Creative Journal with me ASMR |

On this episode of the Cozy Creation Station, I’m taking part in the #JunkJournalJanuary challenge collaboration hosted by megjournals. Today I’m creating a spread in my junk journal inspired by the Day 7 prompt: ‘Shimmer’. If you love ‘journal with me’ style videos in real time with no talking and no music, I think you’ll enjoy this one! It’s also a good video if you need some inspiration for your junk journal. Plus, if you love paper ripping sounds, asmr cutting sounds and writing sounds, this is a lovely relaxing video for you.

Featured in this video:
✨Paper from a booklet of wallpaper samples, scrap paper, images and patterns cut out of my mum’s Prima Christmas magazine! (I tried to really get into the recycling and junk journaling spirit for this one, in honour of Junk Journal Jan)
✨‘Sparkle and Shimmer’ stickers I designed and handmade for my Journal Club patrons ( / kiacreates ) that will eventually be available on my shop (kiacreates.co.uk/shop/)
✨The Spotify ‘Sparkle’ playlist I created full of sparkly, glittery, shimmery and shiny songs, which you can find here if you’re interested: open.spotify.com/playlist/28x...
✨The gorgeous moon journal and gilded washi tapes I use in this video are from The Washi Tape Shop, you can use my code JOURNALS10 for 10% off :) www.thewashitapeshop.com?aff=39
🚂 About the Cozy Creation Station 🚂
The CCS is a project by Kia Creates (that’s me!) born from a combination of my enthusiasm for journaling/crafting and my love of playing ASMR and ambience videos in the background while I work or relax. Find out more by watching the Cozy Creation Station trailer: • Welcome to the Cozy Cr...
Enjoy your visit to the Cozy Creation Station however you please: watch what I’m creating, create something along with me, or simply play the episode in the background while you study or relax - it’s totally up to you.
This project marks my first foray into animation, I hope you like my cozy train and station sequence - I was inspired to bring my illustrations to life with movement and a soundscape, and I think I was also subliminally influenced by the nostalgic aesthetic of PC games my sister and I used to enjoy in the 90s, as well as more modern cozy games.
I’d love any feedback you may have about your visit to the Cozy Creation Station as I’m hoping it can grow with us and I can build the experience around what you as a community enjoy and would like to see, so please feel free to share your feelings :)
I hope to welcome you back to the Cozy Creation Station very soon, until then, stay cozy! ♥

Gorgeous page Kia! Thanks for being part of JJJ! :)

[@KiaCreates]

thank you so much Meg! thank you so much for inviting me to be part of it, I’m loving this challenge and all of the inspiration from all the creators’ videos sooo much! ❤️

[@theindigoforest]

Love the Spotify Playlist idea! 💞

[@elainem8326]

Really enjoyed it, very relaxing indeed!

[@debraschultz8945]

What a shining example of shimmer. Love your page! I love your entrance and exit, so cute and creative!

[@KiaCreates]

thank you so much! that really means a lot to me! ❤️ I have a little question: after the intro, would you prefer that the actual journaling video goes full screen for most of the video before zooming back out again for the exit? I’d love feedback on whether it’s nice as it is or whether it’s a bit too small. (if anyone else reading this has opinions on this please let me know!) ❤️

I haven’t seen an ASMR video before, nor have i watched anyone create in your style. Two enjoyable firsts! Really nice vibes.💙

[@KiaCreates]

this makes me really happy as I was hoping to welcome in some people who maybe hadn’t seen this style of video/journaling yet, I’m so glad you enjoyed it ❤️ I hope to welcome you back again soon! 🥰

[@tavanetaylor98]
