With only one day until December, I have a little unexpected announcement (due to the fact that unfortunatly, I will not be in Arizona this weekend teaching)
I have TWENTY "Countdown to Christmas Twenty Ten" Kits available right now go go go....to my ETSY to get yours...quick..there are only twenty
countdown to christmas kits
http://www.etsy.com/shop/homegrownandhandmade
and p.s..along with the kit, I have created a private "countdown" blog to follow along...for those who have taken a class and do not have the blog info, please email me at homegrown1(at)att(dot)net so that your access info can be emailed.
What you do with your "Countdown to Christmas" book is all up to YOU! You can follow along with me on my blog and see what I do and add, but I invite and challenge YOU to record, journal and add photos whenever you want..as long as you do...that is the key to this project...
"To STOP 5, 10...even 30 minutes or so during the busy days of December so that you can look around, record your thoughts, snap a picture...and journal about it". You can also use your book as an art journal, maybe a "holiday" to do list, or even as a holiday card holder/display...whatever you want!
To get ready to create, here are some items that you'll need to gather:
Scissors & Trimmer
Double sided tape and white glue (I LOVE "Dries Clear" Art Glitter glue)
Foam Pop Dots
Cardstock Scraps (for journaling and photo mounting),
Stapler Misc. Holiday-ish Stamps
Needle with embroidery floss
Hole punch/Crop-a-dile
"Creamy Brown" Cats Eye ink (and YOUR fav. colors)
Sanding block
