Hello Sparkly Owlettes!
I hope everyone is doing well and staying warm (if you are part of this winter blast here in the states).. I am working on my January Journal, getting caught up! I hope you enjoy the video.
Stay Sparkly, Rebecca
Hello Sparkly Owlettes, Have spent the first half of January setting up my journals and planners. This is one of my favorite things to do at the beginning of the year. In today’s video, I’m showing my planner and journal stack of the year! This year’s focus is to really set a plan in place of routine.
Stay Sparkly! Rebecca
Hello Sparkly Owlettes! One of the journaling prompts I have listed is to list your current favorites. My daughter gave me this idea (she added it to her journal last year) In this video I am adding journal flips to show my favorites. Using supplies from an earlier kit that included apples!
Thanks for watching! Rebecca
Hello Owlettes!
I hope everyone is having a great 2026 year so far. I am working on slowing down and enjoying the moment, and not feeling rushed all the time. I actually think many of us feel that way after Christmas. Today’s video is all about setting up my intro page in my Daily Creative Journal. I am using an altered Composition Notebook. Pages removed and pages added from a children’s story book. I hope you enjoy the video!
Stay Sparkly, Rebecca

Hello Sparkly Owlettes! I hope you are doing wonderful and enjoying the most magical time of the year! I have been thinking a lot about a whimsical work of Fairy Tales, meaning seeing the world through Rose Colored Glasses! I haven’t played in my fairy tale journal in a while and I wanted to add a couple of sparkly things that have happened this holiday season. I am also hoping to start a new fairy tale journal in 2026! I hope you will join the ride of rainbows butterflies!
Stay Sparkly my friends, Rebecca
Today, we’re starting Part 1 of creating the FUN cover for my 2026 DIY Planner. I’m walking you through the playful, crafty process I use to set the tone for the entire year—mixing textures, colors, and little moments of silliness! Grab your favorite cozy drink, and let’s play!
See you soon in the next video! Stay Sparkly, Rebecca
Mrs. Claus Crafty Bingo FUN!
Hello Sparkly Owlettes!
I’ve been having the most magical time creating in my Christmas/December Journal! Since this season is always so busy, I’ve prepared little number clusters—tiny ephemera layers with the days of the week—so I can easily add them to my pages alongside writing, photos, and whatever treasures I gather each day.
That brings me to the Mrs. Claus Bingo Challenge! It’s the perfect way to spark creativity—whether it’s sprinkling on sparkles, coloring with crayons, or layering torn paper. Prompts like these keep the ideas flowing and make every page feel magical.
Bonus fun: Be one of the first 5 to complete the challenge, and I’ll ship you a little something special! Don’t forget to share your pages using #rebeccahootmrsclaus so I can see your completed bingo card. Also, be sure to post and I would love to hare your creations on IG, FB and Threads!
And of course, the best way to stay in the spirit is to slip into your coziest Christmas pajamas, sip your favorite drink, and let the holiday joy guide your creativity.
Bingo Challenge ends, December 1st! Printable down below to add to your journal!
Stay Super Sparkly friends, Rebecca
