Michelle's own line of Planner Stamps now available

Are you one of the Planner People?


I am.


I have used a planner as long as I can remember  and at the same time I have always been a list maker.  I used to have lists everywhere, on sticky notes, on the back of envelopes, on napkins, in my planner – everywhere.


In the last year I have grown to like a more cohesive and organized look to my lists and my week, even though in reality I am sometimes very disorganized with everything I have to do.


Trying to get better organized I realized that I could break down my day and my to-do list with stamps.  . . .  and so I decided to design some planner stamps.


Yes you heard it right – I have designed some stamps


I am so very excited to announce that we have a new line of planner stamps at the store.


Suburban Planning Line of Planner Stamps


The Suburban Planning line is the product of the creative imagination of Michelle McCosh, a mixed media artist and designer who pulls her inspiration from urban life.

“When Women come together with a collective intention, magic happens” – P.Rashad.

 


Last year’s Retreat was was so much fun and so inspiring that we decided to do it again in February 2016.


 


It was life altering.


 


Don’t Miss Out!! Last year this retreat sold out in just 9 days.

 


And to make sure there is something for everyone including those who missed out last year, we are doing 2 retreats on Back to Back Weekends. The first retreat is a repeat of the original, the second is a brand new concept Back to Back No Rules.


Back to Back “The Original” is the first retreat designed to appeal to everyone. You spend a day with both instructors together where you learn the basics and then a full day with each individually where you learn the ins and outs of their Art Journaling process and the secrets that make their styles so distinct and exceptional.


Back to Back “No Rules” was designed based on feedback from last year’s alumni. They told us where they wanted to take their art journaling next and Dina and Dyan have designed this retreat to get them there. This retreat is not for beginners, it’s designed to take you beyond your current limits.
