Day Four

Day Four just posted! Enjoy!

Day Three - late but posted!

Day Three just posted.  Sorry issues all around tonight! I had three epic fails and finally just gave up and decided to paint a piece of 22x30 Fabriano so I could make a 16 page journal following Teesha Moore's instructions. I like this style of journaling. Fabriano Hot Press is also my favorite watercolor paper so far although I do use other kinds and I will be using different materials in the next few videos.

I will show you at the end of the month the journal I end up with. My plan is to use this for a journal for this month and see how that goes, no promises on that though, but regardless of what is done i will show you it at the end of the month. :D

Yes I misspelled Fabriano at the beginning of the video, I am tired!

Day Two

DAY TWO just got posted to YouTube!

It did not go as planned and I am still looking for the right camera angle I can work with and make happen. This was not it, so I learned that lesson!

I did not like the crayon I used, I am not sure if it is because it was cheap or if I just needed to be more aggressive with it and use more pressure.


It is all a process and the more I paint, the more I have and the more I learn, so that is what it is all about!

What is to come in 2014, at least in January anyway...

So I have made a huge goal for myself for January! 31 days of backgrounds. I really wanted to do something more awesome like a book a day, haha yeh right. School work, and the probability of me needing to pick up my PRN weekend night job because my husband lost his in December, left me really thinking on what could I FEASIBLE DO!

I have been following Kiala Givehand's year journey on YouTube of 52 books-Book in a Day, you can find her channel HERE. That is really where my heart is, making books, and there are many she shared that I hope to make in the new year. But I knew that was not feasible for me, YET. I still wanted to do something creative, as well as share it, inspire, and build my skills up. Heck, as well as use up all that stuff I hoard!

SO keep an eye out, I will posting Day One's video on January 1st!

Hello

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! It is hard to believe that next week will be 2014!

With the new year comes new goals and organization. I am always looking for new ways to be organized in a  creative way. If you are too head on over to the Amazing Biz and Life  Academy and grab your own 2014 calendar and workbook!

December 7th

It is past 1 am here and I am trying to upload some books onto Amazon to sell. So far one has worked of two, and I keep saving the second but it keeps getting marked as inactive and I cannot figure out why. I shall blame I need sleep and go to bed and look at it again tomorrow before I add more books!
