[@annhind5261]

Letting go of "it has to be perfect" is wonderful. I have loved this little series.

[@ShawnPetite]

The best thing we can do in all areas.... letting go of things!!

[@kerryloper6142]

Just beautiful!! Love the fall look nothing like a pile of beautifully colored leaves and crispness in the air. Thank you for sharing. ☮️❤️

[@ShawnPetite]

Thank you Kerry! thanks for watching... fall is my favorite season!

[@janemcbain5151]

Thank you! Your words are truly inspiring. This series is beautifully created just by letting go. So true.

Thank you jane, I'm so glad that I was able to inspire you!

I am in love with this concertina. I’ve been in the letting go phase of life too and it’s hard work. Art helps do much and I too learn something new each time I’m at my desk. Thank you for such a beautiful letting go series. Fall is my jam. ❤

[@ShawnPetite]

Fall is my favorite too! So glad you're here and ... here's to letting go!

This was soooo good to watch! I love this idea. It really inspires me to do my own concertina. I hope you do another concertina journal series. Very enjoyable watch. Thank you.

[@debbiereed8341]

[@elvirafischer4012]

Dear Shawn, your letting go journey is amazing, wonderful, freeing... I love it so much. You are so inspiring to me ❤❤❤

[@ShawnPetite]

Thanks Elvira! so glad you are part of my journey!

[@scrappysoulsister]

So happy I did this one! Mine is very different but I used what I have and let the pages guide me. There are some buildings and some people showed up to the party not perfect but perfectly fun! Thank you Shawn for your videos and inspiring me to embrace the imperfections ❤

[@ShawnPetite]

I'm glad you did it too! I love it when things show up to the party that we didn't expect. that's the best.... just letting happen what happens!

[@scrappysoulsister]

@@ShawnPetite Amen!

[@hollydickerson5785]

Love this but I just watched your video on Peace last year. You are such a gentle soul!

[@betsymcghee8915]

I'm in the process of doing this! Hoping for a winter, spring and summer version!

[@andreaharwood-jones7503]

Can't wait to try this!

[@ShawnPetite]

Yay!!

[@LibbyGreenberg-f1i]

It's Sunday and looked for you in my email. Oh No!!! Remembered to check KZbin.

[@ShawnPetite]

Yup the email was a little late getting out this morning!

[@waukonstandard]

Do you ever have projects like this stick together over time?

[@ShawnPetite]

I do, but I keep a piece of parchment paper between the pages of ALL of my journals. No sticking! thanks for being here!

[@fairytalesandfireflies8237]

Good morning Shawn, I love this, it's just beautiful but for the life of me I can't figure out what the actual overall size is. I actually left a note in the discussion section of the subscriber library. At this point my book is 16x32 and I have it divided into 8 panels but that isn't how your is is it? Mines seems overly big lol . Ok thanks Shawn and thanks for the series. I look forward to seeing you every Sunday. ~Patti

[@ShawnPetite]

It's 11x 44.5 .....I taped 3 11x17 sheets of paper together and then cut off one fold to make the flaps fold in. I hope that makes sense. Each fold is roughly 5.5 ish inches wide, there are 8 folds which would make that length 44.5 ish

[@fairytalesandfireflies8237]

@@ShawnPetite 3 11x17 sheets makes perfect sense. I am going with the size I have since I already have it prepped. I was working with previously used 8x10's and I'm pretty happy with that. I had to prep them with house primer as my gesso was bad so we will see how it turns out. Thanks for taking the time to shoot me an answer . Have a great week ~ Patti

[@ShawnPetite]

@@fairytalesandfireflies8237 just fyi, house primer works great in place of gesso!! Ive used it many times.

[@pandorademarco]

Can't find the instructions for the concertina cover in the subscriber library

[@ShawnPetite]

I had it all there just forgot to activate it. You should be able to see it now! sorry!!
