    Morning Barbara, I really enjoyed the information of the Art Deco Period, as I never realized that Austria played such a big part in the movement. The cover and journalling cards are beautiful and i am excited to see how you finish off this beautiful book. Thank you for all your inspiration, (and the hard work, it must take), the videos are a real treat each time we watch. Blessings to you and yours. Diana Fox

Dein Altered Book gefällt mir total gut, es ist ein richtiges Schmuckstück! 😍 Ich liebe es dir zuzusehen, wie du mit so viel Leidenschaft collagierst...🤩 Bei dir klappt das stundenlang..und ich bin sonst so ungeduldig! 😂 Deine Art ist so herrlich ausgeglichen und deine Stimme ist so angenehm...👍

    Hi Barbara, I have enjoyed watching your process. You always make everything look so easy. Today's color combinations are beautiful. I have been watching Maud's channel since your collaboration. Not sure if you have had time to visit, but thought you might like to see her Journal with a Girl and Kitty on the cover...she added mini lights and Framed the cover with other things, and then she added a water color/drawing booklet above the light battery matchbox and signature on the other side. It turned out just lovely. Your ladies are SO talented!! Thank you for sharing. Debbie S.

    Hello Barbara, what fun to see this process and in Art Nouveau! Your cover turned out gorgeous! I studied Art Nouveau in Art History in college and my first fave was William Morris, second runner up Klimt.
    When I use gesso to journal over I sand with extra fine sand paper and it makes a lovely smooth page to write over.
    Thanks again.

    I have always loved this style of art and I am saddened that there is little representation of it In my home, Canada. There is a group of artists that I do love here known as the, The Group of Seven”, that I enjoy and you might as well. It is very stylized and and beautiful as well and often has a natural theme. The group had visiting artists, one from BC where I am. Her name was Emily Carr.

    love this series. I have been following along but my pages are loose not in a book as I am making a journal. Great inspiration!

    totally love your entire book. What about adding some of that lovely copper paste to the edges of the book cover? blend it softly....wouldn't that be the cat's meow???

    That stiff bristled brush doesn’t allow you to lightly blend in your your gesso. Try thinning it and sponging it on, or use a soft brush.

    Before adding the elements to the covers, it may have been nice to see some splatters.
