[@francinebeckett8365]

What a gorgeous set of books. I will be making my project, hopefully starting today. I love your art. Thank you.

[@carlal9984]

Loved the video! You and Hannah created beautiful ones. I created some of my own using your books, I shared it in the group. Thank you for sharing your books.🌷

[@MaremiSmallArt]

[@resatobin4303]

These are so beautiful. I appreciate that they all match, they have backgrounds and words, they contain focal points and mounting spots for the focal points. Images come in various sizes and color depth to fit the message. We get whatever we need to finish a piece! (Except glue, lol) You are a master! Tx

[@jeanmcgeoy2842]

Marta, thank you for sharing the flip through!! I just received the Bits & Bobs (overjoyed with all the images!) Anxiously awaiting Whispers of Christmas to arrive! Your books are all so creative and have such beautiful images! I've been mixing and matching, having so much fun creating! Thank you so much! 😊❤

Hi Marta I agree with you, it is a magical world we create and the size does not matter as we have our own little story to tell, and not everyone has the same story, I am so happy you have created all of these magical books, I have everyone of them and I also bought the fairies in bloom book for a friend who is having a hard time right now caring for a loved one, so thought I would buy one of your magical books so she can have a day for just her to create her magic. I also bought one for my granddaughter for Christmas. I plan to buy more books in the new year as my autumn book is just about empty as well as the Christmas fairies. .. Marta you are amazing I just received my two Whispers of Christmas backgrounds and Bits and Bobs the other day. So I thought I would watch your video just to have a look of what is in them as i have not opened mine yet. I have been using your magical rice papers as well and I have added you to a few of my art creations, I hope you do not mind. As I feel you need to be part of my page as you created this magic for us. Wishing you, Lucas, Emily and Hannah a very Merry Christmas and all the best for the new year xxx love you lots xxx

[@denisegallant4647]

Marta, I love your books so much! I "read" them at night, in bed, and dream of living in the pages

[@fannyledevedec1924]

Bonjour, j'adore tout ce que vous faites, je viens de découvrir et je suis vraiment très fan. J'aimerais commencer à créer des pages avec vos livres et vos conseils car j'ai vu qu'on pouvait les commander sur Amazon. Cependant, je ne comprends absolument pas l'anglais😭. Existe-t-il une possibilité d'écouter vos vidéos en français, ou n'y a-t-il aucune option pour cela ?

[@vickimadsen7161]

@@fannyledevedec1924 Bonjour. Je suis moi-même une grande fan des livres et des vidéos de Marta, même si je comprends bien l'anglais mais ne parle pas français. J'essaie de vous aider du mieux que je peux ici via Google Translate. Lorsque vous êtes dans sa vidéo, il y a un petit engrenage dans le coin droit, si vous appuyez dessus, des options apparaîtront et si vous appuyez sur sous-titres, puis traduction automatique, vous pourrez choisir le français. du moins, je peux le faire sur mon iPad, alors je me demande si vous le pouvez. j'espère que cela a du sens.

[@vickimadsen7161]

@@fannyledevedec1924 il y a donc un bouton sous les sous-titres appelé bande-son. si vous appuyez dessus, vous pouvez choisir le français, du moins sur mon iPad, alors je me demande si vous le pouvez aussi. J'espère que ça a fonctionné 😃😃😃

[@fannyledevedec1924]

@@vickimadsen7161 merci beaucoup 🙏🙏cela fonctionne bien j'ai la traduction sur l'écran. Je pourrais donc suivre vos réalisations acheter le matériel et les refaire. Je suis très contente. Merci beaucoup 😊 🙏

Congratulations with the books I have someone buying them for me because the sending fee are so high at Amazon to Iceland ❤❤😢

Ouiii cela a fonctionne👍🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 merciii beaucoup 🙏🙏🙏

[@zormier2002]

I love them!

[@johncatherinemitchell4619]

So very beautiful ❤️ I have 3 books already but love them all, only very large cards might be more expensive to post in Ireland. But otherwise the shape doesn't matter when posting in Ireland x

[@amyvetter1830]

square cards are more expensive to mail in the US

[@MaremiSmallArt]

Yes, unfortunately but 😊 you can gift them personally ❤

[@4ke_1978]

I love square cards, but I only make them if I can give them personally. In Belgium they are double the price to send by post, even the tiny ones 😢 . Lovely lovely books, Marta😍😍😍. It is so weird that around the world everybody is already using them to create, while you, the author hadn't got them yet 🤯 I would think that Amazon would send it first to the maker 😰 I am addicted to your books, have them all 🫣 I hope to have some time to create in the christmasholiday, because it has been a while now 🫣😢 and I need it so hard to wander in the magical world in my head...

[@MaremiSmallArt]

I hope you will soon have a lot of creative time ✂️😍 magic is around the corner 😊

[@LindaSchellings]

Dear marta, I love your books. I hope that there comes a bits and bobs book that is not christmas releated, that would be lovely 😊 greetings from linda

[@MaremiSmallArt]

I hope so too! Ps. Some books of this kind are in the making 😅✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️

[@LindaSchellings]

So we have something to look forward to 🤗 thank you so much that you create such lovely books for us 😁🤗

[@jeanettereynolds3151]

I loved chubby fairy so much I made one for my 9 yr grandaughter.horrified when she burst into tears she thought I was replicating her.unknown to me shes only a little plump but is getting bullied at school that young.if your kids don't communicate to grandparents how was I suposed to know.i chose it as the face and hair matched our ava.now we grandparents are being punished and now alone at Christmas.uk

[@MaremiSmallArt]

I am very sorry to hear... They should know better that you didn't have anything bad in mind and if they decided to act this way then it is their own decision. We too should know that giving a card with a chubby fairy to someone may cause a mix of feelings especially if someone is young. In general we should be more mindful about young generation because they are much more fragile these days. I hope you will see your family soon

[@theresarasche3173]

Sorry Marta, but I don’t see where to get the sparkling water color in the description.

[@janehoare7060]

Hello, Marta, I started to follow you when you did your watercolour work. This craft is something I’m not really familiar with. My question is, is it your artwork in these books? Thankyou.

[@pypciorobipyp652]

They are hers in the sense that AI generated these images for Marta. It's sad, very sad.

[@janehoare7060]

@ Thankyou for your response. So, Marta purposely had AI to create these images? Is that correct?

[@MaremiSmallArt]

Hello Jane, thanks for being here ! I haven't paint those on papers (I wish :) but not enough talent or time in life to create this many choices to use in our craft) but created them digitally, every single images here is carefully created by me. Join my Facebook group: Cut & Collage with Maremi where with over 18K members we have tons of fun while creating all kind of projects using books but not only :) have a lovely day xx

[@MaremiSmallArt]

I believe that embracing innovation, like ai, doesn’t diminish the value of traditional methods but complements them. It opens up exciting possibilities while still honouring the core of what makes creative work authentic and heartfelt. It helps generate visuals, the heart of the work - the storytelling, the selection and the overall vision - is deeply personal and rooted in my passion. I use many tools much like a paintbrush or a design program, procreate and editing software to create something meaningful and beautiful.

[@janehoare7060]

@@MaremiSmallArt Thankyou so much for replying, Marta and explaining the process. Creativity in the modern world. I do like the results of your imagination and foresight. There is not enough time in your life to pursue all your artistic aspirations, I believe. So, I admire those who try. Wishing you a very happy Christmas.

[@ritascheerlinck4013]

MARTHA in je boek whispers of CHRISTMAS HEB ik in dit boek allemaal blauw lijnen op je bladeren aan je boven kant DIT ZOU NIET MOGEN HE !!!!!!!

[@pypciorobipyp652]

Hello Marta. I always come back to your videos and they were always full of creativity and love for creating. I wish I had not decided to come to your channel now. It pains me to see that you not only use AI images but also sell soulless AI waste. I feel very let down.

[@MaremiSmallArt]

honestly, if you would look around you would be surprised that ai is everywhere, in craft especially since many many years... but no one was speaking about it. What makes you sad ? the fact that thousands of people feel inspired ? that many decided to do some art for the first time since my books came out ? does it make you sad that thousands are happy when using books, they feel confident to make collages, cards and more ? this is very unfair and judgmental comment. we all are entitled to our opinions however... You feel let down ? me too, do you know why ? because you judged me and my hard creative work before paying a little bit more attention to the whole new movement that my books brought... This is by far one of the best things I did for my crafting community and thousands of people in my Facebook group sharing their art daily is the best proof. Rather than be against it why not trying to see and feel for yourself how wonderful it is to have the books, cut them and tell the stories. Being open minded in life helps a lot. Ps. It is sad that you have never left any comment before over the years but now for the first time decided to do it and it isn't an uplifting one but quite the opposite... Have a great day, Marta xx
