Home Sweet Home + Giveaway!

posted on: 5.20.2012

Hiya my lovely readers,
I'M HOME! For some odd reason I am SO SO excited to be back in my craft room because I feel I create the best in it. I just have so much more than I could ever bring to a crop in here which gives me all those capabilities to create more {do i make sense}. Anyways, I LOVED the crop as usual! It was so so fun and I got to catch up with some old friends :)

I don't want to make this post to long because I have no pictures and word posts are UMM BORING!!!!! But I do have a lovely giveaway which amazing Nat from NathaliesStudios is giving away!



One lucky commenter will receive a FULL online class by Nat! In this Über*Media Acrylic Paint Workshop you will learn how to use Acrylic Paints in your Scrapbooking and Mixed Media Projects! This class is a reference guide for you, showing all kinds of possibilities and techniques using Acrylic Paints with different surfaces and media.

Full Version = 8 WEEKS which includes about 100 techniques in 5 hours of video material, 14 Art Journal Tutorials, and 2 step-by-step Scrapbooking/Mixed Media Tutorials which are downloadable. This costs 77 US-Dollars (about 59 EUR). More info here!

This is an AMAZING giveaway {HUH} Thanks so so much Nat!!! If you want to learn how to use acrylic paints I would TOTALLY suggest buying admission to her class here. If you do purchase the class and happen to win the giveaway there will be no refunds. It will be given to somebody else. SO all you gotta do is leave a comment below telling me what your scrapbook style is! Mine is modern and bright!

  1. What a fabulous giveaway especially since I just started taking up acrylics and mixed media. I would have to say my scrapbooking style is mostly grunge and shabby chic right now. We all know how today its one thing and tomorrow it may be another. Thanks for an opportunity to take this class.

  3. Wow what an awesome give away, right now my style is very ecclectic. Always deceptively simple looking with lots of empty space (am not good at the cluttered heaps on a page look). Lots of hidden work so to speak. Clean lines, am really getting into clustering and hand making flowers at the moment as well.

  6. What an awesome giveaway! Thanks Drew ;)
    My style is a bit bi-polar, or eclectic...really depends on my mood. I'm being drawn more into art journaling so it's getting more 'artsy.'

  19. I love Nat's bold style in her mixed media, and would LOVE to take her Acrylics class! Thank you to her for the prize, and to you for hosting the giveaway! My scrapbook style is ever-evolving. I've been told it's "out-of-the-box", but I think of it more as eclectic. I am trying to incorporate more of my painty art journaling into my layouts.

  20. What a fab giveaway. I would say my style is a little grunge, and a little shabby and a whole lot of me. Love adding little mini books and art to paperbag albums. But give me time, I am still a work in progress!!!

  21. Great giveaway ! Well, it is difficult for me to tell my scrapbook style because I don't have one in particular but currently I love pastel colours and shabby style ! Have a nice week and thank you for the chance to win ;)

    ReplyDelete
  22. My style is still not completely defined, and I think it will never stop evolving. But for the moment I think it is a bit grungy, vintage and very Mixed Media, but sometimes also very clean and modern. Depends on my mood.
    I like Nathalie her style very much. Thanks to both of you for this super gift.

  23. Hi Drew,I am a scrapbooker/cardmaker that's style is however forever changing. I guess though the common thing is i love using cheaper products and making them into something special. I would really love to take Nats class as i have a stash of paints that just never get used and i would love to be inspired and learn techniques that i can pass on to the clients i support. Suzanne

  25. Fabulous giveaway! So would be thrilled to win!
    I think my style is um... experimental, mixed media, "get your hands dirty" type of thing, cause I love to use inks, paints, gesso and mists.

  26. what a great giveaway! my style is probably mostly a bit shabby but i am always interested in trying new styles and often something will stay with me after giving them a go.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Sure know what you mean about being at home, I don't usually get much done at crops for that same reason{what I always want to use is home so I wait to do it!} Anyway, sounds like a great giveaway. I'd say I'm mostly clean and simple with a little shabby chic thrown in the mix. Thanks for the chance Drew!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Wow, always wanted to take a class like this.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I would say my style is Vintage. However, right now I'm doing more art journaling and painting than anything else. This giveaway would help me learn more about working with mixed media. Thanks for the opportunity to win!

  44. I have been a fan of Nic Howard for a while and now I have found you. You both do a lot of layering and if that is a style, then that is my style right now. I have paints, but am a little nervous about using them.

    ReplyDelete

  49. Wow!!! Great giveaway! I'd say my style changes with my mood. Sometimes it's shabby chic, sometimes it's grungy, sometimes it's elegant and sometimes it's minimalist. It sort of depends on what the project is and who it's for too. Thanks for the chance to win Drew!

  56. Ohh, what a nice give away. :) This is a work shop I've been thinking about taking.

    So my style.... I like to try a lot of different styles. That's one of the great things about this hobby - You can pick the goodies out of the bag. :) But even though I like to try different styles, I always want to make my layouts colorful and happy - so that's my style, mixed with a lot of paints, mists and masks.
