Walking away for a while, texting a picture of the current state of my project to a friend for fresh ideas, or searching thru ideas I’ve pinned or saved all help.

You do make seem easy; but it isn't, your the best. But your the one who walks us through each step in your humble way. You don't miss a step; how nice to have on KZbin. Warm wishes Barbara.

Thanks for another inspiring video. I never would have considered using book pages as the substrate for the journal cover. I plan on trying this some time. Likewise stitching the piece for the closure is something I definitely will be doing. I love the final product. I appreciate your reminder to work in "baby steps". As I am new to this style, I am definitely taking your suggestion to heart. I'm striving for a happy medium point between art journal ing and junk journaling as I work out my style. Your videos are helpful. Thank you.

Beautiful cover, Barbara!! I’m so surprised you didn’t add gold wax to the texture paste in the 4 corners 😂. You are so talented and brave. Love how you are willing to forge ahead to create fun layers! Hugs, Grenae

This is a great video! I love how you over-dubbed yourself talking. It makes for a better video and didn’t slow down the process.

I love the layers on your cover. You're better with the glue gun than I am. I always end up with glue strings everywhere. Tfs.

Thank you! I have the same problem with my small glue gun and I’m starting to think it depends on the glue gun. I just bought a new one (haul video coming up 😃) and it doesn’t seem to be doing that.

I like to add acrylic paint to my gesso when doing backgrounds. Burnt Sienna or Raw Sienna are my two favorite pigments to use. I've also used drops of acrylic ink to color my gesso. That way you are not left with such a stark white, and it gets the page/cover/whatever started in the right direction.

So beautiful!! I definitely understand when you said you were not happy with the cover and had to keep coming back & adding to it. I was working on a slow stitch challenge tag and I had to keep coming back to it because I until I was finally happy with it. Everything you added was just right💕🐬

How Barbara? ...just HOW??? How do you do this? This is gorgeous and each time you were "done" I was amazed. You just know, y' know? When I was first discovering the JJ world there was one statement - I have no idea who said it - but it was, "When your cover (or tag or pocket... whatever...) is finished, add one more thing and THEN its finished. It was then I felt like I'd found my long list family. Again, this is gorgeous AND inspiring. TYFS, MK 💗🌞🌵 and MUAH back.

It’s my first time here and I’m sooo happy to have found your channel 😊 I absolutely love the way you craft journals and find that you have the answers to the ideas I’m having but am struggling to figure out how to execute properly. I have been thinking about how to make a journal cover for the past few days for my set of 6 travel journals that I plan to use to document my journey and the information I receive from The Apothecary at Home subscription box. The boxes that everything ships in are perfect! Thanks so much for sharing 🌱💐💕

Lovely cover. I felt the indecisions and the frustration of trying to find the right layout. I enjoyed watching the process.
