Hi friend! I am so happy you are here.
You can call me Brooke or BB and I'll be your guide and biggest cheerleader wherever you’re at in your artistic journey! Whether you are discovering art for the first time or you’ve been around the block a time or two.
Creating has been an innate need of mine for as long as I can remember. Diving deep into every creative hobby that I could get my hands on has been one of the mainstays of my life thus far. Through years of exploration and returning to child-like play I have found my home in mixed media art journaling. I specialize in finding ways to bring more texture into artwork through textiles and intuitive stitching and combining techniques and elements that don’t “go together.”
My passion is ignited when I focus on creative problem-solving through play and experimentation, which leads to innovative ideas. My purpose is fulfilled and my heart is happy when I can not only share my knowledge but also help others to break down inner thought barriers in order to create freely and trust their artistic intuition.
I've spent years honing in on my process for creating art journals that are not only functional but unique works of art. I will teach you the steps that will guarantee results that you will be proud to show off.
Through a distinctive process of learning the "rules" and techniques, I will then encourage you to break the rules and make the creation process your own. Intuitive playing and experimentation will become integral parts of your art practice.
So far, I have taught and guided over 5,000 students, and I would love to join you on your art journey! Whether you are discovering art for the first time or you’ve been around the block a time or two.
Welcome! I am so excited to have you here.

I’m here to tell you that you can. And I want to be the one to guide you on that journey.
Not only will you be learning new methods and techniques, but I promise that you will leave this class feeling more confident and accomplished as an artist.

No matter where you are on your artistic journey, I will meet you where you are and encourage you to play and create meaningful art.

Module 1 - Fabric Dyeing
Deep dive into creating fabrics! Hand-painted and dyed. Patterned and solid. We’ve entered textile heaven!
Module 2 - Journal Covers
Create the structure for your BB Journal! Learn to use your new handmade fabric in conjunction with store-bought/found fabrics.
Module 3 - Intuitive Stitching
Intuitive stitching demystified - you’ll be adding stitching to all of your projects! Or use your sewing machine if slow stitching isn’t your thing
Module 4 - Papers
It’s time to create some crinkly colorful goodness! You’ll want to dive head first into messy papers, mastersheets, and more! Honestly, papers could be a 6 week course all on it’s own! Take some time to really enjoy each process. This isn’t a race - we’re all about enjoying each step.
Module 5 - Interactive Elements
This is where we take out our sewing machines! Using all the yummy papers you’ve created - we start to create the pages for your BB Journal. This process is so different from the way you’ve made journals in the past - take time to explore and master each concept.
Module 6 - Signatures
Break free from the belief that signatures in a journal are just plain pages. We add so many inspiring fabric bits and embellishments before we bind!
Module 7 - Binding
Now that we’ve added a bunch of texture and interest to our pages, we are ready to bind. Your BB Journals is getting chunky and taking on a life of her own!
Module 8 - Embellishments
This week we take your journal to the next level! All of the add on embellishments will make you drool with excitement.
Module 9 - Closures
It’s time to wrap it all up! (literally and figuratively)
SUPPLIES
After taking a closer look at the modules, you may find yourself feeling one of two ways about the supplies needed for this class.
You might be grinning with excitement because you realize the diverse topics mean you'll finally get to use all those art supplies you've been hoarding! No judgment here—I've been known to hoard supplies too 😉
OR you may feel a bit overwhelmed. Especially if you're a beginner, you might wonder how much money you'll have to spend to take this class. Don't worry! I've created a "bare minimum" supply list covering only what you'll actually need. If you have these supplies, rest assured you're fully equipped to make the most of this class! The rest is just extra. Watch me use these "extras" in videos, and then decide for yourself if they're something you actually need.

Craft Your Own Path:
Flexible Learning Tailored to Your Unique Style!
I designed this course with flexibility in mind to accommodate different learning preferences. We're all unique, so I encourage you to choose the option that works best for you!
Option 1: Dive into all the course content (videos, PDFs, guides, etc.) released on April 14th! Take the "choose your adventure" approach: binge-watch the videos or explore modules that interest you the most. Feel free to dive deeper into captivating modules—there's no strict schedule here. My goal is for you to enjoy the journey and find art as an escape from the daily hustle.
Option 2: Prefer a community-driven experience? If you are in need of accountability and looking for friends that will help you stay encouraged, this is the path for you! Follow along week by week as I guide you through the modules. This structured approach culminates in creating a stunning art journal. Take advantage of our private group forum, live office hours, and direct feedback sessions for added support and encouragement.
Option 3: Can't decide? Opt for a mix of both! Ultimately, it's about what feels right for you. One thing you'll learn early on about me as a teacher, is that I will provide you the tools you need to succeed, but then I will encourage you to discover the path that works best for YOU! With various learning methods, you're sure to find what resonates with you best.
Getting direct, personalized feedback is one of the best ways to grow as an artist!
