Happy Fresh Brand 

New Year!!!

And a Giveaway!!!

Since it's still January

figured I'd grab the

chance to say it again....HA!

And when I say Fresh...

I made a few 

New Resolutions to try some Art Mediums 

 that I hadn't tried before, and

already started teaching

myself stamp carving....

I didn't say I was good at it, but man is it fun!!

And along the lines of Fresh....

And to Start the New Year 

off with a 

Brand New Internet Shop

and it's Canadian!!!

Woo Hoo!!!

Meet Deanna Jinjoe's

Brand New Shop

A New Day Art Studio!!!!

Deanne Jinjoe some of you already know

from my ATC Swaps that she's participated

in here on Birdnuts Mixed Media.

She's a Fabulous Artist and 

Journal Maker to boot!

I've had the great pleasure of receiving some

of her lovely Hand Made Journals and

what a treat!!!

She's listed a Variety of her Handmade Journals

in her New Shop and at a Great Price!!

And what a Great Variety of papers she's

using to cover them with!!!

And even giving you the history behind making them!

Deanna's also listed Fabulous other

Goodie in her New Shop!!

Deanna's Listing Lots of Fabulous

Big Name Products like 

7 Gypsies and Dylusions

and Tim Holtz and Ranger Products

all at Great Prices compared to our

Local Shops and Outlets 

but she's also bringing to Canadian's

some of the Products that aren't so

easy to get up here!

I've looked all over here for these!!

Aqua Markers!!!

And Deanna has a Great Assortment of them

to choose from!

Along with other Paints and Stains!

But I have to say, one of my Favourites

that Deanna is currently listing in her shop

are Moleskins!!!

And guess what, there's a Sale!!!

And a Great Assortment of Styles!

Those of you who know me know I

LOVE Moleskins!

I have a particular love for the Mini's

I think they're Brilliant, quick and easy 

to use, the mini's lend you some quick

journaling and art time, but the big

pay off of having a completed

wonderful journal in no time!

They also lend themselves to be as

complex and detailed as the larger sizes.

I love working with them!

So Please Drop By

Deanna's Brand New Shop

And to 

Celebrate!!!
