christmas journal 2019 ✨

Hello there 2019 (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o))). Another year for new adventures and journaling but before we dive into the new ones let me share this one first. Today’s post is about a Holiday Challenge by KailaofRainbowholic where she put up a series of prompts.

This was a fun way to fill up your journals for the holiday season. This was my first time doing such challenges as well because I never tried any prompts yet since I officially started with my journals last year. Anyways so here are some of the pages I made :

 TITLE PAGE + 5 THINGS I LOVE ABOUT CHRISTMAS / DECEMBER

By the way I wasn’t using my Hobonichi on this challenge because way before I knew about this I already decided to have a separate Christmas Journal.

 CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS IN MY COUNTRY AND FAMILY

Actually we are not a celebrant type. As a family of 3 members (Me, Mama and Papa), a few food will do for us. へ‿(ツ)‿ㄏ

 A LIST OF GIFTS THAT YOU CAN GIVE (INTAGIBLE)

Sometimes, gift giving is not just about the material things but it can also be feelings that you can share to other people.

 12 THINGS I WANT MY TRUE LOVE TO GIVE TO ME

I’m not quite sure about this category actually because I don’t know what they meant by “true love” (because what if you don’t have a boyfriend or girlfriend). Anyways so I think this prompt was more about any true loves you have. It could be your family, parents, or friends.

 MY TOP 3 FAVORITE KAWAII CHARACTERS OF 2018

If you have been following me since stone-age you know how I adore Rilakkuma so definitely any year he’s on my top list.

 WASHI-FIED CHRISTMAS TREE ARTSY PAGE

Well I have a confession to make, this was my least favorite prompts that I made. Not that I don’t like Christmas Trees but I know that I made a horrible one. I wasn’t in the mood for this and my creativeness was just at it’s lowest.

 DEAR SANTA PAGE

This was a fun page for me and this was also the time when I discovered that Copics are good for coloring glossy sticker papers. Hmmm good to know. Anyways, did you ever wrote to Santa when you were small? Me? Honestly I never wrote anything. I don’t know why but I did believe in Santa Claus, I wasn’t just so hype to send him letters before.

 KAWAII SNOWMAN PAGE

One of my favorite pages~ and I love making the Journal With Me video of this one.

 MY MOST MEMORABLE GIFT (CHRISTMAS SOCK DESIGN)

Indeed a very special gift to me. This was a journal made by the daughter of one of my clients in Riyadh as a farewell gift for me. I got her inspired into doing journals because everyday she would see me do my own as well. I felt so proud and accomplished to have an influence over someone about your passions in life. She was a child (6 years old) so it makes me even happier, at least I influenced her with something that might be useful in the future. Isn’t a great achievement?

 LOOKING BACK : TOP 3 FAVORITE MEMORIES OF 2018

The Grassland Trek was an awesome experience~

 A LETTER TO MY SELF ( CURRENT AND FUTURE)

This prompt has a nice touch because writing to yourself is like having someone to remind you especially the future letter. It would be exciting to someday reread this letters. ˭̡̞(◞⁎˃ᆺ˂)◞*✰

 WHAT YEAR 2018 HAS TAUGHT ME

There’s more to this actually but this are the more significant ones for me. What about you?

 LOFTY DREAMS AND HOPEFUL WISHES FOR 2019

So that concludes all of my Holiday Challenges for last year (it sounds so long ago XD). 2018 has been a total roller coaster ride for me even up until the very last minutes of it. I learned so much and cried a lot lol but life has always been tough we just need to be tougher. I hope you are all having a great start for 2019. Lets be hopeful for a brighter and happier year and I’ll see you in my next post.
