    So many wonderful things to love- those textured backgrounds are delightful! I also loved the incorporated dried flowers among the pages with your collage. Even the warm colored pages were so beautiful and soothing. A wonderful walk through your beautiful arty altered book! Thank you

      Yes, it's really clear when autumn hits, isn't it, and all those warm rusts and oranges start coming! So happy you enjoyed the flip through. Thank you for sharing such a lovely, thoughtful comment.

      Thank you for that amazing comment - I read it with a huge smile on my face!
      Yes, it's probably my favourite journal that I've got on the go at the moment, and the closest to being full - I shall be sorry when there's no more space to play in there. Ah well, I'll just have to start another altered book journal when that happens...
      Thank you for all your lovely coments today.

    Such a stunning book Alison. I found myself pausing the video on almost every page so I could take in every single little detail. You are so, so inspiring. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us. Xx

      @w0rdsandp1ctures  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm so happy to hear that - it's definitely one of my happiest places to play, this book... I shall be slightly sad once it's full! Thanks so much for watching and for your lovely comment.

      ✨ @w0rdsandp1ctures I found myself doing exactly the same, having to pause and zoom to see the beauty within each page, so many beautiful details everywhere😊😊 You are so very talented 🤗✨

      @w0rdsandp1ctures  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @sheilastyrebriere @PaperInspirationsAU In a few weeks time there will be a longer flip through of this book, with me talking in more detail about what's involved in each page, so you'll get another chance to zoom in then! Thank you both for your support and lovely comments here on the channel.

    Stunning, can't wait to see you go over the cover in more detail, how you doi the rust like look.

    • @w0rdsandp1ctures
      @w0rdsandp1ctures  18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Well, you can find that rusty look in a tag video - hang on, I'll find the link for you... th-cam.com/video/ydDRv40KKTA/w-d-xo.html It may not be exactly the same ingredients, as I tend to experiment and play differently each time I get rusty. I do also talk about it in more detail in the other flip through version with commentary - th-cam.com/video/URbc-Oo7k00/w-d-xo.html
      I hope that's of some help to you for now. Thank you so much for watching and commenting.

    Your techniques are amazing and the colours you use or create are just wonderful. The tag with the crackle flowers is just beautiful and then you do the flowers again on the next page and they look so ethereal. And like others have said the cover is amazing with those texture details. You have opened up how to use of all my Tim Holtz mediums. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous book.

    • @w0rdsandp1ctures
      @w0rdsandp1ctures  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      So happy you like it all. I'm very fond of those crackle blossoms too - and there were months in between those two things happening. I had made the tag ages before I thought of including it in a journal page! So happy to hear that these videos are inspiring you to play around with your Tim Holtz mediums... there is so much joy to be had with them. Thanks so much for watching and for your lovely comment.

      Happy you enjoyed it... if you haven't got any on your shelves already, charity shops very often have them to give away. Bizarrely, they often pulp the older hardback books - they're definitely missing a trick not tapping into the craft market!!

      @w0rdsandp1ctures  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I don't, I'm afraid... I made this years before I started any filming. It's painted Tim Holtz tissue paper, and there will be some videos with painting of tissue paper (in fact, there already is one showing a large journalling page, where I'm painting my own Printed Tissue botanicals with watercolours th-cam.com/video/AMisrNYVfRo/w-d-xo.html if you're interested), and at some point I will probably get to some rusty textures too, but possibly not on a book cover.

    Just beautiful. I can't decide what I like best an original book cover, with secret art journal inside or your lovely altered cover.
    I was also wondering if you think out your book before altering it? Or is this something you'll discuss in depth later on?

      Thin out

    • @w0rdsandp1ctures
      @w0rdsandp1ctures  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Glad you corrected think to thin... I was about to assure you there's no planning ahead!
      I don't tend to thin out, no - I like the crazily chunky look you end up with, and how that stands up on a shelf as a sculptural object. At the point when I can't open it to work in any longer, that's when I'll know it's full! I do glue several pages together, to get a firmer working surface. You can see that in the Few Minutes of Fun episode where I'm working on the background for the next page in this book - here if you haven't seen it th-cam.com/video/KnJv3HypkX8/w-d-xo.html (and the collaging over the top is coming up in about ten days' time too).
      I have other hardback book journals where I haven't altered the cover at all so, as you say, it's a complete surprise when there's something inside. (In fact, it's not unknown for me to take a book off the shelf in the studio to tear some pages out to use in a project and discover that actually it's got art journalling inside!).
      Happy you enjoyed the video, and thank you so much for your lovely, thoughtful comment.

    Hello Alison! LOVELY!!! Seeing your flip through of this art journal was so enjoyable! I loved how you allowed time for my eye to scan the whole page spread to see the overview of its contents before then moving the book around to allow my eye to wander around the page with a magnifying glass of sorts to take in all the beautiful details! Thanks for taking your time & energy to share your creativity and inspiration! Have a wonderful day!!! 🙂
    PS I am curious about how you do ‘rust’ as an accent on your pages as well as on your metal pieces (wire, nails, etc. - or are they already rusty?)

    • @w0rdsandp1ctures
      @w0rdsandp1ctures  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you so much, as always, Sue, for a wonderful comment - such a pleasure to read. And thanks for the feedback on the camera movement - I wanted to get the page as a whole as well as the close-ups, as you say, but was a bit worried people might end up feeling seasick with all the moving around!!
      It's many different rusting techniques picked up over the years - some with paint, some with ink, some with texture pastes, some with a combination of all those things. I'm sure one or two will come up in A Few Minutes of Fun some time, but I'm also thinking of creating an actual class looking at some of the ways I do it.
      But the rusty wire mostly comes ready-rusted, except I do now have lots that held up my sugar snap peas in the garden last year and is now ready for playing with in the craft room. PaperArtsy Rusting Powder is a marvellous thing that I use a lot... shop.paperartsy.co.uk/rusting-powder-3322-p.asp - and that bottle will last you ages and rust lots of stuff. Hope that helps for now.

      Yes indeed, and yes I do... there's a whole video about exactly that in this book right here: th-cam.com/video/KnJv3HypkX8/w-d-xo.html and obviously I'll also talk about it in the narrated flipthrough in a few weeks' time.

    What a beautiful book! Did you gesso the pages to start with? Do you just use one page or glue several pages together for extra strength? What is that frayed fabric you used? How did you do the cover?

    • @w0rdsandp1ctures
      @w0rdsandp1ctures  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      So happy you like it. There's going to be a video coming which talks through the pages in some detail, so that will answer many of those questions. That's coming up in a couple of weeks' time.
      But some of the questions are already answered in these videos in which I'm working on a background and the collaging of one of the pages in it:
      th-cam.com/video/KnJv3HypkX8/w-d-xo.html (background video)
      th-cam.com/video/IX8xtM9Ylo8/w-d-xo.html (collage video)
      And the cover is basically a version of the rusty crackle tags and tissue paper... It's Tim Holtz Collage Paper, with rusty texture created similarly to the rust texture on these tags (but with slightly different ingredients... which will be turning up in another rusty recipe some time for A Few Minutes of Fun). You can see the rusty tags in these videos, though I think you may already have seen them? Though for the book I added the tissue paper first and then rusted over the top...
      th-cam.com/video/ydDRv40KKTA/w-d-xo.html (rusty texture)
      th-cam.com/video/5mXswUtDO3I/w-d-xo.html (tissue paper added)

      Sorry about that - I wanted to get the page as a whole as well as the close-ups, as you say, but was a bit worried people might end up feeling seasick with all the moving around. The commenter above you felt the opposite and really enjoyed it, so you win some and you lose some, I guess! I suppose you could try slowing the video down to watch, but maybe better to wait for the version in a few weeks' time where I talk through the pages in more detail... I've filmed that differently, so hopefully it won't do the same thing to you. Thank you for the thumbs up despite the seasickness - that's kind!
