This has to be one of the best videos I have ever seen on TH-cam for crafters. The techniques were clear and your camera shots were professional. I am in your debt for sharing your talents with us for free. God will bless you for being so generous. You really seem to care about and enjoy what you are demonstrating. Thank you again for sharing this video for all of us to enjoy.
Hi Janice and thank you for commenting! I've used the large ones to stamp the leaves. I link the small ones because this is where I got the little acorn! Thanks again for visiting!!!
Hi Tammy and thank you for commenting. I will try to explain why I make a thing and then cover it with something else. Nothing in my art journal is fully planned from the beginning. The general idea is in my head but as I go along I change things to make them work better, until I am pleased. I do not cut it out when I video edit since I think that has it's value... to see the whole process. To your StazOn question... sorry, never used it so I can't tell. I guess you should try!
Hi Becky and thanks for commenting. I don't use anything more that you saw me using on the video. Truth is they don't stick... never had that problem... no idea how to help you here. Do you think it has to do with humidity of the place you live? Out of ideas here.... sorry!
This is so beautiful. Non crafters really don't know how much time it takes to do a lot of crafting projects like this. Look forward to watching more of your videos. Thank you for sharing your ideas which also gives us crafters new ideas that we wouldn't have thought to do.
You are 100% the reason I’m getting into this craft, your pages are adorable and I *love* your positive outlook!! I am just now collecting WAY TOO MANY supplies 🤣 I can’t wait until I get to set up my art space and get to work! Thank you so much for all your inspiring videos, you truly have a gift!!!! ❤️
Thank you Marilyn for commenting! Yes, the leaves do change color in Greece. Greece has all four seasons, it's not an exotic place...although it's hot in the summer with lots of beaches and tons of islands to visit ;) But we do get autumn and winter with cold and snow. All four seasons!!! Hugs and thanks for your lovely comment!!!!
So beautiful and NOT too long. All the elements were lovely. The "vines" really were the final touch that just added a little whimsy and made me smile. I love seeing your art journal pages. I vote for MORE of them. Thank you
I love to watch you do your journal pages! Every time I think its my favorite one until the next one, you do such beautiful work! Thanks for inspiring me.
I'm speechless! I've never watched your art journal pages before but WOW!!!! I don't think even Tim Holtz knows how good his stuff can look! You are absolutely amazing!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you. Even though this was 8 years ago, this would have to be one of my most favourite journal page tutorials ever! Your colours and layout ideas are just amazing!
Thank you for commenting. I have a general idea of what I am about to do on the pages. I decide on the theme and the quote or the stamps I'll be using. Although most of the time I change plans while working. It's too difficult to plan everything since you don't really know how the colors and techniques are going to look... but that's the beauty of it!!!!
Oh my gosh! You did so many different techniques that I've never seen before! The first one you did that impressed me so much was adding the stamps on the leaves that weren't exact matches to them. Brilliant! Adding Glossy Accent to the twine and wrapping it around the pencil (or whatever it was) was another awesome idea! I could go on, but just know this is one of my very favorite pages EVER!!
This was not too long at all. I loved watching you create the page and have tagged it into my playlists. I'll have to watch it a couple more times to make sure I didn't miss any of these techniques. It turned out beautifully! Patti
I stumbled on this gem today 10-20-2022... there are so many tips and tricks. Loved the pumpkins and adding script to the background. It took them to a whole different level. Very nice!
Oh I just love this creation! I didn't realize it was from 7 years ago! I have a collection of leaves that I have picked up from outside in different areas including Florence Italy where I used to live. I have them saved dried in between book sheets. I paint them in gold or silver usually I have also painted in bronze and gold and they come out really nice. I just love leaves in any shape or form...🍂🍃
This blew me away. I wanted to color those leaves. Just gorgeous. I have been watching a lot of art videos and this is by far one of the best. Can't wait to watch more. ☺️
Wow, you are a true artist, indeed. It is so much fun to watch you work and to hear you explain as you go along. I love how your pages{and cards} come together. Thanks for sharing your love of the crafts.
I agree....absolutely beautiful journal page! I love watching you work and listening to you explain your process. Thanks for sharing your amazing talent.
I love the page, of course fall is my favorite. I believe this one is my favorite also!!! I love watching you do your art, it definitely doesn't seem very long.
Thank you so much for sharing all that you do....it's hard to find an artist I like to watch, every time I do, that person stops making videos ?..... Looking forward to your work. It's great.
To watch you create this gorgeous art journal page is so magical...your talent is genius...the way you use color is magnificent! I adore your art work!
And I love watching your free form art. I have always been more tightly constrained, even in my sculpting. I am going to try to take some lessons from you and relax my flow. It will be a fun stretch. Thanks again for all your great videos.
Lovely layout Vicky and definitely not too long at all. I could watch you create all day! As I type this comment, I can look out my window and see the leaves falling (I live in Connecticut, USA) and I have to say, you've captured the coloring of your leaves perfectly. TFS!
Vicky you made a comment in your voice over of this video that perhaps it was a little too long - your videos are never too long for me. I just watch each and everyone of them and will go back and start all over again for continued inspiration, tips and to remember what kind of paints I should be using on this or that!!! Just love every minute of your videos!!!
I have been watching your videos for a couple of years now, and I don't think there is one card that I haven't liked. I have used your designs in many of my creations. I was so thrilled to see you do this series on art journal pages. This one is stunning - but I still love the book one you did (I'm an avid reader!) I just wanted to tell you how much I admire your work!
This is the first video of yours that I've seen. It's been so fun watching you create - by going step-by-step you are demystifying the creative process just a little bit. I'm amazed at how naturally and effortlessly color and composition comes to you. I also take away from viewing this that art takes time and patience.
Vicky I have watched all of your art journal pages and this is my fav. One reason is that fall and it"s colors are my fav. But I have learned so much from you and I have tried a couple of your pages. Although I had a ball doing them I still could not hold a candle to you. Keep on with the tutorials so that I can keep on learning.
hi, I am just using gel medium ... the one I use to stick things on top of my pages. It dries quickly and I don't get the "wet effect". Just don't use too thick layers!
I got so amazed when you did the smush technic in the leaves, soooo stunning. I'm in love with this page, is perfect. I love we fall is a very beautiful seasson and the colors are just so breathtaking. This is so far my favorite page that you have created. It make me so happy tho watch this.
Love your work Vicky, you are a great artist, thanks for sharing your gift. I recently visit Greece and I felt in love with your amazing food and your country. Hope you can continue to post more videos.
I too am just seein this... not sure how I missed it! I just don't tire of the videos and no way, this was NOT too long at all. what a gorgeous leathery background. I should get at least those three paints to begin with. thanks again!
Gorgeous fall lay out and not to long. As a matter of fact I made myself a little mini note book for journaling tips and I kept pausing to write down the great tips you share like the tendrils such a great idea even for flowers.
You are so creative Vicky! I love your choice of colors - designs - themes. I am so impressed with your organization too! Tidy tidy! I love seeing the pieces come together, I'm thoroughly charmed! Thank you for everything you provide as you go along. Very inspiring.
Puedo pasarme horas viendo todo lo que haces!!! eres una talentosa y amo todo lo que haces, en cada proyecto siempre me sorprendes a mas, un saludo desde Mexico!!!!
Fall is my favorite time of year and even tho here (it's March 2015 in southern Alabama in the United States) we are about to have Spring, I always love Fall colors and textures. Love this layout! Enjoyed the voice over and the whole process. Thanks for sharing as always!
Thanks Vicky for making me want to create an Art Journal. Your idea for creating the book stack was so clever, I can't wait to try it. I love all of the video I've seen from you. Please continue sharing your wonderful ideas. You have a new fan.
This is one of my favorite pages too!! I ♥ fall...so your page fits right in. Thank you so much for explaining how you do things...like making the pumpkins from ovals. Brilliant!! Thank you for sharing your talents. ~Tammy~
Vicki this is so stunning. We have only begun our fall here and the leaves are about halfway through turning their beautiful color. I only wish I could attempt making a page this beautiful. I didn't know Greece had all four season's. Snow? Thinking it's surrounded by water and hot summers, I didn't know. Thank you so much for sharing this journal with us.
I didn't think the video was too long. I loved every minute and picked up several great ideas. I love watching your art journal videos. I hope you do more soon!
I am totally hooked on your video's. I have become addicted to trying all you do and find your art journal work amazing and fascinating. Please keep posting them they are brilliant 😊
very very hard to pick a favorite from your art work so I will say this is ONE of my all time favorites!!! Thank you so much for being such an awesome teacher!!
I really LOVE all of the amazing texture and shine you achieved on these pages, Vicky! Really fabulous work of art! Thanks so much for sharing it with us!
amazingly gorgeous with rich colors!!! You have so many great supplies! I'd love to see your art studio. It must be bautifully organized and well stocked!!! BTW-I got a new moleskin with thicker pages and my problem of curling pages is solved!
Your videos are amazing and wonderful to watch, it makes me want to try and create a book of special quotes that I love, thank you for being such an amazing teacher

This page alone got me into art journalism so many years ago and still remains one of my favorite to watch.
Me, too. At least ones from this journal. I’m rewatching in 2021 while Vickie is on vacation.

I cant decide what my favorite part is. I love the leaves and the pumpkins. Reminds me of my back yard here in New England USA Just beautiful

The wound up string was a beautiful accent to the pumpkins. Really fantastic video. Thanks.
Utterly gorgeous and looks just like fall. You are amazing.
