Share the Love!

Hi Everyone,

Valentine’s Day, a holiday which focuses on L*O*V*E, is fast approaching, and I invite you to join me on a quest to Share the Love… by sharing our creativity.

Love is the most powerful force in the universe. There is a.

It’s Always Something…

Hi Everyone,

What a week! My scan computer crashed, which sadly resulted in the loss of the scans for the Bible Journaling book I’m co-authoring with my friend Regina Yoder. Some of the designs I can just rescan… but many of the images were step-by-step tutorials, where I draw and scan.

My Stencil Adventure!

Hi Everyone,

As regular blog readers know, I recently designed a line of Inspired Journaling Stencils for The Crafter’s Workshop, which were specifically created with Bible Journalers in mind.

I’ve been designing stencils for TCW for a few years, but believe it or not,.

Freedom, Fireworks, Cards & Connections

Hi Everyone,

I’ve been on the road for the past two weeks, and got home just in time to celebrate the 4th of July. Since fireworks are such a big part of America’s Independence Day, I thought I’d share this Zenspirations® Dangle firework design.

Remembering with Love

Hi Everyone,

I have a favor to ask– will you please help me bring comfort and hope to healing hearts? I’ve created a new coloring card, Remembering with Love, and I’d like to share it with as many people as possible. I’m asking you to download and print out several copies.

Creative Connections

Hi Everyone,

There is something incredibly special about being part of a group of people who share your creative passions, and I am fortunate to belong to more than one such group. This weekend I delightedly introduced members of the Zenspirations® Create, Color, Pattern, Play community to members of the Lettering Arts.

The Happy Dance!

Hi Everyone,

I’m doing ‘the happy dance’ tonight, because at long last I have finished all the revisions that I wanted to make to my Kickstarter book, When You Lose Someone You Love. What an incredible journey this has been! I’m really pleased with how the book has turned out, and.

Loving Letters & Caring Cards

Hi Everyone,

Since April is National Card and Letter Writing Month, I want to devote this week’s blog to the wonderful and meaningful art of written correspondence. I started out my career as a greeting card designer, and of all the different products I design, greeting cards hold a special.

Reflect & Renew

Hi Everyone,

As a faith-based artist, few things give me greater pleasure than creating designs to celebrate religious holidays. This week, I wanted to share some of the Easter and Passover designs I have been working on.

I was honored when our local Jewish newspaper, The Heritage, asked if they could.

Written in Stone

Hi Everyone,

There are so many things I want to share tonight! First of all, for those who are in Central Florida, I just found out that there are a few spaces left in the two workshops (Zenspiration® Dangle Designs at 11:00, and Zenspirations Creative Coloring Techniques at 3:30) I’ll.

The Color of LOVE

Hi Everyone,

Love is like the wind… you can’t see it, but you know it is there because you FEEL it. Love is an incredibly powerful force; it transcends language, time and place and brings hope and healing to those going through challenges. The love in our hearts serves as.

Think Pink! Free Downloadable Coloring Pages!

Hi Everyone,

For most children October means Halloween– costumes & candy. For most women October has come to mean Breast Cancer awareness month. While it is important to raise awareness about Breast Cancer, and encourage women to get regular check-ups, I think it is also important to reach out to.
