Turn the piles of children's artwork, photos, and school keepsakes into a meaningful, one-of-a-kind art journal. In this class, you'll learn how to sort and organize your collection of kid memorabilia and transform it into beautifully layered journal pages. We'll create custom backgrounds using your materials, add thoughtful details, and incorporate simple text elements to tell your family's story. This class is perfect for parents and grandparents who want to preserve memories in a creative, meaningful way-without feeling overwhelmed by the boxes of "keep forever" papers. No art experience needed-just bring a sketchbook and your collection of drawings, notes, paintings, and photos. All other supplies are provided.
Leave with a handcrafted book you'll be proud to share-and a creative system for honoring memories without the clutter.
Fee: $220.00

Carrie’s Classes

More than just a form of artistic expression, Carrie’s creative process has served as a profound means of personal transformation. She views her artwork as a mirror to her inner world, navigating and processing emotions, thoughts, and experiences. Embracing the freedom to declutter her mind and surrender to the creative energy, she naturally gravitates towards utilizing the materials at her disposal - be it paint, paper, reclaimed wood or ephemera - in order to craft each unique piece. Through art, Carrie has managed to transform moments of uncertainty into opportunities for growth and self-discovery.
