Vicky Papaioannou –> you are here
I loved to see how your “antiqued” the begonia. Then it’s perfect for Shabby Chic cards.
Stunning! You are so creative!
I enjoyed the build of the journal page. I haven’t seen the other in the series, so it might be a great time to catch up. Something I’d like to try.
Love begonias in my garden, and these are beautiful! I’m enjoying this series and how you create your layouts.??
I loved your art journal layout using the Build a Flower Begonias. So beautiful! Thank you for sharing your techniques with us.
Beautiful art journal page! Love the gorgeous Begonias.
Thanks so much for sharing.
Because of your disc-bound flower journal, I was inspired to purchase the punch and discs to create an art journal so that I could add pages as I painted them. Thank you and I’m having fun with it. I love this Begonia set from Altenew and it was perfect for your beautiful page,
Love this creative project with the pretty bloom!

I am so glad you are continuing with your Build a Flower Art Journal. I just love watching your videos when you are creating the flowers! I just auto enrolled for the Build a Flower monthly set because I really love the Begonia. Thank you for your inspiration!
This is beautiful, I love all your projects though LOL!! Thanks for sharing
GORGEOUS JOURNAL PAGE. THE FLOWER IS PERFECT FOR THE PROJECT. THANKS FOR SHARING.
Thanks Vicky…I always enjoy your work, but usually hate art journaling…however I enjoyed the smaller size and you may have solved one of my problems. I love Bible journaling but hate when it comes through the back of the page, so your flower journal could become my Bible verse journal. Thanks again.
Beautiful page.
What a pretty project! I don’t do art journaling but I love the way it looks.
You are my favorite artist and so happy to see more art journals.
Fabulous journal page! I just might have to try to recreate this!
Vicky, this piece takes my breath away! No more words are needed. Thank you.
I love the vintage look of your page. The Begonia’s look beautiful.
Wow! The depth and dimension you achieved is incredible! Gorgeous!!
Very pretty! Thank you for the inspirational video.
Wonderful way to use the flower!
Vicky, your Begonia journal page is beautiful! I love watching your videos, lots of inspiration in these.
So excited to see that you are continuing the flower alphabet series. I love watching you create. You are such an amazing artist. This latest is fantastic.
It’s a;ways a treat to watch you design and complete your art journal pages, and today’s beautiful begonia was no exception, Vicki! Love the whole idea of your flower journal.
I too really love those begonias. WOW. Adding the Pitt pen to them made them really come alive. And the vintage look I always love. Between the flowers the “wood” and the burlap the page has a real earth feel to it … like being in a garden or outdoors. Amazing page! Thank you for the video. Some good tips to try!! I really appreciate all your videos, but I must admit the art journals are extra special.
Love your page Vicki!
I just finished watching the video, you are amazing Vicky! Thanks so much for the inspiration!

Beautiful mixed media! I LOVE your splatters and all the different elements!

Like all of your other creations, it’s simply beautiful. I do have a little more liking to this one because of the brown and blue colors you used. I also love the touch of burlap for texture. Your work is always stunning Vicky. ; )
What a beautiful page. All of the elements come together gorgeously, like the tree stump and the flowers and the splatters and the title. I love how you used the begonias and a begonia theme together.
Your flower journal always makes me smile, Vicky! I love the contrast of the rough elements with the delicate flowers.
