A Summer Picnic: July 2021 Reading Journal:

I have to admit I didn’t feel super inspired for this month’s reading journal spread. I decided that I wanted to do a summer picnic theme, and of course I stuck with red, white, and blue. It did turn out better than I expected, but it took forever. It was relaxing though.

Cover Page/TBR

I used my Tombow Dual brush pens almost exclusively for this spread. I think they were from the Tropical Collection. Then I just used a black brush pen for the titles. I really need to get a Tombow black as well. This one has lived it’s best life.

So let’s talk about the theme. I wanted this to resemble a picnic blanket so my lines aren’t perfect. And also I couldn’t find my ruler so it worked out.

Review/Bought

I decided to alternate between red and blue for the title headers. My blues turned out a little darker that I wanted, but it worked. I’ve really got to update my review page now that I look at this. I’m a bit behind lol.

Read/Wrap up

Lastly, we have my books read and wrap up page. I kept my same consistent theme throughout this spread. I did end up enjoying the sort of vintagy, nostalgic theme of my Summer Picnic Theme. And, yes, those are cat feet in the top right corner.
