Typically, with me and paint, I managed to get it on my previous page!! As a result I had to change one photo and the words, but fortunately had a duplicate bigger picture (top right) to replace the two smaller ones. And I guess "Queen's Diamond Jubilee" is better than "Britannia" after all. Lucky accident.

- Hi, Welcome to my Blog. I'm a lapsed crafter of late but still managing my diary Scrapbooking, plus cards as required. Previously I've also dabbled in ATCs, Tags, Altered Books, Art Journaling, Décopatch, Knitting, Crochet, and Embroidery amongst other things. I live in Surrey, UK with my husband and son. For exercise I usually play Badminton and go Ballroom and Latin Dancing, not really got back to the latter since the pandemic. I like walking which I couple with Geocaching and sometimes Bouncing on my Rebounder (mini trampoline). I am a Christian.

Altered Book Lesson 9
Typically, with me and paint, I managed to get it on my previous page!! As a result I had to change one photo and the words, but fortunately had a duplicate bigger picture (top right) to replace the two smaller ones. And I guess "Queen's Diamond Jubilee" is better than "Britannia" after all. Lucky accident.

I just adore your striped page, awesome job on that background, the paper towels gave it a wonderful texture too! And I too have had issues with getting paint on previous pages! Glad to hear I am not the only one! lol waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)
I'm about to fall asleep, but had to visit. When I did, I perked up right away. As usual, I fell in love with the background that incorporated bits of the British flag. Of course, using the red, white, and blue was pretty awesome, too. I really enjoyed the entire latest piece. As for the Queen's Jubilee, I think it's the perfect addition to the page.
Please don't forget to lay a bit of wax paper under the page you are working on and you'll never have to redo a page ever again.
Great advice from the Mistress of altered books above. I just love your striped pages, the more flags the better as far as I am concerned. Very patriotic but also very beautiful too. Crafty hugs, Anne x
Two great pages, your Red, White and Blue page is truly inspirational. Our Liz's Diamond Jubilee is certainly worth celebrating, I was the only one on my road with a Union Jack up, but heck this is America. Keep being drawn back to your first page, the lines and shapes take you all over it. Well done!
What great memories you are making. Torn tea towels are a creative touch of texture.
OOh BJ, loving your page very much, what a fab way to remember the Jubilee celebrations (lol, without a raindrop in sight!!)What a great use of kitchen roll for texture too, I have to admit to a napkin/tissue addiction because I love the texture it creates and am always on the look out for new designs when I am out and about.
Hugs x
oooooooooooooo I love love this BJ!!!!!!!! Its so colourful and I love how you sourced your Union Jacks :D xxx
Love your stripes! They form a really appealing grid.
