finished online class sample

Finished! I'm very happy with the way this turned out. Each signature wrap can actually be a cover if desired, and could have been bound as an individual book. The vintage pink beads didn't make it on... they'll have to wait for the next book. I opted for buttons instead.  I also ended up removing a couple signatures. I love big, heavy books, but this one outgrew the spine, so I removed two, and have a head start on the next book.

Hi DJ,

I want to take your class...please add me to your list if you have a list. I signed up for your newsletters but I have not received any so I want to be sure I am included.

Thank you for the texture photos too!

Will you be teaching Photoshop again soon? I just bought Photoshop Elements 8 but am clueless...I will be teaching myself until I find a good class!

Thanks!

Elise

I've been away from your blog for much too long. But my move in now complete (well, except for the un-packing) and I'm looking forward to finding some time to backtrack through your lucious postings. Can't wait to hear more about this on-line class.

[DJ]

Thank you everyone for the kind words and well wishes, and for the compliments on the book! I'm feeling a bit better, it's just way too slow, but I'm trying to be patient and rest.

Several people have asked about a supply list, and I will get that posted as soon as I can.

Jan, you asked about the information being left up longer than 4 weeks. You will definitely have extra time with access to the information. I don't have all the details worked out yet, but you will have at least a few weeks extra. I'm also very good about responding quickly to questions and won't leave you stranded :-)

Gail, you are correct about the mailing list. You will receive all the info if you are on the mailing list, and I will also post here, on my site, and on facebook. I'll put a link on the side of this blog too, as well as create a web page with all the info.

Maria, the pages could be for anything you like. They could be used for journalling, scrapbooking, collage... anything you want. I'll show you how I create them, including painting, adding texture, transparencies, fabric, lace, paper and images.

Hope that helps! I'll keep you posted!

[Maria]

That is one fabulous book! I love all the details. Are the pages for art work later, or something done during class? Thanks.

[Elena Nosyreva]

DJ,
Hope you are feeling better.

The book is absolutely gorgeous! Looking forward to learn all the secrets.
If it is possible, could you please release the supply list?

Very excited for the class- your book is unbelievably beautiful!

[Laurie]

I'm excited about the class. Maybe it will be the nudge I need to finish the book I worked on at Art and Soul in Portland. I hope you will do a video showing how you go about your decoritive machine stitching. That was one area you didn't have time to show us in class. Hope you are doing better!!

[Jan]

This book is incredibly beautiful. I cannot imagine learning all the techniques in four weeks. I do hope you'll keep it open for students longer than that for those of us who are slow learners :-). Could you release the supply list (even if it's not completed)? I want to begin to "hunt and gather" in anticipation.

[Elizabeth Woodford]
