Sponsor Giveaways : Little Light Studio, Big Picture Scrapbooking, & Mondo Beyondo
Two people will receive full tuition to Lights! Camera! Actions!, the latest online photo editing course from www.littlelightstudio.net.
Once upon a time in a land far, far away (aka the internet) Kayla Aimee Terrell and Wilna Furstenberg hosted a few online classes together. Soon, their Bling Out Your Blog class outgrew it’s online home. “Whatever shall we do?” they asked themselves. And then the prince climbed up the tower…no wait, wrong story. Then they worked and worked and created a new space to offer classes, with cute classrooms and lots of free goodies.
Little Light Studio is now home to online scrapbooking, photography and blogging workshops as well as free tutorials and printable products! The latest class, Lights! Camera! Actions!, is offered in collaboration with www.scrapartist.com and focuses on photo editing techniques such as color tints, vintage washes, skin smoothing, web editing and more! Plus, it includes a private class forum, photos, bonus editing kit and a 20 page photobook template! People from all across the land came to spruce up their photos. And they all lived happily ever after!
SPECIAL OFFER : Now
through June 15 readers can enter code AE15 at checkout to
take 15% off enrollment in the workshop.

One person will receive a spot in Tracey Clark's upcoming Big Picture workshop: Picture Summer.
Picture Summer is a 30-day photography project intended to encourage and inspire you to celebrate the season of sun and fun by playfully engaging your creative spirit.
As you are greeted each morning with a new photo prompt in your inbox, you will discover new ways of seeing things as you point your lens toward your daily life and the world around you. Summer is a time where most daily routines are turned on their ear and the combination of long sunny days, warm weather and a lack of schedule can be a blessing (offering a well-needed reprieve from the rest of the year) and a challenge (chaos, kids, travel). Taking a few minutes to put it all in perspective will help make your comings and goings that much more enjoyable. The imaginative guidance of this e-class will be a perfect way to start each day.
It is my hope that by participating in the Picture Summer 30 day project, that you will not only be pursuing happiness, you will be living it, one day, one picture at a time.

I'm hoping to learn how to work with my DSLR camera on the manual settings. Right now I normally use aperture priority and I'd like to move beyond that. (Great giveaways this week!)

One thing I hope to learn this summer?
How to relax and live in each moment. How to create memories that include the BIG things that will happen (a trip of a lfetime) and the little things that will happen (daily trips to the pool). Ooops...that's two things.

This summer is a time for me to celebrate turning 50 and being the best wife, mother, grandmother and person I can be for my family. Taking pictures is one way I like capturing the moments of life.

At 47 years old...I have so much I WANT to learn:) I truly hope to spend time "learning" to simplify. Can that be learned? And, as we go into new seasons I always have new goals (just like New Years Eve). I want to use the www tolearn from others how they grwo their business...as my Maine Pursenalities and More took a turn for an incredible slow down when I had my appendix out in March. AND I want to learn all there is to know on how to use my camera:) PHEW I have a busy summer ahead i think?
Dancingly, Denise

I want to learn to trust my talent! For YEARS, I've been pussy footing around getting down to business with my creative talents. I want to turn my creativity into dollars, but have always seemed to find a way to chicken out on doing it. I just stick with my boring day job and "wish" I could get out of it. So.... I am going to make a methodical plan and STICK WITH IT. I will learn to trust it!

This summer I have to learn how to live without my oldest son at home. He moved out yesterday, eager to begin his journey as a young adult. It is a bittersweet weekend. This summer I will embrace the possibilities and the new relationship we share. I will cherish all the memories, thankful that srapbooking has been a big way I've documented our story.

Wow, sounds good - two great classes and a wonderful project. What I want to learn this summer is cooking more healthy and eating less "bad stuff". Because I want to document these things I would like to learn how to edit my photos.
