    Finally, a video on preparing a book for art journaling that doesn't require an hour of my time. Precise and helpful--and lovely. Thank you.

    I've done this too. ❤ typically i would choose a book that already has artwork and keep those as part of the journal too. This project was fun to watch thanks for sharing

    I love making altered books. I'm on about my 5th one. For some reason it's so freeing compared to a blank journal.

    Great tutorial. I just found some old books and didn't have a clue how to transform them into a journal. I want to share a fantastic glue I've found for thin papers, or any paper, really. - Elmers No-Wrinkle dual tip glue pen.The thin and wide tips work well for a variety of projects, and it's 'washable', so I can remove what sneaks out past the edges. Depending on the circumstance, I use a brayer, instead of a bone folder, to smooth out whatever I've glued. It's gentle enough for delicate paper. Thank you so much for your vlogs. I just found your channel and am binge watching 😳

    Ubuntu we are safe in our little town of Hoedspruit I’m sure you must be shocked to see what went on in South Africa over the last few days. Our old home town was Amanzimtoti which was hit hard. They are still battling to get supplies. So sad 😞
