A tip for the Mod Podge, put a piece of sandwich/wax or parchment paper over the top and then put the lid on.

Thank you. I'll add that now : )

I have two copies of The Greatest Showman book tie in and just today decided I wanted to make one into my new memory making book with my Cinch that just sits in the cupboard gathering dust. I’ll keep some of the artwork in there but replace the rest with scrapbook paper and junk. You’ve inspired me to get started asap.

That's a great idea and a great use of a spare book : )

I love the Inkie quill Jamie journal, I have been using a 1980's craft book as a journal and am nearly finished it, I have put photos, quotes and really enjoyed getting painty and messy

I DID see the vlog with the mod podge and I've used that trick several times since. It doesn't always work right away, but eventually it works.

Your's must have been super glued on. Mines worked the first time every time so far. Glad it's working for you too : )

Ooooo really good idea. I’m definitely going to do this…..I just hope when I find I book i don’t use anymore I won’t open it and séant to keep it in that condition 🤣 💜

[@itsonlypaper]

It's so much fun to do. Let me know if you do it : )

I create : )
