I did it!


I have been back from Artfest for at least a couple or more weeks, but am finally making time to post about it. It was a fantastic experience, spent with great friends from all over the place. I look forward to these times to reunite with Artfest friends and also members of my Pirate Brethren (you know who you are)! It always goes by so fast, and I was still prepping to vend at Artfest for the first time, so I missed out on some activities, and hanging out with people as much as I would have liked. This was my first time selling my wares and it was just fantastic. Thank you all for the support before and during the show, buying my goods, and all the encouraging words. It was great to have people ask if I was teaching, and if they could buy my stuff online. All in due time! Many of you asked if I have an ETSY site, which I do plan on getting up and running, so please check back. It will have the same types of items, handmade artist journals, repurposed books, hand printed goodies, mixed media art, and reproductions of my journal pages. In other good news, I will be vending again at Journalfest this fall, so if you are going, please check out what I have to offer! I have a passion for visual journaling, and a lot of what I do and make reflects that. More to come... eye opening classes that I took at Artfest!

  2. Thanks Melanie! We are getting ready to move to Boulder, so the ETSY plans are on hold, but I hope to get back to it.

  3. Reading and looking (and drooling over) and reading and looking. Just (re-?)discovered you thanks to a pin and blog post from Gina. Seeing your work makes me long for a journaling party and miss the days of Artfest. I only had three years of that wondrous event. At any rate, you have a new fan. :)

  4. Thanks Shelly! I miss Artfest and Journalfest so much too. A lot of my art friends are out of state, and I really miss journalling with friends!
