[@roxiebaker1158]

I really like these over the page ideas, as well. I like that they decorate the page whule still living lots of usable space. This is so simple, too. I'll definitely be using this idea. And I love Wendy! Thanks for sharing. ❤️

[@janicestewart8291]

Neat idea. It made me think of using a hidden paper clip cluster for the top as well. Thank you for showing us this.

[@BeAgainBooks]

Great idea Janice - that would look lovely! Thanks for stopping by.

[@elizabethrowe5960]

A year on, but new to me. I just put one in my journal, and it looks great except the paper on my (hidden) paper clip wants to roll up. Working on it. Thanks so much for the inspiration!

[@BeAgainBooks]

What a great journal ❣

[@BeAgainBooks]

Thank you so much Anton!

[@bigmommasandymoore2531]

I’m so happy you kept things right side up. I just have to even on making my little envelope. If the print is up side down on one side I have to cover it up. Might be in the OCD side of upside down. You always do such beautiful work. I look forward to each video.

[@BeAgainBooks]

I know a lot of people really hate upside down. It doesn’t actually bother me much at all. Maybe because I look at the text as graphic marks really, not paying attention to words. But I do know it bothers many. Thanks so much Sandy! I appreciate your time to watch.

That is very pretty! Love the colors. May I ask how you protected the front cover of this journal.

[@BeAgainBooks]

Thank you Chris! I used a nice coat of gel medium on the cover.

[@57cparks]

@@BeAgainBooks TY for that info. It looks very nice.

[@lindaspaperworks]

Kathleen, I always learn something when I watch your videos. Today it was one of those "Of course, why didn't I know that!" moments when you explained about the page being too thick to fold nicely if it was a double layer. Thank you so much for explaining things and helping me be a better crafter as a result. I love your double pocket over the page piece, and the spread that you show on the thumbnail just about makes me swoon. Those two-page papers together are so beautiful to me, and the flip enhances the look perfectly. The page papers remind me of old-fashioned wallpaper and days gone by. Just love it! You may have already thought of this, but just in case you haven't--I've seen Margreth of Sevenplaza use a corsage pin or hatpin to start the backing on those types of stickers that are hard to get apart. Thank you so much for all of your wonderful tutorials. I know I probably sound like I'm gushing, but I do appreciate you so much. Hope you've cooled off a bit; we haven't. We're in for a week of 100+ degree highs, but it's August and this is Texas. We should not be surprised. Just makes me thankful for air conditioning and watermelon. One more thing, I am really loving this journal you're making. I'm looking forward to the flip-through. Oops. I've written an essay again. lol.

[@BeAgainBooks]

Haha - I don’t mind your essays Linda! It makes me so glad to be able to teach something and I love that you’ve now taught me about the hat pin trick. I did not see that from Margaret - but it could be a game changer! I’m sorry you are so hot - you need to take a trip here to the mountains of New Mexico! The horribly hot weather seems to have eased just a bit, but it’s still hotter than normal and not cooling very well at night. What a trial.
