In adolescence, girls usually approach the choice of pictures to copy into their personal diary (PD) very carefully. The drawing should not only be beautiful, but also evoke associations in its owner related to a specific event in life, or reflect the current mood.
Knowing the algorithm for creating or copying simple pictures from the example, every girl will be able to decorate her notebook without having special knowledge and artistic skills.
What to write about in a personal diary
Pictures for girls' LD are a secondary component. The main part of such a notebook is the information specified by the owner herself.
In addition to secrets and personal data, you can enter the following into your diary:
Reflections on a past or upcoming event. Psychologists recommend "pouring out" your experiences and innermost thoughts on paper as often as possible. This helps to relieve emotional stress, relieve nervous tension, and can also become a way to survive a difficult situation that happened earlier.
This method of relieving the nervous system is suitable not only for children, but also for teenagers and adults, who often lead a stressful lifestyle.
Set goals. In this case, a diary can become a kind of motivator, since every day, looking into it, the owner will remind herself of what she has planned.
Moreover, the goals recorded in the LD may relate not only to the near future (for example, to lose 2 kg), but also predetermine the future direction of the girl’s life (for example, to become a doctor or to enter Moscow State University).
Final results after a month or a year. Among the past events, it is necessary to highlight the most positive ones and those that motivate further activity.
Small joys. These may be events that are not particularly significant for other people, but carry great meaning for the owner of the LD. Periodically rereading the positive moments described in the diary, the girl will immerse herself in memories and thereby lift her spirits.
Opinions about films or books. By recording her impressions after watching a new movie or reading another book, a girl will not only be able to learn to express her thoughts beautifully and competently, but will also create her own list of “favorites.”
Aphorisms. Inspiring or motivating statements by famous people can form the correct worldview in the owner of LD and help determine the direction of development of her future life.
What to write about in a personal diary should be decided by its owner, depending on the purpose of such a notebook. It is not necessary to keep the entries in a uniform style: today they may contain dreams and a list of goals, and tomorrow – worries about an upcoming exam.
How to find the right picture to copy for your personal diary
Pictures for copying into a personal diary are usually chosen from those that are freely available on the Internet.
But such blanks are not always a reflection of the girl's current experiences or mood. In such a case, you can try to abstract yourself from thoughts, take a pencil in your hands and just create.
It can be a completely unrelated drawing, but reflecting the emotions of its creator. Such art therapy, according to psychologists, helps to relax, distract from pressing problems, "talk it out" to paper and set yourself up for a positive mood.
Pictures for LD girls can be copied from many drawings on the Internet, or you can come up with your own
If the owner of the LD does not have basic skills for creating a drawing on her own, it is worth turning to ready-made examples on the Internet. Depending on the nature of the information recorded in the diary, it is advisable to choose pictures for copying.
They are:
colored;
plain;
black and white;
schematic (for example, simple braids drawn in cells);
with images of heroes from films, anime, cartoons, and so on.
If the owner of the LD has never had to copy before, she should start with the simplest pictures so that the creative process brings only positive emotions, and does not become a torment with an unsatisfactory result.
Pictures for copying with a pencil
Pictures for girls' personal diaries can be drawn with a simple pencil, a pen, markers, and even paints. The simplest option is to copy with a pencil. With its help, you can schematically reflect the current mood and diversify the appearance of your personal diary.
Simple pictures for LD girls to copy with pencils
Among girls aged 10-12, the most common are:
Picture
Step-by-step algorithm for copying
"Cloud of Love":
Using broken rounded lines, draw an oval cloud of the required size.
Lightly blend the pencil along the edges of the drawing to create shadows.
From the junctions of the semicircles at the bottom, draw drops in the shape of hearts, located at different levels and having different sizes.
Add shadows to the drops using a blending tool.
Draw a lot of small circles at the base of the cloud to create the effect of real rain.
"Notes of Love":
Draw 2 horizontal lines at a short distance from each other.
Connect them by drawing specific notes between them (if the girl is studying at a music school) or a typical drawing with the letter "P" with its dotted ends at different levels. You can add triangles pointing up and down between the notes.
Add shadows or thicken the outline by drawing with a pencil along the outline of the drawing a few more times.
Easy drawings on cells
Pictures by cells can be copied by girls of any age. They are usually created using a simple pencil or pen (when using a pen, the drawing may be distorted due to the smearing of the paste, which is in high concentration at one point). After transferring such a drawing to a personal diary, it can be colored or left in black and white.

Instructions for redrawing
"Ice cream":
Paint 4 cells in a vertical direction.
Paint 5 cells perpendicular to the resulting column so that its base is exactly in the middle.
Copy the line obtained in step 2 6 times.
Paint over three cells above the previous line so that one cell remains on each side of them.
"Hedgehog":
Circle 10 cells horizontally, coloring the first one.
Starting from 5, paint the cells until the end of the drawn line.
Circle 9 cells above the first line, the first of which should be above the second from the first line.
Color the second cell.
Starting from 4, paint the cells to the end.
Circle 8 cells so that the first one in the third row is above the second one in the second row.
Color all the cells, starting from the second one.
Paint 8 cells in the next row.
Circle 5 cells above the previous row so that one cell remains on both sides.
Simple Braid Patterns
Girls' LD can also be decorated with simple pictures of braids. You don't have to be able to draw or have pencils or paints with you.
The size of the personal diary also does not matter when creating such patterns.
Example of a picture for copying
Description of the technique
"Regular braid":
Draw 3 vertical stripes equal in length to 1 cell, at equal intervals (through the cell).
Move down 1 row of cells and draw 3 vertical stripes in the same way so that they are located strictly under the first ones.
Repeat step 2 an unlimited number of times.
Return to the first row of vertical stripes and connect 2 and 3 to 1 and 2 (from the bottom row) respectively.
Do the same with the remaining rows.
Starting from row 1 and until the end of the pattern, connect 1 vertical strip with 3 from the bottom row, without crossing the previously formed “braid”.
"Reverse Braid":
Draw 3 vertical stripes of the same size at equal intervals (in the example, through a cell).
Move down 1 row of cells and repeat step 1 so that the new strips are directly under the first ones.
Repeat step 2 the desired number of times.
Return to the first row of vertical stripes and connect 2 and 3 to 1 and 2 (from the bottom row) respectively.
On the next row you need to connect 1 and 2 vertical strip with 2 and 3 from the bottom row.
Alternate points 4 and 5 until the bottom line.
Return to the top row and connect the remaining strip to the bottom strip without crossing any other lines.
"Serpentine":
Draw 1 vertical line equal to the length of 1 cell.
Step 1 cell down and 2 to the right and draw 1 vertical line equal to the one drawn in point 1.
Repeat points 1 and 2 the required number of times.
Connect the lines, starting from the first row (upper and lower), so that their upper and lower points coincide, respectively. You should get rectangles located parallel to each other.
From the upper left corner of the second rectangle, draw a line to the middle of the lower edge of the first.
From the lower right corner of the first rectangle, draw an inclined line to the middle of the upper edge of the second.
Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the pattern is complete.

Algorithm of actions
"Arrow of Love":
Draw two arrows in a diagonal direction, intersecting in the center.
Draw 3 short parallel stripes on each side at the ends of the arrows.
In each of the 4 triangles formed by the intersection of the arrows, write one letter so that the total word is “Love”.
"Heavenly bodies":
Draw pentagonal stars that are approximately the same size but located at different levels.
From the top end of the star, draw a straight line towards the edge of the page.
Anime
Pictures for LD girls can be not just a random drawing, but also depict heroes of favorite films, cartoons, anime. The characters of the latter are quite easy to depict, following a strictly defined algorithm of copying.

Scheme of copying a drawing
"Young woman":
Draw a circle and determine its center.
Sharpen the lower part of the figure, giving it the shape of a person’s face (draw the chin).
At the top of the circle, draw eyes at the same distance from each other (the shape can be arbitrary).
Visually outline a horizontal line passing through the middle of the circle, determine the location of the future ears - at the level of the beginning and end of the dividing line.
Draw a thin neck under the circle using two smooth lines.
Determine where to draw the nose and mouth. The nose should be located exactly at the intersection of the horizontal and vertical lines that define the center of the circle, and the mouth 1-2 cm lower.
Finish drawing the hair and give the desired facial features to the character.
"The Laughing Girl":
Draw a circle.
Exactly in the middle of the circle, draw a vertical line that extends beyond the lower border of the figure.
Using smooth lines, connect the side edges of the circle and the lower end of the line (this should create a chin).
On the lower border of the circle, draw an oval, about 5 cm high.
Following the dimensions of the resulting oval, draw ears behind the side edges of the circle.
Place the eyes inside the oval at the same distance from each other, and the mouth just below the oval.
Add some character to the drawing – add hair, wrinkles and color the inside of the eye.

"Night Ball":
Draw an oval that resembles a balloon.
At the bottom, create a base in the shape of a triangle and draw an uneven line – a thread holding the ball.
At the bottom, draw four triangles of different sizes and directions of vertices.
Inside the triangles – rocks, draw chips – lines parallel to the sides of the figure.
Add shadows by shading the pencil in random places.
At the top of the balloon, draw a small circle with spots – the moon and the smallest stars possible.
Color the background of the upper part with a pencil.
"Donut":
Paint several cells in a horizontal direction (no more than 5).
Paint another line of cells underneath them, adding one cell to the right and one to the left.
Repeat point 2 2 more lines below.
From the resulting number of cells, subtract 2 or 3 located in the middle, and, leaving them unpainted, paint the remaining cells on both sides, without increasing the total length of the line (the total length is equal to: the original number of cells + 6).
Repeat step 4.
Color the number of cells equal to the fourth row from the top.
Color the number of cells equal to the third row from the top.
Color the number of cells equal to the second row from the top.
Repeat step 1.

"Casper the Unicorn":
Draw the outlines typical of a ghost, an elongated shape with jagged edges at the bottom.
In the upper half of the picture, draw 2 small black ovals at an equal distance from the outer contours; under them, draw a curved line (mouth) with a small triangle anywhere (sticking out tongue).
Step back 3 cm from the top border of the drawing and draw a cone (unicorn horn).
If desired, add stars, dots, snowflakes to the background or decorate the ghost itself.
"Summer Greetings":
Draw a semicircle.
Parallel to it, draw another semicircle inside, slightly smaller in size (watermelon rind).
Paint the inside of the semicircle red.
On the red half of the drawing, draw a lot of black dots (watermelon seeds).

"Love Bulbs":
Draw some hearts.
The base of the resulting drawings should be slightly stretched and rounded.
Add volume to the lower part by drawing or shading with a pencil (creating shadows).
On the inside of the bulb, draw thin lines from the base, converging in the center into a single word or the shape of another heart.
Color the picture.
"Jumping Heart":
Draw a heart.
At the bottom, outside the boundaries of the drawing, draw two small vertically elongated ovals (legs), and a little higher, draw arms in the same way.
Draw eyes and a mouth inside the heart at any place.
Outline the heart from above with a semicircle, closing on both sides in the previously drawn arms of the figure (skipping rope).
If you wish, you can create shadows or color the picture.

"Rainbow Cat":
Draw a semicircle.
Draw exactly the same semicircle above it, but slightly larger in size.
Connect the lower parts of the figures together using the next semicircles.
At one end, stepping back 3 cm from the bottom, draw an oval with triangles on the upper edge.
Place two dots and a semicircle (eyes and mouth) inside the oval, and 2-3 horizontal lines (whiskers) on the side edges.
Draw an elongated oval (tail) at the opposite end of the main semicircle.
Color the resulting picture in rainbow colors.
"Rainbow from the Cloud":
Draw the outline of a cloud with rounded shapes and jagged lines.
Create shadows by lightly blending the pencil.
Place 2 circles (eyes) and an elongated oval (mouth) inside the cloud.
From the oval, draw 7 horizontal lines, located at the same distance from each other. The lower part of these lines is connected to each other by wavy arcs, imitating drops.
Color the resulting stripes in the colors of the rainbow and give the cloud’s “face” the desired features.
For many teenagers, a diary is a way to splash out accumulated emotions and relieve stress. Girls choose pictures for their LD based on their current state of health. Knowing the algorithms for copying pictures for all occasions, the owner of a notebook will be able not only to regain emotional balance at the right moment, but also to diversify the appearance of her notebook.
Thank you! I run LD myself and things like this are very useful!
