Making Another Altered Book For ME! Craft Along with Me and Make One for Yourself

[@RuthieAubs]

These books are so creative!! I looked through the few books I have but they won't work so going to my local Savers and see if I can find an old book!! Anxious to make my own!! TFS!! PS: Never worry about long videos, I could listen and watch you all day!! 🥰

[@Karin-]

Don't be anxious, they are easy to do and most importantly, remember it's only paper 😊

[@RuthieAubs]

@@Karin- I didn't mean anxious that I can't do it, I'm anxious to start!! I've been making journals for a long time!!😊

[@Karin-]

@@RuthieAubs You're half way there then - no need to be anxious to start, again, it's only paper and I bet it turns out great 😁

[@EJPARSONSUK]

Ditto. I could watch all day. I'd love to watch the process from start to finish, and that goes for all your journals. Oh, and I'd have snapped up that book by now, haha 😁🤗

You're an inspiration! I had strayed from journal making lately but this is pulling me back in. Now I need to find a book to use.

[@GiKerr]

Tank you so much Paulette, Hugs GI x

[@LindaM27]

Great video. Thank you for explaining the difference in the two spines. I was having a terrible time pulling out the pages of mine. I stopped after a few pages. I find that my book spine does have the many signatures. Now, thanks to your explaining they are coming out great. Thanks so much!!

[@ilakaiser3778]

Brilliant!

[@debraalexander9069]

Hi I would like to introduce myself, I'm Debra from the US. I just love your work on the altered books. Can you tell me what you do if the binding is tight and you cannot get the papers out properly?

[@GiKerr]

@@debraalexander9069 Hi Debra, Thank you so much. If it is the first time you are doing an altered book i would suggest finding a book which has easier pages to pull out. But if you want to stick with this book! The pages will get loser once you have pull some pages out. It will get easier. Hope that helps. Hugs Gi x

[@debraalexander9069]

@@GiKerr Thank You, yes a big help!

[@godschild1305]

I hope you show us more of your work on this. I am confused with its purpose. Please and thank you.😊

I made mine last time with you . gessoed some pages . also made pockets and put the rose papers you had for freebies in it. so cute love it. Today in Michigan USA> shipping is awful price.

[@pamelakallen9630]

How many papers do you want to have in the book that you are working on . Does it matter what kind of book do you work with. Thank you.
