Bohemian Bliss Mixed Media Journal Book Class Intro

An Artsy Letter!

I was wondering if you might like to take on an artsy letter challenge.

An artsy Letter Idea

The next time you have the opportunity to write a real letter to someone why not “draw them a letter”.....do whatever you are moved to do. You can take a cue from me and draw your face and write the letter within the body of the person or begin doodling and writing words and thoughts in talk bubbles. Before you know it you'll have composed an entire letter much to the delight of the recipient of your joyful little missive! In case you're wondering what media i've used it's just micron pens and gel pens. I don't know if you can see but i'm flying my freak flag above my head!

You can post your letter or decorated envelopes for all of us to see!
Love, Violette xoxo

Here is the video of my studio - some of you may or may not have seen it before. Hope you like it!

Appreciation!

A couple years ago I was experiencing some dark times in my life. I was desperate for something. Didn't know what it was till I had a talk with God. He told me to paint. That was very funny. I didn't paint. I had one paint brush & a couple bottles of clumpy paint in my cellar.
I googled many sites & just couldn't find my niche. Finally at my lowest point I found Violette! Here was this zany off the wall artist. Who loves glitter and bright colors. Who was so loving to a complete stranger… Continue

You Gotta Be Kidding Me...

Ok ~~ Between The Dog getting herself into more trouble with her Vet, the house getting some odds and ends being done all over the place, and just staying ahead of the Rush of the Holidays, it suddenly dawned on me, that Christmas is something like less than A Week Away..!! Why hasn't anyone told me this before now?! I'm cruisin' along thinkin' I had more time to finish projects that I felt were certain to be Fabulous for friends, and then there were also those other Baking Goodies that were goi… Continue

Jazzed up writer's notebook

Yesterday, I took the day off and worked on a project that I'm going to give my hubby for Christmas. I had him locked out of our office all afternoon - I drove him crazy because he wants to know what I am doing - lol!!! I am working on a creative writing notebook for him so that he can keep all of his ideas organized. (I'm going to make one for myself too). I've been getting ideas online of what kinds of things to put in a writer's notebook, but they've all been very plain looking so I wanted to… Continue

Weekend In Sight ~

>> So now the Big Day is over, and now the madness of the Holiday Shopping Season is here <<

There are so many things that look tempting in the advertisements -- so many "Good Price" type of things. So many choices, so many colors, and the whole idea to just spend, spend, spend is starting to get in full swing.

ACK! - What to do when the budget sez the most per person is something like, $30?? Tops!! -- Anything more, and the checking account goes into a nosedive...What if you think… Continue
