Tapping & scratching #1 - asmr/ relaxation- The One Woman

[@AnnettBB]

It's June 2021, and I still enjoy watching it over and over again 😊👍🏻🌷

[@TryingTripmine29]

I look back on this fondly. I was about… maybe five or six when I discovered this channel? I remember this specific video. Something in my brain remembered every minute, each sound you did, each action, I even anticipated some of the scenes… I’ll watch these videos to keep me sane for a while, in trying times. Thanks for the memories…

[@dangmiaaXo]

I first saw this video over 10 years ago & it was always a favorite of mine. I’m so glad to have rediscovered it.

[@MurmursofTheSoul]

This book has been one of the hugest inspirations in my life. I think about this video from time to time, and watched it again now that I've gotten into scrapbooking and I am still completely in awe. Stupendous work, you are one of the artists that heavily inspire me

[@JJ-qh5yc]

This was the first ever asmr I’ve ever watched

[@bonecharm]

god I miss her videos

[@miky988you]

It’s 2023, your videos still help me with headache. You’re one of my favorite asmr artist ❤🌸

[@WhatisASMR]

I still love coming back to this beautiful video almost 11 years later... and I love what you did to alter the book. Btw there's a very amusing review of this book on Amazon (the one review it has - apparently not a popular book).

[@Luchessa]

This is what i call an {Oldie but Goodie}! (Can't believe you made it over 2 years ago actuall.) Always good to go back to this video and just to listen to all the different sounds. The One Woman makes me calm & sleepy. Thanks ones again dear. :) xo

[@SilentCitadel]

it's weird right? so long!

[@Luchessa]

I guess time is flying by when you're having fun ;) Or in this case - when you're super relaxed! :)

[@Imwhicho]

I absolutely agree. This is one of my all-time favorites that I keep coming back to.

[@Ratty13rat]

yay this is what i was looking for! your asmr videos are not only relaxing and tingling, but theyre also very inspirational. thank you!

[@SilentCitadel]

Thanks! I just basically am doing what I do anyway, but this way I get to share it with awesome people and spread some zs.

[@SomedayWellFly]

Holy crap, this looks incredible. The book looks both beautiful and eerie and I love the sounds of the tapping and scratching and the pages turning. I'm really impressed.

[@richardcahill4419]

5 years ago. Damn, love this video

[@cutepumpkin4744]

You’re art is SO interesting, I love it!!

[@exposuretochaos]

EVERYTHING about this video is amazing... the awesome sounds, the ART, the significance behind the art. Looks like something I would create if my mind was more focused and i had the materials. So amazinnngg!

[@Ecesarsmaz]

Old style is the best style

[@funkypunkypine]

I've sat down no fewer than 2 dozen times attempting to do altered book art or art journaling and I always end up quitting because I feel so overwhelmed by all the options and I'm not creative enough, or something like that. I love seeing all your art. It's inspiring!

[@whisperbooks]

LOVED this (even though the defacing of the book makes me a tiny bit sad, haha). When you were tapping/scratching the little (metal?) clock, I got total shivers, and I have never actually gotten shivers from an asmr video before. So, bravo! And thanks for making this :)

[@GleamingWhispers]

such a beautiful piece of art. your tapping videos are always the ones I like best!

[@danny4everloved]

beautiful book ^-^ and very relaxing video!! I also love your rings by the way xD!! Awesome first video Thank You :D

[@redrosewhispers]

Oh my goodness! :) This sums up in my mind everything i'd want from an asmr book sounds video, everything is perfection :) ♥

[@AlexaVonSuess]

I have to keep a visual journal akin to this one for one of my drawing classes. This was a fantastic inspiration for when I was brain dead and out of ideas. Thank you so much love!

[@Leask17]

I LOVE what you've done with the book! It's so beautiful.

[@xoxoallieexoxo]

This must be before the days of "good evening youtube" lol

[@pookfairy]

I wanna say thank you for these, I got in a big fight with my grandmother today over something completely stupid and this helped me clear my head and relax.

[@Pandrina]

very relaxing! and I love this upcycled kind of art

[@ASMRlove]

aaaaaaaaamazing :) And wow, especially amazing for it being your first video! Great job!

[@poeira1983]

I can't believe this only has 12,634 views it by far one of the best ASMR vids about!

[@degierconny2702]

So creative and the scratching is amazing.

[@UrbanWhispers]

I like what you've done with the book! You should show us the completed version when it's all over :D Great video, too!

[@kitanadari]

Wow. Fantastic sounds video! The book is beautiful, as well. (The window at 7:45 is amazing!!!)

[@TrixiWhispers]

I love what you did with the book.. so clever! And great ASMR! Thanks for the vid :)

[@SilentCitadel]

@mulledmurmurs Thank you. Yes, it's Tim Holtz distress crackle paint. I love that stuff. It provides exceptional texture.

[@oWhisperingWillow]

This is great! I love it. Your very creative, now you have to make a video showing us how you did this. I want to try to make one now.

[@AwsumCherry]

Wow, that was awesome! I've never seen anyone do that with a book before, this was pure entertainment lol.

[@ninja78pro]

coolest scrapbook i have ever seen

[@CocoCoolness]

oh and u put so much work into this, its truly beautiful and so professional. i would buy it from you (:

[@SilentCitadel]

@kitanadari Thank you! I am still working on it, as you can see- but I'm pretty happy with it so far! I really appreciate your comment!

[@SilentCitadel]

:D thanks! This was my very first video, I made it over a year ago, and people still watch it. That makes me so darn happy

[@jennyrvp]

Excellent video. Came over from gentlewhispering's channel :) Was going to recommend Tim Holtz stuff to you, you seem to have similar styles. I love him. Subbed!

[@SilentCitadel]

@Rockerbella12 Yay! I'm delighted you dig it. I've done several pages since this and will probably be making an update about it soon :)

[@musicmaniac95]

That book is sooooooooo cool. Oh my gosh it's awesome what you did to it!

[@SilentCitadel]

@AwsumCherry Thank you! You would not believe some of the altered books out there- they make mine look positively amaturish- there are books on how to make altered books, no kidding- but I'm still fairly happy with what I've done so far

[@torichristianson8890]

lol You have made the asmr handbook!! Love the artwork!

[@demimojocoamsihu8]

I love this altered concept and thank you so much for the inspiration. I am definitely going to start one. Was so engaged with each page and then blown away by the shadow box! What did you use to glue the pages together if you don't mind me asking? TFS !

[@umbreonclan]

this is beautiful! you are extremely creative.

[@SilentCitadel]

@Bhav341 It is coral! Good call. Yeah, I've seen a lot of altered book projects- many people turn them into jurnals or sketchbooks or whatever- which is totally cool- but I don't journal very much, and I think my multimedia is better than my drawing, so I decided to just fill the whole thing. It's a REALLY fun process, I reccomend giving it a shot!

[@SilentCitadel]

(and thank you for the nice compliment about the book itself, I really appreciate that!!!)

[@SilentCitadel]

@exposuretochaos Awesome! I'm SO glad you enjoyed it. Keep watching- maybe you'll see more stuff you fancy. Thank you for checking my videos out!!!!! Have a great day!

[@SilentCitadel]

@virtuallytess I am *almost* positive it came from the cabinet card gallery online- but it's possible I found it elsewhere.

[@SilentCitadel]

@SomedayWellFly What a wonderful thing to say. It's funny, I used the book for the sounds it produced, but people have such nice things to say about how it looks too. It's unbeleivably cool to hear that kind of thing, so THANK YOU!

[@SwansAndStorms]

This is beautiful! You're very talented

[@Glambertx96]

This was amazing!!! I especially love the page at 2:31. I'd hang it on my wall if it was bigger and framed. I wish I could make something like this; it's so beautiful :) How did you come up with the idea and where'd you get all the pictures and materials?

[@SilentCitadel]

@Xbogey Thank you so much! I hope then, you will be happy to know I've just finished a new one, and I'll be uploading it shortly. I am so excited to get such a nice response from people so quickly! wow! *blush*

[@strawberryskulls87]

this book is beautiful, great idea, love messing about with mixed media :)

[@SilentCitadel]

I thought it was pretty dreadful too- lol- I'm so glad you like it now though!

[@SilentCitadel]

@UrbanWhispers I want to keep doing videos of making pages as I go along till I'm done :)

[@vernabee123]

ohmygash that window thing you made in the book is amazing!! :O your book project is just so wonderful, are you going to finish it??

[@SilentCitadel]

@celena028 Yes, I altered this book. All the art I show on this channel is my own :). It's called an "altered book" and it's like using pages of an old book as small art canvases. If you google altered book, you'll be AMAZED by some of the stuff people do with crappy novels and outdated textbooks. Way cool. Thank you!

[@RissaStar95]

I just love this! How did you make the window? It looks like you added extra pages in and glued them somehow but I don't know how you would cut the window in with all the glue that you would be cutting through? I wanted to make something similar because this inspired me so much. =]

[@mulledmurmurs]

I love art books like this! Your's is very lovely, as are the sounds you can make from it. Might I ask you you got the crackled texture on some of the pages, like the silver at 2:30?

[@gaayfaceultimate]

What a great idea for an art project!

[@TheSimeow]

that is so creative... why punish the tree that was killed to make this book... you gave the tree a new meaning!

[@SilentCitadel]

@GentleWhispering Thank you Maria, I really appreciate your kind words! I will definitely be making more

[@CaliDreamin74]

Wow. This is amazing! Both the video and your incredible artistic talent! Just...WOW! :)

[@RissaStar95]

did you add any extra pages in? and I normally use elmers glue mixed with water to make my own modge podge. Will that work? Thanks :)

[@SilentCitadel]

@LittleSoundsMonkey No. It's all kind of meant to be vaguely 'girl power' but really really loosely- it's not terribly cohesive, though I've tried to sort of make it all match at least a little. Some of the 2 page speads are meant to be a single piece, whereas others are individual and seperate. Thanks for asking :)

[@SilentCitadel]

@Leask17 Thank you! It's a really really fun project.

[@Doodledoo92]

how did you do the silvery page i love the noise

[@SilentCitadel]

@Clutterbrains The cabinet card gallery for one, but also several photoblogs, lots of google image search- lol. I coudn't do this without the internet!

[@MercuryRizing777]

What a pretty art journal, where do you find the vintage women's photos? and at 2:32 is that metalic silver paint on that page? I love your art!

[@SilentCitadel]

which page? Can you be more specific?

[@TaraTaylorable]

you made this wow. You should do a video next time you make a book! so interesting and relaxing!

[@mariebuist3701]

I would like to do something like this, what supplies would i need?

[@SilentCitadel]

what a wonderful thing to say, bless your heart

[@SilentCitadel]

Ah! That one was fun. Silver crackle paint from Distress by Tim Holtz, and Tsukineko walnut stain spray on the remaining paper. Hope that helps!

[@Clutterbrains]

where do you find images to collage with? I love your old-era art style c:

[@TheSquishMovies]

This is so creative I love it :) Xx

[@Historicalhodgepodge]

Sounds like a real page turner *rolls eyes*. BTW I do love your collages and art work. I noticed in one post you made your own tarot cards, Do you read tarot for others?

[@Historicalhodgepodge]

what is the book about? I tried to find information on it but there isn't much...

[@Emmliii]

Omg. I loove your book! I want to buy it!

[@ASMRGRATITUDE]

your creativity inspires me

[@SilentCitadel]

@achekovgirl I'm so delighted you enjoyed it!

[@mooncakessilver7603]

Loving all your book videos ;)

[@joeshmo5399]

The fingernail Diva frenzy between 5:14 and 5:31 was cool:)

[@SilentCitadel]

@OlessiaD Hooray!!!! If you need any art supply suggestions or advce feel free to message me. I'm thrissed you're going to give it a whirl. They're so fun and there's such different and interesting stuff you can do with them. I recommend googling "altered book" for a myriad of ideas.

[@nataliehite8137]

Dec 2024 & I couldn’t sleep ~ back to old reliable I go 😌

[@SilentCitadel]

@Marvsh89 Wow that is so nice of you! Thank you! I hope I can keep giving you the shivers!

[@SilentCitadel]

You are so so welcome. I'm delighted I could help!

[@SilentCitadel]

no, but I do have a tumblr and a facebook :) Link to facbook is on my YT homepage

[@SilentCitadel]

Mixed is my favorite- no boundaries or limits :)

[@SilentCitadel]

@Glambertx96 Altered books are a pretty popular weird art form- I was given this book by a friend of mine who wanted to alter it herself but never found the time. The pictures and matereals came from all over. I have a giant book shelf filled with art supplies :)

[@SilentCitadel]

@virtuallytess I was wrong. I got it from the Ohio State University's Flickr album. google image search "miss murdock" and it's the first one to pop up if you'd like a copy of it :D

[@SilentCitadel]

Awesome! Now I can fly and stuff right? Aw heck. lol

[@DRCFART]

sooooo relaxed

[@SilentCitadel]

@aw0j lol! I'm trying to be a little original- keep it interesting and engaging and still be relaxing- so thank you- It sounds like my efforts are not in vain.

[@SilentCitadel]

@ShaunberryiPod Oh, thank you!

[@rebeccatrafford2417]

wow the video is amazing love it but I must say your rings are amazing too are they real? or cosmetic?

[@SilentCitadel]

I need to make another silent video again soon

[@SilentCitadel]

it was a joy to create!

[@onewaytosavetheday]

Your art is inspirational. I think I'll just go ahead and do something creative... after I enjoy some ASMR and relaxation ;)
