I usually don't post stuff about other DS designers on my personal blog, but this is something I just have to share. SherrieJD is hosting an art journaling class at DeviantScrap, starting November 14. The class is called Countdown 2 Christmas and will cover all things art journaling - digi and paper. There will be loads of information and inspiration and Sherrie is including a huge exclusive kit and a $10 coupon to her shop!!! If you sign up right now, while its on sale, its that makes the class almost free!!! How crazy cool it that?!?!? So head over to the shop and sign up HERE!
The Countdown 2 Christmas journaling class will prepare you for documenting the upcoming season with a head start in November.
Are you a digital scrapper only? Do you like to make hybrid projects? Or would you like to get your hands messy? Do you prefer to document everything on your blog? No matter what media used or skill level, this class will be packed with fun, colorful and inspirational information for creating a lifetime keepsake.
For $25.00, (but on sale for $20.00 until November 14) there will be an amazing amount of instruction and a huge dose of inspiration. With the amount of digital goodies included and the coupon to my store, the class practically pays for itself!

* printable quick page for those that want to print and assemble as we go. These pages will be provided from my own art journal pages prior to my addition of titles, pictures and journaling.
* ideas on incorporating ephemera from our daily holiday schedules
* have a special request? We’ll have a section in the forum for suggestions and requests. We all share different traditions and holidays and I will accommodate as many requests as I can.
Bonus Personal Touch
* For those that provide me high-resolution images (uploaded to my personal box.net account), I will create a PDF “booklet” that can be printed two-sided and bound with a 3-hole pamphlet stitch (instructions will be included). This feature is for those that would really love to participate, but are just overwhelmed by the process of pulling it all together. The PDF can then be saved on CD/DVD and taken to your local print service for printing. This service can be provided during any stage during the process, giving the option of printing before December 1 and allowing the journaling to be done by hand or the option of printing after everything has been completed and the finished journal can be printed at your leisure.
CLASS registration will remain open through December 31. The forums will remain available for a minimum of one year. BUT, we will have a bunch of interaction, inspiration and fun, so the sooner
