March Cover/Bullet Journal Header
This little doodle reminds me of the beautiful illustrations by August Wren. I wanted to take this class of hers on CreativeBug but I just didn’t have the time to commit to a painting class. Although it’s next on the list. When it comes to doodling little flowers like this, I simply need to practice my illustration style and find my own way.

April Bullet Journal Header
This is a fabulous little layout that is…. Truly out of this world. *groan* I hear you! Sorry, I couldn’t resist. The lettering itself is so unique and I LOVE it. Not to mention the adorable little illustrations. Thankfully you can find lots of little stencils, so the stars and shapes of the planets can be taken care of easily.

May Bullet Journal Header
Being able to see different lettering styles of specific words can be incredibly useful for bullet journalers and beginner hand letterers. The use of illustration in the hand lettered layout is lovely!
Top Tip: It’s SO easy to create leaves like that with tombow markers, you simply put pressure on the nib and it naturally ends up making the leaf shape!

I love cherries so I was naturally drawn to this lovely layout! The blending of both colours is great and it really makes a difference to the word. A little white on top would make it pop right off the page.

I added this layout because it’s incredibly simple to do, you don’t need to know how to create fauxligraphy, although you can practice using the mini guide above. All you need to know is cursive handwriting and you can create this header with a bubble detail surrounding the word.

August Monthly Header Idea
This August layout is beautiful. Using a big Crayola marker or highlighter you could create a word like this. The little floral detail is just beautiful and I love the simplicity of the word ‘hello’. I learned how to create lettering like this from a book called The Botanical Hand Lettering Workbook.

September Bullet Journal Monthly Header
Another little layout that is out of this world! I love these little illustrations, they are so cute. They seem to be simple enough to recreate and where you struggle to create doodles, you can always use a stencil like this and join up the lines.

Seasonal Bullet Journal Monthly Header - October
The colours used in this layout are so beautiful and a perfect palette for autumn/fall. I love my Crayola Supertip markers and they’re a GREAT affordable option if you can’t afford to buy all the shades of the Mild Liners or even Tombows. These are a beautiful reference page idea!

Colourful November - Monthly Bullet Journal Headers
The great thing about including all the months of the year in this post, is so that you can see the change of colours with the seasons. Not only that, but you can also see how each particular word looks in a specific style of lettering that you may want to copy. I love the colours chosen for these examples because it shows a beautiful subtle transition into winter from the fall months.

Simple December Bullet Journal Header
I love the simplicity of this title. It’s perfect for beginner hand letterers, all you have to do is practice your handwriting! Again, remember to do it in your bullet journal using a mechanical pencil first, so you don’t end up ruining an entire page because of wonky lines.
