Themes, layouts and inspirations
The latest challenge on the Moxie Fab blog is to create a paper craft project inspired by a bag. They have posted a number of lovely bags for you to take inspiration from. I especially like the one shown above. Click here to go to the Moxie blog for more details.
There comes a point in life — usually somewhere between school drop-offs, aging parents, work deadlines, and wondering what’s for dinner again — where “self-care” stops being trendy and starts being necessary.
And no, I don’t mean booking a luxury spa weekend (although if that happens, I’m not saying no). I mean the quiet kind of self-care. The kind you pencil into the margins of your planner. The kind that says:
Early night.
Drink water.
Cancel plans.
Rest.
For instant peel-and-stick results, use printable sticker paper. Just print, cut, and add directly to your journal or planner — no glue, no mess.
That’s exactly why I created these Self Care Printable Stickers for Journals and Planners — gentle reminders you can print at home, cut in one sitting, and keep tucked in a little envelope ready to add to your pages whenever life feels full.
These mini self-care journal stickers are perfect for A6 planners, Hobonichi Weeks, ring planners, bullet journals, and gratitude diaries.
This printable series includes:
Slim labels designed to tuck beside your handwriting:
These are small, mini planner-friendly, and easy to add without overwhelming your layout.
Soft watercolor mini illustrations including:
They’re subtle, calm, and designed for women who love journaling but don’t want anything loud or “fitness bro” inspired. Just gentle, grown-up self-care.
These are some of my favorites because they feel real:
These pair beautifully with gratitude logs and weekly reflections.
Printing these is simple and budget-friendly.
Step 1: Use good quality paper.
For a sticker feel, use matte sticker paper. For journaling on a budget, plain white paper works perfectly.
Step 2: Set your printer to high quality.
These are watercolor-style designs, so high print quality keeps the colors soft and crisp.
Step 3: Keep the background white.
All sheets are designed with a pure white background so they print cleanly and don’t waste ink.
Here’s my favorite little routine:
Each sticker has a clear dashed cut line, so they’re easy to trim neatly.
Then I pop them into:
That way they’re ready when I’m planning my week.
These stickers aren’t meant to fill every square. They’re meant to support your day.
Here are some easy ways to use them:
Add “Gentle Day” on a packed Thursday.
Stick “Early Night” next to a long Wednesday.
Place a small candle or tea mug sticker next to an entry about quiet time.
Use “Low Energy” or “Reset” as visual markers.
Write your plans, then add:
Just a tiny visual cue makes it feel intentional.
Because when it’s written down, it feels valid.
A sticker that says “You are allowed to say no” on a Tuesday when you cancel dinner plans? That’s not decoration. That’s reinforcement.
For many of us — especially in our 40s, 50s and beyond — self-care isn’t indulgence. It’s maintenance. It’s energy management. It’s protecting our peace.
And sometimes, it starts with something as small as a little watercolor sticker that says:
