Illustrated Journal Flip Through 🖤 Visual Diary for March 2024 🖤 Journal Page Layout Ideas 

Helen, what a wonderful journey this video represents! Pages that insist on happening, pages you hate, colors you love, it’s so lovely that you open your heart so freely. Thank you.❤

Hi Helen: Really enjoyed your flip through. It’s so you and wonderfully crafted! You have included some original art and other pieces that are creative and visually inspiring. Thanks for sharing. 💜😎🇺🇸

Going back to basics, nice

I very much enjoyed your pages. The only rules for junk and art journaling are those you impose on yourself. If you feel like breaking them or pushing the boundaries it will always be to the good.

Love this journal! I enjoy doing blind contour drawings - they always look full of life. Yours are much more elegant than mine!

Love your creative process!!! ❤

That was fun. It is inspiring. Happy Easter.

Oh my goodness Helen! The rabbit lady is the best!!!!!! I cover alot of people's faces with animals 😂 Maybe subconsciously I love animals more than people 🤫😂

Lovely work

I love your journal! I love that the page layouts are so varied and the rabbit head lady made me laugh😂. It’s a really inspiring video. Regarding the grid Journalling comment, I started one following your earlier video, and I have to be honest, I prefer it when it goes outside the box. My journal, my rules! 😁💪😊

I like this journal, the different layouts make it really interesting. I’m going to use your idea of using tags to note down my own thoughts of journalling , what works and what doesn’t. I’m beginning to use my own drawings from college (many years ago!), so will use them for pockets e5c, thank you. Very inspiring.❤

I've never seen a journal that looks like that layout. I've seen basic writing journals or travellers notebooks. Ive seen art journaling. I've seen junk journalling. And bullet journalling. And smash books or glue books. But yours is something new that I haven't seen before and is intriguing. It's not "art" per se...by that I don't mean it's not pleasing to the eye! But art journals are about creating a spread that is sort of mixed media "art" pages just to create art for the sake of it. This is like painting by numbers...but "journalling by pictures". It makes it more curious to decipher. A bit like trying to interpret hieroglyphics. It's not a writing journal nor is it an art journal... it's like a lil sneak peek into your thoughts at the time, providing someone can "read" your artististic collection of clues. I like it! In fact I like it a lot! I saw one of the channels I watch, pop up a video a few days ago, yet ANOTHER video showing how to make a "basic beginner's journal" and honestly, it wound me up! All of the channels ALREADY have beginner's journal videos, some of the channels have NUMEROUS tutorial videos showing newbies how to pamphlet stitch some paper together. I don't mean to sound moany, but there's already a ton of these same tutorials out there and they're all pretty much the same! I was pamphlet stitching papers together as a child for God's sake... it's not rocket science. No one who is into junk journalling needs yet another basic tutorial. I very almost had the urge to get rid of all my supplies the other day because I was starving for something new! Something to reignite a reason to bother stitching papers together in the first place. And here it is! I'm SOOOOO glad I clicked to watch! Honestly, I hadn't lost my mojo, my mojo had been abducted, held hostage, tortured, abused and then sold into slavery abroad! Even Interpol couldn't trace it's whereabouts! 😂😂😂 I feel enlightenment and inspiration. Picture montage clues that tell the story, but not as obviously as an art journal does. This style needs a bit of interpretation to piece it together, because the mash up is artistic and beautiful, yet somewhat vague. A bit like inkblot tests or magic eye pictures, the more you look the more you see, and then the deeper meaning comes forward. Ok I'm gonna shut up now, as I'm making myself sound like one of those poncey pretentious art critics by the way I'm trying to describe my intrigue...and I couldn't be an art critic if my life depended on it. I'm neither poncey nor pretentious, I don't have any desire to try to sound above my station, which is just as well seeing as I'm common as muck! 😂 But I like this. I like it a lot. There's something "hidden in plain sight" about it, and I love that! 😘😘😘
