As you can see from the previous post, yep, what a difference a class makes!
Now, I'm not trying to make my blog, "all journal pages, all the time", but I just had to show you the tremendous difference a class really did make. Learning new tools, like Gesso and Golden paints, learning some basics on composition, balance, seeing what others in the class are doing, getting opinions, it all makes an amazing change in my artwork. And I could not be happier.
I was so honored to have
Shelly Massey come literally, "right back to Texas", after just having taught here at
Paper Cowgirl in June. This time we held an intense two day workshop on the basics of journaling from actually creating a book, to creating backgrounds, pages, lettering, comp, color and more. (Check out the
PC Blog for more class info and pics).
Tickled, I'm positively tickled with the way my pages are now progressing. Just being able to immerse myself in the creativity of it all for two days was total bliss, as my friend Melissa kept saying. There is much to be said about hanging with like minded peeps. I know I will be on a creative high for the next several days. Yep, what a diff a day made!

Well, seeing this, no wonder I received such a terrific tag from you in the Bird Song swap! I haven't posted yet -- am hoping to by Labor Day -- my blog seems to be about two weeks behind my life! But I do love it and will be posting! Thank you!
