Hi there! My name is Nikki, I'm 19 and from Europe. I am looking for a penpal that is okay with us talking over tumblr for a while, before we send each other letters.
I am a hobby author, university student, into bullet journaling and memes, enthusiastic about everything that has to do with animals (espescially dogs - come to my Ted Talk), part of the lgbtq+ community, and I am in a lot of fandoms - in case you need an ice breaker :D
If you are interested in writing letters, sending each other little trinkets, maybe pictures or pressed flowers, etc. Please message me here on tumblr @artistsfuneral
1. Came back yesterday and one of the first things I did was opening my package and yelping in delight, followed by sending pics to my friend who was the main reason for this haul
2. It's mostly stickers and sticky notes because the new semester starts after this weekend and me and said friend are once again gifting each other notated books for Christmas - hence the many emoji stickers :3
Okkkkk are you readyyy???
Bam!!!! Looks small at first but hooold on!!!
Those animal stickers in the top left? 10000% worth it, they look fucking amazing!
Soooooi many emoji stickers! XD buuttttt I spent a really long time searching for some inexpensive ones bc the two sheets on top, which are the ones you regularly see, were pretty expensive in relation to that pack below that has sooooo many variations in size and form that I got it in both available colors hehehehehe :3
Annnnd moooooreeeeeee stickerrrrsssss!!!!!
I just couldn't say nooo. They are teeenie tiny but made with so much love and detail! I got a forest set, a farm one, cottagecore, staying home, staying home with friends, plannnts, doggggoooos, and a flower shop au XD
Can we please get pictures of the new buji, Nikki? Prettty please? x🌸
I got another Ottergami B5 180gsm !!! 🌼✨
When you look it up on Amazon, the cover of the new one looks very orange, so initially I wasn't sure if I wanted it in that color, but then I saw it on another blog and realized that it's actually a really pretty earth tone (a bit brighter than in my pic) and I really like it!
The dots are a bit darker this time, which I'm not a fan of, but it's not obnoxiously dark and if the page is filled it doesn't stand out so much, so I can overlook that 😂
I won't start using it until July, since I still need to fill up the rest of my current bujo, but I already did the first few pages and am super happy with how it turned out!
I chose a rather simple design, since I want the first pages not to be overwhelming, so it's mostly black and white, with some red/orange tones to fit with the earthy tones of the journal itself. Drawing the flowers was super fun!!!
Do you know Amanda Rach Lee? She does/did the yearly overview like that and I really wanted to try it out. Kind of follows the Dutch door idea and makes the calendar look like a little booklet. I was very nervous when I started this bc there's just so many ways to mess that up and halfway through I was lowkey panicking bc I didn't like how it looked, but as soon as I added the numbers and the flowers I was glad that I did it. 🤸🏼
And the last thing I did to kind of round up the theme of the orange flowers was one last quote page and an index page that slowly leads away from the orange and to more neutral tones.
The quote is a poem by perry poetry (almost always use those, they're amazing) that had a positive, uplifting feel. Perfect for starting a new bujo 🥰
You called, m'lord? OMG these look goooooood! I definitely need more pictures! Nikki, please! Pretty please!!! /stationary anon 📜
Ohohohohoho you will like these ones 👀✨
It's actually 20 new things in total 😂 I went a little wild, since it's been a while
1. Two set of various washi tapes, one black and white themed, the other one has a blue summertime/vacation theme 🌼✨
2. Stiiiiiickerrrrssss!!!! There's actually a lot more 😅 I bought three or four different sets of cottagecore/green/farmlife stickers, and then some other pretty ones, like the blue social media stickers down below - I absolutely love them!!!
3. (Sticky) Notes!!! Do you see the ones on the right? They are gorgeous ommmggg!!! Each of them has an absolutely beautiful design that also fits that summer holiday theme, I'm in love! 🤸🏼🤸🏼🤸🏼
Honestly so happy with what I got, I can't wait to use them 🤩🤩 but now I need to figure out how to sort all of these 😂😅

Oh my goodness, Nikki, that baby dragon is so cute! <3
awww thank you 🥰🥰🥰
It's going to be the protector of the journal it is in and it will grow up as the journal grows!
Right now it's still very shy and soft; it's antlers grew earlier than usual (and are therefore crooked), so it's a bit younger than most of its fellow working spirits. It worries that it may not do the best job, so I think it needs a very special name to boost its confidence! ✨✨
