Yay! Early Christmas from Mary Ann Moss

A happy Christmas gift from Mary Ann Moss: she's discounted her Stencilry and Stenciled & Stitched classes  for the month of December!  I am so in.  I've been wanting to take more of her online classes, since Remains of the Day was such a kick, and this was just the impetus I needed.

Yeah, more crazy art to come in the new year.

I'm also taking Roben-Marie's new mini workshop, Sewing Paper Gift Bags.  These bags are adorable, and Roben-Marie is as engaging as ever while showing how to create them. 

I hope you're finding some really fun things to do during this December.  Don't stress.  Relax. Decide what's really important and what feeds your soul and do those things. 

Blessings, Deborah

First Painted Art Journal Page,,,Ever!

This is my first EVER painted journal page!  I finally got out the paints and stuff and played with them all day.  So. much. fun!
My medium has always been digital and I didn't know where to start with the paints.  But thanks to Roben Marie's videos and encouragement, I plan to do lots more of these.  You can see her making art journal pages here and here.
Do you see that big blob up at the top that I couldn't get worked out and finally had to cover with print--but I like it that way!  How much fun is this???
As our beloved Mary Ann Moss says, "Anything can be fixed!" Whooo hoooo!
