There are so many benefits to journaling! It has played a significant part in supporting my wellbeing over the last few years.

It’s why I designed and wrote these journals, to share what’s worked so wonderfully for me, with others.

If you’re not sure where to start, each journal has different prompts inside the cover to get you started.

Scotland is sooooo lush! It can take your breath away.

It’s no wonder the landscape has inspired artists, writers and filmmakers for centuries.

And it’s all thanks to…our rain! 😂 So I remind myself of that every soggy dog walk and every dreich day.

Plus, when the sun actually does come out, Scotland becomes an unspoiled paradise and we appreciate it even more!!! Win, win! 🙌🏻

Eep, I am so happy with how this honeysuckle design has turned out!!

The honeysuckle is bursting into bloom this week and I couldn’t help but try and capture its beauty.

Hot off the press, this new design will launch at markets this weekend 🙌🏻

Market preparations are underway with a busy weekend ahead!

These box sets remain a firm favourite and make a beautiful gift or the perfect emergency card stash for yourself!

Come and say hello at Glen Spean Market: Producers & Crafters on Saturday or Love Oban Farmers and Craft Market on Sunday.

Lots of wonderful, local produce and craft to enjoy, as well as lovely vibes! 💕

The foxgloves are well and truly coming into bloom and the colour is magnificent! ‘Foxglove and bee’ design is available...

I captured a bumble bee in flight!! 🐝

I was trying to film the wildflowers and hadn’t realised there was a busy bee in amongst them, so held my camera still and caught it taking off!!!

Without these busy bees, there wouldn’t be the wildflowers, so I’m super grateful for this wee fella ❤️

Without the wildflowers there wouldn’t be bees, so I’m also thankful we have so many areas still left wild here in Oban.

There is nothing quite like a walk in the forest to settle the nervous system, be thankful, and regain a sense of peace that can be all too lacking in our busy worlds.

For those of you who may not have a forest near by, here’s a little snapshot of mine 💚

Thankfully no midgies the day I filmed this! 😆

The Scottish Midgie…

🥷 Tiny, silent, ninjas that travel with their pals

🌅 Most active just before dawn and sunset

💕 Only the females bite

💨 Struggle to fly in winds over 10km/h

☀️ Don’t like strong sunshine (bring back the heatwave!)

🌊 Rarely found on sandy beaches, especially if there is a sea breeze

❤️ Rife in humid, wet and cloudy conditions! (But I find they don’t come out in heavy rain ☔️)

There is a midgie forecast, which can be found and midgie merchandise !

Best repellents are or citronella spray. If they are really bad, you’re gonna need a midgie net! 😳

Any other advice you’d give….?

The poppies are everywhere at the moment! Mostly yellow, but some a beautiful orange.

My camera was struggling to capture the final design of this card, but in real life, I think it’s lovely 💛
