Happy crafting 🦋
I have been thinking about starting the journey of Art journaling. I can neither draw nor paint like a professional artist. This beautiful piece of art is stunning. I am in love with what you have achieved here in 40 minutes. I am encouraged to get my act together and start the journey of self-expression through art journaling. Thank you for sharing and giving me the courage to start.
Happy creating 🩷💜
I completely agree with you... I've wanted to have a go at journaling but have no arty skills. This was such an inspirational watch that l really feel encouraged to have a go. Thank you
@@rosemariealtringham9063 You, too, have encouraged me. Thank you!☺
You do know this wasn't completed in 40 minutes, right? Some of the video was sped up, some parts weren't in the video (like drying time) and other elements of making something like this are going to take much longer than 40 minutes. It's beautiful work and it takes time and patience especially when it comes to the drying times.
Today, officially i did no went to my work. I was so full of ideas, that it was impossible to me not to make mix media all day. I gain mush more than money, and it felt so good! Thanks for the inspiration. Loves from Chile 🇨🇱
Sometimes our mind just needs to create all the ideas we have ❤️
Take a piece of tape and tap on a corner to quickly help make the layers of the napkin to separate
Thanks!
Thank you so very much 🩷
thank you for showing the whole process - may be im am stopping tooooo soon ;O)
How quickly 40+ minutes flew by! So relaxing and absolutely stunning gorgeous art!!!!! Simply stunning.
Thank you so much ☺️🩷
Gorgeous! Love this so much!
As we know art is subjective and this is your piece but I wanted to so many times stop you from adding more dark green. Less is more (for me watching this)
Thank you so much for the idea. You are so talented. I think I would’ve done less of the green on the right side since there was already so much color and when you added the light pink at the top of the left page i thought wow what a beautiful touch then you covered it. Lol. It was so beautiful instantly but I really wanted to take the brush 15 minutes before you finished. I hope you take this in the spirit intended lol you got my mind thinking and getting my creative juices flowing. key word subjective and you have given me some other ideas I would do. Absolutely gorgeous. I wish I had those beautiful napkins. Thank you for sharing!!! 💚🎨 You inspired me during a tough period.

I am having issues with reading books and always have, so turning the books I do have into art journals is sounding amazing. You make it so simple in this video, thank you for the instructions. Hug from USA Utah. 🤗
Happy creating 💖
I like to pause the video and read all about chocolate 😍
Lovely napkins. If you hold a bit of 'blue tack' in each hand and press them against each side of the paper, the blue tack grab the paper and pull apart the layers easily.
I also enjoyed watching you create this page and also grateful there was no horrible music. So many people who post seem to think that really annoying music is a must. Really like the colors. TFS.
Absolutely beautiful, I love this idea ♥️🥰♥️
It turned out so beautiful! Enjoyed watching it take form! I've decoupaged for years but the paste and the stencil with the colours really takes it to a whole new level! I will take courage and try it out! Thanks for sharing 🤗🕊️
I am in awe of your art style and can't tell you what a pleasure it was to watch you work.....Thank you💖
First thanks for sharing your artwork with us and then a little tip: for separating the napkin layers you simply need to wet your fingertips 😊
I could watch you work for hours on end. Thank you for sharing your tips n techniques
Oh wow I can never find such pretty napkins that I see others using , I'm not good at finding stuff I guess. This is beauty
Tamaras Napkins on Etsy has 1600 choices, and you need buy only one of each, not a pack. Great customer service 🤗🤗🤗
Wow. Stunning. I stumbled onto your channel and it's been the most relaxing 40 minutes I've ever had, watching you create such beautiful art. Amazing.
💜
To get the back layer off of your napkin just take a piece of tape and tap the back side gently and pull and that will start the whole back coming off.
The lets go cracked me up... first time viewer love your work and process. Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring us all to create. New subscriber
Thank you and welcome to my channel 🤗
@@ShanoukiArt thank you so much. I look forward to watching more of your videos and the ones that have yet to come. How often do you make a video?
beautiful composition, excellent tutorial, thanks for posting
I love how the paint courses through the crevices when you water it! Soooo super pretty
I love how you incorporated the stencil texture with the napkins to create such beautiful dimension!
I liked the wood grain it made it seem lime you were looking at the flowers outside a window. But this is stunning!
Beautiful, I enjoy working with napkins so many uses!! Thanks for this 🥰
Those napkin flower images look SO REAL! Great colors.
Your videos are always unique and I find them interesting and calming.
Thanks for video

I just found your videos. You are the only one who explains the process completely. Thank you, thank you.
I love these pages and the techniques you used to create them. Gorgeous! 🤗🇨🇦🤗
Awesome blossoms. Love this play with napkins. Lovely work of art.
Beautiful napkin. I look 4ward to seeing more.
you are a true artist. your work is beautiful. from Judy in Canada. thank you
Looks amazing ❤❤
Stunning❤️❤️
I'm gonna go to the free library around the corner from my house, then head straight to dollar tree lol. I was learning the decoupage technique to decorate a box. Then wondered if I could do the same thing in my journal. This video was exactly what I needed. I didn't want to touch my journal until I knew what to do lol
I really like your solution for the middle of the page. I’ll be giving that a try to avoid water getting into the binding! Thanks for your all your work you share!
Love this video! Thank you so much! Looking forward to creating pages! Subscribed! 👍👋🥰❤️
🤗💜
I love the process and result of your art. Very relaxing and satisfying.
You're amazing! Every time I watch your channel, I learn something new! I also love the strings that u do on other projects! Wound up thread too!😊
💙
I found your video it’s very interesting to see what you did with the napkins they turned out really pretty❤
🩷
I love this video. Just brilliant! Can't wait to try it.
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!! THANK YOU!! I am excited as my mom (83 yrs old) and I are just starting out and do not know anything. I have been gathering materials and we are almost ready to start. I like your voice and the pace of the video as it is not too fast or too slow. Just the right pace. Also, love the series from start to end. We will watch ALL of your videos. "Hi" from FL, USA!! Also, what is RAK?
That is so very lovely and I love how it was created. I will be trying to do something like this.
It is just beautiful….
I'm finally going to try this. I've always been on the bench about this, but your beautiful work has convinced me to try it xxx
Try taking a piece of tape wrap around your finger, then tapp the layer to separate them with ease! Cover the page with a glue stick, then lay the napkin on the page then glue stick over the napkin to smooth it over the page works great! Thanks for sharing your art journal 💡 ideas!
Great tip! Thank you, someone else had mentioned it too, and I do that now 💕
Your pages are so pretty! Very inspiring. Thank you. I found watching you create your art so incredibly calming. Even when you weren't saying anything, I was glad there was no annoying music, it's not necessary.
Thank you so much! And thank you for the feedback about the music, or lack there of ❤️
Yeah, I'm good with no music too. Stunning journal pages
This is beautiful, Thank you for your time showing us how tos, I loved that it was just a book to start out with,,,,cool idea is there a video showing the different pages and how you first started the book?
I see a face in the dark flower. Love the page
It's great to meet another Aussie crafter. Gorgeous pages,very informative and easy to follow. Thank you

Thank you so much ❤
Really love this page! So beautiful 💕 Thank you for sharing your process.
I LOVE this video!! I have watched it three times but I am still too intimidated to try it!
Don't be, just start :-). What is the worst that could happen? You could hate it, and then you just start again. If it makes you feel better, I have many flops and I am actually going to start a series here on my channel where I will film myself fixing up the flops. There is no such thing as bad art, just relax, start and enjoy! Happy creating ❤️
Absolutely gorgeous. I recognise the South African accent.
💓
Beautiful 😍
❤
Absolutely lovely. Especially like the paint within the stenciled areas
Absolutely awesome! Next on my list!
I love those flower napkins!!!

New to journaling, have worked with napkins for card making so loved how you used them for this project.
Thank you very much from another Qldlander.

I loved watching you create your colour palette; that’s not so easy for me. I also liked having you explain what you were doing as you went along. Very beautiful artwork!

Stunning idea!
I really enjoyed this and Yes, I did learn some new techniques...TFS
This is just gorgeous! I've been afraid to use napkins. No longer! Thank you!
Tip--use a pin inserted at an angle into the bottom layers of the napkin to easily separate them. 💖
Beautiful, thanks for sharing.
💜🧡
You are the first art journal artist that I have absolutely loved! I am going to buy some stencils with patterns and texture paste now.
Oh wow, thank you so much. Your comment means more than you know. Thank you and happy creating ❣️
Me too!
A tube of polyfilla also works brilliantly for texture paste. I get mine from my local Dollar store for $1.50 !
Great idea 💡
This is so beautiful! I love how it makes me feel. You are very talented! Thank you for sharing your technique. Very soothing to watch.
🤗💖
Thank you for a lovely tutorial
I love this. Thank you!
