I am so glad you are back and that your surgery went well. You are such an inspiration! Thank you for another super interesting video 🙏❤

Yay!!!!! Was hoping you’d be back soon. Glad to hear your surgery went well. 🙏🏻You look great. Loved loved this video. The creative process is so fascinating to me and I have discovered that I’m at my overall best when I’m creating. Enjoyed everything you had to say about what hinders your process. For some reason I feel a real connection to you. And I had to chuckle when you began your collage overhead and pulled out a piece of paper with the word Milan on it. I’m currently in Italy and heading back to the states tomorrow via Milan. Anxious to collage my trip using my “stuff” gathered from our trip..ie: train tickets, Napkins, stickers etc. Also, if you could share how you taught yourself how to watercolor I think that would be a cool video. Happy recovery!

Praying for you today. May the angels be with you 🙏🏻😇

Your videos are sooo good!!! I always walk away with lots to ponder. There is so much inspiration, beauty and wisdom to be found here on your channel. Thank you! 🙏❤

I just bought my first tarot deck this week and I've been using it to inspire my daily journaling. Thank you for the inspiration!

I am really enjoying this video. So much resonates with me. Attitude is so very important when dealing with life's situations. Years ago, I went through a very hard time. Whenever I needed it most I heard Reba McIntyre's Song "Walk On" on the radio. And So I walked on. Journaling and crafting have such healing properties and I am very thankfull I get to do both. I have been using the Hobonichi Techo Cousin A5 size for years and it works so well for me. The paper is wonderful and I love the monthly, weekly and daily sections. I just received my 2025 version and am a little giddy with planning its use. It is dated though and so it's not what you are looking for.

You are an absolute delight. Your videos are inspiring me to start a happiness tracker! I’ve also started collecting “paper” and collage “stuff” from some local garage sales. And have even made a few collage pages and it’s so fun!! Thank you for sharing this creative art. I’m super excited! I will definitely keep you in thought and prayer on Oct. 1. You got this, Andrea.❤️

I love Hobonichi paper. I have not had any issues with bleeding. The paper is thin, but very high quality. I prefer it to thick paper journals and notebooks. I would recommend trying it out, maybe just a small undated notebook to experiment...

Trying to figure out what planner works for me right now. I'm glad to hear you change it up according to the phase of life. Happy to see you!

I love that- my little “pocket brain” has dot grid pages and I use those for to do’s and notes - there is something just so flexible about the dot grid right? Happy you’re here! ❤

I use a planner and I love to decorate and make it look pretty. I use a dot grid TN for my purse and I love that I can change it up any week I feel I need a change. Thanks for sharing your journal with us.

This is so great! I have already used these words a couple of times. While I don’t work or have formal obligations to meet deadlines, I am great at self imposing them on projects and goals that I have made for myself. Then I find myself getting so anxious and feeling like I can’t breathe when I am not living up to my expectations. Asking myself what my purpose is takes me back to intention and a healthier outlook. Thanks so much for this video!

Wow! This was so interesting! Thank you for sharing ❤

Great advice! Get down to the core of what's important. Sometimes we all get caught up in the weeds and forget to see the bigger picture. Thanks, Andrea. Good to see you!

Thank you for sharing your carts! Hope your health continues to improve and your energy level allows your creativity to shine 💫

I loved this video! I am glad your treatment is going well. Thank you for all that you share, always so inspiring!

This was a great video! Thanks for all of the info. It’s so interesting…. I’ve gone in and out of journaling for most of my life. And Julia Cameron’s Morning Pages really saved me during Covid. But as of late I’m finding myself on some sort of new creative journey and your style of “collage journals” are really speaking to me. I use to scrapbook when I was young gluing and pasting memorabilia from trips and adventures into those giant 12” scrapbooks. That hobby brought me so much joy. These past few days I’ve started to make some collages. I think I may be onto something….so thank you!! Your rhythm of life with your dog out in nature sounds wonderful. Thanks for sharing. I’m thinking you’ve been practicing your inner work for a long time as you are a very creative person. Would love to hear more about your watercolor work and how you got started with that. Keeping you in good thoughts as you journey with cancer.💕

Good to see you! I'm glad to hear that treatment is going well. 💗I loved to collage as a child and I have recently rediscovered that love from watching you. Every time I get a creative itch, I could just do a page and move on. It isn't a huge time commitment and I love that. I have gone to the thrift store to pick up book on herbs, flowers, quilts, etc. to be able to use them in collages. I hear you on clean sheets. The joy they bring to my middle-age heart! I enjoyed hearing you talk about your spirit and nature. I live in Colorado and every time we make a visit to the ocean, I feel my spirit is renewed. I grew up in Florida and the ocean is part of me.🌊

I always love your honesty. You are looking beautiful 💕

I just found your channel today and I have subscribed because I love your calm voice and I love the journal and collage ideas.

Did you see there was a Stationary Fest in NYC?! I didn’t know about it till it came up in my UA-cam feed as a suggestion. I watched many of those videos. It looked like a fun event. I go to knitting festivals (Maryland Sheep and Wool) but I have never seen stationary fest. I would love to see a Journal Fest.

Good to see your face! Glad you are doing better. I watch a lot of videos but yours really speaks to me on so many levels. I am grateful for your podcast and I put that in my journal on my gratitude page!

So enjoying your videos. You explain things nicely. I have several questions: where do you get all of your paper you use for your collage work? And secondly, when do you journal or make your collages? Is it part of a spiritual practice you do daily? Is it something you do in the evening? I’m just curious how the process works for you. Thank you for your time.

Where is your cover from? It's adorable!

Thanks for doing a knitting episode. I’m knitting a Sunshine Coast in a sunshine yellow color! How many years have you been knitting? I watch lots of knitting videos on UA-cam. I love the phrase “support yarn”!

Thanks for your podcast, I really enjoy your content 😊

Great episode 👍

❤😊

Found your channel through by the lakeside channel. Binge watching all your episodes. So far I am loving it. Will you ever talk about knitting or what you do with that beautiful yarn behind you? I am a knitter first, and a journalist/junk journal/watercolor second. Love lots of crafts!

Wishing you peace through your chemo journey. You inspired me to do some collages today. Say hi to your doggo for me!

Glad I found you! I have always been paralyzed by daily journaling because I felt it had to be perfect and beautiful. Thanks for giving me permission to let that go. I can always put stickers to cover the mistakes, right?! :)

Thanks for another great video. I hope your chemo journey goes well ❤

Thanks so much for another great episode Andrea. I’ll be thinking of you over the next few months and sending you lots of shiitake vibes 🧡💪🏻🧡

Jane Austen. Heck yeah! Pride and Prejudice resides permanently on my nightstand to deal with nights where sleep is elusive. Another awesome episode! So many beautiful journals, and I love the idea of certain journals fitting different needs, struggles and events in our lives. Those journals that don’t look like journals are beautiful. I don’t need to worry about privacy, but would use those just for how lovely they are. Sometimes I know I just have to have a certain sketchbook or journal and I am not even sure why. They are little journals in waiting! For those out there who have dabbled in Tarot, but not been too enthusiastic, I just purchased a new Tarot deck after looking at many. It has made such a difference. I resonate so much more with the beautiful artwork and the messages. It has had a major influence on my art and my journaling. Andrea has used a few different decks in these episodes and that is what prompted me to search out a new one. Andrea, thank you for sharing your chemo journey with us. We are all here for you. Thank goodness for Randy! He is an all around great person and was hands down the best hair stylist I ever had.

WTH? but, I'm learning also to not support two of wands either....

Love you energy! So many great tips herein. I am a victim of my own arbitrary timelines, for sure. Subscribed and look forward to more from you. 💕

Another mention of the ick business that is all about hatred and misogyny...it really makes me question your entire proces, maybe try the why game you mention on this!

Another fantastic video! So many great tips! Thank you!

This is such a good video! Everything you talk about is so true and makes so much sense! Thank you for talking about this. Your advice is really helpful. A little tidy always helps me to get unstuck.

I'm so glad to have found your podcast! Have liked and subscribed 🙂

Such great tips thanks for sharing

Such a great episode! The first suggestion to let go of the guilt struck such a chord with me. While I am not suffering from crafting burnout at the moment, I do have the tendency to feel guilty about so many things including my art. I have no one to answer to at all and yet so often I am feeling guilty for not being in my studio or not producing more or spending the afternoon reading….Yikes. I spent some time jotting down thoughts about this and as I start to see that pattern it will be easier to start letting go of that unhelpful behavior. For me working on cleaning up my space and getting rid of things also helps address the guilt issue…I am trying not to feel guilty about releasing art supplies that don’t resonate with me. We don’t know unless we experiment and try different things what does work for us and makes creating enjoyable. I also tried the journaling exercise of writing down a question and asking why to each successive answer. Wow! I so suggest trying this. I kept going and then realizing (at least for this question) that it just ran out of steam and my I could release my original question. I think different questions will lead to different pathways and/or endings.

Thoroughly enjoyed seeing how you collect your readings into your pocket journal, along with the collage books. This is what my fantasy self wants to create. Very inspiring 😊

I like the idea❤😊

I am really enjoying your videos. I love your background (yarn wall, desk...), such a cosy corner!

.Really enjoy your videos, except purchasing from *obby *obby is a HORRIBLE practice that ruins the vibe of your channel because they are anything but open, loving, expansive. #whereyoubuyspeaklouderthanyourmessage

Another wonderful video! Thank you so much, Andrea. I am so inspired by this channel and all that you share with us. For those considering a traveler’s passport journal I would say-do it! I ordered one from Windrose Custom Goods on Etsy, which is the one Andrea suggested. I got a deep teal color and it is beautifully made. The only thing I wish I had done differently is to get one with pockets on the inside. I am already planning my next one and will definitely get pockets. I have had mine maybe two weeks and am already half way through 2 inserts. Each one shares a similar but slightly different purpose. I use old artwork, Washi tape and other bits I find inspiring in them. I have a tarot deck but haven’t been using it much. After all the beautiful ones Andrea shared, I realized that mine just doesn’t inspire me with its art or its words. So that is the next project to find a pleasing Tarot deck.

Good evening! perfect done~

You've inspired me to start a traveler's passport journal! I am about to take a short trip so I took note of the supplies you enjoy to make myself a little pouch of art materials to take with me. I love watching your collages come to life, thank you!
