This is a neat idea! It is amazing how 10 minutes of "art play" can fuel creativity! I do love watching your longer videos--I learn so much from watching and listening to your thought process as you create an art journal page. That is what encouraged me to join your Mission Inspiration group, and I am thoroughly enjoying having a guided project as a way to put into practice what I've learned. Thank you, Mike, for all the time and effort you put into these videos. They are greatly appreciated!!!
Great idea Mike. I always seam to fumble when starting a new page. I sit there & think about what to do for eons, instead of just doing something. Thanks for u videos. They r always very inspirational.
You must be psychic Mike! I bought a brand new moleskin notebook a couple of weeks ago on Prime, so it came the next day. I was so excited! I love it so much, I keep picking it up and stroking it, flicking through all its gorgeous, terrifying pages, then put it down again!! But I'm terrified of it!!! You have now kickstarted me into doing something constructive with it and to stop dribbling over it! Thank you. X
As a newbie this helps me give myself permission to just try. Nike should be the goddess of new crafters, 'just do it'...also the closest I could get to being an athlete unless the olympic committee makes hoarding art and craft supplies a sport. Love your videos Mike, x
Great tip Mike I just picked up one of those journals and now I know just what I want to do with it, maybe you can do another video to let me know where to go once I broke the blank page... lol thanks......
Good evening Mike...i needed that video...thanks for making it....i will possible need a day what you do in 10 minutes....and you are so right...my new journal is opend and closed several times... and took a sheet instead...until now....your the best...xo Francien🌹
I do this when I have excess paint to use up off of the sponges on other projects. My weakness is going back and building on that. I would love to see this series come back from time to time adding the next layer to complete the background.
Very useful ....I need to tape the rule of three on the wall in front of my desk. I'm going to assume the same goes for putting tissue paper or other background elements down
Very informative and I guess you could use paint instead if you haven't got all those archival inks, although I realise it doesn't quite give the same effect. Tfs xo
Hi mike wanted ubto know for some reason out ofnall the videos and people you and ypur videos actually hekp me. Im so stuck right now having a hard time andi cant bring myself to do anything i juat sort an dre arrange my stuff over n over. Im gonna try these and try and make my own spray inks..thanks for being you!
Actually you made ten spreads, not pages, so you are twice as far ahead! Smile! Two opposing pages makes a spread. And the dip in between the two pages is called the ditch. The Rule of ODDS -- 3, 5, 9 and so on. When layering images, white (blank)space and black lines are also considered elements on a page.

Thanks Michelle and welcome to my channel! XO
Wow, thanks for the brilliant idea. Blank pages are intimidating so this will help me a heck of a lot.
Yes White Pages Are Very Intimidating Great Video, Thanks For Sharing!~
Really like this concept, Mike! 😎
Thanks Mike. I like to keep another journal open beside me and use up paints and inks to break a page when working. X
Very special your video! Great idea. Thanks.
Thanks Mike, I hope you do more of the 10 minute how "to" videos.
Great video, i feel.more inspired now to grab my journal so Thanks x
Hi Mike - this is really effective - I've just bought a 4 palette set of Tim Holtz Archival Ink, so will be giving this a go. Thanks for sharing.
Muchas gracias por compartir, me encantan tus trabajos y aprendo mucho con tus videos!

Great tip
Awesomely useful ! 😀 tfs !
Thanks for the tips, I have a lot of blank pages! LOL! Enjoyed!
I apparently missed this one, but I would like to try it out!! Thanks Mike :-)
Love the mix of stencils. I alway deliberate too long over my stencil choice, I need to learn to be more free.
Awesome and very helpful!
Hugs Marsha
must invest in some ink pads and stencils,look forward to seeing what you do with each page, tfs big hugs Caroline xxx

I think I may film a video in response to this called "following an art journal tutorial" I hope you won't Mind ❤️
Very informative and I guess you could use paint instead if you haven't got all those archival inks, although I realise it doesn't quite give the same effect. Tfs xo
Wondering how to go from there with this pages......
Hi mike wanted ubto know for some reason out ofnall the videos and people you and ypur videos actually hekp me.

Nice, thanks for sharing it is scary to look at a blank page. Perhaps you could do second and third layers in your 10 minute series. : )
Actually you made ten spreads, not pages, so you are twice as far ahead! Smile! Two opposing pages makes a spread. And the dip in between the two pages is called the ditch. The Rule of ODDS -- 3, 5, 9 and so on. When layering images, white (blank)space and black lines are also considered elements on a page.
