About this Event
Creative Club IRL (in real life) meet-up! ❀
Come along and join my journaling, scrapbooking & creative hobby hangout! Bring your journal, scrapbooking supplies or any crafty project/ hobby you’d like to work on and let’s have some creative time together as a little community!
Our March 2026 theme is:
❀ Spring Whimsy Picnic ❀
Think: The first signs of spring, new beginnings, gingham picnic blankets, hampers and baskets overflowing with treats, enchanted forest creatures, whimsy, magic, a sense of childlike wonder and joy!! Theme moodboard: https://pin.it/4CyMKzoJN
Ideas/inspiration for what you could make:
❀ a moodboard, bucketlist, or bingo card for March or for the spring season!
❀ Easter craft projects like making a garland or wreath!
❀ A 'whimsy menu' or 'dopamine menu' (a list of little things to do to add whimsy to your spring days or to do instead of scrolling)
What to bring:
Want to bring along your junk journal supplies for a scrap and yap? Perfect, that’s what I’ll be doing too! Got a handmade card you’d like to make? Got an embroidery or crochet project you’re currently working on? Bring it along! This is open to anyone who would like to get creative alongside a community of other likeminded people, so please bring along any supplies with you for what you personally would like to create.
You can choose to follow our monthly theme (above) as inspiration, but you don't have to - make whatever you like!

Collaborative activities:
❀ March collaborative activity: Sticker Picnic! One page in the Big Joural will be transformed into a huge paper 'picnic blanket', please bring along any food or drink items to add to our picnic (and/or some cute characters to attend it!) in the form of stickers, image cut-outs or doodles/drawings :)
❀ Ongoing collaborative activity: making a title page for the Big Journal. If you'd like to contribute, please bring along (or make at the event) a title that says "Creative Club IRL" - we will be adding them all to one big title page. Bubble lettering? Ransom note style letter collage? Use whatever style you like!

🞷 About the venue 🞷
In a grand old building at the heart of Birmingham’s historic centre is the flagship Boston Tea Party cafe. Just a stones-throw from Birmingham New Street Station (approx 10 minute walk) you can grab coffee, breakfast, ‘the best brunch in Birmingham’, lunch, tea, or cake (despite the name, Boston Tea Party is not just a tea and coffee shop!)
