After a weekend of virtually disconnecting from technology (and surviving) I put a focus on my Life List...Bucket List. I have had this list for as long as I can remember. Feel free to see mine HERE. Although these are public I have many that are private on this list too. I mark off items as I go along and every now and again add to the list. I have made it my personal goal to mark these items but but realize that dreams are for sharing. So.......if you do not have a list it is a great time to do it. If you have one, it may be time to up-date it.
Last night I started a whole new journal LIVE with you and imbedded those dreams (ones to do and completed) on the first page. Here is my first page in that book:
MATERIALS LIST: Paint & Decoupage (DecoArt), Template (The Crafter's Workshop), Charcoal Pencil, Ink (Daler Rowney & Dr. Martins), Stamp Ink (Marvy Heritage), Paint Markers (Montana Paint), Stickles
If you missed it LIVE you can see the recording HERE:
The great thing about Mixed Media Mondays is it allows me to share one of my dreams every day....."Have a studio at home that I produce art & inspire". I hope this project got you thinking about your dreams.......they are not silly. They are not pipe dreams. They are yours.......write them down, share them, watch them grow....
“Today is going to be a great day....If you’re reading this right now, SMILE, you’re alive. The possibilities ahead of you are infinite, it’s true. Think about this and let it inspire you. Your life is for smiling, imagining, exploring, learning, hugging, sharing, caring, helping, and healing. Choose to do these things. Choose to make the most of the gift you’ve been given. Wake up every morning in such a way that the negativity committee lingering in the back of your mind says, “Oh crap, not another happy day!”

Thoroughly enjoyed your "Life List" video this Tuesday morning! I am definitely going to transfer my dreams from my head to paper. Thanks for the inspiration, Tracy!

Oh forgot to ask, do you have a list of required items before the broadcast or do you fly by the seat of your pants? LOL

I love how you link this up because I missed it and so want to have a go at this. It looks amazing love the colors and the stencil you used is so pretty..
Just got to think about what I am going to put it on.. I will have to buy myself a journal its not something I have ever had or even thought about having till now.. Now I think this is a must have purchase next time I am in town.. I have also ordered a craft mat so I can get messy with paint.
Thanks for all the great information I am so new to using all this, its so great to have all this live to see, step by step.
Thanks
Sandy :)

Didn't think I would make it but so glad I did...fractured rib and all...I too have had a bucket list long before they were ever popular...what a great way to keep them in mind without everyone knowing what is there unless they really look closely...Love it...love it ...love it.

Yes you do Jean and I will stay on you until you do!

Sorry about your rib Dorothy! So glad you enjoyed the project and the show! I cannot wait to see what you do with your list!

Thank you Sandy! I try to recap from every LIVE show so you can see what I created with. I am so looking forward to you sharing your work with me. It does not take much at all to get started! Glad you are joining me!

AWESOME! Everyone Monday I try to inspire you to create and then share with me!

Elize I TRY to give a heads up of supplies I will be using but the entire shore is really done on the fly. There is limited to no prep work and I really do create by the seat of my pants. I try to show that we tend to put so much thought into it and sometimes that takes away the creativity. Everything is done in less than 1.5 hours and I make sure to share some of my favorite tools with you. Stay tuned for more projects! Glad you like it!
