Creative plans for 2025

Well it’s a new year and time to put my intentions for the year out there into the world.

Crafting Goals

more junk journaling
Doing Junk Journal January, Junk Journal July and Messy May. I’m not worried if I don’t do every prompt. Sometimes the prompts just don’t call to you.
More Awesome Ladies projects.
100 Happy Days 2025
Fat Mum Slim’s Photo-A-Day
Memory planning. I’m a patreon of My Abiding Journal and she does a monthly journaling club. I followed along last year but never created anything. This year I’m giving it a go. You can check out the post about the Journaling Club here. I may continue doing Stop the Blur but I didn’t do any last year beyond digital journaling and collecting photos.
Recognising hockey season is my least creative time of the year. Especially now that we’re doing 3 days a week of games plus training.

Blogging goals

Posting more often. yeah I say that every year. Hopefully this year will be different.
Awesome Ladies updates – what’s happening over at the Awesome Ladies
What I’ve been making – this will be about specific projects or creations.

Running a bit late with this as we got hit with the Covid bug on Good Friday and gradually went down one by one and now all 4 of us have had it, the youngest is the only one still with it. Lucky it was just a mild case but still yuck no the less.

Onto the March monthly review for 2024. You can find previous monthly reviews here.

100 Day Project – Day 21-30

And another 10 days. Wow I’ve made it to 30 days!

More Women’s History Month Daily Pages. I’m doing mine in Canva and will print it and bind it into a book when I’ve finished.

I’m creating a page about each of women on the list and then another page with an inspiring quote by that woman. So no pictures as yet.

And another break to do more art with the eldest. This time it was grid journal pages. Went with a steam punk theme.

100 Day Project – Day 11-20

Onto the next 10 days of my 100 Day Project. For this block I finished the ALP Spring Orientation, took a side quest of doing some art with the oldest and started on Women’s History Month Daily pages.
