I love these quotes on journaling. Can I use them for my personally designed journals? I am planning to sell these journals.
Glad you enjoyed the article Pam
The quotes don’t belong to me – you will have to get approval from each person/team etc if you plan on selling them in journals I think
Best to get in contact with someone who knows more about this matter
