Mini Art-Journal Class- Discovering myself





In this class we will be making a mini art journal from scratch and at the same time covering topics that will take you on a journey of self-discovery.


What inspired this class? I was paging through a mag, when I saw an interesting interview. The questions were fun and interesting and I thought it would make a great mini album/journal.
So often we don't document our own lives. We scrap our kids, our husbands, even our pets, but often we don't do a page about ourselves.


This is a chance to document your story.


The class is done at your own pace and includes:
-Invitation to a private blog with daily lessons posted once class commences.
-Detailed instructions and photographs.
-Free printable/s for the class.

What you need for the class:
scissors or trimmer, adhesive, brads, thread and needle (or sewing machine is better), printer, ruler, scraps of paper, embellishements and your imagination!
This class if for anyone even if you have never done something like this before!


It will be a fun class, and a great excuse to cut and paste, and document yourself, your life, for yourself and family!
