Growing my Digital Skills

So this year I have decided I want to grow my digital skills..I feel like I am a bit rusty, lol!!  So far I have taken a class with Jessica Sprague on Digital Art Journaling and picked up some new skills and recovered some lost ones lol!!  I plan on reviewing some of my previous classes...and making some notes on things I have forgotten about.  Here are a few of my favorite layouts from the class:

Something new on this one that I learned was the stamping technique where I masked in some of the patterned paper in the design of the stamp...and the filled alpha.....love it!!
