Words. Words? Words!

I'm am so excited to offer my next class over on The Art Studio @ Scrapbook News and Review.

It's called Words. Words? Words! - Part 1: Words & Text as Narrative.

Class starts this Friday, August 10. 

Seats are filling fast!

A little bit about the class:

The power of words.

A meandering, lyrical poem.

A heartfelt, handwritten note from mother to child.

One singular, inconsequential word on a page otherwise free of text.

A kaldeidoscopic, larger-than-life graffitied name whisking by on the side of a moving train.

A cacophony of type-print words spewed from one central point outward, overlapping and random in orientation.

Words can convey ideas and paint pictures through their meanings, rhythm, the way they’re shaped, the mediums in and on which they’re formed, their presentation, their singularity or their collection. They can make you see, feel and understand. They can uplift, enrage, devastate and comfort.

Much of art, whether it’s paper crafting, mixed media or fine art, exists as a vehicle for telling a story, born out of a blank page or canvas. A blankness that can be daunting. The trick is to know where to begin.

Over the course of four weeks, you’ll explore ways to use words and text as your palette for painting a story, first as narrative and then as art.

The first two weeks, in this class, you’ll focus on weaving words to spin your tale, whether it’s to document a child’s first haircut on a layout, to honor an anniversary on a card, to lay bare your deepest secrets in an art journal or to quip wittily on an ATC.

You’ll explore the who, what, when, where, how and why of journaling, and you’ll take away more than 15 ideas for storytelling sources. You’ll experiment with more than ten ways to play with your words to convey meaning, create mood and elicit emotion.

The final two weeks, in Words. Words? Words! Part 2, you’ll explore the use of words and text to create art just as you would use acrylic paints, ink, paper mache or other art mediums. Words will become both background and focal point. You’ll use text to create and enhance embellishments and you’ll identify 10 ways to mold words into foundations for your art. You’ll also create your own word art and you’ll begin to view everyday props as vehicles to exhibit and enhance your stories.

All along the way, you’ll be presented with numerous examples, samples and resources as well as encouraged to find your own voice, scour your own stash, and essentially mold the class to fit your needs.

Join me for the entire four weeks or just focus on the narrative or the art. Either way, you’ll walk away with an expanded storytelling toolbox you can apply to any type of paper and mixed media art.

Hope to see you there!!!

Very Happy Independence Day

We had a really great 4th of July.  It started out rainy.

Nothing like swimming in the rain!

The rainy day led to a reasonably cool evening.

Sparklers fun.

This was the first 4th of July I can remember ever where I wasn't drenched in sweat.  I know, TMI but trust me, it was amazing and enjoyable.

We got the kids a bunch of fireworks and there were at least 4 other neighborhoods all around us that had a ton of fireworks, too so it was awesome. 

And we could see the fireworks show from a nearby church from our backyard.  No fighting the crowds!

Hope you had a great day, too. 

And the goodness continued this morning.  Found both kids' coveted character backpacks, lunchboxes and water bottles (Skylanders and Monster High) which in and of itself rocked but then the lunchboxes were free with backpack purchase and the water bottles were buy one get one 50% off. 

Woohoo!!!!

Aaaannnnddddd my son FINALLY found the last Skylanders character we've been looking for since its release at the beginning of April.  I'm finally DONE with the DAILY trolling of the internet and stores for that bad boy and now it's on it's way...AND for cheaper than most stores' regular price. 

It's been a great couple days. 

It's the little things that just make your day, ya know?

Taking the girl to see Brave this afternoon. 

My first class debuts tomorrow and I'm so excited!!!!

Mists: Not Just Point & Shoot

Just a few more hours until I draw a name for a free spot in my class!!!  (6pm PST)

To enter, check out THIS POST.

All you need to do is comment to enter the drawing.

There are still a few seats left in the class, also.  It's going to be a full house and I'm so excited!! 

There is still time to hit that BUY NOW button and get in on the fun.

If you have mists and want to discover more ways to play with them other than just point and shoot on your backgrounds you NEED this class!  LOL!!!

Check out the description:

Mists. What’s not to love? But once you’ve sprayed a few pieces of cardstock, what do you with the other 90% of the bottle?

As a certified mist junkie, I know a thing or two about mists. I also have a large number of them and after awhile, the number of them outgrew the number of techniques I knew how to use with them. So I set out on a quest to find ways to use them and get some serious bang for my buck.

While I found a lot of great information, most of what I found were basic techniques that I had already figured out on my own. Occasionally, I came across something that piqued my interest and got me thinking in a new direction, but for the most part, I learned more techniques simply by playing and letting my imagination go wild.

I love the discovery process of trying everything I can think of and reveling over my successes and laughing at the things that went wrong. Even more, I love finding ways to rescue the things that went wrong and some of my best discoveries have come about this way.

When I decided to teach a class on mists, I knew I didn’t want to just cover the basics. While learning them is important, so is learning how to step outside the basics – and our own comfort zones – and learning how to take your skills to the next level.

I’ll still cover the basics, such as care and storage and spray patterns and color mixing, but we’ll also think outside the bottle and about ways to apply mists that you can’t accomplish with a measly spritz. Think bold splashes and oozy drips and you’ll have an idea of what I’m talking about.

My ultimate goal for the class is to have you push the limits on everything you can do with mists, including using them on surfaces you may not have thought of, using common tools such as paint brushes and brayers and spatulas in different ways, pairing them with basic scrapbook supplies such as stencils and masks and chipboard and rub-ons in interesting ways, as well as using them to up the wow factor on paints and gels and pastes and glues.

After taking Mists: Beyond Point and Shoot, they’ll no longer be mere sparkly splutters of color buried beneath your “real” embellishments. And you won’t want to make another layout or card or mixed media project without reaching for them. In the end, you’ll learn how to take your misting craftiness from ordinary to center stage, steal the show, in-your-face, colorific extraordinary.

Ready to step outside the bounds of basic misting? Click the Buy Now button, gather your supplies and get ready to learn a plethora of techniques and how to throw down the misty goodness on oodles of layouts, cards and mixed media projects. See you there!

Again, hope you all have a great day!!!!

Time To Fly

Supplies Cardstock: The Paper Company; Metal & Acrylic Charms: Laliberi; Mist Ink: Lindy's Stamp Gang; Pen: Faber-Castell; Markers: Copic; Stencil: The Crafter's Workshop

This is one of my favorite layouts of last year.  I created it for the EK Success Laliberi event on Scrapbook News and Review last December. 

These gorgeous clouds are made with mists!!!!  The colors make me drool.  I wish you could see this IRL because they are also wonderfully sparkly.  I ♥ Lindy's Stamp Gang mists.

I also colored in the metal dragonfly wings with mists.

The clouds were brought to mind today because we're expecting rain the next two days.  My kids are heartbroken because they're wondering what will happen to the fireworks tomorrow night.  We also bought a giant box of fireworks from Sam's Club and they've been dreaming of playing with them all week.  I just keep reminding them it may not be raining (hopefully) once it gets dark tomorrow night. 

Do you have any cool 4th of July plans?

Patriotic Mist

Supplies Cardstock, Patterned Paper, Letter Stickers, Metal Accents, Stamp: We R Memory Keepers; Mist Inks: Ranger, Tattered Angels; Glossy Accents: Ranger;  Pens: Sakura, Stampin Up; Masks: Advantus, The Crafter's Workshop

Getting patriotic with my mists today with the 4th of July coming up soon. 

I made this layout for the We R Memory Keepers event on Scrapbook News and Review last summer.  I have to say their Yankee Doodle line is one of my favorite of all times.  So much fun to work with. 

Do you do anything special for the 4th of July?  It's so darn hot here, even at 9:00 at night,  that we don't usually venture out to brave the crowds to see fireworks, even though I love fireworks.  There's a show nearby our house and while we can't see the lower ones, we still try to catch the show from our backyard. 

***

Getting so excited, my Mists - Not Just Point & Shoot class is getting closer!  Only one week away!!  The class is filling up quickly so if you are interested in taking it grab your spot soon. 

Don't forget I'm giving away a spot, also.  Check out THIS POST to enter. 

And a couple of my good friends are also giving away chances to win.

Diana's drawing ends tonight so get on over there to comment asap!

Julie's drawing runs through July 5. 

Thanks, my Sketchy Girls, for your support!

Have a great weekend!  Try to stay cool.

Giveaways & Mist-y Fun

Supplies Cardstock: The Paper Company; Patterned Paper, Wood Shape, Stamp, Mist Ink: Studio Calico; Linen Thread: Stampin Up; Ink: Ranger; Pouring Medium: Liquitex; Pen: Faber-Castell

More misty fun for you...this one was made for the Studio Calico event on the Scrapbook News and Review forum last year. 

Again, showing examples of some out of the box ways to use mist inks beyond point & shoot. 

We'll explore stuff like this and more in my new class:

Mists: Not Just Point & Shoot. 

The class, available for purchase now on The Art Studio @ Scrapbook News and Review, was born of my obsession with mist inks.  I'd begun to wonder what to do with all that inky goodness I'd been enthusiastically collecting other than spraying it on layouts. 

I'm a HUGE believer in playing with your crafty toys.  Who says things must always be used only for their original purpose?  So I played and discovered lots of fun ways to use that liquid treasure. 

Class starts July 6th.  You can BUY NOW until July 5th.  Class size IS limited so don't delay!

In case you missed my post this weekend, I'm giving away a spot in the class.  See THIS POST for more information. 

AND...

Some of my fave crafty girls, and my partners in Sketchy Thursdays crime, are also giving away seats in the class.  Check them out and leave them some love!

Diana - Design by Diana

Julie - Life with the Tucker and Wolek Clan

I miss these girls something fierce and don't get to chat with them near as often as I'd like anymore. 

So, tell me...what's your favorite mist ever?

Be You

Supplies Glossy Cardstock, Stamp: Stampin Up; Ink: Tsukineko; Mist Sprays, Mica Powder: Lindy's Stamp Gang; Gel Medium: Golden; Stencils: Elmer's, The Crafter's Workshop; Pens: Faber-Castell, Sakura

I'm loving sharing some of the projects I made for last November's Lindy's Stamp Gang event on the Scrapbook News and Review forum. 

Besides 80's-themed mixed media projects we got to make a few showcasing the versatility of the Lindy's Stamp Gang spray mists and mica powders.   Again, every coloring agent used on this project was a Lindy's mist or powder.   I went to town on this baby using the mists and powders with lots of tools and mediums.

So, I'm guessing by now you've caught on to my hidden agenda for showing you lots of projects using only mists as the coloring mediums?  I'm giving you a taste of some of the things you can explore in my upcoming class, Mists - Not Just Point & Shoot. 

This class goes on sale this Friday, June 22 when The Art Studio at Scrapbook News and Review debuts!

Yesterday I also told you all about my next class, which will be Words. Words? Words! - Words & Text as Narrative and as Art. 

Today, I'll tell you about the last class I'll have advertising on The Art Studio at this week's launch.

Monoprinting - The Art of Being Unique

This one will be available for sale on August 3 but as of this Friday you can "Save Your Spot" in the class if you don't want to risk missing out. 

Monoprinting is one of my absolute favorite mixed media techniques and I'm so excited to explore this subject with you.  My "official" description:

Who doesn’t want their art to be unique? But sometimes, it feels like there are only so many general techniques in paper crafting and multi-media and that you’re cranking out the same things as everyone else.

Fortunately, it’s not just what techniques know and what mediums you work with, but it’s also how you approach them that makes your projects all your own. Using a monoprint for a background, or for the base of an embellishment, is a surefire way to take your projects from ordinary to extraordinary.

Quite simply, a monoprint is a single impression of an image and you never get the same outcome twice. What’s exciting is that there are numerous mediums from which to make impressions and the base on which you print plays just as important a role in the uniqueness of your results.

Over the course of two weeks, you’ll become comfortable with the basics of monoprinting while you work with up to 10 types of mediums and 10 types of bases. You’ll explore tools and techniques to texturize your results and ways to adapt your prints to the size of your project, from ATCS and cards to layouts and canvases, and more. Finally, you’ll develop your eye for drawing out the stories within your monoprints and translating them into finished projects.

Join me for this exciting journey into crafty individuality and you’ll never look at your mediums the same way again and your projects will never look the same way twice!

Have a great day!

Cosby Knows Best

Supplies Stickers: American Crafts, Making Memories; Fibers: Stampin Up; Clothes Hanger Clip: Advantus; Watermark Ink Pen: Tsukineko; Spray Mists, Mica Powders: Lindy's Stamp Gang; Pen: Faber-Castell; Other: Cardboard

Still sharing some of my projects made for the Lindy's Stamp Gang event over on the Scrapbook News and Review forum last November. 

This is another one of my 80s-themed mixed media projects.  This time it's in the form of an ATC (artist's trading card, 2-1/2 inches by 3-1/2 inches).  Who could forget the era of the Cosby sweater?

Again, all the coloring agents are Lindy's Stamp Gang spray mists or mica powders.  That's including the colored fibers in the sweater. 

I really had a blast making this one.  Can you tell? 

What was your favorite (or most loathed) 80s fashion trend?

So excited for the launch of The Art Studio at Scrapbook News and Review!!!! 

I've loved putting together tutorials for the magazine for a couple years now so it's so exciting to get to be part of a site where I can expand it and put together one-, two-, four-, and six-week classes!!!!

Yesterday I told you about my first up class, Mists - Not Just Point & Shoot.

Today I'm going to share with you my next class. 

Words. Words? Words! - Words & Text as Narrative and as Art

This one will be available for purchase starting July 6 but as of this Friday, you can "Save Your Spot" in the class to make sure you don't miss out. 

My "official" description:

The power of words.

A meandering, lyrical poem.
A heartfelt, handwritten note from mother to child.
One singular, inconsequential word on a page otherwise free of text.
A keldeidoscopic, larger-than-life graffitied name whisking by on the side of a moving train.
A cacophony of type-print words spewed from one central point outward, overlapping and random in orientation.

Words can convey ideas and paint pictures through their meanings, rhythm, the way they’re shaped, the mediums in and on which they’re formed, their presentation, their singularity or their collection. They can make you see, feel and understand. They can uplift, enrage, devastate and comfort.

Much of art, whether it’s paper crafting, mixed media or fine art, exists as a vehicle for telling a story, born out of a blank page or canvas. A blankness that can be daunting. The trick is to know where to begin.

Over the course of four weeks, you’ll explore ways to use words and text as your palette for painting a story, first as narrative and then as art.

The first two weeks, you’ll focus on weaving words to spin your tale, whether it’s to document a child’s first haircut on a layout, to honor an anniversary on a card, to lay bare your deepest secrets in an art journal or to quip wittily on an ATC.

You’ll explore the who, what, when, where, how and why of journaling, and you’ll take away more than 15 ideas for storytelling sources. You’ll experiment with more than ten ways to play with your words to convey meaning, create mood and elicit emotion.

The final two weeks, you’ll explore the use of words and text to create art just as you would use acrylic paints, ink, paper mache or other art mediums. Words will become both background and focal point. You’ll use text to create and enhance embellishments and you’ll identify 10 ways to mold words into foundations for your art. You’ll also create your own word art and you’ll begin to view everyday props as vehicles to exhibit and enhance your stories.

All along the way, you’ll be presented with numerous examples, samples and resources as well as encouraged to find your own voice, scour your own stash, and essentially mold the class to fit your needs.

Join me for the entire four weeks or just focus on the narrative or the art. Either way, you’ll walk away with an expanded storytelling toolbox you can apply to any type of paper and mixed media art.

You have the choice of taking only Part 1 - the exploration of words as narrative, only Part 2 - words as art, or I'll also be offering a 10% discount if you sign up to take all 4 weeks before July 19th. 

I'll be putting up all the links to The Art Studio at SNR and to my classes when the site debuts this Friday!

Hope you have a great day!!
