    Success in a big book of fail

    journalI was about to chuck this book in the trash. Every time I made a journal page in this book, it was simply awful. It seemed as if the book was stealing my mojo.

    This was a last ditch effort for the book. If I wasn’t happy today…it was going away in a really permanent fashion.

    I think I’ll keep it around, at least for the time being.

    Reflected happiness

    20130421_1846

    I finished the very last page in one of my journals, which ironically happened to be the inside cover.

    The bold orange made me happy. When I spotted the quote in my stash I knew it was meant to be.

    Other bits and pieces also found their way into my hands from a drawer of randomness. I keep thinking I need to sort that stuff but sometimes chaos is best for my creative process.

    This heart makes me so, so happy.

    The texture…  The inking on the edge… The the fact that its asymmetrical…

    Yeah! Love it when things work out.

    If you’d have seen the mess I made yesterday in another book, you’d truly understand why this one has restored my confidence. YIKES!
