Student Level:
All
Type of Workshop: Process and Project

 

 

Create a uniquely stitched tape covered, content filled journal using my favorite cardstock, paper ephemera, a plethora of deco tape, needle and thread. I quickly fell in love with this journal and carried it with me everywhere last summer as it is small enough for every day, on the go use. I loved how I could slip it in a Ziploc bag with a glue stick, some collage ephemera and a handful of pens. I worked on it every day, everywhere. You will learn how to blend and layer colorful ephemera and that leaving a little white space is good! This journal is definitely one of my most favorite books that I have ever worked in. I loved learning how to work with the open spaces on the pages, using pens, stencils, stickers and more. I can’t wait to share what I’ve learned with you! I guarantee you will love this journal as much as I did!

Instructor will provide for use in workshop:

  • rubber stamps
  • gel medium
  • a vast abundance of washi and deco tape
  • collage ephemera
  • transparencies
  • rub-ons
  • a plethora of pens and markers for you to experiment with
  • a large variety of my favorite stencils
  • all supplies necessary to make and complete the project except what is noted below
  • much, much more (I don't travel light!)

Students should bring:

  • scissors
  • bone folder
  • metal ruler
  • one chip/bristle brush to glue
  • waxed paper
  • paper towels (or a rag to glue with)
  • permanent ink pad (like Staz-On)
  • water container (to clean your brush)
  • small selection of favorite collage ephemera (background papers, focal images, etc… It is fun to bring your own favorites to make your project more personal)
  • baby wipes (optional but nice to have!)
  • a few of your favorite glue sticks (unless you prefer to work with gel medium which the instructor will be providing for you)
