Letting the cat out of the bag!

Hello! So sorry to be such a tease last time... I can finally let the cat out of the bag! What you saw was a snippet of this divine banner..... (don't ya love it - thanks Heather for creating it!)

I'm so excited to be able to announce a fabulous new place that some friends and I have created ~ Sweet Six Studio ~ an online art retreat that will run through for the whole of September ~ packed with wonderful, DOable art workshops with full instructions, giveaways and much more! There will be something for you every day of the month!


As the name suggests ~ there are six of us ~ Heather of Pretty Petals, Holly of Holly Doodle Designs, Analise of Sugar*Sugar, Jenn of Sweet Eye Candy Creations, Cheryl of Rosey Posey Confections, and myself.



We've been working super hard at making sure you'll have a wonderful place to create, and the 12 projects are super sweet!




It's more than just workshops and you'll see why....



A month long subscription can be purchased over at the Sweet Six Studio blog, which costs US$22 and gives you private access to this wonderful-ness! You can purchase anytime from now, and access to the workshops will become available as they are released, from September 2nd. A welcome letter with all the necessary info will be emailed to you within 24 hours of payment. (I'll mostly be emailing those letters so please allow for a probable different time zone since I'm in Australia!)



So, to celebrate and kick off in style ~ out of the six giveaways we'll be sharing with Sweet Six Studio subscribers, the first giveaway is open to EVERYBODY ~ and thanks to Analise, this is the wonderful prize! Just head on over to the Sweet Six Studio blog, and leave a comment on the Giveaway post to be entered!

And feel free to snag this button for your blog!

Please take a few minutes to read the very beautifully written introduction and a more detailed explanation of what this is all about, on the blog. Sit back, relax, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee..... it will conjure lovely images in your mind and take you to a happy creative place.... (thanks to Cheryl!)


Enjoy!

Natasha, it took me three lines into this post, and I quickly hopped over to sign up!! I love inspiration, and your creative place sounds just what I need to find a creative muse or two. Good luck, and I am so glad that I came for a visit. Karen

Hello! I just finished posting about this on my blog, with one slight problem. Every time I put your name on my blog, I get porn spam for Natasha Nice. I know. So instead of your name, I put your photo and put the link in the photo. If you don't want me to have your photo on my blog (since I didn't ask permission first) I totally understand if you want me to remove it. Take a peek and let me know. You don't have to put this comment on your page either.
It was just easier to contact you this way.
I'm very excited about your new blog and hope it does well!
