Here is your change to take an exciting new e-course from Hope Wallace Karney of Paper Relics and Besottment. For $28, you will get access to a unique world of journaling, including all of the following:
1 tips and resources PDF*
2 Journal Spread Step by Step PDFs*
(these walkthroughs are especially good if you are sacred of facing a blank page)
Images that you can print to use in the two step by step spreads - the same images I use in mine.
Private blog to check for prompts and to find all downloads
Private environment to ask questions (of me and each other), share photos of your spreads, and to get to know one another better (via flickr)
A Nostalgic Musing bookplate - not a downloadable one - one in the actual US mail, professionally printed for you to use in your journal for the class. Plus an additional small surprise packaged with it. (available to both US and international students)
** For an extra $10 - you can also get a journaling packet of some of my favourite journaling supplies including old papers, dyed coffee filters, and paper doily sent to you along with your bookplate.
4 Journaling prompts - to really make you think.
Every other monday, starting April 12th, I will post a prompt. It will be something to thing about and write about AND something tangible you must use creatively in your spread
Each alternate Monday, starting April 19th, I will post my journal spread for you to see - and a video talking about it, what I was thinking, how I completed it, including techniques I use.
You may join in at any time - but the first round will be ‘live’. All class content will be available for at least 6 months.
A button for your blog (I would love it if you posted it, but not mandatory!) that can link to HERE.
The left is a .JPG with a white background, and the right is a .PNG with a transparent background (just right click and save as...)

*Please note that one of the walkthroughs and the tips and resources PDF were the same that I offered as part of Artist Class in February. If you are one of the people who signed up for that Artist Class session using the discount code “paperrelics” please contact me for a discounted price for this course.

I also just signed up, Hope! So excited, as I am taking a week long road trip from So California to upstate New York in May with my 23 year old daughter, and want to journal all about it! Yay!!!!

Hey Hope, are there any special tools we need to have for this?
Posted by: Leanne Shawler | April 02, 2010 at 12:59 PM
Very good question!
The PDF exercises will list out what you need for them on the first page.
For the other journaling exercises - the 4, each week with the journaling prompt I will tell you what you will need, and you have 2 weeks to do the exercise (my finished spread will be posted after 1 week)
So, the only things you really need is a journal, some pens and basic craft supplies (scissors, adhesive, etc).
I will do a post about this as well!
Thanks Leanne!

Hi,
I took the online artist class that contains some of the same materials, I was wondering if you could email me the adjusted price, and how to sign up for the class that way?
Thanks,
Kate
