Thanks for watching

[@angelavincent2870]

I love watching your videos. No unnecessary chattering. You speed thru the mundane parts and you clearly explain what you’re doing and why. I really like your channel! Please continue sharing with us! 💙💜❤️

[@ShanoukiArt]

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback ❤️

[@SherryHill-k5y]

This is so masterful! Love your use of cheesecloth and then coloring it. Just beautiful and not cookie cutter!!!❤ Art is what is inside of you and you have it!!!

[@ShanoukiArt]

Thank you so much 💙💜

[@marjoriedowden1585]

This is a really Great Journal. I love the shaker card that you made. But the page you tore out, the splattered one, was one I really liked, LOL. I had even gone back to it several times to look at it again. It's so funny how everyone's taste can be so different, you keep going back to it because you didn't care for it, and I keep going back to look at it because I did like it.🤣😂🙃 I'm learning a lot as I watch your video's, Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge with your community of viewers.

[@ShanoukiArt]

Thank you so much ☺️ yes, art is so subjective isn’t it, I am so happy you love my work 🥰

[@lericamims]

I love your elements! I have great ideas for my pieces!

[@ShanoukiArt]

💙

[@LaBonita1965]

I like that you dont talk entirely through the whole video but just when youre explaining what youre doing, youre not annoying and you do very Beautiful work, its very relaxing to watch and Im learning alot from you thank you🥰

[@ShanoukiArt]

Thank you so much :-)

[@juliebell1609]

I have always loved your work. This is by far the most helpful and inspirational video I’ve seen in a long time.

[@ShanoukiArt]

💙

[@ShoshiPlatypus]

Just gorgeous... Fabulous colour combination, and I love the sea theme. Loads of interesting texture, too. I like your use of the scrap of cardstock where you'd punched out the holes. I keep my medication pack leaflets which are already accordion folded, and punch holes in them before unfolding them. When you unfold them you get a kind of random but organised pattern of holes, if that makes sense! I stencil through them which colours them and gives me another interesting background, and I can tear them up and use them in collage.

[@ShanoukiArt]

💙 - great idea with the leaflets!

[@edietweedy2400]

So gorgeous! It’s so refreshing to see a junk journal that isn’t all brown. I love those of course but these mermaid colors really change things up. Love your videos!! I’m often turned off by all the chattering so find yours really calming!

[@ShanoukiArt]

Thank you so much!💖

[@lisagordon6355]

fussy cutting a seahorse! That’s dedication.

[@ShanoukiArt]

Dedication? or craziness? lol, and I am not the biggest fan of fussy cutting, but I seem to do it alot :D

[@djpelissey]

Thank you for saying there are no right or wrong ways to decorate your journal. I feel so inadequate when looking at all the beautiful work you and others do on KZbin. I've only been doing this for a few months and can definitely see improvement. One day I hope to make something that I feel so proud of that I will actually share it!

[@ShanoukiArt]

💙

[@MsLouisVee]

Thank you, thank you for not chattering, gossiping, giggling and talking about your personal life. Wonderful. New sub.

[@JoyfulMakesandFinds]

I could watch you do that painting and stenciling on the pages all day long ~ I was mesmerized! You have such a good eye!

[@ShanoukiArt]

💙

[@paulette44martin]

I’ve already used the technique of coloring cheesecloth by rubbing ink pad on acrylic block spray a little water and pushing the cloth around to absorb the wet color. Love it. Plus the other way to color the background. Love you..

[@ShanoukiArt]

So happy that you are creating wonderful things :-)

[@shondra6]

I didnt really notice but you only glue the edges of the paper not the whole paper, I will do that on mine now;l I am new at journaling and you are my inspiration for all my journals. thank u for sharing and i love your videos.

[@ShanoukiArt]

Happy creating 🦋

[@pilarcervera8672]

Simplemente espectacular. Gracias x compartir.

[@scrapbooking100]

Love it

[@ZealousZest]

Even tho 3 years ago . . . I watch this over and over and over . . . it's so good!! and filled with ideas!! THANK YOU!!!! PS: how do you keep your glue gun from making "strings" after you press the glue out?

[@ShanoukiArt]

Thank you so much! Oh I get strings too, not sure how not too, I just use a tweezer or my fingers to remove them. I do however have a good hot glue gun that is not drippy at all which also helps minimise the strings 🤗💖

[@carmemsilva2195]

Amei. Muito lindo!

[@leotapentecost]

You inspired me to try I do mixed media badly but I keep trying. I must admit I became very happy doing my small project. It’s very addictive I hope to get much better but trying is what is fun. What kind of stick glue do you use mine doesn’t do well.

[@ShanoukiArt]

Just keep at it, and remember there are no mistakes in art. I use all different one, but my fave is UHU 💛🧡❤️

[@sallymander1068]

I love watching these types of videos. I'm curious how long it took you you in real time to decorate this journal?

[@ShanoukiArt]

Hi Sally, I don’t remember exactly but roughly about 8 hours in total over multiple days 😌

[@sallymander1068]

Thank you

[@karenjohnson6062]

Please, what is your cover made of? I love using boxes from our food to use as covers. Love what you're doing to this journal; its gorgeous! Thank you for sharing!

[@ShanoukiArt]

Thank you so much, I always use cereal boxes for my covers. Hope that helps 😃

[@ljbj4]

this is great! how do you decide which adhesive to use- wet or dry? thanks!

[@ShanoukiArt]

Usually what ever is nearest to me :-) but if am gluing thinner cardstock I tend to use a glue stick, for thicker cardstock, I use craft glue, and if something is chunky or sticking down to a lot of mixed media I use the hot glue gun. Hope this helps ❤️

[@ljbj4]

yes, thx! i appreciate your response!!

[@christinabodah1711]

What size is this journal. It looks a little larger than what I usually make. What papers do you use for this size book? Love your work!

[@ShanoukiArt]

Thank you so much ❤ it slightly bigger than A5. I use and A4 paper folded in half as a rough guide, most of my papers are A4 folded in half. Hope that helps :-)

[@jandelano]

Very nice to watch, but I really wished you would have shown putting the grommets in the cover. That is important,and I never have seen it done.
