I have a little confession. I have purchased more books than I care to count on art journaling and mixed media art. The problem is, when I look in them I get so excited and intimidated that I don’t actually do anything. I have this really deep desire to try this but something gets me stuck before I even start.
So, I signed up for Jane Davenport’s latest online class….seriously how could I resist, it has art journaling techniques and fairies. She said there might even be a mermaid or two as well. Swoon. When I was a kid I wanted to be a mermaid. It got so bad sometimes that my mother had to resort to bribery to get me out of swimming pools. One day I am going to do a mermaid quilt so watch out.
Also watch out for art journal posts...I said that to keep me honest because I AM GOING TO DO THIS !
By the way, see that adorable book? I found it on e-bay. We are going to learn to alter it. I’m so excited!
Check back tomorrow for the Marie Bostwick book winner.
I checked out her site, looks way to cool...I'm a want a be drawer, maybe someday I'll try this. Enjoy, can't wait to see what you do with it.

Go for it! Have fun. Set small goals for yourself, like 15 minutes a day after dinner (or whenever you don't have applique scheduled). Someday I'm going to do the same with machine quilting, but right now my fancy machine needs a tune-up; she isn't stitching well enough for quilting.
