bit.ly/2r2MxPy What is Creative JumpStart? It’s a one of kind online event that is all about jump starting your creativity put together each year by Nat Kalbach. So exciting to be a part of such a playful way to kick off 2020!
It’s 31 downloadable videos, each from a different artist, in January. It’s like a creative buffet of different styles, approaches and fun! You’ll get a new downloadable video each day throughout the month of January.
The theme this year is Super Power and I’m sharing a technique using stencils that came about because of my Super Power of making mistakes. Mistakes take me down roads I don’t plan on but lead me to new ways to use my supplies.
Each video is about 10 minutes long, so creativity and play can fit into even your busy schedule!
The early bird sale is happening right now so if you’d like a new video every day in January, this is the best price! What a steal for inspiration from so many different artists!
Creative JumpStart bit.ly/2r2MxPy is regularly $60 but the earlier you join the better your discount!
December 2nd until 11:59PM EST $40
December 3rd 12:01AM EST until December 6th 11:59PM EST $45
December 7th 12:01AM EST until December 31st 11:59PM EST $50
January 1st 12:01AM EST $60

I’m Carolyn Dube - a mixed media art adventurer who takes the intimidation out of supplies so that you can find freedom through creativity. Play with every color of the rainbow, avoid rules whenever possible, and let the little kid inside of you free through art.
Want to play? Want to know specific ways to let go and have fun? Join the fun in my free mixed media workshop Permission to Play bit.ly/2sdGx2j
You can find me designing stencils for StencilGirl Products, teaching in person and online workshops and sharing the message of O.O.P.S. here on YouTube and on the blog, aColorfulJourney.com
What does O.O.P.S. stand for? It stands for Outstanding Opportunities Presenting Suddenly.
Those “failures” and “mistakes” that we so harshly criticized ourselves about actually became true gifts as soon as you start saying O.O.P.S. Try saying Oops in an angry tone. It makes it even more silly!
I just can’t take myself seriously when I say Oops which is just what I needed to play. I began to play, to have fun, and to embrace all of my “mistakes”.

Creating the layered look of stacked speech bubbles is easy peasy! The trick is the first layer, and after that, its just filling in the space! This is just one way to use a stencil, there are a gaboodle of other ways you can use them.
