I have been busy painting and filming the second take (all 3 hours of it!) for the Star Book tutorial. Keeping up with 4 different social media platforms is a full-time thing, and I am still learning how to balance it all! 

In the sprit of staying consistent, I am here to share an update of some of my newest little paintings... most fun one can have doing homework! If you'd like to take one home with you, please visit my Etsy shop!

Do you know the rabbit hole? A Star Book Update!

Yes! the place you fall into when you are exploring something new and interesting... that feels like a moving target?

I have fallen into one with regards to the Star Book I promised to teach you make... 

Let me give you an update: I filmed about 3hours of instruction only to find out, after it was all ready to be edited that 1. the camera is kind of out of focus for several segments, 2. my 'startup disk is full' 3. a MacBook Air (beloved as it might be) cannot be given more memory, 4. a MacBook Pro is currently outside the budget.

BUT! since this is all about creativity, I got thinking in creative ways... You will still have to wait a little longer to get the how-to for this project. In the meantime, here's another version of the Star Book you are one day going to make!

P.S. The Free Printable PDF -- the one with all the little characters you see below is ready! And you can download it here:

Star Book Adventures -- Do you want me to teach you how to make one?

5/1/2014

I always want to wait until things are 'ready to go' ... meaning perfect. So I bump up against so many obstacles: the pictures aren't that good, the craftsmanship isn't up to par, there is no cohesion, it isn't ready to share publicly... etc. etc.etc. By the time I attend to a quarter of the 'concern,' I am bored with the idea and onto something else.

So here is a wonderful idea that has bigger plans for itself: but I am NOT going to wait until everything is in place. This part is done, and it is plenty good enough to get started with the sharing. 

I want to make a free downloadable page and a video tutorial to  help you make your own star book. Would you like that? Leave me a comment and I will certainly feel more inspired to keep going toward the 'bigger plans'!
