Hi Gayle, I made one of these altered books, and I followed your original tutorial. My friends just raved about it. I took it to the limits with collage, distress crayons, alcohol inks, etc. But it was your teaching me the nuts and bolts of "how to" that made my efforts a success. Mucho, mucho amor!

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with you explaining how to create this again. It’s so kind of you to help out the newer viewers. This is the third/fourth time I’ve seen you explain how to prepare an altered book. I’ve enjoyed every video! Going to love watching this one being created! Hugs! 😘💜💜🤗
