Art Journaling Workshop - July 2

Looking for a creative way to get your kids to write this summer or to record vacations or events over summer break?  I am offering an art journaling workshop on July 2 at Leidy's Church. I have a few spots left in the 9-12pm class and space available in the 12:30-3:30pm class.  Cost is $25 and includes a 44 page 5.5"x8" journal. This is appropriate for kids 6 and up.  Adults are also welcome to join.  I have two moms currently enrolled.

Art journaling is the best of both worlds; art and words. It is a place to practice different art techniques.  A place to record your thoughts or write a poem. There are no rules, no mistakes, just creativity.

In this workshop we will be learning to make different backgrounds that will be ready to add ephemera (post cards, maps, brochures, tickets), stamps, collage or paint.  We will make pockets, doodle, rip, cut, paint, color, collage to create fun pages for your journal entries.

Here are some examples from a previous workshop:
