How To Beautify a ChipBoard Notebook Cover and Giveaway and Winner Announced

Two years ago, when I signed up for the Documented Life Project, I received two Chipboard notebooks.  I never used them in connection with all the wonderful tutorials, and they've been sitting on my shelf of "things to repurpose!"

Recently, on Stencil Girl Talk, I came across two wonderful tutorials by Gwen LeFleur and Debi Adams.  I incorporated bits of both of them to jazz up this book.

You can also watch Fallen Leaves Chipboard Cover on YouTube here.    In addition to my new Fallen Leaves stencil, I used the Women Heal the World, Dots and Dashes and the 9 x 12 Stencil from the January 2014 Stencil Club Kit.  I found that heavy body acrylic paints worked best for this project, and was also happy to have an excuse to use some of my acrylic markers.

I hope this video gives you some ideas, and that it inspires you the way the StencilTalk tutorials inspired me!  

GIVEAWAY ALERT:  I will send one of the Fallen Leaves stencils to one commenter!  Leave a comment below with your email address to be eligible to win.  I'll announce the winner on my blog next Tuesday!

Picasso Inspiration at Creative Jumpstart 2016

Creative Jumpstart just ended and while I'm sad, I'm also a bit relieved.  Why?  Because I LOVED IT SO MUCH that I couldn't seem to focus on anything else!  Ha!  Every online class or challenge should grab you the way #cjs16 grabbed me!

Our second to last Master Artist was Pablo Picasso.  WOW - so much inspiration from one person.  Here are the pieces I created.  

To see more of my work from Creative Jumpstart, click here.  For more about my Picasso-inspired creations, check out my Instagram feed or search the hashtag #cjs16 on Facebook to see my and many other artists' works.   

Speaking of Master Artist inspiration - 

my Chagall inspired ceramic ware is now available online.  There are two lines; one called "Beloved," perfect for weddings, anniversaries, and Valentine's Day, and the other is a new "Woman of Valor" line, perfect for the women in your life!

I hope you'll check them out!  Our last Master Artist was Anselm Kiefer.  Next Tuesday, I will show you step out photos of how I translated his emotional work.
