TYFS your different journals w/ us...they're each so unique & beautiful!! Your stitched cover is gorgeous, a big YES to the "no rules" intro. page to your packaging journal, & love the "be gentle w/ yourself" message of today's journal pages!! Giving yourself permission to play, to try new things, & continuing to take care of yourself is so inspiring, encouraging & you are a great role model!! ❤🤗❤🤗❤
I absolutely love the stitched cover you’ve made for your altered book! It’s really lovely and so effective! I also love the first “no rules” page of your packaging journal! It just sort of gives you “permission” to do absolutely anything in it! I think sometimes we feel a bit inhibited to let ourselves go with our journalling and I think a permission page is brilliant! Lovely pages as always Helen! So inspiring! Take care x
I’m so happy you like them Heather, thank you. I completely agree that we should be able to let ourselves go in our journals. I think it’s so important, but for some reason we stop ourselves sometimes 🤗💕
Hello Helen! Enjoying my coffee while watching you start your week in a relaxing way. Have you ever done a handwriting video? You make it look so easy.
Helen: as usual, you have done a wonderful job of collaging and journaling. I admire your organizational skills and especially your talent. When our world gets back to some regularity, I hope to visit the UK. It’s something I have always wanted to do. I have always loved everything British, although I’m a native Californian. Thank you for making my Saturday morning a pleasant one. Carol from California
So soothing to watch and listen as ever. I love that you make it so achievable. It's also encouraging to hear you say that you sometimes need vibrant colours in your journals. I watch so many videos where bright colour seems to be frowned upon and it's covered with gesso and dulled down. But colour is what makes me happy and I love to use it in my work and don't want to feel guilty when I do. So thank you for 'giving me permission' to use colour!
I’m so happy you enjoyed the video Clare. I love switching between vibrant and muted tones. Our journals are an expression of ourselves, so it seems natural to me that we will all have different preferences and that these might change on different days. I hope you have lots of fun using all the colours that feel right 🤗💕
I love your fountain pen! I've got the same in Prussian Blue and just adore it. So lovely sitting here waking up with my cup of tea. The subtle stamping adds so much to the page.
This is lovely. I’ve been thinking about my travelers journal that has been untouched for some time. You’ve motivated me to get reacquainted with my old journal friend.
