Hey again! It’s Hayley here (@hayleyremdeart on Instagram), and today I want to share with you some amazing bullet journal spreads using the new Archer and Olive Acrylograph pens!

Whilst they’ve only been released for a few months, there are already so many amazing creations using them! To celebrate the launch of two new Acrylograph colour packs - Warm Fall and Cool Fall – I thought it would be fun to share a selection of spreads, lettering and illustrations all made with them to show you just what they can do. So, if you’re on the fence about buying them, or want some inspiration for when yours arrive – keep on reading!

Recommended Supplies:

• Acrylographs - The new pens from Archer and Olive with acrylic ink. Perfect for an opaque finish on the black paper.
• Archer & Olive Journal – The lovely and thick pages have no bleeding or ghosting, so you get a clean start for every spread! They also have a variety of paper colours (white, Kraft, Blackout or even all three!), which all work perfectly with the Acrylographs!
• Pencil – To carefully plan out your ideas so you can make sure your spread has everything you need.

First off, we have to start with the queen herself. Bonnie, the creator of Archer and Olive makes the prettiest patterns with the Acrylograph pens. If you need inspiration – especially for what colours to pair together – head over to the Archer and Olive Instagram page!

Masha always creates the best spreads, and for this one she used acrylographs in the most perfect autumnal colours for the header of this fall activities spread!

Erin is absolutely killing it in the blackout journal lately. She incorporates the acrylographs into her spreads a lot, but I especially loved this topographic map theme she did. So original!

I'm absolutely in love with all the details in this spread by Melanie! She used a gorgeous mix of white and Kraft paper, showing of the capabilities of the acrylographs on both paper types. And I just love the colours she used!

Raksha's bullet journal style is really gorgeous. I especially loved her simple line drawing monthly theme. The abstract shapes created with the acrylographs really completed each spread!

Marsha said she has been really loving the acrylograph pens lately. This spread of different fitness doodles was created entirely with the pens, and it makes me want to get motivated to exercise more!

One thing the acrylographs are perfect for is lettering. If you love lettering too, you really need to check out Whitney's amazing work! You'll never struggle to find what to letter on that first page ever again.

You can also make fun bold patterns on all types of paper. See this blog for a tutorial on how this spread was made!

And finally, here’s an example from me on how you can incorporate the acrylographs into your spreads alongside other mediums. Here I used them to draw in the castle over the gouache background.

Overall, always remember all bujo’s are beautiful!  I hope I’ve given you some inspiration for what the Acrylograph pens are really capable of. If I have, I would love to see, so tag me on Instagram (@hayleyremdeart) and use #hayleyremdeinspired to get the chance to get your creations featured in my stories!
