I was trying to choose between a few books - all looked good but just had money for one right now!  I am glad I chose this one - I love the simplicity in the way she presents information and the way lessons build.  Sure, anything goes, and I've done some fun pages but this takes it a step further and painlessly instructs as to why and when to use techniques.  Great inspiration!  Can't wait to start working through it again with an open journal and my tools at the ready!
