It is time to drum up awareness of my upcoming Joggles class! Barbara at Joogles and I are giving away one free spot in my Let's Exchange some Art Class, which starts in just two short weeks.




The class will teach you to paint and surface design PAPER! Make stamps and stencils, and play with ideas of composition and color. We will create three projects using these techniques, Artist Trading Cards, Tag and MAIL ART. We use the postal system as an art gallery, making our own envelopes and sharing the fun with one another within the group.
The Rules and Regs follow the photos.
Here are the rules:
1. Sign up for an account at Joggles. It is free and entails your giving basic information about yourself.
2. Leave a comment here on my blog. If this is all you do, you will have one chance to win a place in my class.
But you may want to double your chances.
---->2a. For an additional chance to win a spot in the class, embed these photos on your blog and leave a second comment with a link to your blog post on this post.
----->2b. Don't have a blog? Forward this posts link to 5 of your friends CC'ing me in that same email, then leave a second comment to this post. It helps if you tell them what the link is about!
The drawing for this give away will occur on Friday June 18.
Please note! You must leave a second comment to this post with the address to your blog with embedded pictures or a reminder of your cc'd email (this helps me keep things straight but it is your responsibility to do it).
I suggest you double your chances.
Reread these rules. May the excitement begin!

and it will be on Facebook soon.
Sounds like a fun class
This course looks like a lot of fun with much information. If I don't win I may have to sign up to use if for the Sketchbook project. I am new to mixed media such as this.
I'm in. Pick me pick me! And just so I say something intelligent...these cards and tags are way cool. You rock, Melly.
This looks like a lot of fun! I already have an account at Joggles. It's a fun shop and I've taken classes there. Want to take many more, but only so much time and money . . .
Thanks for doing this!

Brilliant advertising strategy - who could fail to want a place on this class?
And to prove I'm serious, here's my blog post - http://bilsblog.blogspot.com/2010/06/good-advertising-strategy.html
Thank you for the chance to win a spot in your class!! It looks like so much fun!

Dang it, the photos really are on my blog. It just takes about a minute and a refresh to see them. I'll fix it.
I'll probably take your class whether I win or not, quite honestly, but PICK ME ANYWAY!
Please pick me. I have been thinking about signing up for it anyways, so winning it would be great. No blog for me so this is my only chance.
