Hi, My name is Stephanie and I am an...

...art wuss. I guess it was after I posted the photo of the journal I made for Michelle next to the one she made for me. Not that I wasn't happy with it. I'm so glad that I tried something that I had been wanting to and I want to make more of these. But I had also been inspired by a journal that Teresa McFayden had made and had been wanting to try my hand at that also. So I went with the one "similar" (even the paint can handle is attached to be carried) to Teresa's and it seems more in keeping with the kind and quality of Michelle's. I did go into the fetal position but once I uncurled I realized that there was a lot of validity to what I was feeling so I started fresh this morning and I feel really good about this one. I've made and sold a lot of journals in the past but it's safer and usually better to stay within a venue you're used to especially when it's a gift for someone. Here I come USPS!
