    Kate, you are so fun to watch!! I craft just like that....talking to myself (out loud)!!
    "Give me a minute while I overthink this, ok?!!!"
    Isn't that how all creative minds work?
    Turned out great and watching you work through it all was fantastic!
    Thanks for stepping out of your comfort zone.

    I LOVED watching the process of being faced with a blank page, seeing you work through finding a solution, make a decision, change your mind part way through because another idea popped into your head, contemplate the new idea and finally, watching as the final decision is made. And look how WONDERFULLY it turned out. It’s super fun. I’d LOVE to watch this process play out on the flip up at the back of your journal too.

    I really enjoyed seeing how you think through things and make decisions. I also liked knowing that you spend a lot of time just pondering what to do. I often wonder if I'm the only one who takes forever to figure out what to do with any given page. The end product is amazing and, of course, I want to run and try to recreate it right this minute, but, alas, I've already started two other projects that have taken over my craft space so I must exercise some self-control. Sigh.

      At 10pm on Sunday night I suddenly remembered that I hadn't edited my video! I thought it'd take me an hour or so but I didn't finish until 2am!! Than it took 11 hours to upload! I really need to get ahead so I have a few lined up, but oh well. A little drama is good for me :)

    I love your videos with all the hidden pockets, flips, etc. It reminds me to add those in. One helpful hint I got early on was to cut a V in your Folder where the 2 pages combine that helps it lay flat. You said see it pops open then added another score line. By cutting a V it removes a lot of the bulk in the center fold.

    This was my first time watching you and I enjoyed it very much. You were fun, instructive, interesting. I really like the portfolio styles, I got hooked on them a couple years ago but then during covid I found out about junk journaling. After a 10 day stay in hospital (not covid) I was recooping for 3 months and junk journaling saved me. It is nice to find you for a detour back to this style. Loved it, keep up the great art and you did super for just punting out of the gate. Show off you creativity and out of your comfort zone is always good for us! I will be happy to see more. Be Blessed!
