This month over at The Lollipop Box Club Chat it is all about making and sending Happy mail, so I just had to get involved. Who doesn't love receiving lovely stationery and snail mail in the post?

I have mainly used the September Lollipop Box Kit and it is a stunner!

I might not have been able to create a full travel journal this year, but I did still manage to do some creative journaling to document my summer, even if most of my original summer plans were cancelled or put on hold.

I haven't made any journal cards for a while, so I thought it was time to create some new ones from scratch. I have used the May Lollipop Box Kit, Alice's Tea Party. It's perfect for the task and includes so many goodies and beautiful papers.

Hi all, today I thought it would be nice to create some 'happy mail' goodies, including decorative envelopes and mixed media tags. I know we can't all get to a post office at the minute, but these can be saved to use after we come out of lockdown.

I have used the gorgeous goodies from the April Lollipop Box entitled 'My Secret Garden'. I love this month's box so much, so vibrant and fresh for Spring and just what we need to cheer ourselves up during isolation.

I thought I would try something different this week: Concertina Jacobs ladder style journaling cards to be placed in a tin. These make perfect gifts for Mothers Day or Valentines Day. I wanted to make my sister something to document her year. She has just moved in to a new house with her boyfriend and I thought these would be perfect for adding a quick photo or comment to for each month.

I had a fantastic year in 2019 and I am keen to maintain that into 2020 in both my journaling and personal achievements. It makes sense therefore that my Word of the Year for 2020 should be just that... 'Maintain'.  I want to start the year with some positive journaling and mindfulness; start the year as I mean to go on.

​Today I'm sharing my 'Not So' December Daily pages in my Christmas Planner that I created using the November Festive themed Lollipop Box Kit. Have a quick planner peek of my memory keeping and creative journal pages and spreads so far.

"So here it is Merry Christmas, everybody's having fun"... ok, ok it's not quite here yet, but I'm so ready for it. ​

I thought I would try something totally different today (for me anyway)... making my own paper paperclips.  The finished result is definitely a triumph and I will be making more, they are perfect for your planners and journals or as a cute gift.

I have used a variety of different papers that came in this months Lollipop Box. These papers are actually perfect for this craft as they are just the right thickness. (Disclaimer: I received this box as part of my Creative Team role).
