Glimpses of Holiday Cheer...

Here's a preview of some new Christmas cards I've been working on... Funny, at my house all we've been talking about is Halloween, but I sit down at my desk and there's Santa haha! Happy, Merry! ;)

New Prints

Available now in MY ETSY SHOP... Fun PRINTED thank you notes! These came out really cute! I hope you like 'em! :)

Sketchy

In the Works...

With the little free time I've had lately, I've been getting ready to make printed Thank You's, as well as some other printed sets (don't worry, they're coming soon.. I promise!!) ;) I've had a little setback though, as my scanner is broken.. It scans everything black. I think the lightbulb is out! Ugh!

Here's a preview!

I'm also already getting started on my show season! I'm trying to get a jump start, because I always end up working through the night the day before.. haha Just like a school project! Yikes! ;) I'm going to have more framed art on display, some of which will be made into printed cards. Fun! :)

What's Inspiring Me Today...

Every so often I get in a creative funk. I like to take my camera around and look for anything inspiring in and around the house! It really helps to get the artistic vibes flowing ;) (I recommend it... and its fun!)
Here are a few shots that have inspired me to get creative today:

This beautiful, handmade "witch ball" was given to me as a gift.. It came from a shop on Etsy called Molten Spirit. You should check out the shop to see the other gorgeous glass creations!!! I always wanted one of these balls, and I was so excited to get it! Its so pretty when the sun shines through...


This is a random shot from my bedroom... I love the polka dots, the dried hydrangea, and that mirrored star...


These are some random pieces of art that I laid out on my desk the other day. I just love the way they look all together! I haven't had the heart to pick them up... I just keep looking at them and smiling ;) I guess now that I've taken a photo, I can move them LOL


This is a bucket of bookmarks that I take with me to craft fairs... I just love the way the ribbons spill out of the top! Its endlessly fascinating to me...


My son's bucket of crayons...

My cup of colored pencils...

A set of polycarbonate glasses that are stacked up on my desk... I bring a cup of water with me everytime I come to my studio, and for some reason I never take them back down! They are actually so colorful in the light! :)


What do you do to get your creativity going?

Happy Fall!

I found time to take photos of all my new designs! (Yipee!!) JUST LISTED! New Fall, Halloween, and much more!
