Hello Loves...it is time for step 2: Page Prep. This is where it gets fun-er!
I show you a few of my base layering techniques in this video. The most important part about this step is to remember that this is just the bottom layer...feel free to have a blast adding color and interest.
enjoy!

Dont be afraid of black. Its hard to undo but easy to cover. It picks up pigment well. I use it as a base alot.

I am prepping my new alter book pages by spraying them with 2 colours in one spritzer I have coffee concentrate and in the other I have pink food colour with water. I love this combo on the pages and I did the cover also the same.

I have been doing experiments with both. Crinkling the paper makes a fabulous marble affect. Be careful with the coffee. It can make your paper weak. Add a little baking soda to protect the ph of the paper.

This was so fun to watch you putting color on your pages! I also use the cheap washable tempera paint that you can get at walmart for like $2 in the kid's craft section, (the sargent art brand), it is translucent and provide a great first layer. Happy crafting!

Thanks inspiration for my next journal. I love chalk pastels. Breaking the blank pages with color makes your journal so much easier to use , it becomes even more yours, and gives you a starting point. You should try the smoosh and drag technique when you use the water solubles. Slap the pages down and drag them through the product.

Great idea! I'm gonna do it, for sure! xoxo- gina

Great ideas, Gina! So, if the pastels are the background, I can't WAIT to see what you do next! Do you have a tip so the pages don't wrinkle?

I have a question for ya. One of the books I rescued. (When I started rescuing book from trash bins) did not have the same amount of signatures in it. Which threw me off. I lost track and ruined it. I kept it. But, it's very wonkified lol. My question is, usually most books have same amount of pages in each signature right? Please correct me if I'm wrong🤓🎨 Thank you🌷❣

@stellarjstudios 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Jenn! That is a great question and I do not know the answer to it. I would assume that the signatures all have the same number of pages but perhaps really old, or lesser-quality ones do not. xoxo- gina
