Happiness is not a place,
it is the journey.....
Well the journey to happiness for me is the last page of the baby mini!!!
Seriously, I made a mistake on one page & it went through to the other side. The mini is 4x 6" pages decorated both sides, to make 8 pages.... The ink seeped through & I had to set to & re make a whole page. I was so close to finishing & I was on a roll. I got the 6th challenge done quite quickly as I had bought some new papers & so wanted to play with them...
My sister's wedding card is designed & ready to go but as she reads my blog, I can't display the design until AFTER the wedding..LOL!!
So there I was thinking I was hot to trot, when I just didn't wait for it to dry. Own fault, but I have had to come up with an ingenious idea to disguise the mess.
Photo stickers... fab things.... Made a collage of them to cover the whole damaged side & the last scrap of paper to repair the other, less messed up side.....
The moral of the story..... get another cup of tea & wait a while...

Oh Paula... the mistakes I've made being impatient! I should never be a scrapbooker.... I can't wait for ink to dry, paint to dry, glue to dry.... I'm terrible - but you know what? I think it makes us inventive, having to find ways to cover our errors up Lol! :-) And some of never ever learn, do we? hee hee!
