Hi Gillian! I would love to win a spot in the LB 2016 class. The last few years have been very difficult and plagued with personal losses, but it’s time to turn a corner and I can’t think of a better way to start a new year than to start it with the journey through LB with other like minded souls. I signed up for your news letter and shared LB 2016 on my FB time line and in the FB public forum. Congratulations on becoming a member of the LB teaching staff and thank you for the opportunity to enter. XOX juliembear@msn.com
Thank you so much Julie!
I would so love to win a seat in the 2016 class! I am taking it now and have been using the journaling and mixed media art technique to work through grief and move forward. We cant afford for me to sign up for a class right now so….fingers and toes crossed! Thank you for the opportunity!
Thank you so much Willow
Gillian, so happy to “discover” you via this wonderful blog hop. I have watched Lifebook from a distance over the years and would be thrilled to be able to join the fun in 2016.
Thank-you for the opportunity.
I’ve liked your facebook page but I can’t find the post I have to share!
I would like to be part of LB2016 because it’s an opportunity to express myself through my art.
Thanks

I’ve done Life Book for the past 2 years now, and am so looking forward to another year of the wonderful community, the generous teachers, and the chance to learn more about myself through the process. Thank you for the chance to win!
Thank you so much Wendy

Thank you Gaylene
Gillian, I am so excited that you’re a part of Life Book 2016. You’re among many other teachers I respect as well. The combing of doing Art along with health and healing appeals to me as I know working on those things together can only help to improve my life, well-being and creativity!
I’m excited for the opportunity to attend this year long class. Looking forward to the learning, the work, the exploration, the risks.
Thank you so much Nina!
I would love to be part of Life Book 2016 because I have seen the great art work created by a friend in 2014 and I believe I will benefit from the lessons learned for my own personal healing journey.

Thank you so much Marianna – you are entered!
I signed up for your newsletter and “liked” your Facebook page. However, I did not find a FB posting for Life Book 2016. I’ll check back later to see if it is up on FB. Love your artwork. And I’m so hoping to win a spot this year in the Life Book 2016 class. It is the only way I will be able to take the class.
Gillian, I would be in heaven to take Lifebook for so many reasons…to be learning and surrounded by such talented artists and teachers…to expand my knowledge and really mold my own niche with mixed media. Lifebook would keep me going weekly, while busy with work, family and life. It would keep me motivated and productive, and take me to places I’ve yet to be. And to learn from artists all over the world. I am trying so hard to win a spot!! Thank you for the chance!
I am in my 60’s and have recently discovered Art journaling and mixed media. I would love the opportunity to explore and learn different techniques. They say it’s never too late to learn new things and I am proof of that. Thank you.
Thank you so much Ronda!
Would love to join you on Life Book. What a fantastic opportunity it would be.

Lifebook has been a constant source of healing and growing for me. It has allowed me to learn things about myself that I never knew were there. I so hope to continue this journey for many years to come.

Life Book keeps me going in life. It is a a learning tool but it also shows me how many loving and kind people are still out there. Some years I have not been able to afford it and you miss seeing the familiar faces that arrive in your inbox showing their art.
I love the connection LifeBook provides. what a gray opportunity to learn new skills. Thank you for having a spot to give away. I’m thankful for this gift.
Loved LB 2014, missed LB 2015 so would love to join in on all the creative yumminess again!! Liked FB and signed up for newsletter.
I would love to win a spot in next year’s Lifebook as I have done 2 years now and am still loving the art, the friendship of the group and meeting the amazing and talented teachers. It is such an exciting and broadening experience.
So many wonderful teachers for 2016! Can’t wait to experience their art and lessons.
I would love to win a spot in Life Book 2016! The teacher line up is amazing, and I love you and your work Gillian! Thanks for the opportunity. Peace, Ronda
I have done life book the last 2 years and have learnt so much, but I really want to do it again now that I know that you will be teaching.
Hi!! Welcome to Lifebook!!! I would love to be a part of Lifebook 2016 as I have only just started my art journey back in June and have so very much I would like to learn. I joined 2015 in Aug and it’s been amazing. I am super excited about getting in from the start this time and getting to see all of the teacher’s blogs in this manner. Yay!
I would love to be part of Lifebook this year! I looked along from the side lines last year…but this year, I really hope I can win a spot. The teacher line up looks incredible and your work looks absolutely amazing! Keeping my fingers crossed that I can win a spot this time round!
Am a Lifebooker for 2015 and am loving it and want to continue after this year, really cementing in this most joyful habit! (have done the other things too)
I would love to win a spot for Life Book! My friends just can’t stop talking about how wonderful it is! I would love a chance to try it!
A friend is doing Life Book 2015 and raves about it. Having read the testimonials and description and seen all the amazing work by the teachers so far, I can’t NOT join! 🙂 Your work is beautiful and I look forward to seeing your presentation.
Would love to win a spot Gillian.. would love to learn from you
How exciting! Comgratulations!
I would love to win. I’ve been thinking about doing LB for the last few of years. xx
I would love to win a spot in Lifebook 2016, i love it but i cannot afford it in money, i work but the money is not take care of anything outside my monthly bills, and i live alone…..my heart would be grateful if i win a spot.
Oh I would love to win a LB2016, to learn much from so many great teachers. I will learn alot different technique , a way to devollop my self. Thanks for this.
I’ve shared and tag you 🙂
OMG love your artwork!!!!!!
First of all, congrats on being asked to teach in LB next year. I have to say I’m not surprised Tam chose you. I LOVE your art – what I’ve seen on here and on your FB page is truly inspiring.
I HAVE to do LB 2016. I’m currently doing it for the first time this year, and it has helped me grow so much, both artistically and personally – and I have made a couple of really good friends because of it. The community is so caring and I just can’t imagine 2016 without LB in my life – sitting waiting for the lessons on Mondays has become a ritual for me and I am a creature of habit. If I were lucky enough to win, it would be an awesome birthday present (although my bd is actually on September 19th), so thank you so much for this opportunity!
I would love to do Lifebook 2016. To learn from such a variety of amazing teachers is such a privilege :”)
I did all requested, only tagging didn’t work for some reason. I’m attending these draws, because they are the only way (with scolarships of course) for Life Book to be possible for me, since every cent available goes towards my studies to become an OT. Yet I’d really need some psychological support that Life Book tends to give to people attending.
What a wonderful opportunity. I don’t want to be greedy as I am already familiar with Gillian’s outstanding work, but I would be blessed to win a spot in this exciting workshop with so many talented artists.
LB is must have art workshop….
I have not done Lifebook before but have always looked with interest to see who the instructors are. I was really excited to see your name on the list for this year. I was not able to get in on your classes in Saluda this year(I live only a half hour away ) so I would relish any other opportunity I could get the learn from you. I have signed up for newsletter, liked FB page and shared your post(even though FB would not let me tag you in it.)
Thank you very much for the chance to win a spot! I would love the chance to learn from such an amazing lineup of instructors!
I was able to tag you when I “shared” your Facebook post on my own Facebook timeline. Yea, I did all 3 things on the list to hopefully win a spot in the Life Book 2016 class.
I’d love to win, have no money, am so ready for a change, all apply but aren’t convincing. I surrender and have faith in whatever comes my way or not. However wins, I hope you can use it.
Ps love your work
Hi Gillian – I entered because I want to take my art to the next level. My focus is on faces and I want to learn how to layer and add depth to the faces I create. Your artwork has these great shadows with shading and depth. I would love to learn more about your process and how I can add this kind of technique to my artwork.
Thanks!

I did all 3 request.I would love to win a spot in Tam’s class.Winning is the only way I can participate.I don’t purchase goods from the internet on request of My dear old fashion 71 Year old Husband. We are both retired and are on a small budget.Another reason is I just recently found out I have the beginnings of dementia and have been a little down and out. I love art and mostly making art in the mixed media form.I love to work with paper,paints, stains ect. It brings Me joy, relaxation, peace,and stimulates all the areas My Doc. says is needed.Thanks for listening to this old Grannie rant on.
I would love to continue the journey I started in 2015
I would love to be part of Lifebook 2016 because it brings such joy to my life and I am excited about learning from all the new teachers as well as some old favorites! It is going to be an amazing year!
I love your art and style. I feel I need a push to concentrate on some ‘me’ and am so exciting to learn more about and in Life Book. Thanks so much for this chance 🙂

I would love to be influenced by all the great artists in Life Book 2016.
I had to skip 2015 and I am ready to get back on the Life Book path. Your art is amazing. I appreciate your efforts to incorporate digital apps with the traditional art supplies. Very, very intriguing.
I’d love the opportunity to attend Lifebook 2016. I’ve just began art journaling and I’m having such a great time! I’m so addicted to art. Thank you for this fantastic opportunity.

What a wonderful opportunity to learn ‘how to’ get into many different styles of art. I am a novice and would love the opportunity to join Lifebook next year.
I have heard and seen so many great things that is Life Book. I would relish in being able to be part of such a wonderful and awesome community, and would love to learn and be inspired by all the talented teachers and students!
Hi! I’m a Lifebook virgin ;-), although I bought Tam’s 2012 version and I’m just finishing my last lessons of that package and I’m having so much more fun of it than I thought before!
Since 3.5 years I have a chronic disease (Lyme disease) and I’m finally starting to have more concentration and energy throughout the day. That’s why I finally can paint again and that gives a day so much more fun! That is why I would love to win a spot in Lifebook 2016 🙂
(p.s. I liked/shared on FB, my name there is Johanna Johanna)
Winning a spot in the Lifebook classroom would be marvelous because I admire each and every one of the teaching artists. I really enjoy learning new techniques and styles and how wonderful to be able to sample each of the teaching artists accomplishments. The best of the best all rolled into one class, what an exciting artful journey this would be!
I have never tried anything like Life Book and would really like to try.
I am newly retired, and want to follow my dream. A spot in LifeBook 2016 would be a wonderful start! I love your style, and would love to be your student.
I would love to be part of LifeBook again next year, especially after seeing the exciting lineup of teachers. Thank you for the opportunity to win a spot!
I would really love to win a spot on lifebook 2016 from you. I know I will grow and blossom with all the great teachers.
Thanks Lisa
I started my artistic journey when I retired. I’ve taken a few courses online and have learned so much. I’d love to learn more from the terrific roster of teachers of Life Book 2016.
What a grand opportunity it would be to win such an extraordinary adventure. The ability to learn from so many talented artists just blows my mind. This is my first time at your website and I love your work. Thanks for the opportunity to win a spot.
For several years I’ve been creating with only digital media – this would be the perfect way to get my hands dirty again!
Hey! I’ve never taken part of LifeBook, but I would just love to learn more about me and my creativity from such wonderful inspirational woman. Thanks for letting me take a chance at winning a space. I might just have a lucky bug in my pocket!!!!
Winning a spot in LB 2016 would be such a wonderful thing for me. A ray of sunshine. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to win access to this great art course.
So glad you are joining the LB tribe next year! I have learned a lot the past two years and hope to be inspired again next year!
Today is my birthday and I can’t think of a better present than this. Thanks for the chance to win.
I want to celebrate ME through LifeBook. I want to express myself and learn from amazing teachers and expand my horizon. I want live life fully and LifeBook teaches me that in so many ways. LifeBook is just amazing. Love it !
There is so much to learn! I would love the chance to join LB2016!
I was blessed enough to be able to participate in Lifebook 2012 and I enjoyed it immensely. as a Novice artist I learned so much. However, I’ve been unable to sign up since due to finances, art block, or life just not cooperating. I’ve recently started to art journal again and I’d love to win a spot and continue my journey!
Well, Lifebook 2016 looks so exciting and it has such a great line up of teacher–that’s why I’d love to be apart of it. And I love the underling theme of healing work.
So, far, I am posting the giveaway for all of the blogger/artists who are teaching in Life Book 2016, as that is one requirement you have given for your own one spot giveaway. I have ‘tagged’ you on Facebook, and have shared on my page.
When I saw Jeanne Oliver’s post when she was able to go to your Scotland retreat, I was swept off my feet! I felt like your artwork resonated with my soul, as I am of Scots-Irish blood. It’s always in the blood! So, yes, you are one of the main reasons I truly want to take Life Book 2016. I am partial to the deep feelings of kindred spirits! Thank you for a spot in your giveaway.

I would love a chance to win a spot in Lifebook! I’ve never done it, and all of the instructors are so fabulous! Thanks for the chance to win!
Your art is indeed soulful. It would be such a pleasure to learn from you in Life Book 2016. Life book is a wonderful platform to connect and share and learn and make your week joyful. Its a soul feeding experience. Much love and light. So look forward to 2016.
I would love to win a spot to participate in Lifebook 2016. A mix up of beautiful artists, many of which I follow by blog, fb or newsletters because I love their art and infectious desire to create. As I limp along trying to find my own voice and vocabulary I realize it doesn’t matter that I have no formal art education. If it is there it will come good or bad. But it helps to see other artists style and successes as well as their messes (if they share that!). I know it is true that when the student is ready the teacher will appear.
Wow! Your work is amazing! I would love to get a free slot for LB 2016!
I would love to continue my Life Book journey for another year but changes in my circumstances make it impossible financially. Winning this spot would allow me to continue to be a part of the amazing journey of Life Book, thank you for this chance.
Would love, love, love to win a spot in Lifebook 2016. It is my year of healing and would be perfect! Thank you
I would love to win a place – I love lifebook so much. Have shared and liked and tagged! x
I ”discovered” art two years ago and now cannot imagine my life without it. I would love to win a spot on Lifebook 2016 to learn different techniques and styles from all the different teachers.
this would be a great way to jump start creativity in the new year!
I would love to win a spot on lifebook 2016, because i’m eager to learn new techniques, and get new inspiration from all you talentes teachers. I couldn’t share you’re facebook post, because i could’nt find it.
What a wonderful year of art this will be with such a talented line up of creative teachers.
A dream come true would be to win a place to join this amazing community of artists!
I would love to win a spot for next year.
You will bring something unique to Lifebook Gillian. It would be a great way to have an art year. Happy to share on Facebook.
Lifebook is an amazing opportunity to be able to learn from a group of talented teachers over a period of a year. The great thing about LB is that you don’t only get to learn from the teachers but also from all the students who take part.
You get to discover new and exiting art techniques, find your artist voice, and even find your true self and what makes you and your creative spirit so unique and special.
So yes I would love to be a part of LB 2016 :”)
What a great opportunity to learn and be inspired by many wonderfully different artists!
Oh… this is wonderful Gillian – a Life Book and with you among the teacher! How lucky can one be. I would so much love to win a place in order to go on with experiments day by day. Also, such a great idea to start the new year making a year book to look back at.
Since I’m ‘early retired’ from my job (last year) I’m on a budget now and also not allowed to sell any of my art until March 2017 – and instead of being irritated etc I’ve decided to spend the time till then on experimenting, practicing and learning to grow as an artist.

Would love, love, love to win a spot in Lifebook 2016! Can’t even imagine the amount of teaching and artistry that will be part of this class. Thank you so much!
Lifebook has been my oasis in the crazy life I have. I’m constantly catering to others and spending my time doing things for everyone else (which I love. I love being there for my friends and family” but I need to learn to take time for myself. Lifebook always amazes me with it’s community and support and the inspiration it fills me with everyday. I need it for my soul. Thank you for this opportunity! 🙂
I would love to win a spot on LifeBook 2016 because I have no source of income and am, unfortunately, having to apply for disability due to health issues.
I received Life Book 2015 as a Christmas Gift last year, it has changed my life, It makes my spirit soar. I can’t wait for my Monday email to see the new lesson. It’s like Christmas every week. I have never considered myself an artist but Life Book has shown me that I am. Tam and her guest teachers have such gentle and giving spirits, it’s an honor to be able to learn from them. I can’t imagine my life without Life Book. Thank you for the opportunity to win a spot for this awesome journey called Life Book.
I would like to join Life Book 2016 because my creative mojo needs a swift kick in the arse.
I have liked the FB page and shared the post. i would like to win a spot that helps a lot to improve my art skills.
I would love to win a spot in the class – to get a push to using the supplies I’ve amassed over the last couple years. they are just gathering dust in the closet and this class would make me get them out and put them to work. I make greeting cards so I seem to find an excuse to not do mixed media. If I’m in the class I’ll have to put it on the front burner with the greeting cards.
thanks.
I’ve signed up for your newsletter, went to your FB page and “liked” it (hope I marked it correctly so you can tell I did).
