An artist friend of mine has been talking art journals for a while, and I love journals and notebooks of all kinds (as prior posts here will attest). She signed up for this free workshop and since it is free and uses words, I thought "what the heck; why not try this as an intro to art journaling?" The other advantage to this workshop is that it has no time limits so I can work on it as slowly as my life demands.
Now I make it a point to use purely Stampin' Up! products whenever possible, so I will be adapting much of this to use things like our watercolor crayons and markers, as well as our alphabet stamps and our exclusive Sizzix dies (the negative images of our alpha dies make cool stencils).
In other words--the workshop is simply a jumping off point for me--total inspiration in how to combine art and words...care to join me?
Who knows what will appear here? The angst and triumphs of a fledgling novelist, book and movie reviews, green living tips, card making and paper crafting--and yes, sometimes, rants or raves about life in this great day and age. Come and join me on the journey!
"I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing." ~ Dame Agatha Christie
