Color Themed Glue Book Episode 001

Join me as I create a color themed scavenger hunt collection glue book collage journal for myself! I recently was introduced to this idea and I am in love! I spend some time in this video getting things set up! I hope you will join me in this adventure in collecting all sorts of wonderful images to add to my book ♥
I first saw this from ‪@relaxcutglue‬

I like your paper edges. I too, watch Nicole, Relax, Cut, Glue and I have more than 4 projects going from watching her, and others, now you included. I am ready to create. Thank you.

Thank you! Now I just need to create in them all!! I need more time i each day!

[@valerieb8006]

Your way of taping the pages together is great! Also like the way you "measure and cut" the background paper! I also have many projects going at one time. This is one i believe i will add to the list!

Thanks for watching! ♥ I hope you enjoy making this!

This is lots of fun. I like it. I also watched 2 commercials. So that was cool as well.

What a great idea❤

[@theresaakin2284]

Just ran across your video and courtesy tip, When I use tape of any kind, I fold the ends back on themselves. Makes easy like a tab to use the next time.

[@karenbuhrdesigns]

I do that for packing tape but did not think of doing it on washi tape... I have to start! ♥ Thanks for the tip! ♥

I stopped in sort of because of the compo book videos. I love working with these books but I really don't like the lines for writing behind whatever I am working on. I just can't do the thing where you completely cover the page with scraps or whatever other tricks you might have heard. Regardless, mine get really huge! I noticed a dotted composition book and the dots just disappear on the page/spread. (They are very small/very light gray dot grids) You can only get them around the time school is getting back into session. They are $1 each which is a little higher priced but you can use them for so many things....including all types of journals and daily type books even kids journals or a 'craft with me video.. The book ends up being super thick/wide so I tend to keep making other journals for specific things like background ideas, to do lists, glue books, practice new ideas, place to put paint you would otherwise rinse away. The pages do pretty well being torn out as needed, a well decorated to do list...anything paper you might think of. The pages are a little thicker than the lined ones. They are at Walmart. Some of my covered fronts have washi tape on the edges inside the journal but also washi tape diagonally on the front an back--like sort of a sampler of washi tapes. For better adherence, run a rough piece of sand paper on it or even an acrylic nail file it to help keep the paint and glued things you want to stick well. I love your ideas and just subscribed...nice to see people from the beginning of the journey. Sorry this was so long! Best of luck to you...see you in the next video!

I love that you’re using the composition books for so many projects! ♥ I'll have to watch for the dot grid ones during back to school time!
