Art Journal Summer School Is Here Again!!

 

Yes, it's that time of year again! Art Journal Summer School is coming up and I am thrilled and excited to announce that I will be one of the guest teachers again! And look at this amazing line up, so proud to be part of that! :)

 

What is Art Journal Summer School (AJSS)?

AJJS is hosted by Bloknote Academy. The goal is to keep you journaling over summer, not only at home but even during your vacation. We all know how hard that is, if only because of all the supplies you need to schlepp around while you're traveling. But here is the answer!

A limited amount of supplies, fitting in a toiletry bag is all you have to bring.

All teachers use merely the same supplies but all in their own way, combination and style. The colors may differ (which means you can use your own favorites) and maybe the brands, but the basics are all more or less the same.

The course is spread out over 10 weeks. There are 14 teachers bringing you 21 short video lessons (about 12-20 min) filled with tips and tricks and instructions, showing you how to create beautiful art journal pages with limited supplies whether you're on the go or sitting in your garden enjoying the lovely weather.

We don't want you to spent hours on the computer, we want you to journal!

How does it work?

Click HERE to go to the store where you can find the supply list and more info. Then sign up and join the fun!!

It doesn't matter if you're a beginner, maybe even haven't done any journaling before or if you're an advanced journaler. Whether you want journaling to be part of your daily life or just document your vacation. This course is meant to inspire and motivate ALL of you to journal over summer!!

Course starts on July 1. There will be a new video up every Wednesday and Saturday for ten weeks. Lessons are downloadable. There will be a closed FB group to share and discuss and get to know your fellow students (but only if you want too ;)). Fun, fun, fun!!

And even more fun if you can join for free, right??

I'm going to give away one spot to one lucky winner!

How can you win you ask? That's easy!

Leave a comment here, tell me why you think you should win and why you would love to take this course. Or, share this post on FB (tag me so I know you did!). Or go to my IG feed (BirgitKoopsen - follow me if you don't already) and repost my Art Journal Summer School picture (use #AJSS16Birgit) so I know that you did. Or do all of this and double, double, double your chances to win.

I will pick and announce a winner by June 1. at noon (CET).

And know what? You can just go ahead and register for the course if you want to take it anyway, that's another chance to win and if you win we will refund you your payment! Pretty awesome right?!

AND… if you sign up before June 1. you will get a HUGE early bird discount. Pay € 75,= instead of € 95,=!!

So, don't waste any time! Do it, now!! :)
