[@amandarachlee]

please illustrate a children's book! it would be amazing! ❤️

[@christinemylinh]

Yes!!!! I have so ideas for it too! 💕

[@sannedelange3158]

When the year is done, and the bunny has had many adventures, will you pretty please do a filp through the the same story style as your monthly set ups? It's really relaxing to listen to you tell the story while you draw the set ups, it would be cool to have the complete story told at the end. Good luck with the craft show ! It's a really awesome achievement.

[@graceignacio306]

For some reasons, I teared up when the bunny met the bear once again. 💛💛💛

[@irene1888]

Me too!

[@instagamrr]

This is so stunningly beautiful. Your cherry blossom quote sums up how I feel every time I look at them, and when I look at your drawings too. Overwhelmingly beautiful 🌸

[@sanilam.8008]

I am way too emotionally invested in this bear and bunny's lives.

[@maddyohara5839]

Sanila M. Me too 😂😭😍

[@mdinunzio7610]

Sanila M. me three!

[@helenedahlsveen93]

I love that you are telling the story of the bear and the bunny while you are drawing and writing💗 it’s so different from other «plan with me» videos. You’re my favorite😂🌸

[@randommlynn9184]

I not only watch these for the journaling content but for the story and journey of the bunny. I was so happy when the bunny and the bear were back together and listening to their story that I almost forgot that I was watching a bullet journal setup.

[@LifeDIYJosie]

Christine, I love your bunny and bear story. Thanks so much for this very relaxing, uplifting, and beautiful journal set up. I am learning to draw from your videos. Enjoy your holiday! Hugs~ Josie :)

[@Feuing]

@LifeAt50&Beyond Josy, I'm feeling the same about this vd. #grateful

[@christeljoelle8358]

You know what it is, you tell stories, and sometimes I just wish my mother could read me a story again. And by listening to you, I get a little that feeling back😍💕

[@Neta303]

The bunny and the bear story is so cute and made me so emotional, I don’t know why. This is truly such a beautiful and relaxing video

[@RealBlackEssence]

Ms. Christine, I'm going to say this one more time.....you are such a true blessing! I pray to God, Himself, that you are successful in ALL that you do! I'm glad I get to witness it!

[@emmahayleyw]

The beauty you create in your journal is like creating beauty in the world. I love the way you describe your gorgeous pages of life.

[@nattydabom]

the drawing of the bunny and bear reuniting makes me feel so happy!

[@sonakshi1513]

Your voice can help someone calm down if they were anxious. I love how soothing it is.

[@philia9351]

You never cease to amaze me, no matter what it is. Even the smallest things- such as your remark that the hummingbird has the ability to defy gravity, which is a way I never thought of it before. As always, adored this video

[@beawuhu8728]

I'm usually more the practical type. And I watch your videos for pure enjoyment. But the small tutorial for the blossoms really gives me that thrive! I will try to paint them for April. And I thank you for simply encouraging me to start a new thing.

[@malloryrobinson6418]

I love your videos! You have such a beautiful calming voice! I think you should illustrate a book with your bunny ad bear characters, then do a audio book too! I would buy both lol!!! Have a good Holiday

[@cbjk2929]

Mallory Robinson me too... it would be an awesome gift for my grand babies

[@CarrieB11]

I was thinking the same thing. You'd be a wonderful children's book author and illustrator. I would love to read these stories to my son. 💚

[@madbakh6613]

Mallory Robinson right!?

[@edelineravenel8799]

Congrats for the good news. You deserve it so much. I love that the bunny came back to the bear. For me it shows that : a sincere friendship can't be erased even by the distance.

[@valerieskallerup6860]

I freaking love this! So beautifully illustrated and the story actually made me cry. It’s hard sometimes to see that the difficulties that we face are just journeys of growth. Thank you so much for the beautiful inspirational video!

[@shelleysteffens9255]

I JUST started to work on a bullet journal in April and started with a cherry blossom theme as they have always make me feel calm, happy and excited for a new beginning. So, imagine my joy in finding your video! Thank you so much....you helped my desire burn a bit stronger. "Bullet Journaling" is a new creative outlet for me. Thank you for your inspiration and ideas!!!

[@maepple]

Yes, Christine! Be proud of your spread! You definitely captured the magic and showed it to us in an amazing way. I enjoyed this longer video and the rabbit's story! Keep on keepin' on!

[@PrincessPeach0123]

Thank you! You inspire me so much! As a highly sensitive person your aesthetically pleasing videos, your calming voice and the things you have to say, touch my soul so deeply. Keep doing what you're doing. You are pure magic! 🌸

[@sannejolink1329]

Wow, this is so inspiring, just the way you tell the story about the rabbit and bear and combined with the bullet Journal lay-out. It gives me such a relaxing vibe and I will defently use this lay-out for my bullet journal!

[@melissakee2286]

The quick and easy tutorial in-between really helps to see how easy some drawings can be! Gonna try them myself too now

[@briannemuise7856]

I love just listening you you explain the rabbits story and it always makes me so happy to watch you draw. Thank you for being a content creator because your content is freaking amazing!!!

[@anab.7450]

I really appreciated the mini drawing tutorial, thanks!

[@LuvWinchesterMen]

So beautiful!! I admit that I teared up when the bunny and the bear were reunited. Such a sweet story, and your drawings were perfect to go along with it! Thanks for sharing it!

[@christinemylinh]

Aww you're so sweet, thank you so much for making my day brighter with your message!!! 💕💕💕

[@Kinaboo69]

I loved this and I cried with tears of joy for the rabbit and the bear. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@naraira__1397]

Always love the fact that you put nice quotes throughout the journal. 😇

[@carou5331]

This has to be my favourite layout so far... I love them all, but cherry blossoms are my favourite thing. It looks beautiful...

[@emilytobar5300]

I’ve gotten to the point where I just watch these videos for the story of the bunny and the bear! I’m so happy they’re together again☺️

[@everythingmusicgirl]

I cried!! I absolutely have loved the bunny and bear story and to have them reunited was fantastic. Plus where you've added color makes everything even more beautiful!! Love your videos!!

[@elfincrafter]

I love the artwork. The story almost had me in tears when bunny found his friend bear. ❤

[@darlahadley5575]

Absolutely beautiful! As always! I love your stories and your honesty. You are so transparent with your viewers. I’m not artistic but just this past week I had a revelation as I heard someone speaking... my brain isn’t made like anyone else’s and the creations I make in writing or drawing or whatever are unique to me and that makes them special because no one else does it like me! Old news I know but I was struggling with self esteem and comparing as well. Now I know I am a unique creation and I create uniquely... good or bad it’s mine alone.

[@ashleymrm5791]

Wow, the way you present your bullet journal and the way you mixed the story-line of the rabbit makes me feel so inspired to do a bullet journal. The music ties everything together. Your talent is un-real! you so deserved the craft show that you got asked to do :)

[@christinemylinh]

Aww you are so sweet, thank you for making my day brighter! Best wishes to you! 💕

[@mdinunzio7610]

omg the bunny jumping in the bears arms is so heart warming ❤❤❤

[@DawnMontgomeryAuthor]

I really hope you'll publish this story at the end of the year. It's so adorable and wonderful.

[@nancysloan6298]

I love listening to you and your soothing voice telling your bunny story!

[@user-op7nn6lq4t]

I was so happy to see the bunny and the bear reunited! If that story was turned into a children's book, I would buy it for my son. I look forward to your setup videos every month :-)

[@princessodyssey]

I struggle with comparing myself to others. Your spreads are so beautiful and unique that I was surprised to hear that even you struggle with comaprison, too! Know that you are doing beautiful work and should be proud of all YOU have acvomplished!

[@brittany-diana4774]

I am 18 but when your children’s book comes out I know I will be buying it for myself to read time and time again due to your meaningful and amazing art work and storytelling

[@ajhufford]

I love how delicate your drawings are and their story. Beautiful work.

[@natalieburrows6151]

I accidentally stumbled onto your January video, yet I find myself looking forward to the next installment... I love the characters you have created and can't wait to see where your journey takes the bunny, bear and fox, thank you for sharing your work x

[@heyrosiebee]

i burst into tears at 7:50. that was so beautiful..

[@happymommy906]

I loved the bunny and his journey. It was so touching!! Thank you for sharing. God bless 🤗

[@all_myhobbies4503]

I love love love this video!! Cherry Blossoms are my absolute favorite!🌸 Thank you so much for providing a tutorial on how to draw them. I’m not an artist but I’m definitely going to attempt to draw them. I was so happy to see the bunny and bear meet again. You are an amazing inspiration and I love your story telling. You need to publish a book including your beautiful illustrations. I would definitely buy it!

[@stephh9397]

I happened to stumble upon this video (while falling down the rabbit hole (pun intended) of watching so many bullet journal setup videos) and I have never finished a video feeling this good! Simply put, you have an amazing way with words, art and you are obviously extremely talented when it comes to setting up a simple but powerful bullet journal. I am SO glad I was able to find your channel and watch this wonderful video!

[@medusastone2725]

Aaaaand I got tears in my eyes when the Bunny and Bear were reunited. Like I said, way too invested.

[@JournalwithPeggy]

This is the first time I watch your videos and I love it. You made bullet journaling so fun and beautiful. Yes, you did capture the magic!

[@aminael-edroos8113]

Hiiii! I have been looking forward to April. And can I just say that this was above and beyond what I expected. I miss the bronze jelly roll but the colour of the cherry blossoms is so refreshing and resolves that I simply loved watching the video. I really hope the reunion was of wonderful beginnings! ❤️❤️❤️

[@melisacastanon9363]

Christine, I just found your channel and am loving your videos. They are so calm and peaceful, yet full of inspiration. I would love to see more "how to draw.......". Thank you for sharing your beautiful and serene art with us.

[@jazzynovakovic]

What I love the most about your bujo art, is that you have a story to tie it all together. That is unique and beautiful ❤️

[@katek3324]

Christine, this is an outstanding video. The music is on point as usual and all the quotations are inspiring. Your artwork is beautiful and I just want you to know all this work you are doing is inspiring in and of itself. Congrats on all the success and such a beautiful spread.

[@sittirn9617]

I love your voice. You speak so calmly that relaxes me. Keep it up and enjoy your holiday. ❤❤❤

[@Withlove_J540]

You captured the cherry blossom's magic beautifully~ Always love the stories and quotes you share with each spread. 🌸

[@natasjatube]

I love it how you create a (positive) story in your bujo, together with the cute drawings. Your videos are so soothing, it really made me calm down after a hectic day. Thank you ^_^

[@dyerswoad7088]

So beautiful! I really enjoy your style, your art, it evokes so many feelings when I watch your videos. Thanks! Thank you for the tips on how to draw cherry blossoms. I really love them, the are so delicate and beautiful but at the same time I get the feeling of strength from them. Don't know why, maybe it's just me but the cultural significance in different parts of the world, the way the grow and soon after fall, their capacity to change a whole landscape..... They are fragile and at the same time strong.

[@EnchantedwithPoodles]

This layout is my new favorite of yours too. Absolutely beautiful! And I’m so happy that the bunny and the bear have been reunited. Good luck at your craft show, my vote is for you!

[@alexandratoma6783]

i just can't understand how come you don't have more, so many more subscribers! you're videos are so nice, so soothing and so well done! just love them all!

[@alenawu5383]

love that quote about comparison! that is such a good reminder and i love how you incorporate such inspirational quotes on each spread. But i never knew that about cherry blossom! Just a good meaning!

[@corkspa]

That cherry blossom quote is what led me to my first tattoo, a trio of cherry blossoms!

[@amywoomack50]

Hello from New Zealand!! I really like the fact that you had a story to say during the video and I like how relaxing it is to watch and listen to your videos while working on my own Bullet Journal :) Keep it up!!

[@sanjiti8371]

I was smiling all through this video. Your voice is so calming and your work so honest :’) All the very best!

[@lafleurdenuit_]

I really enjoy your tutorials. You're very good at taking something seemily complicated and making it easier to grasp. Very inspiring and beautiful, as always!

[@bookaholickindle8613]

I absolutely adore this months spread. It's fresh, beautiful and brings me a sense of peace ❤ thank you for sharing with us

[@KoalaRabbit1]

I really love your style of art. They look beautiful, neat (I mean clean), and I can feel your love in your drawing and your stories telling.

[@lardylu]

This plan with me is absolutely beautiful. You're words and art are so inspiring!

[@lunaryenn]

Dear Chrissy (Can I call you that way? :) ) I just wanted not only to say hi, but also comment the actual set up for the bullet journal you've made... I'm speechless, and it's not overreacting, believe me... It all looks so classy, elegant, beautiful and easy to make although it's not... I know it's not because I can see many people trying to capture this magic you've succeeded in doing this time. You know... I had tears in my eyes at the end of this video, I don't know why but not because of sadness. You just touched my soul with this set up. Those quotes... I really should learn them by heart as well. I can feel we both are similar to each other, too sensitive for this cruel world, yet really good people. So far it's my most favourite video of yours and I can't wait for more piece of art from you. Please keep up the great work. You're one of my all time favourite youtubers, although I know you're too modest to admit it ;) All the best from me to you :* Lots of hugs!

[@Rukaia12]

Your little birdie on the sakura tree looks so cute! The whole video looks so good but i really love that birdie! And i also really loved the way you told told the story with your pictures while doing your setup!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@LoganW1815]

Your videos are so beautiful and calming. I love the bird singing at the end.

[@jeannesauvage117]

I love these planning videos--I look forward to them each month! And I love the bunny and the bear and their journey! Thank you!

[@chocolatecakee8657]

your month ideas are aesthetically pleasing!

[@natalia_persegani]

I’m so happy for you for the philly show and the sponsored video!! I love watching your videos, your drawings and paintings are beautiful and you have such a calming voice, I always look forward to it. Congrats!!

[@rebecaromeiro4311]

Your videos are amazing! Not only you're talent with the pen, but also with the words and how you motivate and inspire with the tale of the bunny and bear's journey. Have a great trip! Love from Brazil!

[@karinlindstrom4347]

Ohh I'm so happy someone else thought of flowers for april's monthly spread! I painted magnolias for my cover for april which are my favorite flowers and which usually blossoms at the end of the month here in Sweden. ^^

[@MelRos29]

Oh my, I love this so much! I saw that you posted a free days ago but was putting off watching it so that I could do so when I had some me time. You have done such an amazing job again Christine! I adore the story of the bunny🐰and the bear🐻and seeing them together again made me smile. You are doing a great job and I always look forward to your videos. 💗

[@kirstenkuik2051]

I'm in love with your journal; your drawings, your story, your inspiration. I wish you a happy holiday. Lovely greetings from The Netherlands

[@mirateunissen6574]

You have such a unique and beautiful way of filling your bullet journal. The drawings you make are very dreamy and I honestly didn't expect to feel so much better after watching this video! It has given me more courage and motivation to make something of the coming month. I also want you to know I was very touched by the story of the bunny and the bear, it's very sincere and I think the quotes you put with it really added up to it. I actually never commented before but now I wanted to :) I'm looking forward to your next videos !

[@lilian9604]

I am speechless..you never fail to fascinate me with your beautiful work, narration and inspiring quotes. Thank you🌞💖🌸🌸🌸

[@danniellestark7154]

Your such a good storyteller are you and author/illustrator

[@christinemylinh]

Thank you!!! 💕

[@kdmylove]

so gentle and soothing and calming and lovely. thank you and stay you

[@isabelasoares9436]

Hey Christine! I loved this theme, I chose it for January, but I learned the meaning and importance only with you! Thank you! 😊

[@TheresaWagar]

Really enjoyed the story you share throughout your planning. Could almost read it to a child. Magical!

[@mel_wei]

This video just let me realize that bullet journaling can be so much more than just drawing and planning. You are truly amazing. I hope other bullet journalists can realize this too. I find it sooooo cool that you have a story theme for your 2018 bullet journal. You are a truly inspiration to me. I felt so relaxed watching this video and also just listening the music you have in the background was really really soothing.

[@christinemylinh]

Aw, your message is just full of good vibes! Thank you so much! 💕

[@cynthiasmith5138]

This is so very delightful! Cherry blossoms are one of my most favorite of all blossoms. I have them all over. Now I have the possibility of making them too. Thank you ever so much, and Kudos on the Art Fair venture.

[@gaea2007vm]

This was gorgeous, I was really moved by the story and I thought the way you told it was beautiful! Thank you for sharing this wonderful world with us, this was inspiring and calming all at once! I've been feeling very anxious lately and this calmed me a lot and just encouraged me to go drawing again, something I know makes me feel good. Thank you thank you! Off to do my own April setup! 💛

[@Solina587]

Your Videos are so inspiring and lovely The story of the bunny made me tear up again

[@PlantBasedBride]

Such a cute little bunny! I can’t believe I didn’t think to draw a bunny on one of my spreads this month... I did a minimalist line art animal theme with different animals on each spread. Didn’t even think to do a bunny for Easter 🙈 haha Oh well. I enjoy how you style the table you film on! I’ve always done a basic black background for my Plan With Me videos but I want to try something a little more decorated ❤️

[@Lo-hb7jl]

This video makes me so calm. Your voice is very nice for a voice over!

[@kaitlynpallares9935]

I almost cried when the bear and the bunny reunited again, I maybe an adult but I would buy your children's book for myself. I need to make this one!!

[@dicksisutcliffefolk212]

Beautiful story, beautiful drawings, beautiful quotes, beautiful YOU! 💞

[@evaogorevc1139]

I wanted to do a cherry blossom themed spread for this month as well. I was trying to think of a way to incorporate them in this month and not in a million years could I come up with something this gorgeous! I'm totally recreating this, thank you for the idea! :D

[@gazelle.119]

I'm very happy they found each other 😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jessicaburkel9648]

I love the theme and message of this spread. So inspiring.

[@Inprintxyz]

I was going to do cherry blossom this month! Hope you don't mind if I still go ahead with it??? This was awesome to watch 😍😍😍

[@Art3mis1990]

I think you'll find the bullet journal community very open and welcoming, I've watched so many videos and no one seems obsessed with taking credit for a month's theme :) they all do it in their own way. :) So I think it'll be fine to use this theme too and give it your own spin! I'd love to watch your video (I'm your subscriber too :) )

[@Inprintxyz]

That settles it then!! Cherry blossom it is 😀🔥

[@isabellanicambrois341]

Oh my God! I love it. Everything you do is so beautiful. I love all your paintings and your etsy shop. You are such an inspiration!

[@IngridUJ]

I really love your ART!!! You had made me travell through your art work and your voice... Real and deep "Thank you"...

[@sumedha8206]

I love this theme! Sending it to my friend who loves cherry blossoms. Definitely will try to replicate these sometime. They're so pretty!

[@jackiemaree5864]

The cherry blossom theme makes so much sense! Can follow it throughout the month so clearly!

[@kimmattler2419]

How stunning Christine! Thank you for your beautiful story telling, it illuminates your theme so well 😍
