Wow Stephanie! Your journal is really exceptional, honestly. This is a wonderful theme and you’ve done a wonderful job of developing your concept. I love the little notes and explanations. My favorite part is a the layering. Really lovely.
Thank you very much Kathleen, I really appreciate it! It's been fun to see the layering coming together as I put the pages together.
You have so many clever ideas! I would love to know how to make the little box, the infinity folding papers and how you bind the book together.
Me, too! I tried to leave this same question on the Graphics Fairy website, but it's missing now. These are such important parts of the video that it's a shame not to have some direction on how it's done. It's a beautiful journal with lots of magical parts. I've searched for the pull string box without any luck. I think I've figured it out and seems simpler than it looks.
Thank you very much Victoria, I really appreciate it! I adapted several paper engineering techniques to create these interactive elements inspired by different sources. I share more on my Instagram account.
@@CJWright-auntiemoon Thank you so much! Love to hear that you saw magic in that journal! I adapted several paper engineering techniques to create these interactive elements inspired by different sources. I share more on my Instagram account.
Such a fascinating and beautiful journal! I agree with others that I would love to see a tutorial video on making the drawstring box.

Stephanie, not only was your build super interesting and beautiful but I loved learning tiny bit of arabic culture. Thank you so much for sharing your creation and your knowledge.
Thank you so much Jeanna! I'm happy that you enjoyed exploring the Arabic book art with me!
Beautiful job!!! I'd love to see how you did the folded piece on cover!! I love the little notes. It's AMAZING to me when I find ancient images & writings I can include in my journals. How difficult they did them all free hand. No computers back then!!! There's great stuff in Public Domain we can use free. And I love them. I like to put a description on them. When I use pieces of an old book or newspaper, etc., I stamp the corner with the date and country it came from. So that information is retained with the piece. And I usually cut out the picture notes to include so the descriptions are not lost. I love to research anything I'm working on. I think its very interesting!! Thx for sharing this wonderful journal and your clever ideas!!!

Another beautiful Job Stephanie!!! So interactive and I love the way your journals have a story.
Thank you very much Lesly! I always enjoy telling a story through my journals as an invitation to travel.
Stephanie! This is so FUN and informative but above it all, delightfully lovely! The first page with the hidden origami secret pocket is wonderful. The layered collage it amazing. I love layering. Your sweet voice narrates your creation so prettily. Thanks so much for sharing your talent!
Thank you so much Dodi! Your lovely words really touch me.
You have created a beautiful, impressive journal! Thank you so much for sharing it
Thank you so much for watching!
I love this journal. The page that turns into a box is my favorite! How did you do that? Super cool and creative. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much! I adapted several paper engineering techniques to create these interactive elements inspired by different sources and adding my own ideas. I will continue to share my creations on my Instagram.
This was the most educational journal flip thru that I have ever seen. All the information is so fascinating. Did you say you learned how to remove the backgrounds from images and altered images, etc on the Graphics Fairy site? I never knew they had that.
Thank you so much for your lovely words, I really appreciate it. I did learned to remove backgrounds on the Graphics Fairy Premium Membership website. The Digital Tutorial is "remove a white background"
This is truly a fantastic journal how did you do that wonderful box? It really is so different to most journals. Thank you.
Thank you very much, love to hear that you enjoyed my journal. I adapted several paper engineering techniques to create these interactive elements inspired by different sources. I share more on my Instagram account.
Such a beautiful and elegant journal. Thank you for the detailed explanation of the contents and for the insight into your creative process.
You are so welcome!
Thank you very much! Happy to hear that you also enjoyed the little notes that I shared about Arabic Book Arts
Stephanie,
Your journal is delightful! I loved that it tells a story and indeed provides knowledge as well as pleasure. Your touches of origami and Turkish paper folding are so intriguing. Thank you for sharing and inspiring me. I will be exploring more of your work. It's fascinating ❤
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for your support. I really appreciate that you noticed all these details and will be exploring my work.
This is such a fascinating journal! I especially love the card with the string and box! 🥰
Thank you very much Sharon! I love your work and they have been great sources of inspiration for me when I started creating journals.
This is absolutely exquisite, Stephanie. Every page was an absolute treat. I would love to learn how to do the Persian map folding technique for the binding, and also, and especially, how to make that incredible unfolding box! I gasped when you pulled on the string! Thank you for sharing your incredible work. What a treasure it is.
Thank you so much!
