Journal with Jamie: Celebrating Your Creative Year

[@MariaM-yn9tl]

🥰💕Thank you for all your inspiration. Biggest take away this year is sharing my love of art collage journaling. Also learning to try not to have any rules. Each day just create what I love in that moment. I just always have all my ongoing projects in baskets, trays, project bags for on the go at all times. Each day I grab what moves me. Pure happiness. No rules anymore. 🥰💕🧶📕🪡 🧵 🏠 💃🏻

How gorgeous! I have no doubt whatsoever that each day creating what you love in the moment will lead to a life well lived, Maria! Thank you for sharing your new no-rules philosophy!! I am inspired!

I am forever grateful for my 2021 Winter of Devotion! It shifted the way I think about art, creativity and myself. Thank you, Jamie, for putting your whole self into the work you do and creating space for us to dig deep roots and spread our wings!!

I am forever grateful for your presence, Kem. What a joy to share this journey with you. May your writing continue to guide the way. ((bighugs))

So glad to see this!!!! It felt good to hear your voice and to journal with you again. I didn’t realize how much I miss the Journal Club. One thing I realized as I answered “what did you learn” was that I guess I really did create something. I’ve enjoyed making small, simple, handwritten birthday notes with just a little flower or plant drawing that I’d color in with watercolors. It was a big step for me to share something I usually do just in my personal practice. Thank you, Jamie. Enjoy your Winter rest ❄️✨

Jamie, I am so grateful for you on this planet at this time. Your absolute authenticity, intelligence, and inspired heart feed not only the creative Me, but the Me that remembers why I am alive. Thank You!

Cynthia, your words went straight to my heart. I am so glad you are here and that we are connected. I am celebrating that YOU with so much love!

What a fun treat on a cloudy afternoon! Everything I wrote is too long for a YT comment, but the biggest inspiration was finding a writing tribe. It's been a source of inspiration, encouragement, laughter and love. Wishing you all the snuggly, bear-in-its-winter-cave lusciousness this winter!

[@theschoolofcreativemagic]

How wonderful that there was such abundant inspiration that it's too much for YT - YES!! Yay to finding your people. May the gifts keep growing exponentially! Thank you for the warm wishes. I am so ready to be that bear!

Oh, Jamie. It is so good to see you. Thank you for this sweet journaling opportunity. I feel my creativity waking up again and am getting reacquainted with my art supplies, organizing them, and using them. Praying this reawakening will continue in 2022.

[@theschoolofcreativemagic]

It's so good to be here! I'm so glad you enjoyed the journaling. What a joy to know your creativity is reawakening! I have absolute trust that the blossoming will continue! ((bighugs))

So good to see Scout, Escher, and Shibumi again too.

[@theschoolofcreativemagic]

They insisted on making an appearance. Or what, was that me? ;)

Thank you for this video and encouraging us to remember all the creative things we did this year. By the way I love your white desk! It’s dreamy. ❤️

[@theschoolofcreativemagic]

Melody, I love that we journaled together today. I hope it was a great celebration of you! And thank you about the desk. It was a gift from Justin several years ago and I treasure it!

I received my winter studio yearbook, but never received any emails concerning the q & a. I get all other emails from Jamie Ridler Studio. 😔 wondering if I got lost in the shuffle.

[@theschoolofcreativemagic]

Thanks for letting me know, Anita. Hopefully we've got it sorted now!
