Love how it turned out! I also love crate papers but can't find them locally, but found that they sell them digitally on AC Digitals which is great cuz you can print in any type of paper (thiner, vellum, ect).

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Oh that’s a great tip to print them out! Thank you!

[@AzaleaLala]

Your cover turned out so cut! That little otter is adorable. I was thinking when you cut the wood paper at an angle you could make a secretarial pocket there in the front and tuck some cute scraps in there.. You have inspired me to do that on my next cover. You were brave going to Florida. Covid is out of control there. But it sounds like you stayed away from people. My brother and family live in Florida and they all got Covid. Thankfully they got over it and are ok.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Oh the pocket idea is really clever! I actually think my whole family got Covid in February before it became pandemic status😬. No way to verify now but I wish I knew. I'm so glad your family got through it❤️

[@anushka21011980]

Love the traveler notebook cover you made 😍

[@cerealnana]

I love it! Off to go check out the stickers. I do not need more stickers! I use that insert passport sized for my bullet-ish journal.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Haha, did you get more stickers?😆 Thanks for watching!

[@cerealnana]

I would have, then I remembered no one is shipping to the UK from the States right now, and even if they were customs would lose them!

[@hkm424]

We have so much in common as far as paper and fountain pens with medium nibs. I do prefer a B6 size though. I'm having a hard time finding good quality paper w/grid inserts or notebooks. I've been thinking of trying a stalogy but I really really think I'm going to regret it since I prefer medium nib fountain pens. Do you have any suggestions that don't include printing?

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Have you checked Wonderland222 on Etsy? She just came out with B6 TRP notebooks. Also follow PaperCutsHK on IG-you can DM them about ordering. They have B6 TRP notebooks! I really don’t love stalogy paper with my fountain pens!😬

[@hkm424]

@@sarahmartinezjournals Thank you soo much. I will check both out! Yay!!

[@dhm304100]

Pelikan fountain pens are really nice. With proper care they will last you a lifetime!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

I’m so excited I finally have one! It writes so smoothly even on my toothier papers. 😀

[@tattooedcat]

This turned out so cute! He’s such a happy guy with his coffee and his coastal vibes. Perfect morning cuppa. I’m excited to hear about your Pelikan. And it always works that way, leave the house and all the packages come. 😹 I love your angle change, and both sides turned out so perfect. Thank you so much for sharing! 🧡🖋

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you! He’s such a sweet little guy😄. I appreciate you watching♥️

[@GrannyGarbage]

Fantastic cover... that otter with his coffee is priceless!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you! Isn’t he the best??😍

[@GrannyGarbage]

Sarah Martinez omg yes.... as I’m biting my nails ... telling myself... no you have enough!

[@loreedavis9592]

Wow, do I love this! You are so creative!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Aw, thank you!🤗♥️

[@talksfromtheheart]

No offense but I think that’s your cutest one yet! I’ve named him Baxter.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Haha, thank you! I verified his name is Wesley, raincoat is Charles. But there needs to be a Baxter!

[@inlesinlet]

Wow, I am IN LOVE with this cover 😍 I'm Sea Sámi and have a sea otter in kelp tattoo, so I was -quick- to order those otter stickers for myself 😂💙

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Oh they’re perfect for you!! I’m glad you got some-they’re all sold out now! I hope they come back⭐️

[@donnadaniels1577]

Love Sammie Clark!! I have a number of her stickers and they are very special!!

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

I hope to get more designs from her down the road🤩

[@marshahostetler]

Sarah do you know how the midori take watercolor? You are so cute with your folded edges! I really love your videos you are like me in some ways so I so get you. Have a wonderful day Sarah! Could you do a video on your new fountain pen?

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you, Marsha! Midori paper is great with watercolor. I think it buckles/wrinkles a bit more since the paper is thicker than TRP. I will definitely have to talk about my Pelikan soon!♥️

[@caffeinatedxoctopus]

Love this cover and I loveee that otter. That otter is me I am that otter 😂😂

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Haha, he’s the cutest!!😄

[@elliescorner2019]

Fun!! I love those two papers and how you’ve angled them. I’ve started setting up that exact same insert for One Book July and I LOVE the paper. I’ve never known what people meant by “buttery” before but that’s how I feel about this paper. 🤩😍 Your otter is so cute and reminds me of Mr. Otterton from Zootopia. 😂 (And can I just say how much I love transparent stickers/edges?! That is a pet peeve of mine too.)

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Mr. Otterton! I forgot about him😄. I’m even more excited to see your standard setup now!

[@CydPiper]

Super Adorbs Sarah! Xx

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Thank you, Cynthia♥️♥️

[@karenkelsall1516]

I love your video's, so thank you. I'm from the U.K and wondered where you got the black label stickers from (or even a brand name) as they're exactly what I've been after. Are they like the chalkboard ones? TY in advance! Xx

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

They’re from The Paper Studio! I buy them at Hobby Lobby. www.hobbylobby.com/Scrapbook-Paper-Crafts/Stickers/Ornate-Chalk-Designer-Labels/p/80638847

[@yasmeensiddiqui2107]

Beautiful and we'll thought out cover. Lovely paper😍

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

Aw, thank you so much♥️♥️

[@cynthiablair4432]

Where did your chalkboard stickers come from?

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

They’re from Hobby Lobby😊

[@erin_ware_art]

Ahhh! Where is that paper from? I love on an island in between Savannah and Tybee!!

[@erin_ware_art]

Duh, I found it. I was just too excited. 😆

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

I need to get more too😂

[@incognitoedc]

Watching you do the background is driving me crazy. All you had to do was start the back the same way you did the front. Less wasted paper too. I was yelling at the video!!!! You judisn't think it through. That's why multi tasking is such a fallacy.

[@sarahmartinezjournals]

I wanted that part of the map on the front-where it says “Tybee”😉
