OMG!! This has to be my fav work done by you! I love the trees! What a perfect example of your amazing talent!!!

I love this idea for the walls in the bathroom! What a wonderful way to get art on the walls! Your studio is a working piece of art, can't wait to visit and see for myself. Thank you for all that you do to inspire me....

yes it is working properly now. Thank you!!!

Love the new stencils, I went to the shop to place an order, when trying to scroll down, the site would not allow me to do so. I ordered as many as I could click on, you might want to take a look at this and make sure it is working correctly. I would have ordered more but I could not get to some of the things on your site. Regardless I love the new things!!!!!

I just received 4 of your foam stamps and I am beyond excited!!!! I can't wait to use them!!!! Love me some Donna Downey stamps!

My day has been made when I went to your blog and you had a new college posted!!!! I love your sharing this on Monday and then the video you post on Wednesdays!!!! I am so excited for you on all the new things going on! I am planning a trip to N. C. and I want to visit the new shop! Thank you Donna for all of your inspiration!

Congrats!!! I am so excited for you! I hope to be in your neck of the woods in the near future, then I will get to see the new space! Love that you are sharing this with us!

Loving your new ink!!!

I think this page totally rocks!!! You are so inspiring to me, you make me want to try new things, and you also make me lol!!!! I wake up on Wednesdays and can't wait to see what you are going to do and you never ever disappoint!

Your blog is a must see for me every day of the week!!! I love your collage mondays and your inspiration wednesdays!!! You make me laugh at times with your great sense of humor. When I saw your art studio I fell in love with your island, so hubby and I took off to Ikea and found one there! Love Love Love it! Thank you so much for taking time out of your life to do what you do, what an inspiration you are to so many people!!!!

I'm looking forward to the class! Just wanted to know when we might get a supply list, I live in a small town so any things that I need for a class I have to order on line or travel some distance to get things. Have a safe trip!

You, Julie Balzer are my Judy Wise!

So excited to hear about the new class, I was in hopes that this was your news!!!!! It sounds great, working on yourself, your life and your art! Wonderful! Can't wait!!!

Being one of your biggest fans, I loved the work! So much so I just ordered one of the Gelli plates, want to learn a new technique. Can't wait to see what you do next!

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Max, we lost our beloved Jessee several months ago and we are still missing him. Funny how these sweet animals become such an important part of our families. I signed up for the class but so far I have not received any reply or info on it. I did email you and hope to hear back from you before Monday. Glad you had a great trip but you were missed here as well!!!!

LOVE your PL, the pages you show are so "you"! I have only been doing the art journal every day now since November and I'm not ready to commit to anything else at this point and time, loving the art journal way too much. Also my life is just so boring, I don't do anything worth documenting, I'm not as active and busy as you are. I totally get why you could fill up a week with things that are interesting and fun, you never seem to stop. Girl do you ever sleep? I totally get you wanting to keep somethings private, you put your self out there for all of us to learn and enjoy, some things need to be just for you.

Amazing work with the pan pastels!

Amazing work!!!!!

My favorite on line class has to be "30 Days in your Art Journal" that you taught last year. I enjoyed the class so much, there was such positive feedback from you and the other members of the class, plus having art in my life each and every day was wonderful. I have not missed a day since the class started back in November.

Just signed up for the class! I'm currently taking both SheArt classes and am enjoying them so much! Have heard nothing but good things about this class, so I'm looking forward to what's in store. Have a great time on your trip!!!!

Happy heart day Julie!

Love this journal! Yes, yes, yes I would love to take this class, if you teach I will follow!!! I took your 30 Days in your Journal and am now taking your stamp carving class, I love your teaching style, so if you were to offer another clas count me in!!! I have already ordered at least half of the new stencils and expect them any day now, can't wait to play with them.

Happy Birthday Julie!!!! Hope your day is all that you hope it to be! I enjoy my art journals so much more than any scrapbook layout I have ever done. I feel free when playing in my journals, I can be totally myself. With a layout I feel constrictive in how and what I do. Since I have started working in my journals I have not done one scrapbook page! Never thought that would happen!!!!

Girl you never cease to amaze me!!!! How could you give these up? They are each just the coolest! When this book is finished would it be possible to purchase a copy? Thank you so much for sharing!

I'm going to have to get a second job to get these things!!!!
