I really love vibrant colors and these Pansies Transfers are so pretty!
I’ve been really loving these transfers because they are so flat! I really need to incorporate them into a card.

Lunar new year is happening this week and it’s not like New Years where it’s just a celebration on New Year’s Eve ringing in the new year. It lasts for quite a bit and I love it.
I had to pull out TheCoffeeMonsterZCo’s Large LNY 2025 Doodles to decorate my week for the Year of the Snake paired with the Chinese Zodiac Emotis washi tape. I also had to pull out my gold pen for some elements of gold and red throughout!

My theme for the week — hobbies! I’m using TheCoffeeMonsterZCo’s Happy Hobbies washi to decorate my planner this week because, well, the tiktok ban is in full effect and whether it’s permanent or temporary, life goes on.
Here’s the little video of it! And of course, I realized I forgot to add

Washi is a staple in the planner world and I have tons of it. I collected early in my planner years, buying pretty often and randomly. I put a pause on collecting more for a bit of time to use up them up but of course, that lasted only for a little bit.
I’ve grown more mindful of using my washi and I like to stretch the use when I can — on cards, on my planners. Here, I used it by cutting out the little emotis for each of the dates. This is something I started doing last year and found it really fun, making for an easy spread.

I’m starting to really fall in love with these transfer stickers — they are so thin and they are easy to apply making a planner spread so quick and easy. I actually love pulling up the transparent sheet to revealed that transferred image. I, especially, love these florals.
I added a few lines to create a border for my florals to enclose them. I think it makes it so pretty and adds a little extra to the simple decor.

This past year, I walked away from a bullet journal set up because it was really time consuming (even though super fun) paired with my card making. In this year, I tested out a doodle planner, which had everything set up for me and I could just color and fill it in — I didn’t love it because it didn’t allow for much creative freedom outside of picking what colors to use. Then I saw a sale for Sterling Ink and it had the vibes of a Hobonichi, which I’ve wanted to test out to see if I’d like it. Suffice to say, I LOOOOOOVED it.
Fast forward, to October, when I was in Japan, I decided to pick up the Hobonichi and I’m trying to commit to it this year! The idea of daily journaling is a bit scary as I’m not a particularly exciting person and I am a total homebody but it’s a goal of mine in this coming year to turn the mundane into fun memories. In my past bujo spreads, sometimes, I’ll use the same elements to create cards — stretching supplies — and I kinda want to incorporate that this year too because I’ve felt I’ve been in a bit of a slump with card making as well.
Anyway, here it is — my first week setup in my A5 Hobonichi HON, where it’s set up for me but I’m allowed some creative freedom to decorate. I’ll follow up with another snippet if I do make a matching card.

I struggled thinking about my theme this month and I settled on this one because I wanted to motivate myself into reading a bit more. I’ve been reading but I want to do so more.
Be sure to come back weekly to check out how I set up my planner spread for each week… I use the same stamps but it’s a different layout.
WEEK 23

I’ve always been the type of person to write things down – I just remember them better. I have been pretty consistent using a planner over the past few years and searching for this thing called planner peace. For me, a dotted notebook is the best choice because I can customize it however I want. Yes, it definitely takes a bit of effort to set it up but I have all these stationary and cardmaking supplies that help me along the way.
This year, I chose the Sassy Dots notebook — this B6 sized notebook is a smaller size than my normal A6 but I think it works really well since sometimes I feel like I just don’t fill up all my pages (and honestly, you don’t have to). BUT the best part of this notebook is that it is copic friendly — yep, you read that right. You can use your copic markers and there’s absolutely no bleed through!
This isn’t a traditional monthly spread but it’s what I think will work for me and as always, I can tweak it as the year goes on since every month is a fresh blank page.
I’ll be sharing my weekly spreads here, each week for the month of January and I hope you enjoy it!
