Wallpaper typically comes in two pieces -- the face sheet and the backer that has the paste. Continue to gently peel the face sheet off. When you get down to the backer, use ratio of 1 to 1 of hot water and vinegar in a spray bottle. Let it soak in then use a putty knife to scrape off. Clean wall well with additional hot water and vinegar. Once dry, patch any nicks with spackling. Seriously, it looks like you're going to have a fairly easy job with this wallpaper. Good luck!
I do what the person above does but instead of using a metal putty knife, I use a plastic scraper that doesn't leave any dents or nicks in the wall. Also, for the spray, you can add some liquid fabric softener or a little Dawn dish liquid instead of vinegar. Let it soak in and it's very easy to scrape off.

Scrape the wall paper with the shark and spray on cheap window cleaner. The stuff you buy for cars. Wait a few minutes. It should easily peel off once it is soaked into the paper.
