I have special ties to the ocean and the mermaid journal went straight to my heart. You remind me of a precious aunt. She loved nature,the arts and every thing beautiful. She lived in a woodland area she named Forgotten Forest in a log cabin built by her husband and his brothers, and filled with lovely antiques and rugs left to her by her parents. Sounds strange, but they complimented each other, the ornate against the simple. She was well read and wrote a newspaper column free lance. She greatly influenced me. It is so special to be reminded of her when watching you and your talents on youtube. Thank you.
I am so happy to hear that Karen, thankyou. How blessed you are for having had such a lovely person in your life, these memories can make all the difference can't they. Thankyou for your comments x
I can't even wrap my mind around the level of pre-planning this book requires.....to achieve the perfection of how each pages' wave compliments the one before and after. (apparently I can't even wrap my mind around how to describe it either) =) It is truly a work of art in every sense of the word. From the multiple techniques and materials, to the perfect placement of images behind translucent pages. Fabric arts, colour choices, dyeing and blending.....I'm overwhelmed by your skills. It's amazing. Absolutely THE most gorgeous journal I have ever seen. (I had to hit replay immediately after the first viewing. So much detail to take in....I'm in awe.)
I agree with everything you have said about this artist. Wow I’m crying my eyes out I wanna get and I will as soon as I figure out how to purchase from my phone I don’t know how to accomplish that yet But I’m going to learn how My husband passed away a year and a half ago after 42years of a magical marriage. The most romantic man I’ve ever dreamed of now I’m all alone and not sure how to hold on to only every day of thoughts . I have to have a book Iv always journaled all my life and I’m 72years old
I can't believe how many times I have revisited this particular video. From the first time I saw it, it remains one of my absolute most favourite works of art. It's just so stunning...and I'm quite certain I will visit again.
Thankyou so much annie that is so kind. I am working in a new mermaid journal right now so i you should have a new one to watch soon as well, hope you enjoy it x
I spent my youth in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Trip's to the beach was a treat for me. We didn't live by the ocean, but I could see it off in the distance. This book reminds me of that special time.
This has absolutely got to be one of, if not my very favorite journal!!!! It is stunning! (It doesn’t hurt that I am a lover of all things of the sea, and turquoise, aquas and ocean colors are my favorite!). But, your dying and inking techniques are so beautiful, as well as design, and stitching, page edges, and creativity. I’m in love!
If a mermaid had a journal...I love the way you have of looking at things. This really appealed to me because of the beautiful colors and papers you created. The washed-up mermaid really tickled me too.
Holy Mackerel Batman!!! Never saw a prettier journal. Maybe none even close. You put so much thought into the detail and theme. I thought I WAS a mermaid, for a moment!!! Totally STUNNING! WOW! Your talent & creativity is amazing. I hope you are VERY PROUD of this journal. I'm proud FOR YOU! Whoever it's for, will be knocked off their feet. You are just too clever. And unique,....for sure! I'd love to see a video of when the client saw it for 1st time. Whatever did she SAY???!!! It kinda makes me dizzy with unbelief to watch this video. No joke. I can't imagine HOW long it took you, just to tear/cut all the paper into "waves"! You GO girl. You're amazing!!! I don't think I could give it away. I KNOW I couldn't. And the video is so calming & relaxing. A nervous Nelly like me, really appreciates that! I think I will be watching this video many times! Just YAY! 👏 👏 👏 Austin, TX USA
Holy SMOKES Jibid!! Your gorgeous work blows me AWAY!!! This customer is SO INCREDIBLY LUCKY/BLESSED!!!! Owning one of your works of art journals is likened to owning a sweet genuine piece of Monet art!! You are truly the best...a master!! Gorgeous journal! Thank you for brightening up my morning!! 🌻🌼❤🌞🌷
I LOVE the idea of purchasing a time slot Jibid! That gives us more of a 'chance' to possibly own one of these magical treasures! Excited about the tutorial as well! SO EXCITED!!! Thank you, thank you for that!!
OMG what an amazing mermaid journal! I cannot even imagine how long it took you to tear and ink and stitch each page! So stunningly beautiful! I'm sure the purchaser was thrilled with it! You are so very talented Jibid! TYFS Cindy
this journal is without exaggeration The Most Beautiful I have seen!!!!! Everything about it is top drawer. The recipient is one lucky customer. Peace to you and I'm glad you are just going through 'growing pains' and Not preparing to leave us yet. Peace to you. And...thank you for all your inspiration. ~~Sass
I have just about run out of superlatives to describe your amazing journals. This is stunningly beautiful! So artistic with the colours, design, inking, sewing, charms, quotes and so very much more. Without doubt, there is only one Jibid! Wow!
Jibid you are very gifted in every craft you turn your hand to. You have a rare quality of not only imagining how you want a theme to look but actuality making those dreams a reality. You have created a palette of blues any Impressionist painter would have been proud of and the ebb and flow of your silver tipped page edges, look every bit like white horses glinting in the sunlight. You take us down beneath the sea into a world of sea horses, shells scattered like broken necklaces along the sea bed and faint echoes of mermaids sighing as they wait for eternity for their one true love, ever watchful, of course for the fearsome giant prawn :-) Once again, my favourite poem makes an appearance, how can it not, its colours and dreamlike images are perfect for this theme. Your mind must be full of ideas just waiting to be explored, developed and produced. I'm not at all surprised that you want to spend your time on that. I am so excited about your upcoming tutorial. I have long wondered how you do your paper inking. I am so inexperienced in anything like that. I have a suspicion you will be much better at doing tutorials than you give yourself credit for :-) You have a lovely voice and a comfortable relaxed manner and if the odd thing doesn't go exactly as planned, as far as I'm concerned that in itself is a useful part of the learning process. Bye for now and thank you :-)
New subbie here for about two or three weeks and I knew instantly that I was viewing special artistry. Love everything I have seen. All works of Nature, Botanicals,Mountains and Forests and the Sea as well as literature and quotes and sewing appeal to me greatly and I like to incorporate some of those influences in my personal crafts but you truly have a gift for that. My words cannot do justice to this particular piece. Thank you for such beauty. Am so pleased to have found your channel. (I rarely post comments. Here I was obviously moved to write a bit, LOL)
I can't think of an adjective that would properly describe the brilliance and gorgeousness of this journal, Jibid. I simply can't. Thank you for sharing this and I absolutely can't wait for your tutorial video.
This is museum quality work with the inking, images, eco dying, trims, stamping and overall quality. The recipient of this is truly blessed to receive such a treasure from your heart. I've never seen work like this before. You truly a maestro of junk journaling. Brava!!! I'd weep from the soul, in happiness if I ever received anything like this......
Wow, wow, an absolutely stunning journal. So far my very favorite I have seen. Just amazing. Love the colors . Well put together and thought out. Everything matched. Love the pictures and charms Perfect.
This is one of the most unique and amazing mermaid junk journals I've ever seen! I believe that imitation is the best form of flattery....This has inspired me to attempt your brilliant ideas for a mermaid junk journal, but there's no way I'll even come close!
Absolutely beautiful! I love the colored pages and touch of Silver on them. The way they look like waves is very cool too! Love the cover with the colorful fibers. TFS your amazing talent with us.
Your journals just blow my mind with their beauty and cleverness. The woodland journal is exquisite and I am doing some eco dying and printing to gather papers for a bird journal. I just adore your work!!!
This book is stunning! When you fanned it out to the side, revealing all the lovely edges against each other I lunged forward to pause the video so I could take it all in! It's fantastic! Love your work; so inspired! Thanks tons for sharing!
I am absolutely taken with the beauty of this Journal. We are on this Journal Journey with you Dear Jibid, and I'm mostly sure I speak for all of us when I say we can't wait to see what wonderful surprises are just around the corner. 💜💚💙
What a beautiful journal. It is just magical. The inked pages and the way you tore the edges to look like waves makes feel as if I could almost reach out and touch water. You are such a talented person and we are all so lucky to experience your art. When you said you were going to make an announcement, I was so afraid you were going to tell us you had decided not to share your wonderful journals on UA-cam any longer. What a relief when you said you were just making some changes. Thank you so much for continuing to share your stunning work.
Jibid.. what a beautiful journey I just went on with you and this STUNNING journal ! I do understand you wanting to work out your ideas on YOUR Own terms... we love you and I do hope you will re visit this theme.. I think this is a favorite for me... again .. just STUNNING!!
I have no words that could give justice to this amazing work of Art! Absolutely incredible!! I shall have to look at your other videos now. ...Perhaps tomorrow as it’s the small wee hours. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent. Amazing! 💕
There are no words to describe how ethereal this journal is. ALL your work is above and beyond the realm of ordinary thinking and creativity. It’s one thing to be a prolific artist, and entirely another to be creatively inventive at the same time. You are certainly some talent to aspire to! I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for that tutorial! THANK YOU FOR SHARING!
just found your channel today. absolutely the most beautiful journal i've ever seen. amazing vision and creation. it spoke to me...as i love the sea and beach. your talent is amazing and your voice so calming. thank you for sharing. i look forward to going back through your videos. your newest "biggest" fan in Texas.
heheh I saw a comic once, on tumblr, about the prawns being the cockroaches of the sea. The mermaid was always scared of them in the comic, so maybe that's why xD
What a perfectly gorgeous journal!!! Just breath-taking! And I adore the concept -- that if a Mermaid had a journal, this is what she would want it to be. I could not agree more! Your sensitivity & artistic rendering are simply exquisite!
Thank You for all the inspiration and explanation as you showcase your talent! Jibid, Thank you for offering us a tutorial!! Never worry about your videos, please ...You have a very natural ability to explain what you do! We can comprehend because you take the time to point out visually what you are getting at. I have always understood quite well as you explain things. I'm usually in awe when watching your videos because they have so much to offer, if I have to go back and review it is because I missed something and want to take it all in. Again, These videos are a treat and you are a magnificent artist! Looking forward to the tutorial!!
Yes , the paper is absolutely stunning. Gorgeous dramatic images. Inking is definitely one of your superior talents. Lovely transfers and ecodying, stamps. Love the wavy edges.
Oh my gosh. This is beautiful. I can’t even think of the words to describe how beautiful I think this is. Blue is my favorite color, all shades and hues. The stitching is wonderful. Truly beautiful. Thank you for sharing it. I’ve got to get out of my creative comfort zone!
Jibid, your mermaid journal is absolutely gorgeous! Every page is exquisite! I'm thrilled that you will be doing a tutorial for your inked transfer plant images! ❤️
Jibid, your work is stellar. And your videos are so calming to listen to because of your voice and attention to detail. Thanks for posting your junk journals.
Absolutely stunning! The cover is incredible with the the colors and textures of the sea! The side of the pages being wavy and silver edged is so pretty and clever! Gorgeous hand inked and dyed papers! SO creative! Breathtaking! TFS!
Hi Jibid, If I ever was talented and creative enough to make a book like this, it wouldn't leave my house! It would forever live on my coffee table for others to flip through and enjoy. Maybe, someday, when I get my studio sorted out and everything in a place where I can readily find it, I'll make my own version of this. I'll need to watch more videos before I ask you any questions.
I fell in love with this journal as soon as I saw the cover!!! As a blue girl, this is stunning and I just adore the sewing, trims, charms, papers, everything! One day I intend to buy a journal from you.
Jibid, you are on the top of my list of artists. Thank you for your videos! I'm looking forward to seeing what you create once you're able to explore with freedom those ideas you've been nurturing. Janie
Your journals are beautiful works of art. I love the calming effect of looking through the beautiful dyed papers and the way you can make each page flow into the next (no sea pun intended, lol). Thanks so much for sharing your creations here. I love your videos. It is like sitting with a friend and drinking our tea or coffee as you show me what you have been doing lately. Hope you have a great day, Jibid.
Wow, just wow! Mind blowingly gorgeousness! Absolutely stunning journal. I got so much inspiration from this for my daughter's journal, she wants a mermaid journal. Love the torn edges! And the colors are amazing! This is going on my favorite journal playlist for sure! Thanks for sharing this amazing work of art. Love from Denmark
He he he, I know I will. She's almost 15 and she doesn't want cute mermaids, she wants dark scary fantasy mermaids. It's going to be fun to let my imagination go to the dark side (insert evil laugh). I can't wait to start on it, just need to finish the 2 journals and 1album I have started. Lots of love from Denmark
I have been watching your stories unfold in these amazing one of a kind journals. Intelligent approach and whimsical touch are truly magical. So thank you!!!
Hello. As I search for ideas for my first mermaid journal, I so pleasantly run across you and your gorgeous representation of a mermaid journal, I couldn't have been more fortunate. The waves of pages and painting techniques though! This absolutely made my toes twinkle! Lollllll! So, so, so beautifully done!
Just gorgeous!!! This was very inspirational for me. My mermaid journals are in the works and I needed some fresh inspiration. Thank you so much for posting this video.
Soooooo beautiful!!! Words fail me! The cover is gorgeous and I love the inked pages. It would be great if you did a digi kit of background pages like that. Yay - thank you in advance for the tutorial - can't wait!! Have a lovely weekend! xxx
Hello Jibid! I have finally been able to watch this vid and it is beyond special to see and hear you talk about the most beautiful journal I will probably ever own. I have been through every stunning page many times and each time discover more gorgeous and touching detail. I am truly honored to be the custodian of this work of art and will treasure it always. Thank you for making my mermaid dreams come true.
This has to be one of the most stunning albums I've ever seen. I adore anything with a sea theme and this encompasses everything. I particularly love the wave edges of the pages, the beautiful inking and the different textures and stitching. Also, what a lovely piece of fabric you have used to put the book on while displaying it. The whole thing is a work of art. New subscriber!
Gorgeous journal, the colors are so cotton candy yummy. Loved the old pictures of the fish and mermaids. I understand completely your need for slowing down the customs orders and work on ideas in your head. Much love, tfs
Oh my Lord... what a stunning journal, everything is perfect. If I was given this journal it would treasured beyond measure... I am an ocean girl... born near the sea, live near the sea and hopefully will see my final days beside the sea... What a privilege to view each and every page... thank you so much for sharing... Hugs Sass
Absolutely mind blowing! That must be the most beautiful piece of art I have EVER seen. I just love everything about this and am actually speechless. What a talent you have to give your journals the mood you envisioned for them. I can really feel the deep ocean and the waves, love the silver stiching and the charms and the green blue tracing papers. Just absolutely amazing!!
Magical journal Jibid! Looking forward to the tutorial and we should be thanking you for sharing your inspirational work and tips. Amazing how much you’ve achieved in just one year on UA-cam ❤️
Stunning! And I so enjoyed the video too. You make me laugh, 'no, scrap that, just go and live you'd lives ', so funny. And I look forward to the woodland journal tutorial. I'm intrigued to know how to ink pages the way you do. They are very beautiful. I'm new to art journalling, JJs, etc, so I'm learning. I'm in the Uk too, it's good to hear a homegrown voice x
Oh this journal is absolutely breathtaking!! You do such fantastic work!! I love the silver wax and thread!! Such a nice sparkly little touch! Looking forward to the plant inking tutorial!! I really wanted to know how to do that. Thanks so much!! Hugs 😘 -Kelly
I have special ties to the ocean and the mermaid journal went straight to my heart. You remind me of a precious aunt. She loved nature,the arts and every thing beautiful. She lived in a woodland area she named Forgotten Forest in a log cabin built by her husband and his brothers, and filled with lovely antiques and rugs left to her by her parents. Sounds strange, but they complimented each other, the ornate against the simple. She was well read and wrote a newspaper column free lance. She greatly influenced me. It is so special to be reminded of her when watching you and your talents on youtube. Thank you.
I am so happy to hear that Karen, thankyou. How blessed you are for having had such a lovely person in your life, these memories can make all the difference can't they. Thankyou for your comments x
I can't even wrap my mind around the level of pre-planning this book requires.....to achieve the perfection of how each pages' wave compliments the one before and after. (apparently I can't even wrap my mind around how to describe it either) =)
It is truly a work of art in every sense of the word. From the multiple techniques and materials, to the perfect placement of images behind translucent pages. Fabric arts, colour choices, dyeing and blending.....I'm overwhelmed by your skills. It's amazing.
Absolutely THE most gorgeous journal I have ever seen.
(I had to hit replay immediately after the first viewing. So much detail to take in....I'm in awe.)
Annie o thats so sweet, thankyou annie :)
I agree with everything you have said about this artist. Wow I’m crying my eyes out I wanna get and I will as soon as I figure out how to purchase from my phone I don’t know how to accomplish that yet
But I’m going to learn how
My husband passed away a year and a half ago after 42years of a magical marriage.
The most romantic man I’ve ever dreamed of now I’m all alone and not sure how to hold on to only every day of thoughts .
I have to have a book Iv always journaled all my life and I’m 72years old
When I was a kid I was obsessed with this book. 5 years later, I found it again! beautiful book!
Absolutely one of the most beautiful junk journals I have ever seen

Jibid, your work is stellar. And your videos are so calming to listen to because of your voice and attention to detail. Thanks for posting your junk journals.
This is the most beautiful journal I've ever seen!!!
Absolutely fabulous ! Stunning piece of art! Looking forward to tutorials and anything else you share with us in the future.
Absolutely stunning! The cover is incredible with the the colors and textures of the sea! The side of the pages being wavy and silver edged is so pretty and clever! Gorgeous hand inked and dyed papers! SO creative! Breathtaking! TFS!
Love your edges. "Wave shapes". I also love the wavy stitching. It gives a nice consistency to your pages. Inspiration!
once again the most beautiful journal, the owner will be so happy I am sure. Thank you for sharing with us.
Hi Jibid, If I ever was talented and creative enough to make a book like this, it wouldn't leave my house! It would forever live on my coffee table for others to flip through and enjoy. Maybe, someday, when I get my studio sorted out and everything in a place where I can readily find it, I'll make my own version of this. I'll need to watch more videos before I ask you any questions.
Phyllis 4466 thats really sweet, thankyou Phyllis x
For me a lover of your work I am delighted you are going to let your creative energy free. As before I love your work.
Beverley Shepherd thanks so much beverley :)
I fell in love with this journal as soon as I saw the cover!!! As a blue girl, this is stunning and I just adore the sewing, trims, charms, papers, everything! One day I intend to buy a journal from you.
Juni Desiree` thankyou so much juni :)
Jibid, you are on the top of my list of artists. Thank you for your videos! I'm looking forward to seeing what you create once you're able to explore with freedom those ideas you've been nurturing. Janie

Thankyou very much Janina 🤗
Your journals are beautiful works of art. I love the calming effect of looking through the beautiful dyed papers and the way you can make each page flow into the next (no sea pun intended, lol). Thanks so much for sharing your creations here. I love your videos. It is like sitting with a friend and drinking our tea or coffee as you show me what you have been doing lately. Hope you have a great day, Jibid.
Thank you Jibid for sharing another beautiful journal. Sooo looking forward to your tutorial.
This is one of the most beautiful journals that I have seen.
Thankyou so much :)
This is absolutely stunning! I love it! Love the blue papers and wavy edges. Its a beautiful work of art.
Absolutely love this Ocean journal! All of my favorite colors and so thoughtful on the embellishments and the common theme!
Wonderful journal, especially the cover with all the gorgeous fibers!
This is a masterpiece! The most beautiful journal I’ve ever seen!
Wow, just wow! Mind blowingly gorgeousness! Absolutely stunning journal. I got so much inspiration from this for my daughter's journal, she wants a mermaid journal. Love the torn edges! And the colors are amazing! This is going on my favorite journal playlist for sure! Thanks for sharing this amazing work of art. Love from Denmark
Thankyou so much eydna, hope you have fun making your journal x
He he he, I know I will. She's almost 15 and she doesn't want cute mermaids, she wants dark scary fantasy mermaids. It's going to be fun to let my imagination go to the dark side (insert evil laugh). I can't wait to start on it, just need to finish the 2 journals and 1album I have started.
Lots of love from Denmark
Simply stunning. Someday I will learn how to ink and eco dye papers like that. Or dye trying (haha).
Mary Lund lol, thankyou mary x

Hello. As I search for ideas for my first mermaid journal, I so pleasantly run across you and your gorgeous representation of a mermaid journal, I couldn't have been more fortunate. The waves of pages and painting techniques though! This absolutely made my toes twinkle! Lollllll! So, so, so beautifully done!
I think this is the prettiest jj I’ve seen
Thank you for sharing this with me and be safe and God bless you and yours
Just gorgeous!!! This was very inspirational for me. My mermaid journals are in the works and I needed some fresh inspiration. Thank you so much for posting this video.
Soooooo beautiful!!! Words fail me! The cover is gorgeous and I love the inked pages. It would be great if you did a digi kit of background pages like that. Yay - thank you in advance for the tutorial - can't wait!! Have a lovely weekend! xxx

Wow, the wave shaped pages are beautiful!
KILLING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jibid...knocked it out of the park AGAIN!!! Stunning!!! xo
....AND a Tutorial....Yippee!!! xo
Hello Jibid! I have finally been able to watch this vid and it is beyond special to see and hear you talk about the most beautiful journal I will probably ever own. I have been through every stunning page many times and each time discover more gorgeous and touching detail. I am truly honored to be the custodian of this work of art and will treasure it always. Thank you for making my mermaid dreams come true.
This has to be one of the most stunning albums I've ever seen. I adore anything with a sea theme and this encompasses everything. I particularly love the wave edges of the pages, the beautiful inking and the different textures and stitching. Also, what a lovely piece of fabric you have used to put the book on while displaying it. The whole thing is a work of art. New subscriber!
Thankyou for your kind message x
Gorgeous journal, the colors are so cotton candy yummy. Loved the old pictures of the fish and mermaids. I understand completely your need for slowing down the customs orders and work on ideas in your head. Much love, tfs
LOVE this journal....love everything mermaid and sea related... Love all the techniques you've used. TFS
This is my absolute favorite journal of all the journals i have seen on youtube! Simply stunning!
Thankyou so much darlos - there's a new mermaid journal coming soon, i hope you enjoy that too :)
Oh Jibid....this journal is just exquisite. Masterfully artistic. You are a wonder! Sigh.......
Oh my Lord... what a stunning journal, everything is perfect. If I was given this journal it would treasured beyond measure... I am an ocean girl... born near the sea, live near the sea and hopefully will see my final days beside the sea... What a privilege to view each and every page... thank you so much for sharing... Hugs Sass
Bluewattle Lane thats so sweet sass thankyou :)
Superb design. I’m so happy you shared this beautiful hand crafted journal. So much imagination. Love it.
Absolutely mind blowing! That must be the most beautiful piece of art I have EVER seen. I just love everything about this and am actually speechless. What a talent you have to give your journals the mood you envisioned for them. I can really feel the deep ocean and the waves, love the silver stiching and the charms and the green blue tracing papers. Just absolutely amazing!!
Thats so kind of you, thankyou so much :)
I'm always so inspired by your art. Thank you for sharing!
Magical journal Jibid! Looking forward to the tutorial and we should be thanking you for sharing your inspirational work and tips. Amazing how much you’ve achieved in just one year on UA-cam ❤️
Lunar Bloom thankyou Lovely x
Stunning! And I so enjoyed the video too. You make me laugh, 'no, scrap that, just go and live you'd lives ', so funny. And I look forward to the woodland journal tutorial. I'm intrigued to know how to ink pages the way you do. They are very beautiful. I'm new to art journalling, JJs, etc, so I'm learning. I'm in the Uk too, it's good to hear a homegrown voice x
Margaret Pinsent
