Really?

I loved doing this page in my recycled tape journal. I used pearlescent rub on ink to create the background and then a variety of glaze pens and galaxy markers. It gave me an opportunity to practice a few different styles of decorative lettering. A lot of my journaling has a serious healing undertone so I was happy to be playful with this page. When you read the journaling, it makes sense. A very famous queen of all things home has this list on her website of how to stay stress free during the holidays: Strategize gift wrapping, think small for decor, tackle to-do's in good company, update address book, keep universal tokens on hand, make space in advance, tend the bar, tip smartly, fly lightly, buy baking staples, remember to unwind, draw up a budget and gift list before going shopping, master a basic cookie dough, create a plan for holiday entertaining, and postpone festivities. REALLY? I have to do all that to stay stress free??? I'm getting stressed just thinking about it. I think I'll stick to my own plan! :)
