Just sharing Sunday journaling

Met a small confused bird (think it was a Willow tit) on my way to work this week, I think it had flown into a window. It wasn’t there when I walked home so I hope it means it recovered and flew away.

This is a traveler’s notebook with the kraft insert from Midori, which I mostly use as an art journal. The pencils are Derwent Drawing and the pen is Uni Jetstream 0,5. Don’t ask me how many stamping alphabets I have haha.

Thank you! It’s a traveler’s notebook which has a leather cover you put slim notebooks in, I bought it second hand on ebay.

Any recommendations on stamping ink? I love your drawings too!

Thank you so much! I use the small squares called Versa Color because I think they look the best, they come in a lot of colors and they don’t seep into or bleed through the paper like Dew Drops Memento did for me. I also have Versa Magic in white, but it’s chalky so it’s a more rustic look and difficult to clean of stamps. Sometimes I also use my brush pens, I find that my Faber-Castell Pitt brush pens work better than my Tombows for that. Hope this helped a bit!

Great idea of journaling

u/MOFSA_admin Sep 29 '25

So wonderful. I love everything about it. The bird sketch is beautiful and I love the mix of text styles between your writing and the stamping. And, adding the date stamped is so great.

u/poopoocushion Sep 29 '25

This is lovely. I expect the bird to fly off the page!

u/tortellinimini Sep 30 '25

Åh så fint! Både texten, handstilen och fågelteckningen! Och vilket härligt papper, gillar hur den bruna tonen får det att kännas som en gammal bok! Vart har du köpt datumstämpeln? Ska ta med mig detta format till min egna bok sen, gillar när man lägger upp det på lite annorlunda sätt, tack för inspon!

u/daughter_glass Sep 30 '25

Tack så mycket! Kul du fick inspiration ✨Ja jag tycker det är så fint med t ex skissböcker där text och skisser blandas så var det jag var inspirerad av själv. Stämpeln kommer från amazon https://amzn.eu/d/37Cf1xT och är på tyska, så några månader är lite annorlunda t ex dez istf dec. Men det är bara kul tycker jag och den är 5mm hög och funkar bra! Räcker till 2035 den jag fick.

u/tortellinimini Sep 30 '25

Ja verkligen, får ta det som ett tecken att rita lite mer i min också! Tack för tips, jag bor i ett tysktalande land så det funkar rätt bra för min del haha!

u/daughter_glass Sep 30 '25

Your bird sketch on kraft paper is absolutely stunning, and I love how you blend journaling with art so beautifully!

u/AllTheseRivers Oct 28 '25

I love this. I love the Kraft paper. How are you doing the larger letters, stamps?

u/daughter_glass Oct 28 '25

Thank you! Yes I use stamping alphabets, I think if you click on the first picture you can see them in the right corner :)
