Free Art Journal Workshop

This artwork belongs to Liz Hicks

My generous, free spirited friend Liz Hicks

is offering her expert talent

and has created a Free online Journal Project.

Sometimes you have to just jump in and do it!!

Liz says "Almost a year ago I had an idea for an on line class. A class that would encourage my crafting friends to take the easy step towards art journaling. A class where I could share tips, techniques, videos, projects and prompts that would encourage others to try these techniques or ideas out plus take the time to create something just for themselves. "

So, if you have been tossing around the idea

of starting an Art Journal, but didn't know where

to start, NOW IS THE TIME !!

P.S. I will be adding my first attempt to this page soon,

It is in the drying stage as I type...

This is going to be so much fun!!

Thanks Ms Liz

My First Page in this Art Journal Class

The glue is still drying on this literally,

 but I had to post it. I am not a primary color girl,

so I am pushing myself out of that comfort zone...

using baby steps  with the markers.

The finished page {I am sure we will be adding more}

 is much different than I thought

it would be. I started with 2 colors, brown and blue

This is what I ended up with

I chose:

"It Is Just A Day In Your Life"

as my beginning phrase.

I have used this with my children on numerous

occasions. I always tell them, "No matter What

happens today, it is up to 'You' to decide what

kind of a day you are going to have.

It is just one day in your life, so you can choose

to enjoy every moment or not. But, tomorrow

you will get up and you will decide

What kind of a day it will be."

So, Today 'I' choose to have a Happy Day

and I hope you do too.
