Forced Creative Vacation…

Aug 14, 2009

For the past few weeks I have had back spasms which has caused me to take a forced cre­ative vaca­tion. Which by the way is com­plete and total tor­ture for me. But sit­ting and cre­at­ing for any length of time is just too painful. Since I really love shar­ing tuto­ri­als on my blog and hav­ing the issue of not being able to sit upright for too long a period this has not allowed much blog time. And since I am work­ing on my All Hal­lows Eve online work­shop my sit­ting time is very lim­ited. So what I plan on doing for the next sev­eral weeks is share some tips and prod­ucts I really love. I get emails sent to me all the time ask­ing what type of tools I use and pre­fer for cer­tain projects… what kind of glit­ter (asked that A LOT) etc. So I will share info on things I have found or learned along the way that I feel help make the cre­ative process easier.

Next up… I have had a few excit­ing things come about these past few weeks. I got to see some beauty shots of my projects that will be fea­tured in my book. This is so excit­ing and I can­not wait for it’s release in Jan­u­ary. Again the not being able to share is tor­ture. I have been work­ing on this cre­ative jour­ney for nearly 2 years. In a way it has seemed so long and yet in some ways so short. But the end is in sight and I can­not wait.

The next neat thing is I will be teach­ing a work­shop at CHA-W. This will be a vin­tage themed fam­ily mini ban­ner filled full of fab­u­lous prod­ucts from my book spon­sors and here is some­thing super neat… each par­tic­i­pant in the class will receive a copy of my book. I can’t wait to teach this work­shop and show off my book. There was a lot of heART and soul put into all 100 projects.

Next my “Home­spun Inspi­ra­tion” online work­shop begins tomor­row, Sat­ur­day, August 15th. I love the can­vas project we are mak­ing this month. Below is a lit­tle sneak peek of next months project. Remem­ber this work­shop is a three month work­shop and runs until Novem­ber 1st.

Homespun Inspiration Project #2

If you have any ques­tions on prod­ucts or tools that you would like some info on please email me and I will add your ques­tions to the list.

Wish­ing you all a won­der­ful weekend.
