Spring garden/Easter 2013


I am so exited that spring is coming! My garden is already coming back to life. I am already getting blooms on my hibiscus bush. I am enjoying going out and watering my green babies. I will add a picture of the Blue Girl rose bush when it starts to leaf and bloom. My big tree out side my window is leafing again. ****My Blue Girl rose bush never leafed so the nursery replaced it with the Midnight Blue rose. I will have to wait till next year to try again.              Spring to me is a fresh start, a new beginning. It's perfect time for Easter. Jesus died and was reserected to give us new hope, a fresh start and a new be... » Read More

Christmas blessings 2012


I have been trying to decide what to write and decided to just go with my heart. I apologize if it strays off a bit or bounces a round. What I feel is very difficult to put into words.First off I want to say Happy Birthday to Jesus again. If it wasn't for your sacrifice hope an love would have not been born. I would not be the person I am with out you!I have been given so many gifts and blessings this year from loved ones and friends that I am in awe. You all know who you are and have been thanked individually. It warms my heart to know I am so loved and never alone. I can't it express what that means to me! Hugs to you all! The love I feel from... » Read More

The heart of Christmas


I have come to notice every Christmas brings new blessings. No matter what we have gone through the rest of the year. I call it new hope, and being thankful for the good in our lives. Many of us have suffered hurt and heart ache some how some way.      Christmas isn't just celebrating Christs birth giving us a new hope and life and heart, but it is celebrating surviving the hurt and heart ache. I hope and pray that everyone has a blessed Christmas day, and a fresh new better blessed new year.Here is a gift from me to all who is interested in it...a poem written by me... What Christmas Should be Christmas is not about making th... » Read More

My spring garden!


 My rose bush is blooming and my flower bed is turning green! I have herbs, tomato, strawberries, roses and edible flowers to bring color to my porch. More plants are going to be added a little at a time. I now have added German thyme, an Angelface and Dark star bush. I made plant markers to add even more love to my plants.   Blue hibiscus! Angelface baby! My first blooms of the season! This is my blue hibiscus. ... » Read More

Veggie Tales!


One of my loves is a Christian cartoon called VeggieTales. The best way to explain them is animated vegetables teaching the word of God in a simple, fun and silly way. I am a proud to be a single adult that loves these wonderful cartoons (no matter how many funny looks I get when my phone rings...lol). I proudly admit to all that I love VeggieTales.   On my hardest days that everything seems to go wrong, Veggie Tales comes to the rescue and make me smile and giggle. I have the sewing fabric that I have made personal items with, cd's, dvd's. I even made the songs into ring tones for my cell phone.   Here are a few clips and songs of this ... » Read More

Christmas Blessings!


Christmas 2011 was in way my first 'real' Christmas. I don't know if it was my big move to my new home, or the fact I have had long standing prayers answered. The joy I felt this year was truly a blessing. I know I am at the place I'm meant to be in my life now, and I love every moment of it. What I loved most is seeing so many loving caring people, with huge hearts. It was truly heart warming.  I got unexpected and loving gifts from people that know me very well and even got gifts for my Zorro. I put all of my heart into the gifts I planned for people as well. I have taken a step with braking out of my shell  and decided to take my publisher... » Read More

I forgot what sleep is!   I am sooo... » Read More

Inspiraton!


For a few months I have not been inspired to craft. That means painting and sewing. So my poor sewing machine has sat unused, and my paint brushes dry. I refuse to craft without my heart being involved. I would be betraying who I am and what my name means. I have to craft with my heart, or it doesn't get done. The trading event we had this weekend has inspired me to craft again. This weekend alone I have sewn three custom orders, four out of six studio projects, and painted two out of four of my paining projects. All this in the middle of trading and packaging the trades. It was about time I shook the dust out of my waiting projects. It felt... » Read More

Hello!


I am a first time blogger. I have no idea where to start or what to write, but here it goes anyway!I wanted to give a big thank you to all that has helped me get my studio up and going. This is my first time selling on and off line, so this is all new to me. It means more to me than anyone one will know. I am a fun loving person who loves to live life and laugh when the times get hard. I will all ways have bad days from time to time, but don't we all. I would rather laugh at the crassness of this world. My health is not good and life is stressful, but I refuse to let it take me down. Life is a roller coaster...why not look at the positive and... » Read More
