Step one
Start by selecting two different cute washi tapes that match your theme.
Place one tape along the top edge and the other along the bottom of your journal page. This simple yet effective step adds a playful and aesthetic touch, setting the tone for your kawaii design.
Washi tapes are perfect for adding colour, texture, and personality to your page while keeping it neat and fun.
Use a Sticker Cutting Tool to easily and neatly cut the washi tape along the grid line.

Step two
Next, choose a few adorable stickers that complement your kawaii theme and place them in the corners of your journal page.
Whether you opt for pastel designs, playful characters, or motivational quotes, placing them in the corners helps frame your page and creates a balanced, visually appealing layout.

Step three
Use highlighters to draw a colourful border inside your page.
Run them along the edges, just inside the washi tape and between the stickers.
Choose pastel or bright colours to match your theme and keep the look playful but clean.

Step four
To complete your kawaii journal page, use a Sakura Pigma Micron ~ Black Liner Pen to draw a dot-dash-dot border around the highlighter border.
This simple yet elegant detail adds definition and contrast, making your design stand out.
The clean, sharp lines of the fineliner perfectly complement the soft colours of the highlighter, bringing everything together for a polished, cute look.
