Totally enjoyed watching this video. Please do another cover. Wonderful relaxing process to see you creating with color. Great to hear you enjoyed the retreat.
Thanks Ceri. Every single surface of your journal is beautiful and an inspiring place to doodle. I always learn things from you, including random tips that are not at all the point of the video. Today's tip: pop a bead in craft paint to help shake it up. Yes! Brilliant! Why have I never thought of this before?
Dyan Reaveley actually sells elastics that go with her covers as well. Lovely cover. Would love to see you do another. Variety is the spice of life and art is an expression of your mood, so it never hurts to have many varieties. Thank you for sharing your work.
Ceri, here's a suggestion - you could get purses and backpacks at thrift stores and cut them into the size and shapes you want, inexpensive and you can actually find real leather from time to time.
Ceri, enjoyed this video, it was wonderful to watch you work and I always learn so so much from you, you asked if you wanted you to do another cover. Well to be truthful, you could play with mud and sticks and I would love to watch you create, so yes do another cover. I learn so much from you all the time. Had a great time with you today. Thanks so much Ceri.
Wow, love the little books! And Mister Ceri, also consider Kraft-tex as a leather-replacement material. Your straw protection system is BRILLIANT! Hooray for you for asking Pebeo how to pronounce their brand! I cannot wait to see that LIVE STREAMED! Hugs, deb
The entire set, journal cover and journals, absolutely WOW. I would never in a million years come up with the banding method shown. And yes, you matched the cover and cards perfectly❤ Thank you so much for sharing😊
I LOVED this video! The colors, patterns, all of it. In the beginning I wanted to reach thru the screen and take all your notebooks lol! They are SO amazing Ceri! Using a straw was such a brilliant solution to keeping the elastic paint free. I have never seen those rubber extenders, what a smart idea! I can’t believe how well you matched your cover to your tags, well done!
Love that so much! The contrast, yet harmony between the outside and inside covers is fabulous. It is a very uplifting work of art. Love your stamps too. They’ll definitely be on my birthday wish list! So grateful for all that you do and share.
Hello Ceri, I have been watching your videos and cutting out your tags (which are wonderful), I want to thank you for sharing, your voice and content are soothing, you are appreciated. Hugs from Australia.
Just loved this video, Ceri. Many thanks for your generous sharing of yourself alongside your art making. I am so helped by your comments on OCD for example and anxiety. I’ve had enough brushes with mental wobblies to know that creative pursuits are life giving, and yet when you mentioned Zen doodles and anxiousness it gave me pause for thought. There are some types of art and craft that I too stay somewhat clear of if I’ve got a bit too much going on. Enough said! Fabulous video and yes, please do another cover and perhaps you will make another travel notebook insert for us??? Every blessing!
A canvas cover looks very sturdy. Painting it yourself makes it special. Thanks for sharing. Any length video is fine with me, I can fast forward or rewind to rewatch the details.
Wow! You did good. Love what you created, love the colors, and love your stamps. Beautiful work, I'm sure it will inspire you to do more inside. Would love to see inside from time to time. And would love to see you do another one when you feel like it. Thanks for sharing this!
Hello hello. I watched the second cover first. I can magnify the screen when using my iPad to watch. I adore what you’ve done with the paints. I’m learning to embrace the wonky and weird. I will be crafting with you tomorrow. I bought some canvas paper and I have some elastic and eyelets to make my own cover. Thank you for the inspiration. 💜
Loved watching this take shape! Than you for sharing so much of yourself and your talent with us. Also, I would love to watch you decorate the second cover, too, if you have time in your busy schedule ❤.
Love that you create your own cover art that is certain to inspire as you travel. You mentioned an economical way to create a leather or similar cover. One option is to check charity/thrift/up shops for leather clothing. I have collected quite a few leather garments that have yards and yards of leather for only a few dollars. Another option is garments from ‘ultrasuede’, which was one of the first successful faux suedes. It wears and doesn’t fray just as leather does. Home dec fabrics can also be found for little money and can wear very well. Fraying can be stopped with a product called Fray Check.
Loved this! and have just recieved two covers and one insert...just to see what they looked like in real life! the blank ones were out of stock, but hopefully they will let me know when they are back in stock!! Loved watching this at least three tmes so far!!
That is an Amazing "Ceridori" The colors are Stunning together. Have you tried the Neurographic Art? It's very meditative and the results are beautiful. Nicole got me into it.
Yes I have and it really pushed my anxiety to it’s limits however I’m looking at zentangling and I’m finding that more calming, possibly because of the structure and repetitive nature of the art.
this is beautiful. the emotions that go with it, even more so. Thank you for sharing, not just your process, but your thoughts. They are very precious. xx
Never doubt that you’re an artist, dear! Your cover is fab. Love the colors and your stamps are awesome. I adore mixed media, and love watching you have a play. ❤
Ceri please do make another mindoro cover video. I watch you all the time. You are extremely talented and I have learned so much from you! Keep up the good work. Practice your doodling!😂
I have bought my own color elastics and used them. I have also used the very large colored elastic head bands as the closure. They match very well to you book colors.
Lovely cover and books! Tip for getting wipes out of the package. Put a rubber band/elastic around one end. It'll make pulling them out easier. Would love seeing another cover done.
Hooray, Ceri. Most awesome job. I have never done mixed media till I started watching you. You made this your own and I want to do the same, only in cool colors. Ceri Griffiths you are contagious! I am not an artist, but I like your thinking. I want to copy you. Thanks so very much. I love your enthusiasm.
I recently moved and bless my younger son he managed to put a hole in one of my large canvases. I'm thinking I could cut two pieces out and put a piece of felt in between the canvases and sew one of these covers.😁
Hi Ceri! Love your journal, beautiful. I did not see the link for you video on the kissing technique for your painty papers in one of your journal inserts. TFS 👏🥰
Hi Ceri, I enjoy your videos. You're an inspiration. I don't know if you have a Dollar Tree Store where you are. I am in Canada. If you can find Vinyl, lightweight and easy to clean placemats They measure 12x18-in. They make wonderful journal covers. They come in various themes colours etc., some of them can look like faux leather. I hope this can help you. :)
Hello Ceri, love watching your videos, they are so inspiring to me! I live in France and I'm a store department manager for Arts and Craft products. In fact your Pébéo pronunciation is quite close, just say the letter é like you would in the word "mess". And you have it! Greetings from Brittany!
Hello Ceri the cover is beautiful🤩 and yes please wil you make the other cover. Is it possible to make a cover with collages?? I love to see one of these done. Greets Simone
Ceri have a look at Treasure books. 7 ways to making your own bookbinding cloth plus how to use.
I enjoy watching Natasha.
Have a great day.❤
I'll check it out, thank you
Don't doubt yourself. I loved everything you did in this video. It's a WOW!!
Thank you so much!
Totally enjoyed watching this video. Please do another cover. Wonderful relaxing process to see you creating with color. Great to hear you enjoyed the retreat.
Thank you so much and yes everyone wants me to film the other cover so I will.
Ceri, what you made was just fabulous, very proud of you, yes please do another video, I love listening to you and watch you create.
Thank you! Will do
Love the plan. Love the journey you are on. Being anxious is totally understandable. TFS. Thanks for being braver than I am. KOL. 🥰🙏
Ceri, just super. You are truly an inspiration, never doubt yourself. Thank you for sharing your talents. X.
You are so welcome, thank you
Yes please make a video of the other cover. Take you for sharing your fabulous gift of art and creativity. ❤😊❤

Will do

So nice of you, thank you

I already use Kraft-tex for covers but never thought of painting it thank you.
I have a ready to go travel carrier with my basic supplies. A great addition to my collection. I love making backgrounds , now a project!

Wonderful to spend an hour with you Ceri. If it had been two, it would only have been better. So totally jealous of how organised you are! 😉

Totally agree!

I'm so glad!
"Clean-up on aisle 9..." Ceri, you crack me up! I just love your videos; I learn so much from you! Thank you!
Sometimes I’m even surprised at what I say when I’m editing.
I LOVED this video! The colors, patterns, all of it. In the beginning I wanted to reach thru the screen and take all your notebooks lol! They are SO amazing Ceri! Using a straw was such a brilliant solution to keeping the elastic paint free. I have never seen those rubber extenders, what a smart idea! I can’t believe how well you matched your cover to your tags, well done!
Thank you Nicole, those rubber extenders are normally sold in an accessories pack.
Love that so much! The contrast, yet harmony between the outside and inside covers is fabulous. It is a very uplifting work of art. Love your stamps too. They’ll definitely be on my birthday wish list! So grateful for all that you do and share.
Thank you so much, I love to share.
Yes please do the other one on video! I love this.

I absolutely love your esthetic.......so refreshing and beautiful. ❤

Zen tangle is repetitive and calming as the patterns emerge. Very satisfying.
I’m researching it at the moment and it is fascinating.
@@CeriGriffiths be warned its addictive.😊🤗👍
Yet another inspirational video 😊. Thank you so much 😊.

That is an Amazing "Ceridori"
The colors are Stunning together.

Hi Ceri, I think this is a really super idea, your cover turned out really exciting. Thanks for sharing. Xx
You are so welcome Bella
❤❤❤ I am inspired and I learned some really cool things 💖🥰
Fabulous, thank you.
Now you need to make some tags with the orange/yellow/cream/dark teal! 😃
It’s an idea.
Awesome
Thank you
I recently moved and bless my younger son he managed to put a hole in one of my large canvases. I'm thinking I could cut two pieces out and put a piece of felt in between the canvases and sew one of these covers.😁
I have taken thrift store art pieces on canvas in the past, cut them up and made covers out of them. It works well.
Please make a video of your 2nd cover. I love your work. ❤️
I will, thank you
Hi Ceri! Love your journal, beautiful. I did not see the link for you video on the kissing technique for your painty papers in one of your journal inserts. TFS 👏🥰
Fran I'd say theres no specific video for the kissing technique it's just something you'll find in the majority of the gel printing videos I film.
