Spectacular layout. It should not be a journal page but a canvas to hang on the wall. Giraffes have a special place in my heart. You are an amazing artist and enjoy watching what you create. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. 🤗
This is a stunning page! I can’t believe how much I’ve learned from you through the years. When you had everything down, and the page looking beautiful, and then you poured the white liquid on top, I thought, “She’s using matte medium to make the page non-porous so she can use her big brush markers to shade.” I laughed out loud when that’s what you did! THANK YOU for the years of art knowledge you’ve imparted to those of us wanting to understand the process and learn the elements so badly. You are a sparkling gem in the creative world.
😂 It’s always the same techniques that I use … but isn’t it amazing how different the results are? I just love art journaling! Thank you for your kind comment and the support. I appreciate it more than you know! It motivates me and inspires me to keep sharing 🤗
The patterned papers you use are exquisite but your creativity takes your projects to an extraordinary level. Your videos always inspire me. I’ve learned so much from you over the years. Thank you for sharing your techniques and talent with us.
I love, love, love giraffes. And this page is incredible. I am in the process of going through all your videos and watching them for the 3rd or 4th time. I've always admired your work but lately you are blowing me away with how great your pages and cards are coming out. So amazing!! Bravo!!!
WOW!! WOW!! WOW!! I think this my favorite of all your journal pages now! Spectacular paper, fascinating techniques, and your unique way of bringing everything together and then adding special touches to the page make this an exceptional project!
O Vicki. This is such a lovely page. It is early morning here and I love waking up to your art journal pages. I just love the distress glaze technique you use. You are one of a very few that use this medium. I love it. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge. I thought of a mother's love when I saw the focal point. Your sentiment is great for in the jungle they survive together. On earth a child and parent survive. together. Everything you do is cohesive.
I had in mind solidarity when making a page, helping others in need. With everything that happens in the world 🌎. But there are so many ways to use this lovely parent and child image as you mentioned.
Aaw~ what a cute journal spread. The mommy-baby giraffes make me wanna get the collection. Thank you so much for the beautiful double pages, Vicky. Hope your throat will get better. Take care.
Yes, Diana we are on the same page!!! I had solidarity and protect the innocent in mind when I was making this page, rather than a parent-child image. But the beauty with art is that everyone can find a different meaning!
What a sweet mommy and baby page. I love the background and definitely will be trying it soon plus all the paper colors are very soothing to me. It's beautiful. Thank you.
I try hard to be a destruction… although this page was based on solidarity and helping those in need …. there is a meaning in my heart to everything I do I just don’t always mention it … ☮️
I love Stamperia papers. I just created a African Safari journal for my grandkids with the 8 by 8paper pad. Can't wait to order more papers with different subjects.
@Vicky Papaioannou • I love the way you explain your thought process. The first strokes did look like a hot mess but once you added the borders it changed. I like how you do certain things by trial and error to get the look you want, like the giraffes and circles while others are tried and true methods of shading, outling, then highlighting. You have a very broad range of vision from your steam punk version of tech to this. Thanks for sharing with us.
Extremely effective layout. Stunning colours used. Thank you for showing each page of the new paper pads, I adore the animal print pages. Hope your voice gets better. x
I love all your layouts Vicky, but I think this one has to be my absolute favourite. I had the privilege of being able to feed giraffes whilst on holiday years ago and I have a real soft spot for them. Might have to get one of the paper pads just to stroke! 😊
Gorgeous layout! Amazing Stamperia collection! Giraffes are my favorite “wild” animal so today’s video is extra special! Thanks so much for continuing Mixed Media Tuesdays as they are a highlight of the week! Have a wonderful day! 🙂
Tuesday is my favorite day! I am always looking forward to this day because I love texture and mixed media. You have inspired me with your process for many years!!! thank you…
Oh…I love this page! I just adore giraffes. They are somehow majestic to me…I mean a lion is the ultimate majestic creature, but the giraffe is so unique. There is an element of grace to the way it moves. Sigh, I digress! TFS and God bless, Vicky!
Absolutely love your mixed media Tuesdays, this page is so beautiful. I am a beginner, I love your videos they are so easy to follow and give such inspiration. Its good to know what products do what and how to avoid the pitfalls. Thanks
I have several Stamperia paper packs/kits that I have yet to use. When going through and sorting what I have into like-kind piles, I found myself wondering how I would ever use paper that is so thick and stiff. I had junk journals in mind. But thanks to your videos, I now moved my thoughts from junk journals (for journaling) to using Stamperia paper in art journals instead. Thank you for the inspiration. I will be watching more of your videos.
The focal point you used speaks to me of a mother’s love…so very beautiful in these difficult days. Amazing creativity, as always, Vicky! TFS, Sharon🤗🇺🇦
Love this page!!! I always feel a little anxious when you cut your focal points in two. I've seen you do it many times with excellent results, so I relax once the pieces are glued down. 😌🦒😊
I am just finishing a Savana Album and was indexing how to accent my cover. I love your journal page and it has encouraged me to copy some of your idea and use the circles behind those giraffes to highlight my cover. Thank you for sharing your Art with us!
Love, love, love that paper collection. So happy you chose the giraffes since I love them too. Anyway, it is an amazing mixed media page and watching you create it was such a treat!!!! Thank you
I love this layout so much. I love watching your process of deciding what to do with the pieces you choose and how sometimes you change your mind while you are working on it. Thank you again for sharing your pages with us.
What an amazing page, Vicky! Just love watching your creative process! It’s so helpful to see how your plans change as you start to create. Thanks for another inspiring Mixed Media Tuesday! 🦒💛🌻
Magnificent! I always enjoy your double layouts. I have that Stamperia collection as well and was working on the Savana moulds as I watched your video. Thanks for the brilliant inspiration!
Oooo, I LOVE that paper!!! The pages turned out so beautiful. Love these simple techniques to create such a lovely look. The art journal pages are my all time favorite works, they are what got me inspired to try art journaling myself.
I just love how you are able to use colours to bring your focal image to life. The turquoise contrast is gorgeous with all of the beautiful warm browns and yellows. Thanks for sharing your changes as well as I believe it helps us learn. 🤗🇨🇦🤗
Because of you Vicky, i started over 1 year ago to art journal.😃 I looooove all your (mix media) videos. I learend so much, got so much inspiration....a lot of your go to thechnics became also mine.👍 Todays savana layout was a one that i was looking out for.

I wish there was a "LOVE" button we could press instead of just a "LIKE". I LOVE this page!!!
