Doodling is something all of us do – during college lectures and boring meetings, while talking on the phone, when we’re bored. They’re simple, fun, and perfect to incorporate in your art journal.
Here are a few ideas on how you can add doodles to your page:
- Create a simple doodled frame for your page.
- Hang doodles off elements on your spread.
- Doodle as your final step to tie your page together.
- Mix doodles and lettering to create a fun, sketchbook style page in your journal.
- Draw chunky letters and doodle within them.

Put this lesson to work: Short on time? Create a doodled letter in your art journal. If you have more time, try your hand at a sketchbook-style page.
Yesss! This is right up my alley! Like I told you earlier, I do this all the while….might as well, put it to good use! The pins are too wow!!

Yes! Make it the focal part of what you’re doing. Add some color. Some shading. Some words. And you have an art journal page!
I’ve survived three years of college and endless hours of seminars thanks to my love for doodling. You’ve brought up a much loved topic today. Thank you!
And some happy memories too, I hope! 🙂
Absolutely. If I can fish them out, I’d love to do a post on them!
Might take up some doodling bookmarks.
Ooh those would be pretty! Do share what you make 🙂

You’re welcome!
Wow! Looks great. I’m gonna try my bit at doodling 😀
Awesome! I’ll look forward to seeing what you create 🙂
I’ve done doodling mostly to pass time in class, never realised I could make it a thing. I love what you’ve described and done with your doodles 🙂
You certainly can!! It will be fun. Go for it!
Thank you. This is something I will try when I have the time. Maybe after the challenge.
