    I share the same interests in books as my daughter. We both love reading. It is so enjoyable to read the same book and then talk about them.
    Gee! I follow Cece as well. I have tried some of her watercolour doodles too. They are so easy to do and look so nice.

    I love these little 'zines! I have one of your books (and another in my virtual shopping cart) and really love your drawing style and your relaxed approach to journaling. I've added a strip of washi tape along the long side of one of the 'open pages of my 'zine to create a pocket for tickets or other ephemera from the month. This small book is so easy to tuck in my handbag for a quick note or sketch while I'm out and about. Cheers!

    Hi Helen. I am behind on watching your videos so will have to do some catch up. I love your zines! Anything you do is always so lovely with your beautiful printing and handwriting! I watch CeeCee. She is very talented! I am glad you are getting more used to being in front of the camera. You are a lovely person and you speak well and just be yourself! Sometimes people goof up and they will leave it in, and that is fine too. We are all human! You could stand on your head if you'd like and I'd still watch. (others would too, because that is quite a feat!!) Haha!! When you watch someone on YT routinely you get to feel like you know them and they become friends. At least that is how I feel. I used to watch a channel I loved and she just up and quit. I was so sad. I knew her kids and had watched them from day one, and I loved watching her playing with her children, them growing up, and all her content. She is still on Instagram I think, but it's not the same. Okay....I am rambling on................

    Hi Helen, I have been following you for about a year already but just recently first commented.. But I want to say thank you for this absolutely beautiful idea to make monthly zines. I love to watch you make them. While I am watching this video, I got the idea that at the end of the year, it"d be fun to make a traveler's notebook style cover out of cardboard for example to hold them all. It'd be a chunky little creature but... Oh well haha. Meanwhile I have been making more origami envelopes. Thanks for this tutorial as well. Have a lovely day, stay safe and healthy. Greetings from Aachen, Germany 🦉
