If you missed my Creative Jems Journaling Teleclass, the class was recorded and the recording is now available. Here are comments from some of the people that attended the class:

Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your teleclass. I was hesitate because, how much can you say about journaling. Wow! I was blown away. You had so many great ideas and your enthusiasm is contagious. A hour well spent that really got my creative juices going. I started journaling a year ago (to vent, work thru, self-analyze) and added stickers and jell pen doodling a while back BUT now I have a lot of territory to explore.

I hadn't even thought of all those ways of journaling that you mentioned, and so many of the things that you said really sparked my imagination, like using newspaper/telephone book/gesso pages, and the writing in a spiral or the wild woman hair (I loved that!).

Really, just everything that you said pointed into one direction..."Record Your Life", in any way you can possibly imagine, in all of it's blessed and Gorey details. I really love that, and all of your ideas, because you made journaling sound so fun again, such a cool outlet and a source of pride. That's EXACTLY what I was looking for, too

If you would like to purchase the recording, it is available for only $7.99. You will find it at http://artellawordsandart.com/ZuraBethLedbetter.html.
