Joan Young I'm glad this was a useful tip for you!! I totally understand when ink escapes, lol. I make cards and scrapbook as well and have had many ink mishaps. Some can be covered, and some just don't look right covered up so then you have to start over. That's definitely not my favorite part, lol.

Thank you so much!! Foster is just beautiful! He has an older brother that just loves him so much. I'm so happy for their little family of 4 🥰

Francės Long, thank you so much to all three of you!! He is absolutely precious!!

He is just the cutest!! Here he is with his proud big brother, Laken.

Francės, thank you!! It really does help!! You always remind us to keep our hands clean, and this is one more additional step we can take, even if the paper isn’t white 😊

Francės, great question, for sure!

Joan Young , this is how I took care of that little issue, lol

Joan Young, this is how I’m getting around the one photo at a time situation, lol. I’ll just reply twice. Here’s the back of the book with the spots.

Thank you so much, Joan!!

White can be tricky but I take a few precautions when using it. Before I start, I clean off my workspace really well first with a cleaner and wet cloth to remove any dust or adhesive residue from a prior project. I also usually wait to work on the covers and spine when the inside is done, if the papers I use are also light. I did a book last month that got a couple of spots on the back cover after I’d already put the design paper on it, so I used a few embellishments and covered up the spots. I’ll see if I can figure out how to make one photo with the before and after so you can see it. I can only add one with my comment.
