[@artfulevidence]

+Fiona van Buuren Thank you :-)

[@craftingqueen7596]

I have found this to be so very therapeutic for me! I’ve only been paper crafting for about a year. I have not been consistent, because not knowing how to draw the images in my head was frustrating! Then I found STAMPS & went overboard buying so many! Lol 😂 Now, the state of the world & personal hardships have caused me to need to craft more as a form of therapy! It helps me cope! I’m learning from your videos! I am drawn to this type of journaling...maybe even more than writing, which I’ve done for years! Thank you for sharing your gift with us! I clicked the bell just in case you decide to create more! 🤗💝

[@artfulevidence]

I will share more one day! The world is in turmoil, and it is very humbling that during these times my work can bring some peace to even just one person. Thankyou again for watching!

[@craftingqueen7596]

RachO113 my pleasure & I’m happy to read you will share again one day! The world needs what you have to offer! Look at the title of your journal entry...”Houses of HOPE”! I’ve been giving out cards related to “hope” & they have been greatly appreciated by the recipients! Everyone needs HOPE! I’m praying for better days ahead! 🙏🏾 I won’t take up anymore of your time. Thanks so much for replying! Stay safe! 🤗💝

[@poppyfields7217]

Stunning. Love the way you did the little flowers.

[@artfulevidence]

[@pfengwa44]

Gorgeous everything. I love what I have seen of Silks but I haven't used them yet. Something to look forward to. The house stamps are delightfully whimsical; the bright colors really make them pop. I absolutely love this. Thanks.

[@artfulevidence]

+pfengwa44 You're welcome, and thank you :-)

[@dwyllisharrison6489]

Oh my! Another of your gorgeous fairy/elf scenes .....I absolutely loved you Secret Garden art journal page .....& I absolutely love this one too. They are both Soooooo magical. After watching your Secret Garden video, I dashed off to Lavinia stamps & bought three, & now I need to buy some more, as I don't have any of the little houses or toadstools. They should use you as their Design Team lol. I can hardly wait to see you using the wonderful Lavinia stamps again. TFS.

[@artfulevidence]

+Dwyllis Harrison Thank you Dwyllis, glad you enjoy Lavinia stamps too, they are truely wonderful to work with :-)

[@melissaedwards7431]

I watched this a while back and just had to find it again! You give me so much inspiration. When your children and grandchildren have all moved away or have a social life of their own it gets kind of lonely. I have decided to start creating again and this is one of my favorite videos. Thank you so much. Hugs to you!

[@artfulevidence]

[@dcottrell01]

Your page is so whimsical and beautiful!! I just love it. I would love to see flips of your journals. I also wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed your 7 day series Halloween cards.

[@artfulevidence]

Thank you very much Norma. Glad you like it :-)

[@llevin67]

Gorgeous! Love the colors and your style.

[@artfulevidence]

+Lisa Levin Thank you :-)

[@iartistdotme]

This is GORGEOUS! I don't think I've seen another stamped scene that has as much depth and it immediately drew me into the page. I couldn't wait to see what you did to achieve this and was amazed that you didn't do a whole lot - the pathway provided the look while your darker house and increasingly smaller flowers reinforced it. At first I thought the flowers were patches of mist/fog that had settled in until I watched the video and saw it up close - too much halloween LOL. The flowers are just so pretty with their different colors added. Beautiful page for a beautiful sentiment.

[@artfulevidence]

+mary w Thanks Mary, really glad you liked it :-)

[@emilybemily4397]

Fabulous piece! I really love the vibrancy. Your skill makes it all seem much easier than it is to achieve such great results.

[@artfulevidence]

+Emily Bemily Thanks very much :-)

[@nbenefiel]

I love what you do but your Lavinia stamp ones are my faves. They are magical.

[@artfulevidence]

[@adrinem4513]

Lovely! I adore those little houses. I enjoy watching your process. Thanks for sharing!

[@artfulevidence]

Thanks very much. Glad you liked it :-)

[@catwmn1]

I just love your art journal pages. They always come out looking so beautiful. I wish I could art journal like you. I stopped art journaling a few months ago because it all looked like one hot mess after another. If I thought for even a moment that I could art journal like you, I'd be back doing it all the time.

[@artfulevidence]

Thanks! I think art journaling is a bit of a journey, you have to work through a lot of hot messes until you find things that work for you. I would really encourage you to have another go, and accept the pages you don't like as part of a learning process. If you only take away what doesn't work in the beginning, you have still learned something to take forward into your next page.

[@catrunn2382]

I love your work and thank you for inspiring me to be creative. Lots of hugs from Istanbul.

[@artfulevidence]

Thank you :-)

[@stephaniepaxton6133]
