Mood-boosting ideas for your journal

Habits that make you happy!

Often, it’s the little things in life that make us happiest and give us a much-needed boost - like reading a good book with a cup of tea in hand, for example, or snatching a quick lunchtime nap. It’s good to try and remember these daily mood-boosting habits, and this journaling idea is a nice way to help you keep track of the positive moments in your day. Use edding glitter brush pens for added sparkle!

Пошаговая инструкция

Шаг 1

For this journalling idea, you will need a selection of edding 1340 glitter brush pens in your favourite colours, plus a black edding 1800 profipen for the outlines and finer lines. A copy of our template is available for you to download and print. Each symbol is designed to represent something that makes you happy, but you can also create your own symbols that are personal to you.

Шаг 2

If the pages of your journal are relatively thin, place the template under the page and trace the design straight into your journal using a pencil. Once you’ve done that, go back over the words and symbols using your black profipen. Next, use your profipen to cover the bottom half of your page with a series of wavy lines going in all directions and crossing over each other.

Шаг 3

Colour in the symbols in different colours using your glitter brush pens. Remember to hold the nib nice and flat to produce lovely, broad brush strokes.

Шаг 4

Give your page an eye-catching title. In our example, we’ve gone for “Habits that make me happy”. As you can see, edding glitter brush pens are great for this. A mix of block capitals and cursive script also works really well here.
