thank you so much for watching, I know it’s not a coincidence if you are here today 🤍

Your video did touch me! I think I'm becoming quite jaded of watching different people do art. But yours actually touched me because you spoke of something that was really personal in your past and how you are now responding to it. And your work is beautiful - I am inspired to try some of my own ❤
I don’t know how to put into words the joy I felt listening to your video.
I felt so sad for your younger self feeling crushed by your teacher, her thoughtless reaction to your self expression was heart breaking and I’m sorry for the time you lost lacking confidence in your ability and freedom to express your self!
Your work is such a huge source of inspiration to me and many other and now so is your story. Thank you for sharing this precious insight with us. Hugs. Rachel xxxx
thank you Rachel, you are so kind!! your work is inspirational for the community 🌹 you know that! thank you❤️
You touched my soul! We get so wounded in life. This helps to heal those wounds.
yes, I agree! I’m glad that it’s helpful ❤️ we are all in this together ❤️
Your work is stunning. But most importantly, what you shared was so eloquent, so poignant, simply beautiful. I’m saving this post so I can revisit it. I’m going to share with friends because I believe your words will help so many people. Thank you ❤
oh thank YOU for your lovely words!! really thank you Jennifer 🌹🙏🏻!!
So many of us have had our creative sides subdued for some reason or other. It is time we dusted them off and proudly let them be seen again so we can be wholly ourselves. Thank you for sharing your story, I think it will be meaningful and helpful for many people.
thank you, I agree with you! 🌹 and I hope it will be helpful for as many as possible 🤍
100% with you!!
Crying for so many reasons right now. Bless your sweet soul for sharing what so many of us need to hear and to see.
thank you! release, let go❤️ I’m sure after you will great❤️ thank you so much for your lovely comment 🙏🏻
O Francesca, what a precious story. Thank you so much for sharing it.💞
thank you Diana 🥹🤍
Teachers can be so cruel. Thank you for your story and sharing your beautiful art journal. This video is beautiful.
thank you so much Poppy❤️!
I love that you shared your journey with us, thank you for that. When I was a child of only 5 I was a happy child. My mother divorced and remarried an abusive man who caused me to become withdrawn and introverted. So I turned to art, and journaling. Art gave me a place for my words. ❤️
I’m sorry for what happened to you, and I’m happy that you found healing through art journaling! thank you so much for sharing!! this means a lot!! hugs, Francesca
ps: “art give me a place for my words” sounds like a poem❤️ thanks, it’s beautiful!
Bless your sweet heart and thank you for bearing your soul. What you have created here in your journal is really beautiful and very artistic. Sadly my Mother always made me feel I was useless and somewhat unwanted which I now believe has made me very sensitive. I have found great joy in creating junk journals, creating is a great source of therapy ❤
Hi Rachel, thank you so much for sharing your experience 🤍 I’m sorry for how your mother made you feel you, it’s sad… I’m glad that you have find comfort in making art, it’s therapeutic I agree ! very cathartic! and you are loved ❤ hugs, Francesca
I SO RELATE to those voices, I am still working through them and sometimes I come up on top and am happy with what I create. I am still 'scared' in many ways, but I am becoming braver thanks to artists like yourself out there.
I may just go seek out a face painter next time I see one and get my face painted. I have never had that done before - ever -
It's a battle that never really ends, but knowing that we're not alone in feeling this way helps, thanks for sharing!
Yes, do that! I've only had mine painted once and I was an adult. It was at my god-daughter's birthday party and it made me feel young and playful again.
That most definitely makes the journey a little easier Francesca, thank you for sharing your story. 💖
@@silverpromidithank you so much! it means the world 🤍
💖
Thank you for sharing this! Your free and creative beauty makes the world a better place! Your story and art is so inspiring! ♥️
oh wow! what a lovely comment 🙏🏻 thank you so much 🌹!
Crafting is a great way to clear your head and enjoy yourself. Don't let anyone stand in your creative field. Sometimes art is messy. Your mothers reaction was sweet.❤❤❤❤❤
thank you so much, yes she was the sweetest ☺️❤️
You express and speak the words of my heart that help me in ways I didn’t even know I needed to acknowledge….thank you for all the encouragement and inspiration Francesca‼️🥰✂️❤️✂️
awww this make me so happy! I’m so glad that it’s helpful!! I made this video for people that needed it 🤍🥰 so… yeah❤️
I totally love and understand what you are saying. I love Art Journaling and just journaling, I wish my family would feel that what I do is important to me. Instead they think it’s a waste of time. It’s so nice to listen to someone who gets it. Thank you for sharing with us x
probably because they never tried ! lol ! thank you for sharing your experience, I’m so grateful for your words because for all the ones whose are reading the comments this means feel not alone in this type of situation 🤍 thanks!
…..to create just for the joy of it. 💖💖💖 Thank you for your calming encouragement, Francesca.
thank you Deb! I’m glad that you like it🤍✨
Thank you for sharing your story 💜🦋 I love that you were so open n honest and I can absolutely relate to you
thank you Nora 🙏🏻 your words means so much to me! thanks 🤍
Dear Francesca, although the story is sad, your message is so uplifting. I know this video will be so beneficial for so many of us who have faced similar heartbreaking moments in our lives. I love every one of your videos where you share your lovely and creative journaling sessions, but this one is really special. You continue to be a source of inspiration and joy in my life. ❤❤❤ Francie
thank you Francie! your words are so special, thank you!!
Words can’t express how you touched my heart. I have always been the baby of my family and the black sheep of my family. When I started crafting I was afraid that this would be one more thing that would come between me and my siblings now that both of our parents are gone. It has done the opposite. They embrace me and my creativity. They bring projects to me. They each have told me that God speaks through my creativity. I was also able to repair the spine of a Bible for my oldest sister’s friend. Crafting has been healing not just for me alone, but for my relationship with my siblings. Your video has touched my heart!❤ Thank you for sharing your story!❤
oh wow. what a beautiful story of healing and relationship you have told ❤️ thank you so much for sharing:) your creativity is a gift :) !!
Francesca, you have a beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing your story with us. I find so much heart and inspiration in your videos. ❤
thank you Kelly!! what a kind comment 🥹🙏🏻!! too kind!!
When I was 4 years old our teacher set up easels and gave us paints for the papers. I painted my entire paper completely and it was so fun. But my teacher scolded me for covering the entire paper and not leaving room to put my name and told me to not do that again. It ruined my joy of art in a way and I always held back because of worrying I will do something wrong. I had little creativity. I am 53 now and still struggle with that. Thank you for sharing your similar story and your inspiration! ❤
thank you for sharing ❤️
This brought tears to my eyes. That was so real..
Your a beautiful soul who has inspired that inner child in me again . I’m with you❤
oh this is so beautiful 🤍 thank you for your words, that means a lot to me!
I’m literally lost for words. Your words touched a place deep in my heart and my psyche. I’m still learning that it’s ok to experiment. Things don’t have to be perfect, and it’s just paper. I have had deep reflections and realizations while making junk journals and art. It’s been a healing experience. Thank you so much for sharing this. ❤ You are beautiful and worthy. You are enough ❤
thank you so much Heather 🤍 your words warmed my heart 🤍!! also, thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings 🌹🌹🌹
Thank you. Crafting and sewing really helps me .WHEN I work on quilts I sometimes forget time and have to stop and eat something. Time just flies by. This frees me to be myself.😊❤
this is wonderful Paulette! yes, the magic of the state of “flow” 🤍✨ isn’t it?! thank you for sharing!! ❤️☺️
Thank you for sharing. I found junk journals when covid hit. I don't have consistent time to create but when I do create I am so free.
yes, “I’m so free”… it’s so true! I love this! thank you for sharing 🌹
I am so sorry that she hurt you like that. I am so glad that you are on this healing journal. You are amazing ! You are a great artist . Thank you. You are a great inspiration. You h egg lo me by showing me that it is simple to just try to paint & just to flow & not worry about anything but just to flow on your page & then suddenly you have your masterpiece. Th x no you got motivating me ❤ Thank you for showing me to have that freedom of just painting creating without thinking about perfection. And to say I have the tools within me to create.
“I have the tools within” is like a poem to me! wow, what a beautiful message Elizabeth!! thank you for sharing with me and everyone that reads comments ❤️🌹!! and thank you for your kind words 🌹
I'm with you. About time I dusted those cobwebs and enjoy my own creative expression. Thank you for sharing. I remember when I was about 12 and I bought myself a pair of tie dyed purple flares. I loved those pants until a family friend told me if you like purple your not very intelligent. So at the age of 60 something I'm going to find me some purple pants and relive how I felt wearing those colourful pants.❤ and do some art journalling.
that’s great Karen, I’m with you too and I’m already imagine you so happy with your new purple pants!! 🌹❤️ go for it!! thanks for sharing! hugs, Francesca
ps: someday I’ll paint my face again, yeah (maybe not with indelebile markers this time!! lol)
Your stories touch my soul, your work has made journaling my destiny. Thank you Francesca ❤
oh wow:) this make me so happy 🌹❤️! thank you!
Just what I needed to hear. I have been putting off my art journaling for over a year, taking care of other people. Now it's time to take care of me. Thanks so much.
this make me happy, have fun! the world needs recharged persons 🌹
I always look forward to your videos. This video however, moved me. Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so glad you do what you do and share it with the world. ❤ Kate
thank you so much Kate🌹your words means so much to me! thanks 🤍🙏🏻
You express yourself in such a way that makes your viewers appreciate and respect you, and appreciate and respect themselves. Your channel has changed my life regarding my creativity and the way I feel about being vulnerable. Thank you!
wow Loretta, that’s … wow! your words are incredible special and important to me… that’s exactly why I do what I do… I’m so glad that it’s helpful ❤️ and moment like this are like a confirmation that I’m on the right path! thank you for your kindness ❤️ it means the world !! ❤️
Hello Francesca, I would have loved to have been able to hug the young Francesca who was only expressing her creativity and was crushed by thoughtless words. I see the joy you get from creating and it lifts my heart to watch. Thank you for sharing a piece of your soul and am still sending a hug🩷
you are the sweetest Denise🥹❤️ thank you!
Thank you Francesca for your honestly and vulnerability . You have helped me tap into my true self without allowing my inner critic to roar. Today I will be gentle with myself. Xxx
oh this make me so happy!! I did this video exactly for this🤍 so I’m glad that it was helpful:) hugs Roz🌹!
Thank you so much for being so vulnerable. Our inner child needs healing and love. This is such a beautiful way to do it 💖
thank you so much ❤️🌹!!
Hi Francesca, I'm so glad you were able to get over what the unhappy teacher said to you and used your creativity to express yourself. It's so important to listen to your soul, your inner voice knows what you need. I'm very grateful to you for trusting your followers enough to share. Keep shining with Joy 🌟Sending lots of love. 🌸 Xx
thank you so much, it means a lot! I’m always so anxious when I publish videos like this, but I think it’s important because it can be helpful for someone else, I mean, we are not alone :) thank you so much!
@@JunkJournalJoy No we're not alone, we're all connected! ❤️
@@WiseSkies144yes!! exactly!! ☺️💕
This was a wonderful story to share with us-you were so creative even as a child-how wonderful! Yes our creative side can be crushed by very little really-esp if we are not truly creating for ourselves-going forward I will take the time to create for MySELF-whether it’s beautiful or not -thank you for sharing your story-it will inspire many! 🙏
thank you so much🌹!
Thank you for this...for your vulnerability, for your courage, for sharing this message. thank you.
thank YOU, I’m glad it resonated with you🤍!
Francesca, thanks so much for sharing your story with us. I have a background in software engineering, at my work everything has to be precise, lots of numbers and lines of code. So I turned to scrapbooking and mini albums in order to let my creative side had some fun. But specially in the mini albums I made, there were lots o measumerements and things had to be very well done so the mini album looked good. Sometimes that stressed me so much because they didn´t turn out the way I expected. And then I found junk journaling and it was liberating. Most of the time, when creating a junk journal, I don´t even measure I just tear the paper, stamp and I don´t care if it´s centered or not, I don´t use fancy and expensive tools or materials is so much fun and makes me feel so free. And finding your channel and looking at all the beautiful journals you create is a real joy for me. Thanks so much for showing your work. I love it. YOU´RE A WONDERFUL ARTIST.
oh Ele… thank you for sharing your experience, yes, junk journaling is so freedom infused, it’s like breath again:) I love tear paper instead of using scissors too! I’m so glad that our community is connected by similar experiences and feelings:) this is beautiful! thank you so much for your words! 🤍 and kindness for me! 🥹🙏🏻
I felt the same way about scrapbooking. Sometimes it would stress me out so much. I remember one spread I was working featuring my mom and dad and it didn't please me at all. I felt i had used the wrong paper. I went out and bought all new scrapbook paper and started all over again. Junk journaling is so much relaxing and fun!
Your videos are so genuine. Your art is so beautiful. I am sure they reflect the wonderful person you are and how incredibly generous it is for you to share it all with us. Thank you!!
oh wow, too kind!🌹🌹🌹 thank you for your sweet words🤍🥹
Thank you for being willing to share so transparently . You are a blessing.
thank you so much!❤️
Thank you for sharing. Many of us are blessed by loving parents that encourage us. Yet we allowed those few teachers to over effect us, and for way too many years. Sadly, I think this still happens in schools today. We all need to think before we speak. Words are so powerful to build up and to destroy. Junk journal making is an amazing place to heal. So many forms of art are involved! And perfection does not belong. We can explore and discover and create to your hearts content. Free to discover what is possible, what speaks to our own heart, what our mind comes up with. And if we are really blessed, we find a guide that we very much relate too. ❤😊
I agree 100% with what you said !! 🙌🏻 thank you so much for sharing 🌹!!
Im in feeling a dark way at the moment, undertand and being touching for your words lack of motivation for doing anything. Ive discovered about junk journal a couolenof years ago, did some pryects tonguve them away, but now a days im just feelninwan tondo nothing and then regret of dping nothing .
Thanknyou for such a touching vid, you inspired me, you show me may ive have the key to cheer up my self ❤
absolutely you have the key ! have fun and relax ❤️❤️❤️
I feel exactly like that and I struggle with it every day. Thank you for bringing it to the surface. ❤
I’m glad that was helpful ❤️ thanks!
So very inspiring listening to you speak. Tears are running down my face. I am also sorry for the time you lost. I never really gave it much thought as to why I loved to create and express myself. It seems others appreciate my work, but they don't "feel" it as I do. If I try to share it the usual is "that's nice". I don't let it bother me. I just keep going because the "need to create" is so very strong. No soul is ever too old to begin to express their inner child. Thank you so very much. This is awe inspiring. ❤
it’s never to late, absolutely 🌹 and exactly: if the outcome is beautiful or not for others is very secondary to the things that brings us, like joy and heal… or something inside. thank you for sharing your thoughts, I appreciate your openness in sharing: it’s important for all that are reading the comments, so thank you 🌹🌹🌹☺️
Thank you Francesca - we all have those negative voices in our heads -I struggle with similar thoughts 😕 I'm so glad you found a way to know those words do not define you ❤
thank you Valerie! yes, find a way to observe my thoughts, notice and let go … is a great relief! thank you so much ☺️
and ps: exactly!! “they don’t define me”, you wrote the right words! thanks! 🌹
Sei senza dubbio una delle poche persone più amabili e sensibili che abbia potuto incontrare su YT...in alcuni tuoi video motivazionali hai spesso ridimensionato le paure che a volte ci bloccano. Un abbraccio ❤
grazie, sei gentilissima ❤️❤️❤️!!
I love this story time! Thank you for sharing part of your journey and being open to us "Strangers"... There are many wonderful things about being an adult >> all the restrictions, rules, boxes, etc are the difficult parts.
I love the part about taking time to slow down. You're right, we owe it to ourselves to slow down!
thank you so much ! I’m glad that you like it:) maybe on the surface it doesn’t seems, but we go through the same situations more or less, so we are all connected in some way… this video is my way to say (to me and to the others) that “we are not alone:)” ❤️ so that we are not so “strangers” :) thank you !
We must have had the same art “teacher”! I really needed to hear this, even though your story brought back many painful memories. You put them all into the proper perspective and gave me the encouragement I needed to continue exploring this lovely world of crafting!
oh this makes me happy !! of course this is your sign to continue exploring 🌹 :D have fun !!
ps: and I’m sorry for the behavior of your teacher!
So poignant and real. Thank you for speaking from the heart. You have touched mine.
ohhhh thank you🙏🏻🌹
Your journal is so gorgeous. I am so happy for you that you regained your artist side. I wish negative people when we are young wouldn’t affect us like they do. I had a teacher, first grade, who didn’t like me. Called me by my full name. To this day it still bothers me, that was almost 60 years ago. It’s a shame things like that stay with us. Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so glad I found your videos. It’s not inky what you create but also what you say. I always feel like I’m visiting a friend when I watch your videos TFS! ❤
I’m sorry for your bad teacher:( so sad!
and “ I feel like I’m visiting a friend” is the most beautiful thing you could ever say to me 🥹🎉! thank youuuu!
@@JunkJournalJoy your are so very welcome!! ☺️🥰
@@pambotter365 ☺️☺️❤️!!
Your video was beautiful to listen to Francesca. It was very brave of you to open your heart like that. As we all know, Social Media can sometimes be very cruel. I hope the people that listen to your words appreciate what it took for you to tell us your lovely story. How lucky were you to have such a loving and supportive mother. You take care Francesca. You have such a giving and loving soul. We are lucky to know you. Rose...
thank you! if this video helped just one person in some way, I’ve done my work right and then I’m happy ☺️ thank you Rose !
Thank you for sharing Francesca. So many thoughts and feelings right now … I didn’t have a teacher do something like that to me but it was more like a procession of people that had so many critiques and suggestions. I took all that in and all those thoughts crippled my creativity. I have great ideas but when I go to make something I freeze and talk myself down because someone will just tell me how I could make it better if…
So, I am taking your video as a challenge to myself. I will not get too much in my head and let my inner child free to make and create. That I know everything I need to know and let go of my doubts and the not good enoughs. Admittedly, I am kinda frightened. I can and will push past those moments. This video came along at the right time.
You are amazing! 💙🦋
oh this make me so happy!! thank you for sharing your thoughts!! when these thoughts rise up, observe them and just them let go… like clouds … have fun creating:) hugs!!
Thank you for sharing your story it was touching and very important to share with the world💞
thank you Alena! this means so much to me, I was so afraid to share… so thank you!
So much of what you said resonated with me. Thanks for sharing!
I’m glad that it resonate 🤍!! thank you for let me know Doreen :)
what a beautiful video.. we are never too old to let our inner child have some fun, we need to allow it to come out and play to surprise ourselves of what we are reaĺly capable of when there no boundaries or limits that we restrain ourselves with in daily life, enjoy it when you´re creating magic and beauty. Love your channel and you with all your creativity. Have already learned a lot from you just by watching to give me the inner spark to begin creating some ´stuff´. thank you, x
thank you for your beautiful words! I agree with you, it’s never too late :) and I’m happy that you like my channel 🌹☺️
Francesca! What a beautiful video. You are so right - it is not a coincidence that I have watched and listened. This is such a timely message for me, and you say it all so well. It gives me a lot of encouragement. Thank you. I appreciate you so much. 🥰 Gorgeous journal, too.
that’s great to hear thank you ☺️🙏🏻!!
Francesca, you and your art become more beautiful with each new video. I hope you know how truly special you are!!!💕
oh Brandi ! thank you so much🥹 I don’t know if it’s getting better (I hope so🙏🏻) but at some point something has changed for sure, I’m glad that you noticed 🤍 and appreciated 🥹🙏🏻 because I’m always so scared to expose my “true voice”, in a sense… but I know it can can be helpful for others, so, here I’m… thank you for your kindness 🌹I’m so lucky ti have person like you that watch my videos 🥰🫶 hugs!!
@@JunkJournalJoy we are lucky to have you! Never be scared to share the true you. You are a beautiful soul always remember that!!!

Such courage - not what you said but what you are doing. Thank you. You are inspiring
aww, thank you so much!! your words means a lot (you understand 🌹) thank you!!
I loved watching your video. The whole process of your creativity was inspirational, and your voice is beautiful and soothing to listen to. Your account of your childhood was sad and heartbreaking and I'm so glad you've overcome your inner critic and difficulties you faced as a child and have embraced your life as an Artist.❤
thank you so much, it’s never finished but you know, all are lessons in this journey ❤️ and it’s beautiful in its own way :) thank you for your thoughts, and for your kind words! and for the comment on my voice, because I’m always so insicure about that 🤍🤍🤍
I don’t know whst to say, i am crying! Such a beautiful and valuable message/video❤
awww Monique ❤️
thank you, I’m glad that this spoke to you!
I needed your video today, like so many others have stated this was absolutely beautiful and meaningful in so many ways. And like so many I struggle to let that inner child out because of criticism, etc. Thank you for bearing your soul & sharing your story. My heart really thanks you 💕🥰
I’m glad that this was helpful, it brightened my day:) I send a hug to your inner child and I wish you a day full of creativity and love!!
Ho sempre amato l'idea di tenere un diario, da quando ero piccola... non sono mai riuscita ad essere costante e (un po' mi imbarazza ammetterlo) ho capito che il grosso scoglio era che qualcuno potesse vederlo e giudicarlo. Per questo tentavo sempre di riempirlo con frasi e cose bellissime e finivo per viverlo come un compito piuttosto che un piacere. I tuoi video li ho scoperti da poco e li ho trovati bellissimi e ispiranti. Ti ringrazio perché non parli solo di tecniche ma anche di come converrebbe vivere un diario. Oggi, anche per una serie di cose personali che mi stanno accadendo, la frase "perfection is boring" mi ha fatto aprire un sorriso e sarà la frase della pagina odierna del mio neonato art journal. ❤
Anche se dovrei tatuarmela!!! 😂
mi fa piacere che questo video sia stato utile :) un abbraccio!! 🌹
@@JunkJournalJoy un abbraccio a te. Buon proseguimento ☺️
Thank you Francesca for your relevant words and beautiful soul❤... you always touch my heart...and definitely no coincidence🦋

Wonderful lesson. I needed to hear this beautiful message today. Thank you kindly for sharing❤
thank you Brenda❤️ I’m so happy that it was good to hear ☺️🙏🏻!
Just turned 70 and I too only found art journaling during the pandemic. A little sad to have “lost” too much time, but … it’s never too late.
absolutely, and I believe in divine timing, probably things happens when we are ready / is right for us, even if doesn’t seem 🤍and the feeling for the time “lost” is why now moments for creativity are so honored… who knows❤️ thank you for sharing ❤️!!
You touched my heart ❤

I love the message behind your story. It touched my heart. Can you please do a demonstration of how you made that embellishment that you added at the end? It is also very beautiful.
thank you ! probably that flower will be a part of a course :) 🌹
La creatività non ha limiti né confini ed è bellissimo sperimentare per vedere la nostra mente che magnifico viaggio nella fantasia ci fa fare e alla fine di ogni creazione nasce un nuovo stimolo per continuare a viaggiare per sentirsi vivi, perché l'arte è un gusto personale, molto soggettivo e introspettivo, come le emozioni!
grazie per la condivisione Ondina🤍 bellissime parole :)
Just beautiful. I wonderful gift of love. Thank you for sharing.❤
