If you’ve been following along, you know that April is a busy month for Sprouts Press. There are many shows and workshops happening, everyone seems to love journaling and sketching this time of the year.
So, today I’ve been working on a new batch of Adventure Journals, just for this month’s shows: Makeology and the Wayzgoose Book Arts Fair!! If you don’t know about these shows, just click the ‘Shows‘ tab along the top menu bar of my site to learn more.
Hope to see you soon!
Can you believe that spring has started and it’s almost April?! You know what that means: newsletter sign-up time! 
This month is a big one, some really exciting news & announcements, *maybe* something special for subscribers (wink, wink) and a concise listing of upcoming events, workshops and general goings on of my little company.
As always, I only send one email per month. It’s a lot of work putting together a nice newsletter, I’d never waste all that energy and time on spam.
If you’re already a subscriber, expect the next newsletter on Monday. If you want to become a subscriber, just go here.
Here’s an exciting tidbit: Makeology Spring Craft Fair is less than one month away!! Mark your calendars, start your engines and prep for seriously awesome handmade goodness!!
I’ll be there as a vendor, selling my handbound books, journals, albums as well as my other book-related products (like bookbinding kits!). Also, I’ve got something special in the works, just for this show! It’s a series of journals that will be made only once, and available only at this show – stay tuned for details!
When: Saturday April 16 (one day only!) 11am – 6pm
Where: The Cotton Factory, 270 Sherman Ave. North, Hamilton
For more details and directions, please see the show’s webpage here.
I’m a makeologist! It’s with a happy heart that I’m celebrating Sprouts Press acceptance into the Makeology show!
There will be more details closer to the event (like swag bag info for early birds!!) but I’m so thrilled I just had to share it now!!

The first newsletter of 2016 will be sent out tomorrow! If you haven’t subscribed yet, you have until tomorrow, 6am to get on it!!
I send my newsletters out via email, once a month. While content varies month to month, there’s always a list of upcoming workshops, shows and other goings on. Sometimes there’s even special surprises just for subscribers!!
To subscribe, go here.
It’s the One of a Kind Show! This year, the show runs from November 26 till December 6, 2015 at the Enercare Centre (formerly the Direct Energy Centre) on the CNE grounds. 
There are so many awesome, amazing makers and artisans at this show, it’s a great chance to start your holiday shopping and support local, handmade businesses while you’re at it! (That means no mall!! Woohoo!!)
