Question 1

What is Self Care Art Journaling (#selfcareAJ)?

Accepted Answer

For me, #selfcareAJ is a way to pair writing and art journaling so the page supports my self-care—not just my creativity. It’s about making space for reflection while I’m also layering, playing, and building something I love. If you share your pages, use #selfcareAJ so we can all find each other’s work.

Question 2

Where can I get Nina Fickett Designs self-care journaling prompts?

Accepted Answer

I created 24 self-care writing prompts and you can grab them from the link I shared in the video description. That’s 12 more prompts than you need for this series, so you’ll have plenty to choose from. I wanted the prompts to keep the focus on self-care, because that’s what this year-long journey is about for me.

Question 3

Is this a 2025 art journaling series with writing prompts?

Accepted Answer

Yes—when I was deciding what I wanted to do for my 2025 art journaling series, I kept thinking about a year of journaling in tandem with art journaling. I’ve really missed the journaling process, especially combined with mixed media. This series is my way of returning to that rhythm with intention.

Question 4

What supplies do you use for self-care art journaling pages?

Accepted Answer

I love working with a few dependable basics: vintage paper, matte gel medium, gesso, and simple tools like a brayer and a good flat wash brush. Then I add small details—labels, punched circles, washi tape, or a paint marker—to make the page feel finished. The goal is layered and meaningful, not complicated.

Question 5

How do I participate and share my pages?

Accepted Answer

If you’re participating, share your arted pages and use #selfcareAJ so we can all see what’s being created. I also have a Self Care Art Journaling playlist linked in the description so you can follow along easily. And if you have questions, drop them in the comments—I’m happy to respond.

Question 6

Why combine journaling with mixed media art journaling?

Accepted Answer

Because it brings me back to the heart of why I’m making in the first place—processing, reflecting, and caring for myself. I used to be an avid journaler and I’ve missed it, especially when it’s supported by the slow, layered creative process. Writing plus mixed media makes the page both expressive and grounding.

Question 7

What is the focus of the ‘Me Time’ self-care journal page?

Accepted Answer

This page is about giving myself permission to slow down and focus on self-care. I’m building layers and choosing elements that feel calm and intentional, so the page supports the message. It’s a gentle reminder that “me time” is part of the practice, not a reward at the end.
