Why start a blog...?

I was in America recently for a very sad reason [see my niece's blogs, Emily's and Maggie's]... inspired by their beautiful mother Janice - who was so incredibly talented and creative - her needlework, her jewelry, her garden, her lovely decorated home.

I am very arty myself [I like to think so]. I keep a daily diary - tape things in - save tickets - ephemera that I find along the way.  I hope that by starting a blog - I can inspire others and continue to challenge myself artistically, creatively.  I welcome your feedback...your ideas...your inspirations!

Where to begin...one blog that inspires me is Ali Edwards - she has a yearly word which I decided to also adopt three years ago. 

2008 was LAUGH


2009 was BREATHE (the word is inside the heart)

2010 is ENJOY (wooden letters I covered in scrapbooking papers and sits above my kitchen door frame)


I have created artworks around my house and at work to remind me of my yearly theme.

I hope you ENJOY my blog!  I know I will ENJOY inspiring you!
