Thank you so much for your lovely comment... there will be some book-flip throughs soon!

@@w0rdsandp1ctures I cannot wait to see them. I look forward to getting to watch and learn as you show the completion of this journal page. 😊

That's such wonderful feedback to read, thank you. I'm delighted you're enjoying the videos, and I hope you'll be inspired to have some minutes of fun of your own very soon! Thanks so much for your company on this creative journey.

So happy that you are enjoying the videos... thank you so much for your lovely comment. There's already a flip through of this altered book in the Books, Books, Books series (and there will be another coming soon with me talking in detail about each page spread in it) - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ir-hf7xi0rmoo30.html There's also a crackle video, if you haven't seen that yet: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r8p0hdlllbGvhHU.html and coming some time next month, I'm planning a Craft Supplies Deep Dive into various kinds of crackle medium, so maybe there will be some help and/or alternatives in that episode for you to try. Crackle can be affected by temperature and humidity, so that might be something causing your problems. Or if it's quite old paste and has dried out a bit, that will definitely impact on the crackle you get (or don't get). Thank you so much for watching and commenting.

I'll be sure to turn the camera back on when I have some time to continue with these pages... and there will be some book-flipping coming soon. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment.

That's such a lovely comment, thank you. Happy you found your way here.

What a lovely comment, thank you so much! Yes, there will be some book flip-throughs coming soon, and this one will definitely be included.

Great to know, thank you - book-flipping coming soon!

I really just think of it as an art journal, more than an altered book... the cover is certainly altered, mind you! Hope you'll have fun playing, one page at a time. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

@@w0rdsandp1ctures ❤️❤️❤️

What a lovely comment. That's exactly the intention of the Few Minutes of Fun - nothing complicated, just some easy ways to make the most of whatever time you have at the craft table. Now I just need to work out what comes next on this page spread... I'll be sure to turn the camera on when I do! Crackle and book-flipping will be coming soon... Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

Thank you very much - happy you like them. Book-flipping coming soon!

Happy to hear that, thank you!

My new series Books, Books, Books has just started, flipping through art journals, handmade and altered books... so you'll have plenty more books videos coming your way over the next weeks and months to binge on!! Thanks so much for taking the time to comment as you are bingeing. It really makes a difference to the channel, but it's also a real delight for me to engage with whoever is watching.

Ahhh, thanks, Lynn - always great to hear from you!

That's so nice to hear - thank you very much for watching and commenting.

Thank you - happy you enjoyed it.

Great, thank you - more books coming soon!

Thank you so much - there will be some book-flipping coming soon!

Happy to hear you enjoyed the start of this page... the next steps are already available in one of the A Few Minutes of Fun episodes. And there's a flip through of the rest of what's in this art journal, as well as many other book-based projects to see in the Books Books Books playlist. Thank you so much for watching and commenting.

Great to know, thank you. Book-flipping coming soon!

The Books, Books, Books series will be starting this coming Wednesday... there's already a short introduction to give you a taster if you check the channel. So happy you enjoyed this one, thank you for letting me know!

That's so kind of you... book-flipping videos are coming very soon! Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

That's lovely, thank you. And good to know... crackle and books, some of my favourite things, coming soon!

Oh, thank you so much for that lovely comment - it's put a big smile on my face! Book-flipping will be coming soon. Happy Sunday to you.

Great, thank you - more books on the way soon!

Thank you so much... definitely some book-flipping to come, and I'm sure there will be more journalling pages too. Quite apart from anything else, I need to find out where this page spread is going next!

That's lovely to hear, thanks so much for letting me know.

Great to know, thank you. Book-flipping coming soon!

I'll definitely turn the camera on when I continue these pages... need to find out where they're headed next!! Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

So happy you enjoyed this - and I hope the same is true if you're watching more. I've only recently started adding content here regularly, so there's plenty more to come. And yes, book-flipping coming soon! Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

Great to know, thank you!

That's great to hear, and exactly what I hoped the Few Minutes of Fun series would offer. Thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughtful feedback.

Great, thanks so much for letting me know... book-flipping coming soon!

That's lovely to hear, thank you so much.

Great to know... more books coming soon!

Thank you... they were just what I was in the mood for that day!

That's great feedback, thanks so much. Definitely some books and more journalling to come soon - so happy to hear you are finding inspiration and knowledge here.

That's lovely to know - thank you so much for your company on this creative journey.

Nice idea... though I do rather like the chunky look!! Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

I’ve done the same with the pre- tearing out of about 1/3 to half the book as I find by the time you add pockets and journaling cards etc it gets way too chunky. Love your ideas. ❤️💕

@@judycoldicott8233 Yes, if you're adding pockets etc, you'd need to do that! I'm not so much for the pockets and journalling cards look... I like the rusty crusty mixed media textures - and the chunky pages make me happy. It becomes so tactile as an object (and un-booklike!).

It looks great alright. Off to do some grunging now….😂❤

Very happy you're enjoying the fun. Thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to comment.

Oh, that's lovely to hear... hope you have a great time playing.

Excellent - books coming soon! Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

What a lovely comment, thank you. Definitely some more books and journalling coming soon.

Happy you enjoyed it, Etsuko... now to work out what comes next!!

Thank you... next step is to finish the pages!

That's great to know - thanks for watching and commenting.

Thank you - that made me smile!

Brilliant... that's the perfect response - have fun playing!

Happy you like them... more books coming soon!

Very happy that you enjoyed it. An old book gives you lots of character before you've even done anything, and there's no need to worry about "spoiling" an expensive journal. Hope you have fun playing with some of the ideas here... and yes, more books will be coming soon. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

Great to know... book-flipping coming soon!

Great - thanks so much for taking the time to let me know!

Great, thanks so much for taking the time to let me know.

Thank you - yes, I'd seen Tim Holtz do it, but it's never been necessary in the damp climates I've lived in before!! Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

Thank you! I'm wondering where this spread will go next... I guess that'll be another few minutes of fun to come!!

Thank you so much... now to work out what's going to happen next!

That made me laugh, thank you. There's a Barbara Taylor Bradford fan elsewhere in the comments who might disagree... but it's a bit late for me to read this copy now to find out!! I'll be sure to switch the camera on when I carry on with this page - no idea where it's going yet, really. And yes, there will be more books coming soon. Thanks so much for your company on the journey.

Very happy you found your way here... I hope you enjoy whatever else you watch. I only recently started adding videos regularly here on YT, so there's plenty more to come... including book-flipping - on its way soon! Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment.

That's great... more books coming soon!

Thank you so much... more books and journalling coming soon.

Happy you enjoyed it - thank you for taking the time to let me know.

Happy you like it... now to figure out what comes next!

Great to know - more books coming soon! I hope somewhere in there will be some inspiration for your altered book.

That's great... coming soon. Thanks for letting me know.

I will certainly turn the camera on when I come to the next stages of this page... I don't know what those are yet, though! The planned book series is on its way soon, flipping through and looking at past book-based creations and art journal pages, so I hope you'll enjoy those. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

Thank you... now to work out what's going to happen next!

Excellent... more books coming soon!

Probably my favourite journal, even though I've got some expensive ready-made ones! Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thank you so much for your lovely, thoughtful comment. I'm so happy you're enjoying the videos here. I'll be sure to switch the camera on when I continue with these pages... no idea where they're headed, really, but that's the fun of it. Book-flipping will be coming soon!

Great to know, thank you!

Thank you so much - book flip-throughs coming soon. Hope you have fun with the grunge paste once you track it down!
