Find Your Voice Blog Hop & Giveaway.

 The Find Your Voice Summer Storytelling Workshop kicked off today and to celebrate we're having a blog hop with lots of giveaways! We're going to have a blast this summer and we really hope you play along! 

This workshop is about finding your storytelling voice. You are an awesome person with amazing stories, so this summer we're going to work together to find the most genuine and authentic way for you to tell those stories. 

This workshop is for everyone! You definitely don't need to be a scrapbooker or paper-crafter to play along. We'll be telling stories through pictures, photographs, social media, prose, and more. The only thing you need is a willingness to become the author of your own story and the courage to step outside of your comfort zone. 


What Find Your Voice Means to Me:

I am so passionate about this course because better telling my story, our story, is why I do all of this in the first place.  I love playing with paint and paper, but a page means so much more to me when I record a real memory, an everyday moment or special milestone, in a way that goes beyond the basic facts.  The story gives my scrapbook meaning and is a way for me to slow down time.  I never want to worry about keeping my children little.  I would rather watch them grow and do my best to record it along the way.

Join us this summer as we work together to find the most genuine and authentic way for you to tell your stories the way you want them to be told. We’ll be telling stories through pictures, photographs, social media, prose, and more. The only thing you need is a willingness to become the author of your own story and the courage to step outside of your comfort zone.

Beyond Grey - X marks the spot

I am hosting this fortnight's challenge over at Beyond Grey again.    I planned a straight-forward challenge this fortnight, so you can adapt to whatever you are celebrating or in the mood for. I love paper crafting, but adding a different texture can take a project to the next level. For this challenge try to incoorporate stitching as one of the main design elements of your project.  Head on over to Beyond Grey to see what the other designer's have come up for the challenge.

I used this new 5th&Frolic patterned paper from Dear Lizzy as a template. I let the arrows spill off the paper and repeated it to highlight the title. The burlap feather embellishment came pre-stitched.  I am also in love with the gold glitter and gold foil letter stickers.  They just feel so luxurious, and perfect for the pirate theme I think.

Link up your stitched projects here too (direct links only, please).
