Whenever I find myself in a creative rut, my favourite remedy is to watch one (or many) of your videos and this one has just made it to the top of that list. Thank you for sharing.

I have been feeling stuck in a rut in many ways for at least three years now. I am going through some major life changes and unsure where to go and what to do with myself. I have done a few courses, tried new creative practices but nothing seems to stick and I am feeling a bit lost. Your videos are always inspiring and I look forward to the weekly appointment. You don't just give me ideas for my paper crafts, you are also uplifting because of your positivity and resourcefulness ❤

Thank you for always staying positive. Your videos are like therapy for me. The fact that you care about your audience shines through in abundance. It makes an enormous amount of difference to all of us who love and follow you.

You are the best papercraft creator I’ve seen, so that comes with high expectations you feel. Just chill out as you’ve done here. Cut and paste, tape and fold, stick and rip… feel better!

My favorite thing I do when I'm in a rut, is to organize my craft room. Usually I find things that I either forgot about, or didn't even know I HAD! So fun! That's why I never seem to finish, because I get so inspired that I stop organizing and start playing 😂
You have inspired me so much that I'm now going to play with my watercolors! Thanks for the inspiration 🙏 💕

To me, your "doodling" looks like fine art to me! Simple enough to be recognized and definitely embellished beyond what my imagination would accomplish.

First of all I can't draw. With your demonstration I just began and now I can't say I can't draw. My card turned out to be sellable. Amazing and thank you.

Whenever I don't feel creative I turn to my tiny scrappy store and make a little book of collage page. That usually get's the juices flowing. Thanks for your ideas here. The painty section that ended up as cards was very inspiring for me. 🥰🥰🥰

"Motivation follows action" oh my word thank you so much!!!! I have been stuck in a life rut for 3 months. That phrase is a light bulb moment for me. I'm going to put that on my mirror so I see it every morning from now on. It will inspire me in everything not just crafting. I have often said it before but you are a genius! Thank you ❤xxx

We all lose are mojo at times . My best friend of 35 years died of cancer in May . I have to push myself to do something. Sometimes it's just looking at my paper but that's ok .

Thank you for this!! I have been struggling to find motivation to get back into my craft room! Now I have a place to start! ❤

Bonjour votre vidéo m’a beaucoup aidé car je partage exactement tout ce que vous avez dit ! Vos 3 projets ont un beau rendu avec une préférence pour le 3ème 😊 merci beaucoup !

Awesome kickstart! I just had eye surgery and am in the mood to create but can’t see well, but I can watercolor up papers, join book pages and other simple things in preparation of when I can see well again! Thank you for saving me from boredom while I heal!

@bettinavilchis1208 2 weeks ago

You are soooo creative. Love your humor, and I laugh a lot when you found your computer pice...glorious moment !

@SusanDDesigns 12 days ago

Thank you for this fabulous video! I am one of your examples, recovering from surgery and feeling like doing nothing! I am now motivated to paint some pages, doodle, and flow from that point. Good vibes to you and your followers💜🌞🙏🎊

Those hearts and flowers you made are literally art journal fodder. You are not just a crafter, you are an artist too. Please show us some of your art/craft journals if you feel uninspired again. Please!! Pretty Please? 🙏🏻
