It’s Kick Start Art Journaling!
What’s an art journal? You can think of it as an illustrated diary…one that combines color, collage, photos and other visuals, plus writing. Art journals are a wealth of creative inspiration—and yet, sometimes the idea of actually creating your own art journal can be daunting.
As with most creative endeavors, often the hardest part is getting started. The second-hardest part? Keeping the momentum. Here’s where I can help!
Kick Start Art Journaling is a 6-week-long e-course. Each week you’ll get an email from me, with an art journaling assignment designed to kick-start your creativity. You’ll also have access to videos where I elaborate more on the material, and show you my art journaling pages. You can take the class whenever you like, and the assignments are in PDF so you can keep them to refer to again and again.

The Story of Molly Bears
We lost our angel, Molly Christine at 34 weeks, on May 30th 2010. I had not felt our active girl all day on the 29th. That night I went to the hospital to get checked and make sure Molly was alright. We were told that our precious daughter no longer had a heartbeat. She died from a tight true knot in her cord. Devastated would not even begin to describe how we felt.
I was given a weighted teddy bear from a dear friend from high school. This bear weighed three pounds. In an effort to have a bear that weighed the same as Molly, I bought a shell and a package of rice. In the middle of the produce isle, I carefully weighed rice, fluff and the shell. I am sure people thought I was crazy, but I did not care. I went home and with my children and husband, we created the very first Molly Bear. For the first time in weeks, I was able to sleep holding her. It was then that I knew I had to find a way to help other angel families.
I started making these bears for other angel mommies that I had become close to in several support groups. I had committed to one bear per paycheck and soon I had requests and a desire to make more. I went to my sister Amanda and I was venting about what I wanted and that I wasn’t sure how to make it happen. In a few hours she called me back with a plan, and within a week we jumped in – feet first.
We officially started in August 2010 and currently have over 4,000 orders and have created over 2,000 bears. We are in 50 states and 13 countries. Often times we are in awe of the amount of people who say Molly’s name. Words can not describe how humbled we are. This road has been hard and continues to be long, but we travel one day at a time and we are in wonderful company.
