NOTE 032 - July 2019 Journal Highlights + Flip Through

I have my July 2019 journal highlights & flip through for this post!

I hope you guys can find some journaling ideas & inspiration from this post!

So let's get right to it!

I had a lot of fun experimenting with layering for July!

One of my favorites ways to do this is with washi tape.

So doing what I call "stacking" where I just stick washi tape down beside

each other like above. As you can see from the photo above, I cut

out those leaves from a washi tape, then I kind placed them in a curved pattern.

I then placed the clock sticker on top to cover the bottom of the leaves.

For this spread, I was trying to kinda make it look like a desk area.

So the clock on the wall, the typewriter & lamp on the desk, & I tried

to make it look like the stamp washi was paintings hung on the wall.

I really like how it turned out!

I actually have a journal with me video for this spread!

Check that out if you would like to!

I've really been into bullet journal style spreads lately.

So I made this spread a "gratitude" spread.

I layered washi tapes, stamps, & stickers in this spread.

I didn't finish #4 because I wanted it to be more personal.

The one sticker I wrote on was made out of a slick material.

So I accidentally smudged the ink & it never dried.

I ended up putting clear tape on it, & that did the trick!

This spread is my pink spread!

I played with layering a lot in this spread!

One thing I do when layering is using white backgrounds for washi tape & stickers.

I stick the washi tape or washi sticker to a plain piece of paper & cut it out.

This is so the back is white since most washi tapes & stickers are

transparent. This is fun for making designs with washi tape as well!

I love how the colors turned out!

I love this spread! It may be one of my favorites!

I tried to make it look like a street with gardens. Perfect for reading in!

That is why I made an "Adventure Playlist." Reading a book is like an adventure.

So I thought it was fitting.

I used a lot of washi tape for the background in this spread, but it

was still a very simple spread.

I played with layering in this spread too!

I think all of them are that way hehe!

I did some fussy cutting with washi tape in this spread.

I cut out the little hanging stars, which turned out super cute!

A lot of these journal spreads I didn't completely fill out yet.

But I usually come back to them.

I have noticed that I am really liking a more kawaii style lately.

There is nothing wrong with that! We will see for August!

How did our July go? Let me know in the comments!
