    Oh my! This may just give me the courage I needed to do a collage! I lay something out with no clue where anything should go and I don't like the way it looks. I'm not an artist, but I want to dabble in paper crafting and now I think I stand a chance of it looking ok! You're explanation makes sense to me! Thank you very much!

    You know, the way you explain things like composition and balance just makes it so totally understandable. ❤

  • @elizabethkeeling-carreau1873

    I love seeing this rule played out to create the perfect collage. It’s perfectly simple and so effective with your addition of paint. Love this. 🤗🇨🇦🤗

    3, that magic number in crafting & decorating! Lol. Beautiful page and story! I still love that you have stories for your collages!!!

    You taught us with such quiet patience in this video. I'd never come across the rule of thirds before or how to use a grid pattern .
    Thank you.

    Barbara, I loved your grid system. Number 3 is my favorite number. 💜💜💜

    You've taught me that collaging, especially with people, is so much easier (and fun) if I create a story about them, like you did for this music teacher who is longing for home. I've used the rule of thirds in photography, but never - at least not intentionally - in collage... I'm not sure why. Love your page, baby girl! Hugs, MomK 🤗❤️🌵❤️🤗

    Lol being a painter this composition technique is a favourite. It always works. I love that you apply logical like giving her wings because she's floating. Nonsense collage has a lovely whimsical quality, I should try some because I also over plan art journaling....well....everything🙈. Your stories are so cute, you should definitely do a story book journal. Yes top down gluing saves a lot of hassle! Awesome. Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖

    Dein überarbeitetes Journal ist so wirklich noch schöner! 😊 Kurz und knapp, tolle Tipps… 👍 Ich kenne die Theorie mit dem Raster, mir fällt es aber bei dieser Theorie sehr schwer, irgendwas weiteres als den Fokuspunkt der Collage davon abzuleiten. Keine Ahnung, warum das so ist… ich finde, es passt dann häufig bei mir nicht. Bei dir passt das alles super! Süße Geschichte, die du zu deiner Collage erfunden hast 😊.
    Liebe Grüße Nicole

    Love this! I have yet to do a full collage page, only smaller stuff. Mostly because I’m not good at it. However, I got a book that I am dedicating to practice and playing with different art. I saved this video and will be rewatching and collaging along side! I keep telling myself ‘no more excuses and just have fun!’ 😂 many hugs for being so inspirational 😘🤗❤

    I have never applied the rule of thirds to my work. I just go with what is pleasing to my eye. Have you ever tried holding that tracing paper “rule of thirds” grid to other finished pages in that journal to see if you had followed the rule on your own without the grid’s assistance?
