One blog reader will win a spot in Organize Your Creative Space from simplify 101.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
- Do you feel like you spend all of your creative time sifting through creative clutter?
- Does it feel like as soon as you haul out your supplies, it’s time to put them away again?
- Are you regularly surprised to find supplies or tools you forgot you had? Or worse, are you regularly frustrated when you can’t put your hands on the things you are sure you have?
- Do you feel like your creative space (or the lack of it) zaps your creativity?
If you answered “yes” to any of these, there is a better way. Aby Garvey at simplify 101 has created an online workshop -- Organize Your Creative Space – to help you find the perfect balance between creativity and organization. In this workshop, Aby will help you pull together a space that looks like you, thinks like you and allows you to enjoy your creative work even more.

One blog reader will win a spot in Grammar-Free Journaling, a new workshop from Big Picture Classes and Angie Lucas. Angie is a word-smith extraordinaire, so I'll let her tell you about this class herself. Take it away, Lucas! |
A WORD FROM ANGIE: I can't thank my pal, Cathy, enough for letting me share a quick guest post about a little something I like to call "grammar-free journaling."
What does that mean?
Well, it means I've gathered 12 fun strategies for writing journaling for scrapbook pages in new and exciting ways—with absolutely no paragraphs required! You can forget about sentence structure, paragraph flow, punctuation, and the dreaded dangling participle—and still tell great stories. (Excuse me, sir, but your participle appears to be dangling.) Instead, you'll be journaling in checklists, spreadsheets, pie charts, lists, quizzes, and even a bit of painless poetry.
Here's one of my favorite layout examples from the workshop, which uses washi tape in a graph that tells the story of my cute daughter's slow and steady growth pattern.
Join me in class and I promise you'll be inspired to tell stories you've been meaning to tell in unique ways—and you'll find new stories to tell that you wouldn't have discovered or told otherwise.
This workshop may make you laugh. It will make you write (but rarely more than a paragraph at a time). And it could even make you cry! But for once, these won’t be tears of frustration. They’ll be tears of joy that you tried something new with your journaling and managed to write something beautiful and true. Or, they may be tears of ocular irritation because you got eraser crumbs in your eye. (Yes, you’ll be inspired to do THAT much writing.)
All right, enough with the tears.
Who is This Angie Person? Angie Lucas is the former managing editor of Simple Scrapbooks magazine, where she worked alongside Cathy (from 993 miles away!) from 2004 to 2009. She’s now the Editorial Director at BigPictureClasses.com. She's a lifelong word nerd, an Arrested Development fan, and a two-time half-marathon runner who didn't lose a single pound in either attempt. Cathy Zielske is her fitness hero.
