Inspiration

Looking for inspiration to spruce up your home? I've stumbled across two great sites and can't stop referring back to them They've become a part of my lunchtime online lineup. Both affordable, clever and smart. Have fun here and here good friends! Check out they're sweet wedding, have always wanted to attend a reception this personal and fun. I'm looking to redecorate on a budget, if you know any great links please share!

pink + pink + pink

Ahh...what a blissful mess....
Am currently repainting all of the painted furniture in my studio- from flat black to clean, glossy white. Can't wait to create in the finished room. Was feeling cramped and cluttered in there lately and very uninspired, ugh. Am also thinking about painting the platform rocker tucked into the mess above. Maybe white with bright pink fabric? Will post pictures after the rooms completed.

Just a couple sweet bits of pink perfection I've been whipping up. I love pink + hot pink together. My heart sings when I pull the Acra Crimson out of the paint box, it goes on so smoothly- the perfect shade of hot pink

Thank you so much Leah for asking me to make your growth chart, can't wait to see pictures from the party. Am so glad we've met!

Happy Birthday Dan!

Happy Valentine's Day friends! Get out there and love on your friends and family. Heart shaped waffles to greet my Valentine last year. He also appreciated the beef jerky I lovingly cut into heart shapes for him! Have a fabulous day!

One great project

Here they are, the sweet dolls I've been working on for the past month. Below are the bound beauties waiting to be cut out and adored. The set with blue ribbon are the color copies and the original artwork is handbound in the books. I did learn a great lesson after taking my pictures- don't procrastinate uploading them to your computer. My close up shots haven't turned out so great and I just found that out this morning. Hopefully, I can retake those before I add them to my website. Procrastination- my downfall everytime!
I really enjoyed making these, it's been a while since I've sat down and drawn a complete set and never fails to make me happy. The little details are my favorite and I thinkI feel most comfortable with a pencil in my hand. Enjoy!

In the works

I am wrapped up in a wonderful project today. Actually it's been a few weeks in the making but today was a dessert day, I finished my final ink drawings and am ready for the printer. Below is a sneak peek...
Just a little snippet of a new paperdoll for someone's very special granddaughters! Will be posting the whole sha-bang after January 31st. It's a joy to feel energized by your projects, I love it! Have been listening to this great song, hope it calms your soul like it does mine. Have a great weekend friends.
