Welcome friends!  

 

Here's a little bit about me!

​

I live in the UK, in Derbyshire, in the beautiful Peak District with my husband( my I.T manager!!) and family. I am a Mum of three teenagers and our gorgeous dog!

​

I discovered Mixed media Art Journaling years ago and have been totally swept up by it! I genuinely believe that art journaling is great for mental well being as it gives a great outlet for what's on your mind. Just spending 10 minutes a day being creative is very grounding. 

​

I love bright colours- especially rainbows, they do feature a lot in my work! I also enjoy working with neutral colours too! In fact any colour goes!!!! 

I also enjoy crochet- a lot of which is rainbow themed( we have many blankets!!! ) and I love sewing and gardening too!

​

I am super excited to be designing my own range of very popular art journaling supplies with Funky Fossil UK and release new products several times a year.

These are available from my website too.

​

I am also excited to be teaching through Natalie May Scrapbooking's website- the classes are taught online and are recorded live through a private Facebook group. 

​

I am also running a range of in person classes, starting in Chesterfield, UK. Please see this page for details.

​

I hope you enjoy exploring the website, look out for  YouTube and Instagram , as well as the on line shop and online courses.

​

I also have a subscription area on this website called Art Journal Lovers and for £3.99 a month you get access to lots of content - including monthly downloads, extra video content, weekly live journaling sessions and sneak peeks at new releases🤭. 

​

Please sign up for free membership of the website to be kept up to date with new updates, and there's a free digital download for every member when you sign up. These are on the Members Freebies page There are some free classes open to all members too.
