by letting the decoupage dry and then letting the paint dry and then letting the puffy paint dry...
so that I can go onto creating the next page and the next page and the next page until it gets filled up and will burst at the seams with happy...
Today, practice patience so that you can burst open with happy.

Yes, please tell us how you put this beautiful book together! Did you start out with a blank book and add lined papers to some of the pages? I would love to make one for myself. Thanks for sharing your art, Stephanie!

I think patience is a life long lesson, and yes, practice is the key. I always love your posts Stephanie! :)
