Okay! now onto junelle's awesome artsy journal pages for September
I think so far this is my FAVORITE art journal page! I love love love bottled ANYTHING.. homemade canned delicious goodness. I however do NOT can myself.. (my mom tried to teach me.. I was a poor learner.. had no interest really).. HOWEVER The good news is.. my husband LOVES to can.. and when we do a garden.. he cans the most delicious things.. salsa, jam, applesauce, apple pie filling, beats, pickled cabbage (I am saying ewe gross.. but he loves it)

SO i LOVED this page.. totally reminded me of fall.. and canning season! enjoy! What I love about the bottles she "canned" Is that they each hold personal things.. like "love, joya, Goodness, kindness.. patience.. all of those things we are striving for each day. What an awesome reminder that when we aren't feeling down, we can go to our room where all of our "food" is stored and grab a bottle of kindness and open it and share it!

 

 

seriously love this. I would love this as a canvas.. may have to talk Junelle into making me an original on canvas with this for my new art studio!  :) (Junelle are you listening lol)

 

SO SO dang cute.. thanks junelle!

Here is the video she made for us to show us all how to make it! Its broken down in two parts.. so enjoy!

Part one:

 

 

Part Two

 

 

So as I said before. we leave saturday for 8 days.. HOWEVER I have some fun things planned for the blog while I am gone!  Monday I will be posting MY september video.. using the Mixed Media kit! Can't wait!
and next wednesday.. excited to share with you something fun.. my friend Art McCracken is up to.. and a special giveaway too on some of my upcoming classes!

So see you then!
Happy Thursday!

Happy monday FRIENDS!!  first off.. THANK YOU so much for the HUGE support of the online workshops class sale! I was in awe of so many of you that took advantage of the sale (We extended it until end of day today.. btw). It makes me so happy and grateful that so many of you are so willing to get come get messy with me.. and to take that Leap into finding your inner artist and truly believing you ARE an artist! Seriously thank you!! CAN NOT WAIT to see what you do with your classes!

when it rains it pours... and then there is a rainbow

confused yet at what this post is about? lol.. i know.. im a dork. so this last weekend we had are big huge campbell family reunion.. my aunts and uncles, cousins, second cousins.. and even some third.. and it was a BLAST.. i am sad to report I only made it to round two of the Canasta tournament (last year my partner and I won it).. but that's okay. we still had fun!  Well sunday night about 3 am in the morning.. my daughter calls us from her cell phone (she's 12 lol) letting us know that she was downstairs and had just thrown up. My husband rolls over to tell me and then he jumps up and runs to the bathroom himself. I was like great. What have we hear. Well by noon yesterday all but two of my kids were sick throwing up, including me and Ben.. AND i texted my brothers and sisters to warn them that we were sick and soon the replies started coming in that they too had sick kids and they were also sick. Then texts saying aunts and uncles were sick and cousins lol..  at first we thought it was food poising.. but  a few went to the doctor and no. It is a highly contagious stomach flu. Today we all feel a little better but still dealt with kids throwing up all night long. Today I just feel week.. but not sick anymore. I am just glad this happened before thursday.. as our kids start school thursday!

So that is the rain.. now for the rainbow :)..

Last week I mentioned that Junelle had started doing projects using our main kit.. and showed you her project and video for the July kit.. and THIS week we are lucky enough to get to see what she does with the June kit!

As you might remember she is doing an art journal page using the main kits (from my Scarlet Lime Store)  each month ... here is what she did for june.

I love this girl and how she is got her bags packed and ready to go.. awesome.

 

 

 So fun.. thank you Junelle!!! Here is the video!

 

 

Junelle simply rocks.. 

and SPEAKING of Junelle and workshop classes.. my fall line up of classes will be available for signup starting NEXT week.. I have three we are offering...originally I had planned on doing a full holiday workshop.. including halloween, fall , christmas and winter.. but have decided to divide the class up.. and do the halloween and fall workshop in september and make it just a fun five day workshop.. with whimsical halloween and fall mixed media art projects (including two awesome guest artist who will be also doing some cool projects as well).. and then offering a bigger 2 week workshop for the Christmas/Winter one in November.. since it covers so many more subjects.. 

then of course we have Junelles NEW workshop that starts in October.. and then to end the year we will have another 12 Artsy Ornaments of Christmas again this year! With 12 different teachers, 12 different projects for the holidays! So it will be a super fun fall and winter filled with new classes and new inspiration! can't wait! So watch for then news on all of those next week. I am going to be offering a package deal where if you sign up for all three or even two.. there will be discounts given.

anyhow.. okay.. i better head back to bed. Feeling pretty yuck lol.. and need to get better.. my kids need school clothes and school supplies and school starts the day after tomorrow.. so I HAVE to get feeling better so I can go tomorrow!
