October is Domestic Violence Awareness month!  Domestic Abuse is an issue I feel very strongly about.  I have been an advocate working to end domestic violence for over a decade now.  I wanted to share some of that with everyone as well as bring some out in the form of art.  I am inspired by the fearless women I work with everyday!  Please join me in putting an end to domestic violence!  Speak up!  Help out! #nomoreviolence

Wow it has been 3 months since my last post!  I have been playing with my kids and enjoying the summer at the ocean and the lakes! I have tried to make some time to keep creating and designing, but totally slacked off with my blog.   I am hoping to get back into it since school has started and I will be able to focus a bit more without the boys always interrupting me!!!  

I thought I would start with these fun cards that I just made...
My girlfriends twins just had a birthday and I made a few cards for the kids!!!  

 This card I made because I knew I wanted to make something fun for a 3 year old boy.  I found this monkey sticker and thought it was perfect so I used this to inspire me.  Designed the card around the sticker and then used some Gelatos to make a fun background and cut out a tree for him to hang from!!! Just an easy little card that was really fun to make.  

Yes, this was a Minnie Mouse request!!! My friends little girl adores Minnie Mouse!!! I wanted to make her a special little card with Minnie in mind.  I love how this turned out.  Its simple but bold and bright!  I used my circle punch and some layered paper and stamp to make this Minnie Mouse card.  It screams little girl!

This next card was made for a little girl as well.  I decided to stick with the themed cards and went totally Hello Kitty crazy! Again, this design is simple but fun and definitely girly! 

I am taking some time for ME this month and hope to keep posting and creating!  After all it is STAMPTEMBER!!!!!!
