  36. I have to two creative goals for 2013… STRENGTH ~ to step outside my comfort zone and do mixed media art, something that I have wanted to do; but never was able to “Just Do It” and ENCOURAGE ~ others to express their true feelings through art journaling. I am new to it myself, but feel it should be a natural thing. It is the one place that you should be able to be honest and true, without judgement. So far so good… learning is always a creative goal, so I am so happy to be joining all of you for the first time here at Jump Start!!! Thank You for allowing me to be a part of the experience!!!

Mainly for me it’s been to end the relationship I have with my negative chatter. My journey in 2013 will continue to be, to push forward and leave my friend behind, and to utilize this fabulous “jumpstart program.

  44. Gerd Andersson says:

    This year, I’m going to jump into the scrapbooking and mixed media world to learn as much as possible. And when I feel ready, it’s time to start an album about my dear daughter’s wedding. Prima products will certainly be suitable for my project!

  45. Lela Meinke says:

    i am doing Ali’s one little word class. My word this year is Grace. My goals are to keep up with her assignments and to also try to weave in my own version of project life. I am using a color palette with teals and greens. I used Christy Tomlinson’s technique to put a “color swatch” together. I went to my local stamp store and bought a bunch of prima’s and other stuff yesterday to use as embellishments in my pages. Blessings! Lela

  46. To get more creative with my stash, keep learning new techniques, and to continued to grow as a scrapper

  47. My creative goal is to just CREATE MORE!!!! I love Prima products but they are hard to find in our country so I buy them were ever I see them! Really amazing products!

  48. Heather O'Brien says:

    My creative goal is to start and complete my 2011 and 2012 scrapbooks

  49. Lynn Shaffer says:

    well if you would have asked me before the jumpstart what my goals were it was simple. scrap more. Now as I watch these amazing videos it is to try new things! Thank you so much for this change to win!

  50. Hi there. My overall goal this year is to make the most of the things I have in my stash; to use some of the tools and products that I’ve never used. Also this will include having to spend my money very wisely on value for money products that are versatile and have more than one use… I am on a very limited budget so I can’t afford to buy things just to put in drawers or on shelves. My creative goal this year is to do more stuff just for the pure enjoyment of it, and to make some pieces that I can make into art for my home and enjoy what I’ve done, rather than doing stuff that I give away all the time. This will include looking at the things I have in different ways, and that’s why this feature is proving to be brilliant.

  51. bjaneglas says:

    since my word is adventure-that means doing some new techniques

  52. My creative goal for 2013 is spend more time making things that I like, for example many layouts with Prima flowers and embellishment, I love them!.

  54. Denise Werkheiser says:

    My creative goals for 2013 are to 1) journal &/or collage every week, even if for a short time; and 2) pick six unfinished projects in my stash and finish them!

  55. My goal this year is to have one of my projects published.

  56. To spend as much time getting my hand dirty as possible, drawing, stamping, painting, embellishing and finally finishing the family cookbook for my daughters.

  57. My goals are to finish some Scrapbooking albums and use my new learned techniques on my layouts, not just cards! …and of course, with more Prima goodies!
