21 Secrets - France Papillon's Transparendipity

I took the big step and opened up France Papillon’s  class on 21 Secrets, my art journaling workshop.  France is my favorite art journalist and I was delighted to see that I could take a class with her.  But I was a bit nervous.  For months now, I’ve been watching her videos on YouTube, Journal on Monday.  

Many times, she has worked on a sheet of watercolor paper, and then attached it to her journal.  So instead of making a small book, as she had in her class, I decided to tear one of my sheets in half after finishing and glue it into my art journal.  I have three more sheets that I began (to use as backgrounds) to add.

France talked about knowing the products you use.  Very good advice.  I know I should pay more attention to what I’m using.  So I decided to read a little bit more about materials and their make-up.  Thank you France; I had a blast!
