Feeling light, clean, and well a bit uncluttered.

Hello darlings! I am writing to try to help you explore this feeling I have inside with you. It is a blissful feeling. I have done so many little changes in a short period of time. I have reflected, I have taken time out to care for me- yes I just said it! Time to worry about me and not what everyone else needs, I take my mommy hat off a few times through out the day and stop to smell the roses.  I do yoga- drink green goodness everyday, I have tried to de-clutter my mind, there was cob webs in there!!! I have begun to try to meditate. I have uncluttered areas of our home.  With each day that passes I couldn't be happier I purchased this book "crazy sexy diet by Kris Carr, she truly is a inspiration.  I know how it sounds another fad diet, but this is a life changing experience.

I feel like a better person than I was when I started. I got off facebook & changed my email to not get all those trash emails!  So I unplugged is what Kris Carr would say. It is amazing the feeling of not having to connect, it is liberating! I get the computer on just for moments here and there, Then of course for my beloved blog.

I know this isn't exactly a crafty blog, but sometimes I think we need to check in with ourselves and feel good and clean and new.  Yes I drink a lot of green juice! I put in just about every veggie imaginable. I add 1 fruit to 3 veggies. I blend with my super blender vita-mixer. (Love it!) I found it on ebay at a great price- it had been barley used.

I can't tell you all the secrets, I want you to go out and read this inspirational book.  I have RA and it says you can reduce your levels of inflammation to control disease, or prevent. I pray after all is said and done that I will continue with my green goodness in a glass and feel like a new person in every way imaginable!

Cheers to the green yummy juice! Hello blissful feelings!

I've missed you, my loved blog land friends.

   Hi there. I know I have been away for some time from my postings. But I am back, ready for more crafting and sharing joy, and feeling free in my own skin. That is my hope for you this new year, that when you look yourself in the mirror you aren't too hard on yourself & your art. That we stop feeling less because we feel like we juggle 100 things so how could we possibly be doing it all right? Well you are, you are doing your best to be the best you that you can be- no one can ask more of you!  That is my wish for this year that I enjoy my art without judging to harshly. That I allow myself to be simply who I am, and I believe through art and creativity you are at your best, because you are taking a moment to breath, to be, time for you!  All of those are really good things!


Other than that I have some fun stamping. I did this for gift tags and cards.

I found stamps out of the dollar bin at Jo-Ann's. I used my beloved black ink, got my fav colored pencils out and glitter & glitter glue!

Once I had everything out I started to create, I was never one who usually filled in my stamps, I would stamp them, age them, added a bead of glitter glue, embossed a bit, the usual. Yet I never did the simple thing and used my basic tools and the results were fantastic! It was a kid friendly activity too, which is always nice around Christmas time.

Here are the results!  You could do this with valentines treasures for your kids. Little love notes. Maybe hidden in your child's lunchbox with a fun candy?
