• I enjoy creating and I especially love learning a skill like paper folding that I can then make immediately and yet expand upon to meet specific needs.  Creating is a form of self care!  So take this notebook in your purse for doodling while waiting somewhere and lessen anxiety.  I also keep a pocket notebook in the car console for when I need to make a quick note.  You could turn it into a gift with quotes, photos, and collage for your friend, or even slip a business card into the pocket and your label on the back to give away as a business promotion!  Or do all of the above!.
• Bring a sheet of scrapbook paper, plus letter size copy paper, a stapler, pair of scissors, and a quality glue stick to the first lesson.  A ruler is helpful too!  Practice first with scrap paper to learn the basic paper fold with me, then check out the other lessons to learn creative ideas to expand on the simple mini notebook..
• I am an artist on Instagram, and I enjoy showing simple crafting projects that anyone can do.  My deepest desire is to share what I make, and I believe the work of creating is my act of love to friends and family.   I enjoy teaching creativity, and I embrace the idea of using what you have on hand.    .
• The class project is to make your own 3x4.5 inch pocket notebook.  Fill it with plain, lined, or mixed pages for a book signature and staple the cover.  Share it with me in the class Project and Resource section!  I’d love to encourage you and for others to be inspired by your work.  Remember: the work of creating is an act of love.  Take care of yourself and create!.
