Altered books – the art of taking an old unwanted book and altering it into a thing of beauty. Would you like to know how to make your own family heirloom to be handed down through the generations? Let me guide you through all the basics, treating the paper, to gesso or not to gesso, hidden draws, flaps and pockets. This week will be everything you need to set you off on your altered book journey with style.

Kate’s whimsical and fun range of stamps and stencils for Paper Artsy is fantastic for creating smaller projects … tags, greetings cards, trading cards, mini books, and anything else that takes your fancy. We’ll begin with some backgrounds using stencils, then stamp and colour some images in Kate’s preferred loose and carefree style, even add a bit of DuraLar and alcohol ink if we feel like it, and then go crazy making small things! Kate will walk you through projects step-by-step but if you’re feeling creative then feel free to go your own way!

A day of art journal play with Kate’s fun range of stamps and stencils for Paper Artsy. Kate will show you step-by-step how she builds up layer upon layer of colour and texture in her backgrounds using paints, stencils and stamps to create something which looks complex but is actually very achievable! We’ll colour the images in Kate’s preferred loose and carefree style, and then look at imaginative ways to use images on a journal page, and then complete with the magic top layers!

Well the large puzzle and frame has proved to be a massive hit. So much so that I am working on a new one. Many of you have requested this as an in person class, so here it is.

 I will be working on a couple of frames to give you lots of inspiration for your own. We will be working with paint, Dyamond rocks, dusts and boards. The puzzle pieces will be collaged and doodled. Just a warning you won't be able to stop at just one! We will also be creating a stunning journal page with the puzzle stencil. Exciting times! 

Who doesn’t love a sticker?! Stickers are so fun to create, great to trade and swap, or just keep for yourself to use in your art journals, bullet journals, or Travelers Notebooks. They are a great way to add colour and whimsy to decorate pages, add to a letter or envelope, decorate a wrapped pressie, or just add to your everyday journaling. There are hundreds of ways to create stickers and we’ll have a go a quite a few of them … collage, stamped images, inky ones, wordy ones …. the possibilities are endless. We’ll be using the Grafix Double Tack Film to back our stickers, and you can leave the peel off tape on the back until you need a sticker, or peel if off and store it on Sticker paper found in the Travelers Notebook series. This is a fabulous and meaningful way to create on such a tiny scale!

A day full of festive cheer and creativity with Kate and her rather secret Christmas releases that have yet to  be revealed.

Full details to be announced, but you can expect stamps, paints, inks and more
