So Many Things to Try

I tried to watch Monique's Book Pages but I am getting sleepy. So many great ideas and things to make. Glad I have the pass so I can gather my materials, go back, and make these wonderful project. Monique's Book Pages had so many ideas my head is spinning. Over the past two days I have learned so many ideas for pockets, pages, binding, and inspirational things to create. And, since I have the pass, there is more. Thank you for this great event. I am trying to keep up. I envy those who have been able to create things.

It sounds like you’re overflowing with inspiration from Monique’s Book Pages, and I love how you’re soaking in every idea, even if it’s a bit overwhelming. I had a similar feeling juggling projects in my own studies, and using a service like take my online course once helped me stay on track without missing out on learning opportunities. Moments like these show that having the right support can let creativity and productivity flourish together.

My Steampunk Beauty!

I finished! Yay! Ok it’s not finished because I have not personalized it yet. But the base is done. Michelle you are amazing! Love it!

Michelle you are so amazing at this! you got more done than me! I am working on yours, the funny thing is I printed out the extras but had to get the rest in the class, so I am sooo behind, but what I have got so far, I love it, how do you come up with this?

Belinda's layering workshop.

What a lovely way to start my day. Layering is something I try to do in my art journal so this was so much fun! I often forget how to do the steps. Can't wait for your clusters workshop tomorrow!

It’s beautiful!

Monique's Folio from kick off party.

As I live in Australia I watch most of the replays and the YouTube video is missing the measurements for the pieces of the folder to make the pockets. I also think she has put an extra pages in the measurements at the end as I cannot see it in the video unless that has been cut out also- pages 2b? Is it meant to be 2x pages 2a for pockets???

It is so annoying when living in the southern hemisphere and not being able to catch the lives.

It's tricky when working with A4 paper too.

I found it while making it the missing part is at the very end after Monique and Kristi say goodbye, 2a & 2b are on the same pieces of paper. For others getting confused.

Bingo!

This is fun.

First class

I had so much fun attempting my first journal. I wasn't sure what I was doing, but I liked how it turned out and I got to use one of MANY, MANY things in my stash. I still want to put in some finishing touches.

This is amazing, Paula! I love it.

Hi everyone!

This is my second year in the retreat. I've been junk journaling for about ten years. When I was 10 my (step) mom taught me how to make bowls from Christmas cards. Yep. As well as Blessing Balls and little notebooks - all from Christmas cards.

I'll have pictures to share soon. I've almost completed my journal from Einat. the envelope journal cover with Kristi is next on my list.

Great seeing friends & new faces.

Creative Blessings!

My equanimity project. Totally new to this and never heard of it, so reading about it and following along with Pam was very inspirational.

This looks great! Don't worry about how it looks now -- just decorate it, cover up imperfections, and call it good! Don't forget to post your progress so we can all oooh and ahh!


Layered Envelope Pockets with Kristi Stone

I learned that actually waiting to see what Kristi was going to would be helpful. tehe. I glued the front cover on before attaching the envelopes. oh well no biggy, I am really happy with how they turned out and I know I will be making many more. So thank you Kristi! this was a super Duper Great one!

Seeing your project with the layered envelope pockets made me smile because I’ve definitely been there gluing something in the wrong order and just going with it. I remember tackling a craft assignment while juggling coursework and thinking how much easier it would be to have guidance. At one point, I actually thought, get help with my Master level, wishing someone could simplify the steps so I could focus on creating without stressing over mistakes.

flip flop folio

I wasn't able to attend last night's welcome. Is there someway to get the folio's instructions? Thank you am enjoying the retreat today!

Flip Flop Folder

I finished my flip flip folder. I added a pocket on the inside of the left side and a hike strip for the paper so I can refill if needed.

Love your choice of papers. I have to decorate mine. I am going to make another one. The first one is like the first pancake you make. Comes out a little wonky and the next are better.

Last Night's Video

Is there a place where I can find last night's video. I would like to make the project.

Picture overload! These are some of Day 1. This has been an amazing and inspiring event. I have done nothing but soak up each presentation and want to make everything

In stead of the sugar skulls, I made Art Nouveau tags. Will colour and embellished as I use it.
