Sketchbook Revival Challenge - April 11th - 21st FREE to Join!

 

Welcome to the Sketchbook Revival Challenge!
April 11–21, 2026

11 Days. 30+ Hands-On Sessions. One Revitalizing Creative Experience.

I have been invited to be one of the Teachers on Sketchbook Revival Challenge, and I am really excited to share my lesson with you over the coming weeks.

This is the 9th year of Sketchbook Revival.  For eleven inspiring days, you’ll be guided by an incredible group of 30+ practicing fellow artists, sharing some of their favorite ways to explore their creativity in a sketchbook.

What makes this challenge different

This isn’t about keeping up, It is about showing up, with encouraging guides and a welcoming community, to help you focus and follow through, and creative permission to make this experience work for you.

Whether you join every day or even for a few, the challenge will meet you where you are so it’s easy and exciting to sit down, get started, and keep going.

What you’ll explore

There will be a mix of styles, materials and subjects you’ll have full permission to experiment, practice and play with, both materials, techniques, subjects and styles. So bring what you have and let it work for you.

When you join using my link and purchase the VIP Pass, I will also be giving you the Sketchbook Revival Bonus Bundle, the link for the resources will be sent to your email address: 

This is a fantastic resource that you can use before, during and after the challenge has finished.

Adding More Jewelry to Fabric - Material Musings

Today we look at some of the jewelry and beaded pieces and how we are going to attach them to fabric.

These are pieces that you can do ahead of time, look through your supplies and see what pieces can go together. The more time you spend in you supplies and materials, you will begin to get more and more familiar with what you have and which pieces might work together.

Do not worry about changing your mind either if you don't like where you have placed an item, you can take stitching out and reposition the beads or change the colors it is up to you!

That is experimenting is about an you have to give yourself space and time to do so.

Enjoy!
