I haven’t begun doing this yet…but you have inspired me to give it a go…I love to “play” with it all..I am almost 80 and have just got into card making with dies, stencils, etc…enjoy it so much..thanks
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 am inspired! I really like your method of tearing out every other page and gluing the three together. I have a book just waiting to be altered ! I’m going to try your method.... thanks for sharing this.❤️
I absolutely love this and have been thinking about doing an art journal myself soon. I made a blank of of all sorts of media pages and art pics and saying for someone earlier this year. I will have to watch the rest of this journal you made now. TYSVMFS ☺♥
Such an inspiration to try making an art journal. After 8 months of being a journal maker, it’s time to venture into a new area. You are such a great teacher with a gentle voice and spirit. Blessings from Betty in Ohio.
I am going to use your idea to post out to my distant placed family, journal letters in book form of 15 pages…love it love it..they will never throw my work of art letters out that I send now. Thank you so much I cant wait to get started…
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 😳
I’ve never made an art journal and the tips you gave are helpful. I make lots of journals & this will hopefully help me also to step out my comfort zone and have fun. Love your first page. Thanks for sharing 🥳💗
I have never made an art journal, but the art journal is next on the list for the craft group that I am in. Thank you so much for sharing this information. 🤗
Shana this is exactly what I needed to see today! I just got some old encyclopedias that are minis & wanted to start an art journal (which I haven’t done successfully yet 🙄 ).
Thank you very much for this very very helpful video. I'm wanting to start an art journal and I just did not know where to begin. But this is an excellent idea so I will see if I have a book that fits the parameters
Thanks so much for sharing how you prepare an old book. Nowadays i make my own journals, but i have a planner with a spine where i make some art journaling and i think it needs some arrangements. I love the fist page! 💙
Thanks for sharing. I thought I wanted to make junk journals, but I seem to be leaning towards art journals more. This was a very good introduction to setting one up. I will look into your list of videos for more on art journaling now. TY again.
You have a different approach to a used book. I like it. Absolutely inspired! I like the idea of starting a smaller book. Love your choices of font and that stencil. I don't have any stencils at all. They are second to none around this neck of the woods. Happy Sunday to you and many thanks. Danuta, ca
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.
Love this so much. I'm about to start my Art Journal 🥰

Love this video, I needed it to repurpose old books instead buying brand new journals. Thanks
I love the gentle way you work. It always leads me off on a tangent, trying new ways and stepping out of my comfort zone. Thank you.👍♥️
Thank you so much 🦋
This looks like so much fun. I’m feeling like I need to make one.
💖
Gorgeous pages.
I love making altered books. I'm on about my 5th one. For some reason it's so freeing compared to a blank journal.
💖
Thank you for sharing. You make me want to run to my art room and get started, the sign of a great teacher!
Awww thank you for your lovely comment 💖
I am inspired! I really like your method of tearing out every other page and gluing the three together. I have a book just waiting to be altered ! I’m going to try your method.... thanks for sharing this.❤️
Thank you, I just overbought books!
I can smell these old ones from here!
Brilliant idea 💡 thanks for your opinions
Thanks for sharing your process for creating the book. The first page is fabulous. The way the ink runs into the stencil is awesome.
I absolutely love this and have been thinking about doing an art journal myself soon. I made a blank of of all sorts of media pages and art pics and saying for someone earlier this year. I will have to watch the rest of this journal you made now. TYSVMFS ☺♥
