I personally love when you go back to previous months to fill in the rest, I find it so satisfying. So that would be my vote! I love your reading journal videos; you seem to have so much fun with them and that really comes through.
If you have a sheet of the letters still you could possibly scan them or take a photo of them and make your own stickers of them so you don’t burn through them so quickly
I am currently tracking & creating mood boards for all the audiobooks I have listened to over the last year -your inspirational journal has offered many ideas of creativity & structure!
I was so excited for a 50 minute video, then immediately got so busy its taken me a week before I had a chance to watch it! Love your spreads, and the Paper Monogatari ephemera ❤❤ I also haven't had a chance to set up my April reading journal spreads yet, but I'm going to use some of the Stickii Club stickers I've beeen hoarding.
I love to watch your videos. They are so calming and I get so many great ideas for my reading journal! Crescent City is my favorite series by SJM! Now keep in mind I’ve only read the first 2 books in the ToG series, but I don’t see that taking over as favorite. I also really love ACOTAR too!!
Thank you so much! 🥰 I’ve been toying with the idea of starting Crescent City even though I haven’t finished TOG yet haha - I probably shouldn’t but it’s so tempting! 🤣
Love the long video! I got all of my stationary bits out to do some of my own journaling alongside you but I was so captivated by the video I got distracted and have barely started! At least I have lots of motivation now 😊 thank you!
Loved the set up for next month. I have that same print. If you haven't read Ten Thousand Doors of January I recommend it. It was one of my highest reads so far.
I love this video so much! I’m definitely going to be rewatching it when I go to create my journal spreads. Thank you for the inspiration and amazing content! ❤
Excellent video, as always, Erin. 🙂 Loved the variety of spreads and your reading round-up. By the way, Martha Wells has written some excellent fantasy books, perhaps you might enjoy them? I recently liked City of Bones and Witch King.
😂 we are swapping stationery again. I'll have to pop some of the gorgeous letter stickers in the portal! I love them❤ I was short one letter so (don't tell anyone) I photocopied the one I needed 😊 Then promptly ordered more sheets. I also have Anna, from journal away, Spring bundle on the way. Your videos are combining all my favourite makers ❤ (that includes you, by the way)
It was actually a gift from a friend 😅 but if you search ‘Mind Wave Tsuta washi tape ivy’ hopefully you can find a stockist near you! In Australia you can get it from Washi Gang!
From almost DNF to best cowpile score. Talk about dramatic come from behind journey! Beautiful spreads. I keep forgetting I could use my inks for my stamps, thanks for the reminder.
Didn’t even know there was a novella for the serpents and the wings of night book series! 🤦🏼♀️ Welp now I need to reread the first and the first half of the second book! (I got stuck in the middle and got bored and started something else. 😂 but this is clearly my sign to pick the series back up!)
Hello Erin, I know it wouldn't go through the washi tape, but will need time to dry. I haven't tried on my bujo's,. I think before using try on a same paper slip type. Thank you for commenting back. You have great content 😊
I read _The Name of the Wind_ and _The Wise Man's Fear_ (second book) in three days each, mostly on my bus rides from high school. I loved them so much that I only put them down when I had to do other things.
I only started a creative reading journal this month, up until now I’ve tracked my reading in a Moleskine. I‘m still in the process of setting things up because supplies are on their way (no „no-buy-March“ for me, but maybe in April?) Absolutely adore all your set ups but especially this beautiful April cover spread! In my head I live in Autumnland all year round so despite being located in the northern hemisphere I really feel your spread. Also, as a fellow millennial in their 30s I am in love with your mood ring 💍
Oh, I forgot, a little tip: Scan your sticker sheets before you use them, then, in case of an emergency, you can print some of the missing parts out before you order new ones.
If only we could live in autumn all year round 😍 haha thank you - it’s a faux moonstone I think, I got it to wear to a fantasy ball but it does have the mood ring vibe!
I would feel like I was stealing if I did that, particularly if I share the copies online in a video - Stickii support a lot of indie artists so I don’t mind supporting them by buying another sheet 🥰
As for the illuminated letters, look for illuminated letters fonts and create your own stickers. There are options of free font sites (I have a few trusted links) and purchase sites.💙🇦🇺
I’m hoping to take a class on them at a Shakespeare in the Park event in April so I’m hoping I’ll be making my own soon 😉 I’m also performing at the event though so it depends if the timing lines up!🤞
My UA-cam auto played your video when I'm much later in the year so this is pretty late but did you know there are novels for Firefly? I believe there are three novelas.
Great video Erin! I was wondering, it’s not linked in the description, where is the cawpile notepad from? It would make my life easier when I have to do my reviews. :) happy Easter! 🎉

Aww I’m so glad that joy comes through in the videos! It’s looking like include-in-next-month’s-video is the top vote so watch this space 🥰
Your videos are always a "5 star" !! Chock full of ideas, beautiful artistry and fun to navigate. Well done.
Oh I hope you love the name of the Wind, it's my all time favorite book - my fiancé actually put a quote from it engraved in the engagement ring.
listening to this video while updating reviews in my own journal, drinking tea - perfection ❤️
Aww thanks for choosing me to keep you company! 🥰
50 min video! That's a treat!
I think it’s my longest ever! I worry sometimes people will get bored 😅
Your reading journal is beautiful
If you have a sheet of the letters still you could possibly scan them or take a photo of them and make your own stickers of them so you don’t burn through them so quickly
That’s true! It feels a bit too much like copyright infringement though so I don’t mind buying another sheet 🥰
This is exactly what I was about to type out, and then I saw your comment. Great minds alike, etc 😊 xx
I love your reading journal set up, it's so pretty! Had to make sure to follow so I can watch more of your vids. Thank you for sharing.
Hey hey! Early crew 🥳 😛
🍪🍪 Two cookies to you for being first Jess! 🥰😘
I really like the April theme. It feels so cozy. Thank you for the long video.😊
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 🥰
I loved the whole Inheritance games trilogy! And I'm very interested in your review for The name of the wind, I might read it too
🎉🎉🎉 imma rewatch this when I set up my own reading journal 🎉
Same!
I’m so excited to keep you company when you do! 🥰
Yaaay I’ll be ready haha!
I LOVE your April set up, one of my favourites that you've ever done
Thanks Chelsea! I really enjoyed putting it together!
i think you´re going to love "the name of the wind". I love this book!!!!
oooh yes a great video to work to! I also need to update my reading journal haha
read: I need to start it 😂
Literally same! 😂
It will be ready for you when you are Kelly! It’s so much fun though, you won’t regret it!
41:39 Squaird Plans (planner designer on YT) taught me to use the white opaque pen on the back of a transparent sticker to make it more visible.
That’s so smart! 🤯
Love your April theme, those colours are just perfectly autumnal. 🍂🍁 Nice ivy washi tape 😜
I was hoping you’d notice that 🥰 someone very special gave me that!
these are so gorgeous, I love your aesthetic ☺☺
Thank you so much!! 🥰

I really enjoyed this! And I needed to hear that all kinds of reading journaling is valid. 💜
We believe that wholeheartedly here on this channel!
Love the long video! I got all of my stationary bits out to do some of my own journaling alongside you but I was so captivated by the video I got distracted and have barely started! At least I have lots of motivation now 😊 thank you!
Gorgeous!! ♥ I wish I had time to keep a reading journal. Yours looks amazing.
Loved the set up for next month. I have that same print. If you haven't read Ten Thousand Doors of January I recommend it. It was one of my highest reads so far.
Thanks for another great video!
Your journal spreads are so inspiring!
I love this video so much! I’m definitely going to be rewatching it when I go to create my journal spreads. Thank you for the inspiration and amazing content! ❤

OH I had heard of City of Bones but not made the connection, thank you for this! I’ll have to check them out 😍
This video was such a treat 🥰 love it ❤
Thanks!
Thank you so much Sandy! 🥰 I’m so glad you enjoyed the video!
Amazing
nice reading month, I've been hit with a reading slump and it's not fun. Love how you're pages turned out this month
Reading slumps are so hard 💖 I hope a great book finds you soon and pulls you out!
@@ErinSmith , I think that I have, I just haven't been in the mood to read during the week because of work but I am going to try and finish it today.
😂 we are swapping stationery again. I'll have to pop some of the gorgeous letter stickers in the portal!

Where did you get the washi please? (24:44)
It was actually a gift from a friend 😅 but if you search ‘Mind Wave Tsuta washi tape ivy’ hopefully you can find a stockist near you! In Australia you can get it from Washi Gang!
I love your reading journal
From almost DNF to best cowpile score. Talk about dramatic come from behind journey! Beautiful spreads. I keep forgetting I could use my inks for my stamps, thanks for the reminder.
Right? A quiet achiever! Inks with stamps is so much fun, I recommend it! 🥰
Didn’t even know there was a novella for the serpents and the wings of night book series! 🤦🏼♀️
Welp now I need to reread the first and the first half of the second book! (I got stuck in the middle and got bored and started something else. 😂 but this is clearly my sign to pick the series back up!)
Haha sorry to add to your TBR 🤣 I haven’t started on the second one yet but I’m excited to see how these characters fit into the story!

Love this video! Thank you for the ideas! Would love to know if you made the CAWPILE sticker?
I did! It’s linked in the description in case you’d like to print some for your own journal 🥰
do you remember where you got the PET tape with the pink flowers you used on the Six Scorched Roses page? ty ;;; 💙
Journalsay! 😍 they come in sheets rather than a tape roll, which is a bit different! Here’s a link: bit.ly/49hhK1E (it’s an affiliate link, just FYI)
If you don't want smugging you would be best to use star on ink, as normal ink will, as you found out. Love your videos
Sorry smudding, and staz on ink
Thank you for this tip! I’ve never used solvent ink before, does it bleed through the page at all?

@@ErinSmith here’s hoping for you and am looking forward to seeing the results 🇦🇺💙
I have actually finished 12 books so far this year, which is the number I finished for the entirety of last year!
Jen you’re on FIRE! 😍 I hope you’ve had some wonderful reads in there!
Please read Caraval. I can assure you that it won't disappoint you.
I have it on hold through the library - hopefully by next month I’ll be raving about it haha! 🥰
you will have to tell me what you think of the name of the wind, once done, it is a fav of mine :D
My UA-cam auto played your video when I'm much later in the year so this is pretty late but did you know there are novels for Firefly? I believe there are three novelas.
I did NOT KNOW THIS 🤯
Great video Erin! I was wondering, it’s not linked in the description, where is the cawpile notepad from? It would make my life easier when I have to do my reviews. :) happy Easter! 🎉
I made the CAWPILE stickers myself 😉 you can print off an A4 page of them to use if you like!

@@ErinSmith Thankyou! 👌🏻
What are the markers you use to draw the lines of the progress here? 1:44 I looked in the description box but couldn’t find them.
Basically just every pink Tombow dual brush pen I own 🤣 this link has the full range but I think I used 772, 800, 761 and 723 🥰💖

@@ErinSmith okay thank you ☺️❤️
Haven't read any of the books, but just saw something about Alexander Skarsgard staring in a Murderbot tv series.
Yes I had heard something about that too! I can’t quite picture it but the man’s amazing so I think I’d trust the character in his hands 🤣
hi ! how do I join your bookclub, it sounds amazing
