Paper Secrets Ink

Happy New Year!!!

Does anyone feel like 2025 passed extremely fast? Not trying to reveal my age but it is true when you're elders tell you that time seems to pass really fast as you get older.

I wish time could stand still sometimes. In a world that has become about instant gratification and short clips, it can get overwhelming.


Journaling is one of those times that I get to be in my own thought bubble and focus and think. I wasn't as diligent as I wanted to be last year. I felt like everything was a rush and I was barely catching up. I just have to remember that everyone has their own pace and time. It's okay to slow down and breathe. Someone else's time line isn't always yours~

I know it's cliche that "new year…time to make some goals" however I am going to continue mine from last year…

- Learn to let go of control. You can only control your own actions
- Be kinder to yourself. Loving yourself is just as important as loving someone else. Your life doesn't revolve around other people's wants and needs.

What are some of your goals?

Thank you and for sending this beautiful package that designed.

Can you guys see how cute Winston the pigeon is?! And who knew I would be so attached to an ink called Pigeon P**p 😂 ?

My students often say this hobby is either "cool" or "old people stuff" so I'm excited to show them how whimsical, naughty and fun this little Pigeon and his ink can be 😉

I think the official name now for the prototype I picked up has also been voted on and is called "Thunderstorm".

Esterbrook is hitting it out of the ballpark and I can't wait to see what's coming in the New Year! (•ө•)♡

Self-made !

I didn't splurge on either diamine or color vent this year, but I couldn't resist the fun of opening an every day, so I bought the 24 pack of Ostrich Ink to open each day. However life gets busy so I ended up having to the on the weekend 😅

My favourite colour so far is Polar Cloud. Can't wait to see the rest!
