Bujo Pages: January and February 2024

I’ve been trying to spend more time in my bujo (bullet journal). I don’t often complete a journal thoroughly, but this year, I plan to. However, I did make that one mistake of using gesso on my weekly pages and that slowed down my process.

These pages I’m sharing are only of the fun stuff, or my hobbies. The calendar and weekly pages aren’t shown because they’re a bit personal. The top photo is April’s intro-page to April’s month. I’m always trying new ways to make my intro-page exciting. You’ll see below that I was covering two pages with one image. I enjoyed that for a short time, but I also love storytelling, so I decided to use one page for the art and the other page for a short (micro) fiction.

Since I’ve been learning how to generate AI art, I’ve been using the art pieces for my intros. It takes a lot less time, but it still takes time. Once I generate the art, I will often take the art into Photoshop to enhance or correct any issues. I also upscale and resize if necessary. Currently, I’m learning how to create better photo composites, but in the meantime, instead of a boring planner, I’ll be using AI art.

I normally would work on the previous month while in the current month. Let’s hope I can catch up!

I am using an A5 notebook from Archer & Olive. The leather notebook cover is an A5 Austen in the Darcy color from Chic Sparrow.

Do you bujo? I would love to see your process.
