that actually helps a lot! I have and use templates for so many things but hadn't realized how helpful they would be to break through my how-to-start paralysis with nature journaling.

Thank you and yes, I think it can be used in different ways to hopefully take away the intimidation of that empty page☺️❤️

This was so helpful. I have started a sketch journal which includes everyday items as well as nature and plants from my garden. Using shapes to plan pages is a wonderful idea as I usually start by adding one sketch and randomly add more to fill the page. This will also help to create focal points and help plan where to place journaling and titles. Your video is much appreciated.

So glad if it helps you in any way! For me, seeing the shapes before I sketch does help with the overall composition…thanks so much for watching and commenting 😊

Hello. This is very helpful. I have a question about the large text at the top of the page. Did you do that free hand? I appreciate your instruction and sharing your beautiful journal.

@mynaturediaries4402

Thanks so much! I lay down a guide line and freehand the text in pencil first. I’ve been doing this type of lettering for years so it’s a simple thing for me now. I do have to learn other types of lettering though so I practice those😊

Would different size and color-post it notes work? You could cut them but keep the sticky part? Just thinking out loud….

I don’t know for sure but it sounds like an idea to try…a nature journal is a great place to experiment with art! 😄
