[@vickitoo1]

I caught myself smiling while watching the video. Your video's always make me happy.

[@crystallp6274]

Vicky, you have really inspired me over the past few months. I never get tired of watching and re-watching your art journal page videos! I have used your videos as reference to purchase my crafting supplies! Thanks again for the inspiration!!

[@phorn8219]

Lots of Fun Stuff ! With Lots of techniques and ideas here. Always a treat to come and watch you work. Thanks ever so much for the 'invite.'

[@colormary1]

I love that you can put a beautiful page together with a few supplies and I like seeing you draw simple shapes and color, shade and highlight them.

[@lisaorourke5060]

I look everyday for a new post from you. I LOVE everything you put together. Thank you for sharing your special gift!

[@BeardedBarley1]

Do you ever turn your art journaling pages into full-blown pieces of canvas art and sell them? Perhaps prints? If not, you really should. That really is true about music. Your work really is amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your whole process with us. Also because you are Greek, you should also teach us a word or a phrase in Greek per video. That would be fun!

[@lovemygazebo]

Another beautiful layout Vicky! I look forward to your emails every week and I'm never disappointed. I love this style of art journal..every page means something xxx Thank you for sharing with us :)

[@nbenefiel]

For years I've knit, sewn, quilted,made porcelain dolls, and gardened. Nothing has ruined my nails the way that art journaling and mixed media has, but I love it.

[@vickyp]

It is addictive And it gives me so much joy!

[@bonniestaten1146]

I looked and looked for someone who does the type of video you do in mixed media....then I found you and I've been hooked ever since! You are so wonderful and I don't want to miss a one. Thank you so much for sharing your time and talent...It's so appreciated!

[@angelaf5040]

I just realized that this LO was finished on my birthday!! 😁 It's still in my top favorites that you've made through all these years.

[@icatstaci77]

You've got me ready to create girl!! But it's 4:30 in the morning and I need my coffee first! Lol thanks for another amazing tutorial!! Staci

[@conniehendricks5899]

Vicky...I could listen to you talk all day long.....and I have watched your videos all day........well several videos in a row....I love your work...very beautiful! I am not an artist, but I am going to try this. Thank you for sharing!

[@lbcrafter8621]

You did it again, Vicky! You blow me away every time! Thank you for sharing with us! Love watching you create your wonderful layouts!

[@mototigg]

I love all your art journal pages, but this one is by far my favorite! Can definitely tell you're a musician too, you put the piano keys in the right places!!! Lol :-)

[@fastquilter600]

I'm a music teacher and this is the first Art Journal page I will use for inspitation. Love the layers. in Art Journaling......... Thanks for sharing

[@happymv5350]

Vicky, I have been a huge fan of your wonderful videos for some time. This one in particular put a huge smile on my face! I really like your techniques, composition and color combinations. Thank you for sharing your projects and allowing us to be a part of your art journey.

[@deborahsanders8564]

Your layouts are always remarkable. I also truly appreciate that you explain what you are doing, the products you are using, and why. I learn so much from you! Thank you so much.

[@virginiaburns5278]

Another fabulous Art Journal page!! Thank you so much for sharing your ideas! Your sense of humour always makes me laugh along with you ... it's so great to listen to someone who doesn't take themselves overly-seriously, as many KZbin presenters seem to!! Love your videos!

[@crushercat1]

Watched this with my morning coffee...what a treat! What a gorgeous page, Vicky. Thanks for posting.

[@geminicris4586]

You're really funny! I laughed so much when you said "...while I'm fighting with my mess ..."!! Well, it's amazing that you can turn a "mess" into a masterpiece! ;) Thank you Vicky, as always you inspire me ...

[@mawmawvee]

I love music. This is a lovely piece.

[@nusaibanaina7259]

mawmawvee please tell me the name of the music

[@auntbon6319]

I think this may be my favorite of all the art journal pages I've watched you do, so far. Possibly because music is dear to my heart, too. But I loved the techniques you used to do the piano keys. Very clever and original. Thank you for sharing all your ideas and methods with us.

[@GTNana2]

Oh my! How fabulous is that! I'll have to steal some of those ideas because my grandson is turning 7 this month and he loves music and ah...'plays... guitars, ukuleles, violins...anything he can get his hands on. And he's very theatrical! Even if it's just a BD card, I'm going to do something with your very innovative, creative, and inspiring idea!! Just love watching you create and so grateful that you keep sharing all this goodness with us. I've learned so much from you. TFS your amazing talent! P.S. I'm glad I'm not the only one that doesn't like to 'get up' to 'clean-up' while working on a project!!

[@ArtLoverScotland]

Good grief, I just LOVE your artistry.......... thank you for showing us.

[@JacobsOompa]

OHHHHHHH Vicky....You have REALLY Out done yourself.......no surprise tho....WOW....love love love this layout....I am an extreme music lover and do dabble with The Piano mostly and Autoharp a 36 string instrument...wonderful...and sing all the old songs....to the residents where Mommy lives at her assisted living. A very rewarding show every 2 wks I do with the residents...nothing formal just sit amongst them around me....lots of love and participation and giving back TIME and LOVE to them....This is such a warm project....I should love to make this for a framed piece for Mommy's room. Love this. Very creative and I most appreciate it. I hope you don't mind my over zealousness....I am fairly new to this, but not to crafting tho...well over 45 yrs crafting. It feeds the mind and calms the soul..... God Bless....and THANKYOU!! Ken from Orlando, Fl.

[@sherrydmyterko-tramp8654]

I really super love this. My hubby does praise and worship at church. We love music. I love how you added the piano around it.

[@mcharley01]

Omg.....thank you for sharing. Because of you sharing your art journals, I want to start doing a prayer journal. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@life_love1638]

I am a music lover, so i will say your work is extraordinarily incredible.

[@gamegirlazd3608]

Vicky, I don't really know what to say to you that I haven't already told you. I don't want to waste your time but you just plain deserve the praise. I remember wishing for parents like you to come and help with projects with students. You would be one that no one in our school would want to share because your work is so phenomenally awesome. I would love to see your craft room. I would love to see your art journal books. I would love to watch you work. You are a gift to me. I look at my crafting and I think, what would Vicky add that I haven't even noticed? I would love to start an art journal but I think I am afraid that I am going to buy lots of supplies, make a mess and throw all of it away. You would not do that. You would turn it into something fit for a famous art gallery. I LOVE YOUR WORK!!! I guess you can tell. :-)

[@vickyp]

How can reading an appreciation comment be a waste of time? Comments like yours is what motivates me to share my work and trust me it's not easy to go public with something you create! But when sweet feedback like yours make my day then I think my work is done here!!! Go ahead and play, use whatever you have, just acrylics or watercolors will do and magazine print outs. The key is to start creating. it's so much fun!

[@justinetafolla8060]

thank you so much for sharing your beautiful work of art! I do have to say that I giggled when you had your "accident"with the paint, but only because that's the kind of thing that happens to me in my craft room! 😁I still have a bright pink sweatshirt that has a huge black splat on it from a container of gesso flying out of my hands and exploding on it, long story, lol. 😂 Thank you so much for keeping that in the video and thank you so much for sharing your talent💞

[@ASoulsHeartbeat]

It's always such fun to watch your pages come together. You have such vision with what you're creating. I think you're right this is a winning layout too, but then I think each one of yours is. I really appreciate how you explain what you are doing and why. Pretty soon I'll be brave enough to try this too! Big Hugs

[@vickyp]

Thank you so much Patti! Keep your eyes on the postman.... Hugs!

[@ACraftProject]

Go for it Patti! X

[@kaiyakershaw1028]

I love your layout and I've learned so much from watching your videos! In this video, I really appreciate how you let us see your mess and how you recovered and cleaned up. It encourages me not to get too upset with my own messiness!

[@artisticwriter]

LOVE this one! :) You know, I NEVER wanted to do journaling because I didn't want to just "write" in my art journal. But I never knew what else to do! Thanks to your videos, you have inspired me to start my own art journal! Thanks so much!

[@DevinTaylorCreations]

WOW Vicky!! This is my ABSOLUTE FAVE!! My son LOVED music and this LO truly made me realize I want to start an art journal. I'm excited I finally purchased all the Faber Castell Big Brush Markers. My other faves are Home, Happy New Year and Def Take Life One Cup at a Time(& many more...LOL).....Your creativity is Crazy Cool and I've learned so much, I want to lay some down and see what I can do...Lol--Taylor:)

[@brodammer]

I love this and all your layouts. Your KZbin page is the first I go to each day to see if there is something new. Thank you so much for being so inspiring!

[@dianamagalhaesdesign]

Fantastic! I just love the way you are so spontaneous while creating. Sometimes I get so worried about the mess that it kills my creativity. I've been so inspired by your work! Thanks for sharing!

[@cherirolett9687]

Totally awesome! Every time I think you've out done yourself I see another one that is even better. I have so many favorites! You're very good at explaining all the steps which is so helpful. Thank you for sharing!

[@pfengwa44]

Love Love Love! You have a fantastic ability to imagine what you want to do and from that vision create it. I generally stare a long time at my supplies and still have no idea what to do. But thanks to your encouragement and inspiration, I created my first art journal page! Thank so much.

[@leecee3741]

I opened my email and there it was.....Vicki Papaioannou has made a new journal layout, I just can't wait to see them. I think this one is my favorite, I love the double page idea. Thank you Vicki, what a talented lady you are. Efkharisto.

[@spiritcreations1353]

Love your work! I especially like watching you cut your own elements. I don't have a cutting machine so I free hand everything. I learn so much watching you do it.

[@Anniehow1996]

My gosh Vicky, your layouts are so inspiring.When I get an email that there is a new post on your blog I can't wait to watch it. Thank you!

[@sherribenson1]

I love the layout and colors. Beautiful and it is one of my favorites too. I love when you show the mishaps that turn in to great additions.

[@smuxlow1954]

I did the same with my distress paints. I had green all over my art table! After that, I make sure to checked the tops before I tipped them over. I think Ranger needs to go back to the drawing board on those paint bottles! I adore all your videos and can’t wait to watch them. I’ve learned so much. Thanks for sharing your creativity!

[@KimLechelle]

I have been enjoying all of your art journals. I am making my way through all of them. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@TheItalianCreamSoda]

Wow, another beautiful page! The strings on the guitar and the piano background are my favorite pieces!

[@meryleardagh5159]

I love watching your videos. I have roamed the web looking for inspiration many times and by far I find yours to be the most enjoyable and informative to watch. I love your work. You are very talented and an excellent teacher. Thanks for helping me keep the creative juices flowing. This is one of my faves too,

[@helenasiapatori2786]

You have a unique talent!!! Congrats!! You make amazing pages!! I can't stop watching your videos!!!❤

[@teresakannenberg1202]

This is absolutely fabulous Vicky! Your guitar looks so good! Your free hand drawing is amazing! I could just listen & watch u all day! U are so cute to listen too!

[@amymitchell8877]

You're my favorite art journaler! I am always happy to see a new video from you.

[@jo-annepikebrintrup1500]

Vicky, I know this is really late but I have watched this video so many times because I LOVE it!!!! I am planning to do these 2 pages in my art journal and also make some birthday cards for my fellow band members! Using your techniques!!! Love every page you create and I love watching you create them! I have completed about 4 double page layouts! Everyone loves them!! Thank you so much! (I hope you get this since it's so old) Jo-Anne

[@Sqirl2]

I vote this one to the top of my list of favorites ... move over teacups! :) Thanks for sharing Vicky ... Jer

[@ritaharker4466]

Only just seen this page but I’m so glad I found it. Fabulous work.

[@mariaantoniou7090]

TΙ ΙΔΕΑ αυτο με τη κιθάρα!!!Μπράβο βρε Βίκυ!!!!ΥΠΕΡΟΧΟ!!!!

[@henrycruiser]

Not only beautiful but absolutely fascinating and mesmerizing to watch!

[@jacquelinec2904]

So beautiful! I love your processes, your creativeness, and even your accent. lol Beautiful art music journal piece!

[@helengibson8196]

It's a pleasure to watch your videos Vicky. Thank you for sharing your imagination with us :)

[@catherineglover3237]

Thanks for sharing another art journal layout! You are a real inspiration Vicki. I always look forward to the next video.

[@WilmaVoermans]

Get out of here Vicky, this is the best page you made ever !!! LOVE it! x

[@annetteking9791]

I loved how you cleaned up the mess and how with the white gesso we can clean the piano pages. I will definitely try this in my Art Journal. I love music and I play the piano. Thanks for your continuous inspiration...From Puerto Rico

[@beckyjomentzer9060]

One of my favorites! Love watching you create! Thanks so much for the videos you make - so inspiring! Hugs!!

[@ellaconner9452]

Vicky, I love watching you create in your art journal! Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us!

[@mooseballet]

What a fabulous journal page! I am always so inspired by your creations! Thanks so much for sharing your talents!

[@comedygumballmachine4748]

Fantastic Techniques! I'm new to Art Journaling & had no idea you could implement so many different methods. I'm learning so much from you! You should write a book on all of this! (if you haven't already). As an Artist, Musician, & operator of Audio-visual equipment, I love the colors you chose, the sentiment of the quote, & how professionally/thoroughly you've produced your videos. All I can say is, "more please!" :D

[@Hopinforpeaceonearth]

So adorable. As always, you do the most beautiful job on your journal pages. I wish my mind worked like this too. It just seems so effortless for you. As far as not cleaning your brushes or stencils, I am the same way. I never want to stop in the middle of my art either. So, I bought myself a small plastic bin and always have it near me with soapy water. That way I can just throw everything in it. Sometimes it sits for days before I finally get around to cleaning it out. BUT, when I do clean it out, it's quite simple. I just take it into the kitchen. The modeling paste, paints and glues wipe away with very little effort. It's very convenient and I save on baby wipes this way too.

[@Cynthia-or4bi]

I just have to say I love every single page you do. My heart gets giddy when I'm watching your videos and you have inspired me soooo much. Thank you. I have now watched all 76 art journal videos (Im feeling a little sad about that) but now to the next play list. 💜😚

[@laphon223]

I really enjoy watching you create. The colors are great and your pages are lovely. Thank you for sharing.

[@lujeanmartin8429]

This is absolutely gorgeous! Music speaks to all of us. :)

[@ImperfectImpulses]

This is hands down my favorite page you've ever made! The piano keys are the perfect border! Brava, darling! -Aaron

[@tarikendall3125]

Love this. I have started an art journal myself after wstching your videos. I was a card maker and very inspired by your card designs and now really enjoying myself expressing myself with an art journal. Thank you so much. :)

[@debiward8118]

Oh My Goodness Im obsessed with alllllll your videos...

[@creativebreathings]

I love your interactive guitar. I don't normally copy, but I might adapt this for a Christmas card for musical family members.

[@suerobinson]

You are so right, journaling is very addictive, especially watching your vids makes me want to do more. Cheers

[@SammiJarrad]

I really love this layout. I loved the coffee one also, but I think this is my favorite so far. Thank you so much for sharing your art!

[@dtumbrink]

I do love the tea cups, but THIS is my number 1 choice so far! I absolutely love your work Vicky!! I have just purchased my first art journal but haven’t started yet. I’m binge watching you first to build up the courage to lay down some ink and paper!

[@vickyp]

Its just paper don’t overthink it, go for it and have fun. If you don’t like it... you just turn the page! The more you make the more familiar you will get with techniques and your mediums. By the time you make your 5th you won’t believe the difference when you turn the page on your first project! Have fun!!!

[@deborahcarr4058]

I think this is my favorite above the teacups. My hubby plays guitar so this page is on my list to do my version of it. Love your work.

[@1CocoCookies]

You keep amazing me with your ability to create such interesting pages. I like the way you start off with patterned paper but alter it with color to tie into your design. That is truly a great talent and you did it so effortlessly with the guitar! Bravo!

[@22kmperry]

Another awesome page, Vicky.....and I think it is a TIE with the teacups!!! Love it! TFS!

[@tammyoneill6128]

Those strings!!!! Make the page pop. 👍🏼🎨

[@Indigo6g]

Love watching you work on your journal. Great inspiration. Thanks

[@scrappyhorses]

I always enjoy your videos; they are so inspiring. Thanks for all the work you do to share your ideas with us!

[@lori_bain]

Fantastic page! I love it, especially the design of the piano keys underneath and the guitar strings!

[@ireneirene62]

You are inspiring me so much with your journal pages! Thank you for leaving the oops with the distress ink in, it makes me feel so much better lol.

[@NanaPoweredBy6]

Love your videos, Vicky! I'm learning so much and I love to listen to your voice! Thank you for sharing

[@ateliescrapearte1455]

I love when you explain your work and the motivation of using an specific material. Thank you for sharing your precious art work with us. Hugs from Brazil.

[@cccarignan3864]

You are so good at teaching and sharing what you do ... I really learn so much from you and enjoy your style and sweet voice. Thank you so much for this great lesson..

[@moniquebreeman7113]

It is a beautiful lay out and I love the bright colors as also the music theme. Thank you for sharing.

[@nicolette2803]

Gorgeous layout! I love watching you create your pages. You are truly inspiring!

[@RHG412]

So inspiring. Makes me want to bust out the paint and my credit card! I need more Tim Holtz stuff! I loved the addition on the music notes and treble clef!

[@sadiejosiemom]

I can't pick a favorite - but I do love this!!

[@TanyaNaserHodgePodgeCrochet]

I love that you share the boo-boos too! Lovely page, as always 😍

[@maryjanew20]

I love watching the process, I learn so much. Thanks for sharing!

[@GazBower]

Excellent tutorial....This "Music" layout has inspired me to try mixed medium techniques. Thank you for sharing. :)

[@leticiasanchez403]

AH, CÓMO ME GUSTO ESTE LAYOUT!!!! MUCHAS GRACIAS POR MOSTRARLO!!! SALUDOS MEXICANOS......

[@hollytree2927]

One of my fav too. I like the stencil harlequin better than the dots stencil because the dots make me think of technology and the harlequin makes me think of old fashioned. Also the black and white piano border is awesome! Really makes your whole page pop. But yehhh, i love the stacked tea cups too. I couldnt pick a very fav. :)

[@plumsystar]

So happy, your art journal is so inspiring. I love your walk through of your process, it reminds me of enjoying every bit of the process.

[@DotJFreel]

I just love how you brought that simple drawing of a guitar to life! Another beautiful page in your art journal.

[@dianehowdeshell4806]

I absolutely love your videos. Your work inspires me. Thank you for sharing your ideas.

[@daniellekelly3851]

I just love watching you create. Your art journal pages are my favorite things to watch! I'm hoping we get to see a flip through of your beautiful art journal!

[@PatriciaA1953]

I too loved the cups and also the paper but this one is very special as I love music so I guess I am bias to this piece. You always amaze me with your eye for about any topic, you never miss....So happy I have found your video's..such inspiration, talent, and over all brillant art !!!!

[@sm1sprettygirl]

Your videos are the reason I've started mu own Scrapbook.. And I'd like to thank you for inspiring me :)
