Wiw what a selection! Second hand is good I think. Recycling 👍 the last on was my favourite at least on a fairly quick flick though. Thanks for that i🥰
Thanks Toni, the last one is really lovely!
Thank you. Great book recommendations. I already have Gerald Brommer's book and IMO it's one of the best books on collage technique out there! The projects are given in a step by step manner which is easy to follow. 🙏🏼💕
Totally agree, I have bought it, given it away a number of times over the years! 💗💗
I love seeing what inspires you- they are definitely lovely books of inspiration!! Thanks for sharing Kari!
Thanks Lisa, they are great books and it was fun to flip through them again, I hadn't looked at them for a while. They are now beside my bed for a bit of night-time reading!
Thank you Kari for sharing this 🙏
Thank you! 💗💗
Totally enjoyed !! Inspiring ! 🎨❤️
Thanks so much 😊💗
I love that you showed everyone these books, great inspiration. I totally enjoyed that and like the fact that you have your favorite Inspirations also.
Thanks Deedee, I think it helps to see what a book is really like before buying it, these ones are very much my favourites! 😁💗
These are totally gorgeous.
Thank you, they really are great books full of lots of inspiration! 💕
Awesome seeing your library for your Journals, I'v been looking into other artists as well for my art, being dazzled by some, and then thinking how can I take the inspiration and make it my own, that is not duplicate their work but take the elements and redefine them in a way to make my own work better. Do you do the same? Find those you adore and then find your own interpretation? That is aside from some principles that are just that, known elements.
Thanks Becca, yes I tend to take a bit from here and there, doing my own thing!
Thankyou for showing us the books, it's so much easier to decide what to buy when you can see a flick through.
You are so welcome Sylvia, I hope you manage to get some of the ones that took your fancy!
Great video - love book flip throughs and recommendations! Have most of them apart from the last one. How exciting to have your work in a published book!
Thanks so much Leanne, there are some fabulous books out there, but these are my favourites! 😊💕
Wow Kari, tons of inspiration in those books 💖💖 The last one is so so gorgeous, it's great that there's a piece of yours inside! If i find a book similar to yours i will get it for sure, thanks for showing them!
Thanks Ana, the books are great, I enjoyed having another flip through them again, definitely get some of these books if you can! :) x
Thank you so much Kari, that’s really really helpful and useful too. I really really love ❤️ looking at these books 📚 with you. Thank you so much for sharing this with us all. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Thanks Mags, I hope you treat yourself to one or two that you don't already have. Keep safe and stay well, too! X
Thanks for this! I have some of them, but I was particularly intrigued by the Dan Eldon book. I will definitely look for that one. Thanks again!😊
Thank you very much Sheila, I hope you can locate a copy of Dan's book, it really is very interesting! 💗😊💗
@@KariGibsonArt I'm definitely going to keep an eye out. 😊
Oh wow great books and your page in that last book... That's cool... Your published too 😁😁😁😎💖😂
Thanks Elaine, they are lovely books and it was rather nice to go down memory lane with some of the older ones. 💕💕
Thanks so much for such a detailed look at these books! I don’t have any of them, so they were great to see. Thanks Kari!
You are welcome Cheryl, I hope you treat yourself!
Great books to choose from. Thank you.
Thanks Karen, they are great for inspiration! 💗
Loved seeing your favs. I've read most of those and agree that they are packed with inspiration. Something I've been doing for years now is keeping a notebook of techniques and ideas. When I read a book or magazine on art journaling and see something interesting I jot it down in my notebook. Later I flip through the notebook for ideas to try in my own journal. I can't recommend it enough. I have more ideas than I think I could ever try. TYFS your books. Be well.
Thanks Phinny, that is a fabulous idea, I will try that! 💕💕
That is quite an interesting selection. To be fair, I have never come across a book especially dedicated to art journaling and I like to browse the arts and crafts aisled at bookstores... I loved this kind of video from you Kari 🌻
Thanks Yana, yes not enough bricks and mortar book stores stock them. I got most of mine online. They are great for sparking ideas, I live this selection.
Great! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Annie!
Thank you for sharing these, they are so wonderful. Loving your videos. 🥰
Thank you, Maria, I am glad you are enjoying the videos, these books are great for ideas if you get stuck or just need some new inspiration. 💗

Absolutely, after watching this I managed to find some used 2nd hand on Amazon! I can't wait to flip through them and get inspired. Thank you so much 🌷
@@mariacheung647 Yay, that is what I prefer to do, Maria, I am glad you managed to get some! 💗
I have all of those bar two! All very inspirational! I shall be having a good look through Dan Eldon's when I next visit, that's been on my wishlist for a while. :)
Oh yes, of course you can borrow Dan's book, I could bring it with me in June if I remember. I really enjoyed having a look through these books again, they had been a bit neglected lately. I have put them beside my bed for another look-through. 💕
You've sure got a treasure trove their Kari, what lovely books. I've always had books in my life right from being a child, I love the smell, the feel - or is that just me lol. Tfs xo
I love books so much, too, Elizabeth. I had to part with many when I moved from Scotland to here, but I kept my art books. XOXO
Quite a collection, Kari. I have the Complete Decorated Journal. Some others I love are Somerset Studio magazine and the Artist Cafe.
I love Somerset Studio magazines. Stampington also do an Art Journal magazine too. I haven't seen Artist Cafe, but I will look out for it now. X
Thanks for the reference books....😻
You are so welcome, they are great for inspiration! 💕
Thanks so much for sharing.
You are so welcome and thanks for watching! 💕💕
The last one is my favourite - I was getting ready to suggest it in the comments :D
Thanks Hazel, it is a lovely one!
Thanks for sharing this! I have just bought the last one from eBay as I found that particularly interesting! 📖📚📙📓
Wow, that's great, Fiona, it's a lovely book!
Ohhhh love the scribbles... going to have to remember that style for the next prompt with a scribble. The Decorated Page really like that one. P has quite the collection... but one I just added to it was the Art of the Fold. And what you are a published artist, that is fantastic.
I know - those scribbles are gorgeous, I might have to fix that 🎲 next time!
@@KariGibsonArt 😂 Your prompts your rules! Maybe just have one round of all your choice... then maybe even those of us participating have a choice round 🤩✨
You have just reminded me, I have a few of these books in storage!!
Bit off topic, but have you still got the ATC’s on homelessness you collaborated on as part of your degree?
I was telling someone about them a couple of days ago. It’s weird when random conversations can transport you back, how long ago was that? Your final year? Xxx🥰😍
Just looking at the books took me back, too. I think I do still have the homeless project ATCs up in the attic probably! X
New subscriber - I have many of these beautiful books ❤️🙏💕🥰
Thank you Marmie, it is lovely to have you here with me - and yes, those books are great! 😁💗
Hi Kari, I know this is late in the day, but that's You Tube sometimes isn't it? Just want to say I have thoroughly enjoyed your review of those inspirational books. You are great to listen to and I hope to purchase at least a couple of the books and give things a go! Thank you. X.
Yes, Pauline, it certainly is. The books are great, you will enjoy any that you get! 😀💗
Always fascinating where inspiration presents itself.
Oh, it is everywhere, Kate!
@@KariGibsonArt ❤️
THANK YOU!
You are welcome, Linda - I hope you can buy some of these books, I think they are very helpful! 💗💗
I've already ordered two--one comes today!
