Starting off with this simple August bullet journal idea, and it’s so cute! I love that not much effort has to go into creating a spread page. This is some simple collage with some doodles and stickers, but the overall affect has turned out nice. If you have some spare pieces of paper and glue, this will be a good idea.

A very elegant and sophisticated cover page for august. This page has been built on collage and the layout is very minimal yet detail orientated. The illustration is the centrepiece of the page layout and the colors which the page has taken from. The artist has also included a monthly spread in this, which can be good to note down key events.
