2020 Vision LIVE ONLINE Workshop Register for an 18 week (Jan-April 2020) online accountability/creativity/spiritual growth workshop with Stephanie Ackerman to Inspire, Ignite, Increase, Awake and Motivate you to live the extraordinary life God has planned for you.
In the November 52 Pickup email I stated that by this time each year, I usually have all of the verses for the following year but 2019 has been a much different year.
I have gone back and forth on what to do, how to do it and quite frankly, IF I should do it but after spending many hours working, studying and writing, I am changing things up again. The name might sound familiar but things are a little different in a good and simple way.
Just stay with me for a minute.
Six years ago I created and taught an online and in-store workshop called 52 PickUp based on 52 weeks in one year and creating a card per week (or 4-5 per month) with a verse, quote or focus word to use as a reminder to ourselves and for others of something we might have already have known, just forgot to remember.
Five years ago I re-created the workshop still based on the 52 weeks and started to incorporate more of the 52 weeks of Documented Faith weekly verses along with the monthly focus words.
Two years ago I started something new called Documented Faith Mixed Media Monthly combining all the above and adding in the finished cards so that those who either did not have time to create or simply did not want to create could just download, print & cut.
In 2019, I gave you all of the above where you can do all of the creating yourself OR do none of the creating and just print & trim!
I had based my decision on not to do the online class in 2020 based on a few things "I told myself" without knowing what you liked. It is not that I need approval, but I do not hear from you on what you like and what you want more of. I only hear about what you don't like and what you are unhappy with.
I also based my thoughts on Email statistics. UGH. BAD idea but I am being honest.
EMAILS
Technology is always changing, browsers connect and then sometimes they don't. I am convinced that some emails are with the "other socks" that get lost in the dryer and with the containers that have no lids or vice versa. Some of you got emails, some of you didn't, some of you never open them, some of you unsubscribed, some of you created, some of you didn't.
VIDEOS
I did not know you cared about them. I had a really good heart to heart conversation with someone in the class that gave me "student viewpoint" Here is what I didn't know: You want to see what and how I create regardless of whether or not you have seen it before.
52 Words/52 verses will be provided in a PDF and posted at the BEGINNING OF THE YEAR in the online classroom. We all need God's word in our life and we all need different truths and reminders at different times.
52 Card Color Backgrounds will be provided in a PDF and posted at the BEGINNING OF THE YEAR. These will be available for you to print out on sticker paper, card stock or plain ol' paper. You can add WHATEVER VERSES you want or need to these card backgrounds and tape into your planner, tuck in your wallet, share with someone who needs encouragement or just leave them around where someone may find it.
WORDS - A PDF to download and cut with "good words" I have cut and torn from books and devotionals.
Monthly Process Video - At the beginning of each month, a short process video with password will be posted in the classroom. Whether you receive an email or it gets lost in space, all you need to do is go straight the the classroom. The password will be post right above the video.
52 PickUp 2019 - You will gain access to the 2019 Classroom to mix up your cards to create a variety of cards, colors and mediums.
TheRIGHT NOW price is $52.00 for the entire year (That is $1.00 per week)
Here is the catch....
You need to sign up NOW so you get the best price. The price is going to go up on January 1st to $75.00 for the year (which is still only $1.44 per week)
The supplies are basic. I will be including and updating a general supply list but always encourage you to use what you have. Here is a quick look at what I have on my worktable:
White Cardstock cut into playing cards sizes (or a deck of cards) - To create backgrounds on that can be embellished with words
Assorted brands and colors of acrylic paints (for backgrounds)
Tom Holtz "chit chat" and "Small Chat" stickers (to add sentiments)
Assorted washi tapes (to add color and pattern in small ways)
Signo Uniball White Pigment Paint Pen (to make marks)
Black Charcoal Pencil (to scribble with)
Matte Medium (to stick stuff down)
Baby wipes (for dirty fingers)
WORDS - lots of words cut and torn from books and devotionals (a download of "good words" will be posted)
Here are some examples of the past years cards:
So, are you ready?
Let's create through another year together!
