Amy such a wonderful gluing session, so glad you had a gentle time. The pages are all set up ready and inviting you back too. Take good care 🍄

Bellísimo y me inspira a empezar sin miedo el collage❤

Hello Amy …. Your glue book is very unique.❤❤❤ blessings my friend

Hi Amy, so lovely to see you again. 😊 I love your glue book, and you along with Ker have inspired me to begin harvesting magazines for my glue book. I picked up some cool Kids National Geographic mags and have them with me while away for work for some fussy cutting. And its always ok to be zapped. No pressure, it comes back. And i do believe what Ker says about the longer we leave it the harder it is to go back. Having a glue book is a perfect way to get back into the swing of things, even if its only a few minutes on a page, or even the fussy cutting in preparation. Wishing you and all the critters at Doki Doki Forest a fab day. Big hugs, my friend. 😊🤗🧚‍♀️🍄🌈🌊🐞💥❤️‍🔥💜💃

Lots of great stuff going on here! Those blackberries that nearly filled the page, so scrumptious and the purple elephants page...LOVE IT. Sometimes, it's enough to just flip through the pages you've already done, sometimes, that's just enough. I have a pic of my four Bostons all sleeping together on the couch...I'll have to send to you...all intertwined like those wonderful little B&W pups...so adorable. What helps (warning, it's not soft and fuzzy, lol) but I'm a firm believer in the more you do of a thing, the more of the thing you'll do.The more you write, the more you'll write. Writing every day builds not only a habit, but momentum (whether it's exercise, reading, painting, walking, meditating, whatever it happens to be: making art: no difference). I've taught writing/creative and otherwise for decades and one thing I've heard from students forever is "I have writer's block"...to which I reply: there's no such thing, lol. "Being blocked" is just an excuse creatives tend to use for some reason. But really, we should come at it like any other thing that needs doing, just because it's a creative endeavor doesn't make it "magic". There's no such thing as "waitress'' block", "accountant's block" or "truck driver's block" or "housecleaning block", meh: I'm just not feelin' it...Well, okay, there may very well housecleaning block, come to think of it 🤔 And it's kinda' like skipping school, the longer you're out, the harder it is to go back... Here's a kinder-gentler thing that also helps a great deal: stop when you're wound up vs. stopping when you're spent. If you leave in the middle of something, you know just where to pick up the next day. If you work until "the end" where is there to go? Leave yourself breadcrumbs to start again the next day, something to be excited about, that your brain gets to work on the background until the next session, then you and your brain/mind will be chompin' at the bit to get to it. 😉 Either way, no reason to be hard on yourself. There's always a lot going on, and sometimes we just need a break. Even from making art/being creative, having fun in our giant toy box. And that's ok. Being the literal beast that I am, I think it's perfectly okay as long as we don't get lost in it. Call it what it is, a break...mojo is never lost. It's always right there with you, ready and waiting ✨💜🖤💚

Great gluebooking session Amy 🤗 Yes I find gluebooking fun to do anytime. I love how your pages come out❣️ I usually fill up with smaller images but am gonna try backgrounds diary next time 👍 thanks 🌻💖🌻

hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Amy and all my friends at doki doki forest. Obviously one can clearly see that zapped mojo no longer exists.........just loved this vid. That creativity has never left.......it was there all this time, you just had to exercise it. ............ yum cheesecake growing on plants........ That works for me Somewhere i read a humorus thought.............. Chocolate is derived from the cacao bean. the bean is a veg. Sugar is from the sugar cane or beet........... both are plants which just proves the point that chocolate is a vegetable Tweet Tweet

Yes, you can definitely see that the longer you were gluing the more you got into your stride. That happens to me when I am just sitting down to a session. Your pages turned out wonderful. I was tickled to see some of the purple items I sent. I also was pleased to see some of the pictures out of the magazines that I had just harvested out of earlier today! Some of those images are like old friends ha ha! Sometimes I just like to do backgrounds just to get rolling and then later come back and glue my focal pieces in when I’m warmed up. But it was all fun to watch and I just love listening to your chatter as you played. The thought process behind the gluing is often fascinating to me.

Hello Amy 🐿🦊 I loveeeee watching you gluing images in your colorful book 🥰🥰 always so fun ! I love your style of gluebooking my friend 💗 I’m happy your mojo is back 😊 I’m still looking for mine 🧐 thanks for the inspiration 💗 have a wonderful week hun 🎨🌈 hugsssss

Love sped up and voice over! Great video! Love your pages! I love using big background pages also to start!!! I need to start a composition book gluebook because I've got tons of stuff to get into one! It will be next! For sure!!!!

I enjoyed. You have inspired me. Im going to practice working through the uncomfortable and keep going till I enjoy.

Looking good 👍❤😊 I like to try and get the background on first. A bit tedious, but that way I get yo play with the other images.

HI AMY! I JUST HAD KNEE REPLACEMENT AND WHILE GOING THROUGH PAIN I FIND THAT WATCHING YOUR GLUING SECTION IS VERY SOOTHING AND EASES TOLERANCE OF THE PAIN SO MUCH BETTER. I ALSO DO GLUING BUT NO ENERGY RIGHT NOW. I APPOLOGIZE FOR WRITING IN ALL CAPS. ITS BETTER FOR MY TYPING. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING. 🎄✨🌻

If I need to relax, I just put one image per page--big, small, whatever; then later I come back to fill in...sometimes working around one special picture I REALLY like...depends on the day....hugs, Julierose🥰

Lovely to see you I was about to message you to see if you were ok. The book is definitely growing into a super fun collection which as you say will never end. Thank you for sharing 🤞for a thrifty Thursday ❤🧚‍♂️

Absolutely ❤'d your video and voice over! I just came across your channel & had to subscribe! Glue Booking has helped me work through my creative blocks. I, too, have those days it's difficult to get into the swing of it & my process is a ride on the struggle bus 😂.

Hi Amy I’ve come over from Janet trying to understand glue books and you mentioned soul collage. Do you still do this and if not why? Trying to understand my crafting ❤
