School is out! It is officially summer here.Can't think of a better time for Kara to offer up a class that sounds amazing. I've been wanting to get started on another summer album, I had so much fun doing mine last year.
from Kara's blog....
I love summer. I do adore fall and moments of winter and spring is always a season to be celebrated when it finally arrives. I like spring because it brings summer. And I always, always need summer.
I need those summer nights of thinking and renewing. I need the heat to boil away the grime of the winter and of my mind. I need random adventures with my friends and family.
Most of all, I need to digest all of it. With summer always comes a certain level of laziness. Though I tend to have more time to devote to making things and recording my summer, I rarely take advantage of it. That is why I am so pleased to bring my you my next class, Summer of Love. Follow along on an adventurous two weeks of art journaling and photography. I’m especially excited to show you the magic of the night through your camera lens. We’ll be learning night photography techniques and great photo prompts to record your summer through the day. Step by step instructions to create a mini album from vintage books and plenty of journaling prompts.
All the details for the class are HERE.
All the details for the class are HERE.
The class includes 30 journaling prompts, 18 photography prompts and techniques, daily art journaling techniques, mini-book cover and page tutorial, 2 printable embellishment pages, 2 videos, email access to instructor, and featured artwork and photography from Michelle Clement and Danielle Thompson.
**To top it off, Kara is kind enough to give away one lucky winner a spot in the class! Thanks so much, Kara. To be entered in the drawing, please leave a comment here by midnight (CST) on Wednesday, June 16th and let me know what you are most looking forward to this summer and your email so I can reach you if you win.**
Ohhhh I would love to win a chance to take the summer love class!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely class and what a neat idea for a blog. I'm so glad I found it.

Fun, fun! I'd love to be entered! I'm looking forward to spending lots of time with my girls this summer. My oldest daughter has become really interested in journaling and this would be a great project for us to do together!
ReplyDeletePopcicles and ice cream for dinner. Blue skies. Delicious fresh fruits and vegetables from our local farmers. Margaritas. Independence Day BBQ. State Fair. Long days, long nights--so much to look forward to! And the knowledge that autumn is right around the corner...my favorite season.
ReplyDeleteOh how I'd love to win a spot in this class! I am looking forward to reading lots of good books while soaking in the sun! PS I love the idea of this blog!
ReplyDeleteA great summer giveaway! I'm most looking forward to just swimming in the backyard pool and reading some light summer reads!
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to spending the entire summer at the beach! All summer! I can't wait. Plus I was given photography classes for my birthday, so what better place to practice, right?
ReplyDeleteI hope everyone has a great summer!

My summer this year I hope = Big blue skies with hardly a cloud in, elderflower cordial or bubbling elderflower champagne. A big kitchen table set out in the back garden, set for a self indulgent afternoon tea just waiting for friends to join. Finally, a big lazy hammock to read those summer books in. Would love to learn how to capture these thoughts in the class.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win! I'm looking forward to local fresh fruits,vegetables and flowers along with a slower pace. Ah, sweet summer days.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful summer project!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to the arrival of a new little niece at the beginning of July! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for a chance to win a spot in the class! I am looking forward to the zinnias blooming their heads off with all of this RAIN!!! Also looking forward to the slower pace, kids sleeping in, and spending time outside (if it ever stops raining :)
ReplyDeleteI also love creating summer minibooks so that I can look back at how the kids are growing and how our activities change and how they stay the same from year to year.
Oh my what a delightful idea. I hope you pick me...lol.
ReplyDeleteHey it rains all summer long here in the Pacific NW, I wish we had more sunshine.

I'm really looking forward to getting out my mason jars to drink homemade lemonade and iced tea out of...walking on the beach...and those summer nights when it's just too darn hot in the house we all go outside and play board games or cards. Simple, but fun. Thanks for the chance!

ReplyDeletei'm looking forward to late night curfews, watching the sun rise, ice cream runs, day trips to the dunes, picnicking, and summer love.
I am looking forward to the lake. I love to boat and just hang out by the water. It takes me back to my childhood in Wisconsin and the perfectly preserved memories of finding something to do while at the cabin for the summer.

Kara makes THE perfect classes! <3 I am most looking forward to crafting 'happier' things. In the winter it is far too easy to get into a funk and negative state, but now that the sun is shining it's time for fun and light-hearted crafting! -Carly carlyholgate@gmail.com
