That’s the most beautiful fairy 🧚♀️ journal I’ve ever seen. I wish you could do a tutorial on your journals especially big ones. I struggle with big ones and the paper for them. I absolutely love your work.
I love how you used a book, digital kits and more, but you cant tell one from the other. It all looks so cohesive. Like it all came from the same kit or book. It tells a story. Its probably your best one yet!! I have watched countless journal videos, but i always enjoy yours the most.
Thank you! Yeah, it made me so happy finding digitals that had the same art style and making the journal so cohesive like that. This one was sooooo much fun to make! I really enjoy making journals with a story.
This truly is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. I feel like I have watched 1 million videos on journals and journals being made and I have truly never seen one as beautiful as this you did an amazing job! It is truly a work of art Thank you so very much for sharing. I felt like I went on an adventure.
Wow, what an amazing piece of art. So beautiful and immersive. The whole time, I was imagining being gifted this as a young girl, I was always a voracious reader and fantasy was my favourite thing, I would have been beside myself, I could imagine adding all my own thoughts and secrets, my own adventures and art, and it's so big, you could add to it for years and treasure it all your life. Someone is going to be very lucky to have this. ✌❤
You are such a gifted artist!!! I have an infinity for elven, fairies, dragons, and every little detail of that life. You’ve brought all these pages of your journal to life so beautifully, as you always do, but I think that this one is my ultimate favourite you’ve made. I’ve been in awe all throughout this video, gasping at the pages, and how you’ve dyed and added more and more beauty as you went along. I love the story aspect. It’s like going on a journey. Well done Sweet Soul!!! ❤👩🏼🦳🌞🐺🌿🧙🏼♀️🐴🧝🏼♀️🦌🧝🏻🪶🧚🏽♀️🐇🌱🪡🍄🦉❤
Aww, thank you! 🥰 If I could, I would live in this world I have created. I love allll the things fantasy and the feeling of a magical adventure being had. This journal is my dream life! 😅
This journal is absolutely breathtaking and the kind of journal i aspire to make for myself. Im curious to know what the green paper is (the ones where you've inked the edges brown), its really quite beautiful. ❤
I have made a few journals and love the concept, but I have to say this was a beautiful journal, you have worked everything in it so well, and it must have taken a lot of time but it was worth it. Thank you for sharing.
❤❤❤. Wow, your journals are beautiful, even my husband is watching this. The back pack is amazing 🤩. Love your incredible journals. Blessings from Colleen 😊
Oh yes. What a beautiful journal you've made. Great kits, but a very harmonic combination of them. I love the secret hotspots inside. ❣🌿🧚♀️ hugs from germany - coquito
Wow I just stumbled across your video and thought I’d have a look. You are very talented in the way you have put everything together without anything clashing. The kits you used fit perfectly together. Tfs.
This is Gorgeous! It is obvious that a Lot of time, thought and work went into this. Since it has gifts to you from your sister in it and you worked So hard on it, I think you should keep it. It truly is lovely.
Thank you! I'm honestly so tempted to keep it. I don't think I'd mind one bit if it doesn't sell. But I also need to make money to pay for my kids' schooling 🫤
This is a fantastic piece of art. I absolutely love your work. What an inspiration. I love anything about fairies, goblins and dark woods. Thanks for sharing this. From start to finish this is awesome. Val.🐨 💟
one of the most beautiful fairy journals I have seen - just WOW! one question please - your thin olive green pages, can you tell how you made them please???
Thank you! Those are from a roll of masking paper I bought on amazon. Just look up green masking paper. I tore a piece off, crumpled it up and flattened it back out, dyed it with coffee and cooked it to give it a crunch sound, then inked the torn edges with Tim Holtz ink (a combination of vintage photo and ground espresso) to make them grungier.
@@passionsofpaper thank you sooo much - I got my masking papaer and have done all you suggested - looks great, now I have another question. How do you get that paper into the signature in that shape - sorry if it is a silly question. my gramma brain just cant phathom/work it out at 31:56 minutes into your video - please and thank you
@barbaraholzmann946 I just folded the paper very crookedly. So, one side at the beginning of that signature is sticking up, and the other side is hanging down.
Another fabulous journal. KUDOS Great imagination and use of your story telling abilities. Love loved the backpack 🎉🎉 . Your covers never disappoint and how about those tassels. How long did it take you to put this journal together?
About a month. Which is 4 times as long as it takes me to make a very chunky 9x7 600 page journal. The giant journals are super hard to make but give so much freedom for creativity.
@cheridadrake280 this one has sold, but I do have another big fantasy forest journal similar to this one that is available as a custom order. This is the video for it: th-cam.com/video/xsg-k7HYAyA/w-d-xo.html
I must admit to wondering this, mailnly because I have artist friends who get angry and upset about their work being stolen off the internet. However, a quick Google of copyright law was enough to settle that thought down. The OP is perfectly entitled to reuse pictures she has paid for in this way. Plus my artist friends are never acknowledged and can see the thieves make a lot of money off their work; this is patently not the case here. The OP has created a new work of art, a real labour of love, and she freely points out the original work and its artist. I have never previously heard of the artist but now I am following both her and the OP - win/win, surely, for two immensley talented artists. I hope it sells, OP, just wish I could afford it 😍
@@passionsofpaper cool! I have wondered about it with little Golden books and then other books I've used in my journals as well. Thanks for helping me understand! 🙏
@katieroseland656 I have thought about it, but I don't have the slightest clue how to go about doing all that. Maybe when my life slows down a bit I'll look more into it.
Hello, This is absolutely gorgeous and please don’t take offence - just trying to help, noticed that adventures spelt wrong on the cover. Happens to me all the time too ❤ sent with love and good intentions only 🙏🏻🌸
@microdot153 not sure of the gsm, but the full size pages are considered 60 lb copy paper. They are very thick, smooth, and display vibrant color. They also feel amazing to write on!
I used RIT dye, a mix of dark brown and apple green. RIT dye does something special to paper that I've never seen as a result of other dyes. It makes the paper so soft and just looks so beautiful.
I get that. That's why I have all different kinds of journals in my shop. This journal is definitely going to be one of a kind. It took me 4 times as long to make this compared to how long it would take me to make a $600 journal, not to mention all the extra costs in supplies to make something so huge.
take $1600 divide that by 400 pages it works out to $4 per page - pretty inexpensive, I'd say considering the amount of time, effort, creativity, and supplies it took - I get what you are saying though. I would absolutely LOVE to own this journal...
@@barbaraholzmann946 I would say it's NOT inexpensive, considering someone like myself who is disabled and I live on disability. I have health issues that prevent me from making my own journal. Spinal stenosis, RA Nd 3 herniated discs in my back. I am forbidden medically to drive so I can't go out and buy the things I need. I live in an apartment that's under 550sq ft with no stove or oven. But you're right It's relatively inexpensive.
@@passionsofpaperthis journal is probably worth more than what you’re charging for it. Your time is probably worth that. Crafting is very undervalued. I cannot believe the incredible beauty, time and love that you’ve infused into this work of art. Even just looking at it blows my mind! Thank you ❤️🇨🇦
I LOVE your journal…but I have to say sometimes more is too much. I find this with other junk journal makers, after a while I have to move on without finishing the video. Sometimes less is more. Just my opinion.
That’s the most beautiful fairy 🧚♀️ journal I’ve ever seen. I wish you could do a tutorial on your journals especially big ones. I struggle with big ones and the paper for them. I absolutely love your work.
@bluebantamhomestead thank you! Some day, when I am a little less busy, I will definitely make a tutorial on how I make my journals.
What a wonderful Journal, a credit to you, this is absolutely stunning ❤❤👌
@traceyreilly8153 thank you!
It always amazes me how creative some of the people people on here are, your journal is gorgeous!

Greetings from germany
That is so amazing! Can't imagine how long that took to make.
3-4 times as long as it takes me to make a chunky 9x6 journal. It took forever 😅
OMG, isn't that the most magical journal on TH-cam? ♥♥♥
This journal is absolutely gorgeous! I don't like when it's too many digitals in a journal, but you manage to make it really, really nice. I love it!❤
Thank you! 💜

Hello,

Thank you! Someone had pointed it out to me, and it has been fixed. 💜
Beautiful, enchanting journal!! I just want to mention. That possibly?? The word "adventure " may be misspelled in the cover....
Oops, it appears you have fixed it based on some video shots and the pictures in your etsy listing. Not being picky, just trying to help!
@MKinNC-qb1ep yes I appreciate it! Someone has already pointed it out and I was able to fix it. I appreciate people letting me know. 💜

@microdot153 Actually, I just looked it up. It's 162 gsm.
@@passionsofpaper awesome . thank you for this message and the next one about 162 gsm
coud you tell me how you made that green paper color? I love this video. thank You
@@dawnswanson4203 I used apple green RIT dye mixed with brown.

@@passionsofpaper thanks for sharing you are right about the rit dye doing something to the paper because the paper looks like fabric
How do you dye your paper green?
@@lorikendrick5076 I use rit liquid dye for all paper and fabric dyeing.
