Thank you so much for this! I'm still learning and I had someone tell me I need to learn composition. I thought it looked okay.. Anyway thanks again for the help

[@angelbabesuz1612]

Fab tips, and I like how you talk loud and clear, I don't have to use my speaker to hear you! 👌😊

[@TaraJacobsen]

SOOO funny... I have been making them quieter because someone said they were too loud!

[@angelbabesuz1612]

@@TaraJacobsen not too loud at all hun 👌♥️

[@bethlong3011]

Too loud unwatchable

[@sandyfranklin1123]

Excellent art rules to follow!! I sure miss seeing your imaginative art journaling pages regularly!!😥

[@susangregory205]

Such great advice - wish I’d seen you so much sooner - makes so much good sense to why I struggle with composition- thank you ❤️

[@TaraJacobsen]

Once you know the "rules" you can go back and see why something might have not felt like it all went together exactly right!!! Just remember you can ALWAYS break the rules too...:)

@@TaraJacobsen I'm so glad that I warmed your heart today. I am a new subscriber and stumbled across your channel this morning and I learned so much in a short period of time. You offered a fresh perspective and ideas that I have not yet come across. I saved the video for reference. I'm excited to see what other videos you offer!

[@ShoshiPlatypus]

What a fun video about a fun journal! “Humans think that trees are green” lol lol! So what if it’s a broccoli? Love it!! Your journals are gorgeous, so full of colour and quirkiness.

[@TaraJacobsen]

Thanks Shoshi! It is so fun to see how you can fool people!

[@louisebaxter1026]

I never thought of light at the top etc.I specially like number 10...ypu do you.After a few years I have realised my thing is to put silly phrases from used large print books on most collages to tell a daft story.

[@suzyallen1726]

Great tutorial. Interesting to watch how you have changed your style since you made this video. Now you do borders

[@TaraJacobsen]

I know right?!?!? Wait til you see the journal walk through... it is fun to see how far I have come!!!

[@pamalapeterson5352]

You do not have to speak so loudly, please!

[@TaraJacobsen]

That's fair! I probably can't speak softer, but I can fix it in the editing! Thanks for the feedback...:)

[@angelbabesuz1612]

@@TaraJacobsen Speak as loud as you want girl, it's better than not being able to hear you at all! 😊
