Here are a few process shots...
Here's the next phase...
I also wanted to share with you an idea I had recently for keeping track of my various and sundry workshop endeavors. I LOVE taking workshops! The problem is, I am taking so many right now, there is no way I can get them all done at the same time! Sooooo, I decided to make a table to keep track of all the lessons that I want to do...
Having this list alleviates the stress of trying to keep it all in my brain (not gonna happen!); plus it's like having my own little playground! When I get ready to make a page in my journal, and need some inspiration, look at all the choices I have! Yeayyyy!!!
Do you take a lot of workshops? If you do, how do you keep track of them? Do you have a system that works for you? I'd love to hear about it!
Thanks so much for visiting on this day 15 of the 30-day blogalong with Effy! I really appreciate you!
Oh, and don't forget - you can head on over to Effy's blog to check out what all of the participants of the 30-day blogalong are doing!

What an interesting process and page - I like how the face turned out - profile but not. Once life settles down I want to spend some time most days catching up on all the workshops I've signed up for and haven't finished. I think I'll give your system a try - goodness knows my brain won't hold it all!
How fun ... can't wait to see what you make with this!! And loving how you keep them all organized!!!!
I always enjoy seeing the process of your pages. I, too, am a workshop junkie and am quite intrigued by your chart; in particular the items on it. Moonshine? Animal Spirit Guides? Are these workshops you're taking? Do tell!
love your found elements -- and your organization chart -- WOW! I am so behind in so many workshops and so frozen about what to do first/next/etc., that making a chart seems like just the thing. Thanks!
I LOVE that you went with the little elephant! What a great spread. I love your chart. That's the sort of thing I used to do. Well done!
I love pulled paintings!
This one is especially whimsical.
How do you find time for all the workshops?!
This post is awesiome, but what I like the most is your chart. Such a great idea.
Love the colors and the little elephant! Thank you for showing how they appeared!
Love your Spreadsheet and how you keep it all organized. I am going to have to try something like that for my workshops AND include blogpost, swap and design team commitments too.
Thanks for sharing this process Michelle, it's very intriguing! I wonder if I would have "seen" anything after covering a page with paint etc... I actually get stuck right at the beginning of the process, often not knowing what colours to use! Love the idea of keeping track of courses, I think I need to do that even though I am only taking 2 a the moment. TFS!
Are there really 24 lessons in Letter Love? I like the elephant.
I love what you found and created in your journal page i think it is telling you that your strength is greater than the elephant ! Your list is awesome i should do one of those for myself Thanks for sharing this !
Love your results. I have no imagination when looking for hidden objects! Love your bright colors and clean lines? No, I don't have a system to keep track of my classes, and my brain is not happy about that.
I just love your pulled painting, so imaginative and I love your little elephant. I have a soft spot for them.
Oh my you are organised. I need something like this. I'm off now to see what I can do about it.

Hi Michelle,
I'm so glad you did some pull art work, love when you do that and hope to see more. I really need to give this a try. LOVE LOVE the results of yours.
Awesome chart for your classes!
I have a question about the classes. Do you keep track of all the passwords/links for these and your past classes. That's what I need to do, I'm visiting some from last year and in the spring and can't always remember the links/Passwords? Thanks!
I am thinking of writing a chart to show all the new ideas to try that I haven't before. Like your pulled art and many other things you do and others do. If I have a chart in front of me maybe that will motivate me more to actually do these things. what do you think?
I also want a chart to show that each day I will work on certain challenges and types of art I do so to balance it out over the week. Like you I forget because they are adding up. I haven't done a Glue It Tuesday post in weeks because I forget and then wait for the next week and forget again.
Hoping when kids go back soon I will be more orgnazied.
Thanks so much for sharing and any more help/tips you can give me on this.
Oh, I know a question for you. Do you put a time limit on each page you make so you don't keep reworking it or rethinking your ideas?
Happy Day 15 but really 16, I'm late,lol.
