It's My Birthday - Let's Celebrate!

3 minutes

It’s my birthday 🎂 and instead of just blowing out 62 candles (a definite fire hazard), I thought… why not turn this into a full-on collage-style celebration with YOU?

So here it is:

🎉 My Top 10 Ways to Celebrate My Birthday (Collage-Lab Style)

1. Treat Yourself (62% OFF!)

Yep, you read that right. Use my birthday coupon to get 62% off all regularly priced prerecorded classes & workshops. If you’ve been eyeing something… this is your sign. Use COUPON CODE: 62BASH (48 hours only)

2. Grab the Freebie That Started It All

My class "G" is for Grids just turned 6 (!!). It’s free, fabulous, and a perfect way to play with structure + creativity.

3. Watch the free Composition Class Replay

I went live on Tuesday and shared some juicy goodness about making your collages work on purpose. If you missed it, go soak it up.

4. Join the Lab Rats Before the Price Jumps 🐀✨

The membership doors are open right now… but the price goes up on Monday. Lock it in and come play with us inside the Lab.

5. Submit Your Art for World Collage Day 🌍✂️

Good news: the deadline has been extended to April 17th! Plenty of time to create something amazing and share your work. Plus - it’s now free to enter up to 6 collages!

6. Make Some Messy, Glorious Art Today

Honestly? The best gift you can give me is to make something. No rules. No pressure. Just PLAY.


7. Try Something Weird

Use a tool you’ve never used. Glue something unexpected. Flip your process upside down. (Highly encouraged.)


8. Revisit an Old Collage

Pull something out from the past and give it new life. Add. Subtract. Tear it up. Transform it. (That’s exactly what we’re doing inside Principles in Practice this week!)


9. Buy Me a Coffee ☕ (or a gluestick!)

If you’ve ever learned something from me, laughed with me, or gotten inspired — you can send a little birthday love my way.

10. Hit Reply + Say Hi

Seriously. Tell me what you’re working on, what you’re loving, or what you want to learn next. I’d LOVE to hear from you.


Thanks for being part of this creative, colorful, slightly chaotic journey with me. 💛


Now go make something fun (and maybe grab that 62% off while you’re at it 😉).


Keep cutting & pasting!
