Most of my inspiration for my bullet journal comes from the things I am surrounded by. August’s cover page features tropical leaves in pretty green hues. It just happens to be inspired by my new swimsuit! I’ve also had a tropical vacay on my mind.

I hope this month you take a moment to look at the things you choose to surround yourself with. It’s amazing how much inspiration is waiting to be discovered!

I used a variety of tools to create this awesome cover page! For the August lettering I used thicker Prisma markers from the hand lettering set. I love the variety of markers you get in this set! I used several different markers for the leaves to get multiple hues of green. For the mossy green color, I used a Midliner highlighter. These are my absolute favorite! The markers come with a fine and bold tip. They also blend and build very well! The more vibrant greens are Crayola Supertips. Lastly, the bluish-green hue comes from the green marker in the Micron-colored brush set. This design was quick and simple and lots of fun! It has great potential for fun weekly spreads and trackers!
Happy Planning!
