Free Christmas card tutorial videos for you!

Hello gorgeous,

Free Christmas card tutorials went up this afternoon as an early gift on my course site and you can choose to make a few or all five of them. They are simple to make, but look difficult. ;) Check them out HERE.


Merry Christmas and I wish you a fabulous new year. 2016 will be a great year. Let's make it so!

Giveaway time! :)

I have been planning to arrange a giveaway on the blog for a while, and I came up with the idea of making you a beautiful handmade art journal with all the backgrounds all ready for you to embellish.  I actually got really excited about it, and spent hours making one, forgetting time, and forgetting to eat lunch. Maybe I should make more of these?  (Less calorie intake.)  I used Strathmore Bristol watercolor paper, really heavy duty.  After making the backgrounds, I folded and sewed them together with embroidery thread.  The journal measures 7x11" - that's what you get when folding a 11x14" sheet of paper.  There are 16 pages, 18 if you count the inside covers.  You can of course embellish the outside covers too.  Yay!  It's a $30.00 value.  Here are a couple of pictures.
