. In your opinion, since I already have a printer, should i stick to what i have and get clear sticker paper or should I invest in getting the phomemo m02 pro? I'm working with a tight budget and if I'm able to do what you're currently doing the phomemo on my inkjet, that would save me some money. Just curious. Thank you so much for the videos and the constant insight on journaling.

@ErinSmith Ай бұрын

That’s such a good question! My advice would be to stick with your inkjet printer. The Phomemos are cool, but any thermal-printed media will fade over time. Your inkjet prints will last much longer! I’ve never looked into clear sticker paper but I’m sure it exists - you might just need to let your ink dry for a while before you cut things out to go in your journal!

@LilRobsDayzee21 Ай бұрын

@@ErinSmith Thank you for such a quick response. I'm so glad you got back to me about the thermal. You just saved me money and the worry about what I should do. I downloaded Canva earlier today and started messing with some of the templates. It will take some time to get used to the app since this is my first time ever trying to do anything of this nature. If you have any tips or suggestions regarding the app, I'm open to it. I'm still trying to figure out how and where you were able to get the calendar templates on there to put in my journal. I'm also wondering if you may be able to make a video, or already have one, of different types of layouts for the habit trackers. Again, thank you so very much. Between you and Jess Corrin, I'm sure my monthly layouts will continue to get better and better. Happy Journaling!

@ErinSmith 29 күн бұрын

Canva has some calendar templates built-in - I think I just chose its boldest version, changed all the colours to black (which is a thermal printer limitation - no colour!) and used white rectangles to cover any parts I didn’t need 🤣 it was a while ago, I don’t totally remember! There are some excellent Canva resources already out there, I’m not sure my knowledge is comprehensive enough for a video - to be honest I mostly use it for making my video thumbnails! 😅
