EDITED 9/1/2011
I wanted to start out by saying Thank You to each and every one of you. Your comments about the class and my YouTube videos have just really meant so very much to me. When I thought about doing a giveaway I never expected the amazing benefit of hearing from so many of you like this. In many ways it is a gift right back to me.In the spirit of such generosity from all of you for your overwhelming support I have opted to add two more seats to the class. I promise I will still be available to each and every person to answer questions and be supportive to you all. I just really wanted to honor as many as I can and still be able to handle the number of students in the class.
Thank you so much! I will contact each of the winners privately via email.
And the winners (I used the random generator from random.org) are:
#67 Anne Gaal
#29 s
#24 Cynthia H
#19 Nina
#4 Michelle MenserCongratulations to the winners. I will be sending you an email and enrollment information. If you don’t receive it in a few hours please get in touch with me.
I am giving away three seats to my art journaling class. All you have to do is leave a comment in the comments section below. This is a thank you to all of my blog readers and YouTube fans.
I will close the comments and do the random draw at midnight EST tomorrow. Just in time for the start of class on September first!
Good luck!

What an amazing opportunity Christy! I’ve been looking at your class wanting to take it, however I’ve already spent so much money on online art classes this year that I just couldn’t justify the cost, even if it is very reasonably priced.

Hello, I love your work, and would love to win this drawing. Thanks. : )
This is very nice of you to over seats to your class. Since I am on disability and really aren’t able to fit such classes with my income, the only way to get into these online classes is if a giveaway was offered. That would be nice. But I wish everyone luck. Thank you.
I’d love to be one of the lucky 3.
*fingers crossed I’ll win a place in your new course*
I think your work is amazing and am always in awe of your finished pieces. I would welcome a chance to take lessons from you.
Love your work, and would be thrilled to have a seat in your class. Thanks for all your inspiration, and sharring your amazing creations.
I would be thrilled to win! Your work is so inspiring and beautiful! Thanks for the chance to win!
but Christy, you KNOW I adore you and followed you from youtube! and I am also broke right now since my money goes mostly to lumber and art supplies! I would be ever so grateful for a chance to be in your class!! I would I would I would!!!
Also…. my dogs love you and wrote “We love gulfsprite” with their tiny paws in the mud outside of our job site, it was amazing!! It’s like you have taught them english as WELL as teaching me the wonders of art!
Oh yes, one more thing, I made my first spray this morning per your discussion and it was a total flop, dripped everywhere and soaked the doily so I’m “challenged” when on my own?????
Ang
Hi, I had a hard time also with my 1st spray but found if I mixed the liquid/powder dye with very hot water 1st, shook,shook and shook, then added alcohol…it worked great. Good luck
I enjoyed your videos…. I just enrolled for the class and then discovered your give away…not sure if I am still eligible for the give away…but am looking forward for the class…
LOve your work! I’m from Alaska and would love a seat in your workshop pick me!!:)
-Christina:D
I’d love a chance to win. What a fabulous giveaway
I watch your videos consistently and even have most of them in my favorites list under the heading GulfSprite. I want to start an artist journal, but don’t know how to overcome my fear of blank sheets of paper. I think that your 30 Days of Art Journaling would be just the ticket. Please keep on making your fabulous YouTube videos.
i would be absolutely thrilled to win a spot in your class. You are very inspiring to me.
I would love to win a seat in your giveaway……I enjoy your videos…thanks so much for the opportunity to enter = )
pick me pick me please pick me!
Lol…love your work, love your vids on YouTube. Thank you so much for your generosity in making them for all of us to learn from. I know it takes eons for all of you artists that make these videos and I’ve learned so much since I started journalling and mixed media art back in November. I really appreciate it. Thank you!!! Jan
You videos are so fun to watch! It would be fabulous to be part of your 30 day class. Pick me!
I would so love to win a spot in your class!
I would love a spot on your course. It is worth a try
I love what you do and am so happy you are offering your first course!
I so enjoy your videos and am SO addicted to my re-purposed hardcover book journals ala ur video. Tomorrow is my 54 birthday and it sure would be fun to win a spot! Julie
Hi, Christy! Thanks for the generous opportunity! It sounds like so much fun! I’d love to win! My inner artist would be so thrilled!
Oooooooo La La! I’d love to win this!
Would love to win, 30 days of art journaling with all of you would be spectacular!
oooh,, wouldn’t this be fun and exciting!
This is super generous of you – have loved watched you create on youtube and to be included in a workshop like this would be amazing. Thanks for all your inspirations
Darn! I just realized that I left my comment on your YouTube page! I hope I am not too late. Will keep my fingers crossed. Thanks for this opportunity,
Gonna be stuck inside for awhile due to ill health, would love something to do with my time!! *crosses fingers*
I’m desperately in need of inspiration and a kick in the creative pants. Would love to join this class. Thanks for the opportunity!
I would love to win. Thanks for the chance.
I am so impressed with your generosity in giving away 3 seats in your new class. Truthfully, I just came across your blog and am not really familiar with your art. I am new to art journal-ling and have been trying to teach myself through reading, watching u tube videos and joining art journalist groups. I would be thrilled to take an on-line course in art journaling. Being a retired Social Worker, I am on a fixed income and the $60 – $65 most courses charge is a little steep for me. Please consider me for one of the seats in your class. Thank you for your consideration and keep up the good work! Shari Peters
WOOHOO! I WANNA WIN!!!!
Super duper excited thank you so very much for this opportunity!!!! Counting my lucky stars till midnight
YAY!!!!!!!!!
Hi Christy, This is my first time entering a contest on the internet. I’ve been watching your videos for a few months now. Wow have I learned a lot from you. I would love to have a seat in your class. Hope this entry isn’t too late. Thanks for this opportunity.
You are so generous and I really enjoy what you are dong on Wild Precious plus I view each of your youtube videos.
