Self-care isn't selfish.
We hear so often that we need to take care of ourselves and practice self-care, but the truth is, that looks different for everyone. Some people enjoy walks and manicures, while others like to go out and explore new places. It is so important to zero in on what refreshes you and gives you a special spark.
For creatives, we often need time (and permission!) to practice new techniques and play with fun craft supplies. However, that "play time" can often feel selfish, since we are not necessarily producing a final product. I am here to tell you that there is so much to be gained from creative play.
In this course, you are given permission to play, explore, and create using a variety of supplies and techniques. We will explore and grow together, spurring on our creativity and practicing some self-care.

More about me...
Hi friends! My name is Elisa, and I have a life-long love for school supplies and all things crafty. From being a little girl who filled her caboodles with sequins, beads, and art supplies, to the crafty classroom teacher always making her own visuals, and now as a mom with a passion for art journaling, I take every chance I can to have some creativity in my day.
I believe whole-heartedly that we all have unique creativity within ourselves. We can tap into it if we will give ourselves permission to make mistakes, to explore new ideas, and to grow in our art. You don't have to be a professional artist to gain so much from spending time on your creativity.
