I was kindly sent one of the pre-made journals created by  ⁨@NinaFickettDesigns⁩  for her Keep-It-Spicy journal challenge for 2026. You can learn more about this challenge from Nina. But, basically, there are monthly prompts/inspirations. This month, we were to draw inspiration by starting with a color that was already on the page we were using.

Nina's website with all her links are here: ninafickettdesigns.com
You can find Nina's prompt sheet for the challenge here: static1.squarespace.com/static/63b6ebe3ba0a897c885aec7f/t/68b9f214bbab876e3c4ed2c6/1757016596133/2026+Keeping+It+Spicy+Info+Sheet.pdf
