Please stop apologising for your tutorial, it’s wonderful and we would all love to see more. Love what you made with tiny family photos, so beautiful. If you feel you can, please make more tutorials, we all love your work and would love to see more. Thank you so much. 😀🇳🇿

Sara-Lee, you are too hard on yourself... I think you are wonderful to show us what and how you do things. Remember, Rome wasn't built in a day, and if you keep up doing this, you will soon be a pro at it. You make everything look so good. I hope you don't mind, but I am copying some of your journal ideas and want to sell the journals in my Etsy shop. They probably won't sell though because I don't know how to do youtube. I think you have a bright future on youtube, you have a big and growing audience, so please don't stop now. I will be 64 in four days (wow, hard to believe how time has gone on) and you give me so much inspiration to try, anyway. Thank you!!!!
@sara-leearmstrong50093 ай бұрын
Hi Nina 🥰 thank you for your kind words ❤️ and no, I don't mind at all! I have found that my journals sell through the youtube video, not by people finding them on etsy, so you might want to take the plunge ! If you can work etsy, you can work youtube! if you do a shout out , that would be great so i can come watch, follow and support you back! 😊

I think you should keep doing these step by step tutorials. You are helping so many of us. The world has a very judgemental and critical part to it, and this is what can hurt and damage our self esteem. But so much more of the world is loving and your tribe will be drawn to you and show their appreciation, support and love. Even though you don’t know me, I have been watching, and I am one of them. Keeping living your joy. Donna xx
