Permission to Begin - A Creative Year Zine | Month 1 (Physical Packet)
This is the physical version of the Month 1 zine - a tactile, foldable, carry-it-with-you companion to the first month of the Creative Dream Year.
You print it. You fold it. You make it yours. A link to some directions: https://youtu.be/4-H67SqxRO4
And then you actually use it — because it was designed to go with you, not sit in a folder.
What's inside your packet:
🌿 The Zine - Eight panels that fold into a pocket-sized booklet. Prompts, art, and space to name your dream and begin. Cover reads: Permission to Begin.
🌿 The Ephemera Sheet - Two pockets to cut and assemble, a "What's Been Waiting" mini book card, and two botanical permission slip tags. Tuck things in. Pull them out. Let it be a little interactive.
🌿 The Sticker Sheet - Vintage botanical stickers: roses, hydrangeas, a watering can, pressed flower envelopes. For your zine, your journal, your water bottle, wherever you need a little permission.
🌿 A personalized message from me and a video on zine construction.
This packet is for you if:
• You have a creative dream that keeps getting pushed to "someday"
• You want something you can hold, fold, and actually write in
• You're working through Make Your Creative Dreams Real by SARK with the Weird Girls Club
• You just need a beautiful, low-pressure place to begin
• You hate starting with a blank page or don’t know how to start.
No special supplies needed. Just scissors, a glue stick, and a little bit of time.
Ships flat. Assembly is part of the magic.
