Getting ready for March in my bulletjournal and some different freebies

Hello friends, hope you are keeping warm and happy.
I have been busy setting up the new March pages for my bullet journal.

March cover and gratitude page

Setting up a new month always takes quite a bit of time, and this month I decided to take a few shortcuts: I spent a happy afternoon painting a leaf wreath with watercolous only. I then scanned that page and use it to decorate all of my March pages. I did it for two reasons, - to save time, but also because I have found it more and more frustrationg that any watercolour or pen work directly in the journal, bleeds through the thin pages of my Leuchtturm journal. This is a well know phenomenon and the bulletjournal communty calls it ghosting.

I did a few original drawings still, but mostly just used my scans.

Here you can see the original scanned painting, which I resized and used on the various following pages.

My weekly spread for the for this week, transitioning from February into March.

My monthly spread. The top here is the only other original drawing I did, I tried to match the clours but used pencils rather than watercolours. (They still ghosted through somewhat).

Monthly habit tracker with a bit of doodling to the side of the wreath.

Blogging schedule and keeping track of my spending (usually way too much specially on craft)

And finally keeping track of my house hold spending and tasks.

If any of you are into planners or journals like these, you are welcome to download this little wreath as a freebie. I'll add it in three different versions below.

Just print it on your printer's best setting (I used glossy paper)

You can resize them to your own needs of course in any photediting programme.

Well, that's it for now and like always thank you so much for taking the time to visit, I really appreciate it.

Tag winners and a quote page

Hello friend and thanks for dropping in! Thank you for all your kind comments on my tags on Valentines day. !2 of you acually specifically stated you would like to get one, so I decided to use random org to sellct two winners, so here goes:

Number 9 Again, counting down, that is Candy C.

Ladies, if you let me know your addresses they shall be on the way to you shortly 😍

Alright, now for a little new project sharing: As I am trying to become better at lettering, I like to create a lettered quote in my bullet journal every now and so often, so here is the lates page I did:

I found this quote and lettering style on Pinterest and copied it, just in different colours. I used my Prisma Premier softcore pencils for the letters and Gelatos for the background.

Wished I'd kept the background simpler as the whole page has become too busy, but like usual, live and learn, that's what this whole journey is about isn't it?

Anyway, hope you are having a good week, and like always, thanks for your visit!
