I’m a little late but I’m so excited to try this! So different from the scrapbooking I used to do. I’m learning a lot and thankful for your tutorial! I got a book, removed my pages and moving on to making pockets.

Been watching. Never tried doing the JJ inside the book except for tearing it all out.

I like making my altered books using books that have signatures. My process: When I find a signature I paperclip the two pages. I will go through the entire book looking for all of the signatures. I can start where ever I want because all is equal now. I usually start at the first signature and I will glue the two pages that visually show the thread. These two pages get glued. I prefer this method because the signature is still anchored to the spine. Gluing the two pages together will get a firmness for what I will do such as make a pocket, etc. Now, I start tearing pages out because for every paper I add, a page needs to be taken out, or close to that for the book to close. So, I start at the glued pages. I tear out a page from the left and then to the right. If I've lined everything up right, the second page will just slip out. Now, I usually will tear four on each side knowing I will add bulk, so I'll have plenty of room. So I tear four on the left and four on the right. I go to the next signature and do the same thing. Now, you know how many pages are left in between the two signatures. With the leftover pages I will add a something to glue on for journaling. It's easy once you've found the signatures and consider how much bulk you'll add. When I'm looking at a candidate book, I open it up and find the signatures. If I can't find them and know it's a glued spine, I don't buy the book. Usually I can find a few when I'm out looking.

I love that you are doing this series! I embellished one page, but I have been waiting to decorate/embellish mine further so I can get some ideas from you! I started to say so I can take a page from your book. Lol 😂

Looks like a fun project. I will see if I can find the time to join you on this one. I know that I have some old Readers Digest books in the basement, won’t be able to go down and look for them until Monday. Dress rehearsal tonight and church and concert tomorrow. How often do you plan on having a new part of the series posted? I’ll see if I can catch up between postings.
