I love these ideas. 'Shopping' in your own stash for starters. I would also recommend a 'mood box'. For me, this is where I store potential items for the project I am working on, and where all the little scraps that are generated as I work can be kept in case I need them again before the project is finished.

[@FayeDarling65]

The mood board is a lovely piece of art in itself would be nice as a wrapping paper 🐇🇬🇧🦋🦩

[@SaltLifeGypsy68]

Luise, your "Moodboard" is a work of Art itself! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💐

[@rosemarquinez1355]

Firstly, I love your papers. Secondly, being a student of art and design, this is quite logical in preparing for a project. Thirdly, the mood or atmosphere or intuition of the piece CAN be so hard because we are all creating from a gut or gotcha sense. Your explanation is excellent. Esp the color selection. I learned something new today in the idea of "ripping down" to a smaller part of something that "fits" so that it is cohesive and doesn't compete. I had never had words for that situation-observation and the simple solution of ripping down didn't blossom because I was so fixed on making it work. So thank you for reminding me that small pieces can make an impact.

[@jeanm.peterson6890]

The Mood Board idea is so wonderful. I am already working on them in my mind. I am so excited. Thank you, Thank you!

[@lorikorstanje2964]

This is art mood board is beautiful art in its self

[@misskit866]

I'm seeing this a year after you made it and am so happy I found it. A moodboard is a brilliant idea, it will help me focus, not lose the thread, rediscover treasures, and have fun designing a coherent whole. I'm subscribing and look forward to catching up on all your videos. Thank you!

[@catincj5162]

Brilliant! You have shown/ explained to me what no one else has been able to help me understand. ❤

[@nameissturdy1390]

While watching this massive creation and explanation I’m in awe. And to think you’ll do it again in German-just amazes me Luise! Your hard work is appreciated!

[@ddmattin]

This is genius! It makes so much sense to gather things that might work first, rather than my hunt for it as I’m working. Plus it gets those things we forget about into the light of day! I never thought about all the coordinating embossing powders in my stash. Thank you for this tutorial.

[@melindanaumovic8124]

Fantastic!!!!! I think your mood board IS a piece of art. I want that in my wall!!!! ❤️😁😁😁😁

[@myrnadahl105]

What a wonderful plan maker. Thank you!

[@lucyfanning7496]

I cannot thank you enough for this video. Just watching you layer things has provided me with so much inspiration.

[@nameunderconstructionthank84]

Thank you Luise. I appreciate you, like, ALOT ‼️

[@altheamathewson1677]

This is just what I was looking for!! I never really understood the process of putting together a mood board, but you explained everything so well!! I love the who what where and when as you tell us the process which makes it so much clearer and easier to understand. This is a great 'little series' from beginning to finish. Thank you, honey, for taking the time to do this for us, I have learned so much from you from day one!! You are such a great teacher and your love for us shows through. You should be very proud of yourself!! Sending lots of love and hugs to you and Gary. XXX

[@leeanngrush9211]

What a great idea…. I struggle with the issues you discussed: having cool stash, but forgetting to use pieces, or pulling up loads of things and getting overwhelmed with “too much clutter”…. Many many thanks, Luisa!

[@fleurtalbot7596]

My mood boards are simply randomly chosen images .... the subconscious mind at work doing its thing... I keep them near my desk : they inspire me and often influence the direction of my projects.

[@christinedavies336]

🤗OMG Luise -you're a girl after my own heart! 😍 🤩What a great way to get your artistic mojo going for any project. 🤔 Thankyou - so much - for sharing! 😘

[@lindagunter7811]

OMG you have me forever! Love it? ❤ will not do a journal without a moodboard again!

[@user-wv1bk9nu5e]

Благодаря за споделения опит :-) Със сигурност ще го използвам......

[@rachaelr8044]

This helps so much for my collage work. I get overwhelmed easily but this approach with the gentleness of taking weeks if I want is so good. I also want that Viva paint!!

[@AnnieInTheLight]

I had no idea I had what I had until I went shopping in my stash! This was brilliant!

[@ScraptasticPatchwork]

Luise! I had the strongest emotional response to this. It woke up so many creative feelings in me. I truly feel that this mood board idea and the principles you described was the most inspirational thing that's ever happened to me. I actually started crying. Thank you for this. Thank you!!

[@luiseheinzl]

Oh my gosh, that's awesome!!!

[@cllestienne]

What a great way to get motivated and organize ideas. 😊

[@vickygrant9472]

This could actually be a great background paper.

[@katrineleber7238]

Wow! This is EXACTLY what I needed. I have been organizing and thinking and watching videos and today I was swatching some colors just like u did. Now I need to make a mood board. I was a card maker so I have about a million different mediums. My mind kept shutting down and turning to mush. This will fix it. Thank you so much. You are way cool. Hugs, treen 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🌻🌻🌻🌻🪂🧡🤎💛

[@kristinaperinot7544]

What a FABULOUS exercise ❤️ made so much sense and can be used in a variety of projects. TFS 😊👍🏻

[@toniscott1029]

Can't wait to see what you do next!

[@Sylvia.Torres]

AMAZING! This mood board is a work of beautiful art all on its own. 😍 I love it!

[@debbiev.1311]

LOVE IT!!! 💛🧡💚 Another textile that came to mind is cheesecloth; you could dye it with oxides &/or coffee. Buttons fill me w/ joy!! Thank you Luise for being such an inspiration!!! ❤🤗

[@jolajolcia2342]

Luise, you are great teacher. This whole exercise makes a lot of sense however I know I will struggle at first. I need to practice,practice,practice. Thank you so much for being here and sharing your knowledge,experience and talent❤

[@debrafazzi5382]

Fabulous idea, helps to remind me what’s in my supplies.🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️

[@sandyfitchcorbett1782]

Wonderful teaching to a new process. Already runny through my mind how to make a folding table top that when not in use for a mood board I can fold up and tuck out of the way in my small craft room when not in use. How much fun this will be.

[@candmmom]

This was wonderful to watch!! I have never seen a mood board put together like this but it is such a great way to think about color combinations as well as textures etc for our journals. A great practice for when we are having trouble putting our journals together or having a creative block.

[@candikcan1720]

You are a ROCK STAR! This is an amazing idea and it makes so much sense! Can't wait to watch the videos that follow that show how this all comes together. Thank for sharing. MOOD BOARD METHOD it is!!!

[@trixie1556]

Luise…this is so helpful to me and I’m sure to others too. I get overwhelmed when I want to start a project. Following you from the start with one simple inspiration to mood board to, in the future, creating from the mood board, will def help make my creating process less stressful. Thank you for this series. 💜

[@debbivaughn1313]

👍👍I forgot to comment on this video the first time I watched, but thanks for sharing this fabulous Moodboard Method!🤗🥰

[@janet257]

Ingenious! This couldn’t have come at a better time for me. Will definitely be giving this a whirl. 💗

[@grahamfox931]

Hello Luise, thank you for sharing in the making of a mood board. The way you did it certainly helps. I always get so confused when I make my collage Master Boards. I think doing it your way is greatly going to improve my boards and then of course, my tags and journaling cards. Thank you for the easy and concise way in which you explain your methods, I find them really useful. As always, Blessings and hugs from Cape Town. Diana

[@jmsl910]

GENIUS! i've never heard of this strategy

[@veronim77]

This video was very helpful. Thank you for sharing , boost your creativity with the mood board method instructions.

[@amyvetter1830]

what a wonderful collection

[@AngieExploresArt]

I really like the result

[@patriciamaeanthony3838]

This is very excellent information. I usually start a project box into which I put gathered items, however, I think the mood board for spreading out the times and seeing them all together, is a great step.

[@Sholara]

I love LOVE love this! Thank you for the amazing idea!!! ❤️

[@lynettevisser669]

This was so helpful Thanks such inspiration. 👌😍👍

[@caroltanzi29]

Luise: this idea of a mood board is great. It makes so much sense. Love it! Carol from California

[@connielester1641]

I appreciate you sharing this so much. You are equipping me to grow and get better. Thanks❣️

[@msbecky]

Wow will have to watch couple of times to catch all these wonderful ideas…. Thanks for sharing this!!!!

[@k.susieroloff4801]

Such sage advise from a master mixed medium genius......😻

[@gayledeacon2203]

I can imagine the mood board itself as an art print. Thinking of the rock and lichen, maybe there are some textiles that can imitate the textures and shapes. I can imagine a collection of small bits of lace as the lichen.

[@anitajansen5610]

What a gorgeous play and result for your journal. It looks beautyfull ❤👍

[@trinapatterson8872]

Thank you, you gave me a whole new way of looking at journal arrangement. Love what you’ve placed on your mood board

[@kraftyiam]

Hallo Luise, diese Folge war fabelhaft. lovelovelove das letzte Board - und als Bild ist es einfach göttlich - danke fürs Teilen. Wenn ich festgefroren bin, muss ich das versuchen - wenn überhaupt, nur für das letzte Bild. Komisch, ich habe mehr Tinten als Oxide und Sie haben meine Meinung darüber geändert. Ich denke also, ich werde mehr Oxide bekommen. Danke noch einmal. Freue mich auf das fertige Produkt. (P.S. Ich habe letzte Nacht spät im Fernsehen zugesehen und musste hereinkommen, um einen Kommentar abzugeben, da sich das lohnt - hah)

[@Paint3dRos3]

[@janehunt6386]

Excellent. Thank you.

[@pnichols1966]

Awesome! Mood board is new to me and I plan to try one. It’s amazing to see watch what you think so to speak.

[@melindacorley7091]

Oh my goodness Luise, this moodboard idea is so interesting and a great idea. I really love how you choose the colors to match your focal image. Laying everything out this way really gives you ideas to build on from page to page. Your explanations were just awesome!! Thank you so much for doing this for us!!!! Many blessings from Tennessee, USA.

Thanks Luise, I enjoyed this very much especially how you have gone into such detail about mood boards and how to create them. This is very helpful and inspiring . 😊

[@TheresaPetermann]

your mood board is so fun and full of interesting items. love it. have to start digging through my goodies to find some things of my own. thanks as always for sharing and the inspiration.

[@kraftyiam]

Howdy Luise, this episode was fabulous. lovelovelove the final board - and as a picture it's simply divine - thanks for sharing. When I find myself frozen I must try this - if anything just for the final pic. Funny I have more inks than oxides and you've changed my mind on them. So I guess I will be getting more oxides. Thanks again. Looking forward to the finished product. (P.S. I watched late last night on TV and had to come in to comment as this is worth it - hah )

[@sandikalin636]

Thank you , this was so inspiring and informative. Looking forward to the upcoming videos.

[@prof.mommyarty]

I always get overwhelmed trying to colour match and end up with so many supplies and options (or worse, buy something new 🤦) and it takes forever to get started. This looks like a fab way to focus, especially the swatching. You're sorted for browns 🙊.thank you as always for your insight! Oil painting is so much more simple 😄. I'm going to work with your Sa brina kit soon so definitely be trying this. Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖
