Sending Thoughts and Prayers

I am truly sadden by the events in Oklahoma yesterday, I can not even begin to comprehend the damage, heartbreak and horror they are going through right now.  I have not watched much TV coverage, having two small children and one who is terrified of thunderstorms already, I feel it is for the best.  I have been drawing quite a bit and this tragedy really made an impression on me, so I drew up a special digital stamp for everyone.

My PSA for today:  Sadly during this time of grief, people will try to take advantage of others and their generosity (these tragedies bring out the worst in people).  Please make sure the charity you are giving to is a legitimate charity.

If you are looking to communicate with loved ones, please use www.safeandwell.org.

If you would like to donate please check out this link of reputable organizations to help the people affected by the tornadoes.

Freebie Friday - Graduation 2013

Congratulations and we are very proud of all the Graduates of 2013 (especially my cousin Katlyn and my neighbor Caroline)!  

Your journey has just begun, remember to stop smell the roses, listen to stories of your elders (they won't be around forever), laugh everyday, listen to music, doodle, money isn't the only thing that matters in life, be kind (to animals, plants, people) and remember if you put it on the internet it isn't private.

Monday Release - Insects

I hope everyone had a fantastic Mother's Day Weekend.  We went to the pool (I got sun burned) and my amazing husband finished trimming my azalea bushes back, brought me breakfast in bed and made a fantastic meal for me.  I also got to work on some new items as well as read which was a very nice change of pace for me.

I decided to change the Butterflies Section of the Digi Shoppe to Insects because it allows me to add Bees, Lady Bugs, and Moths to the collection.

I also updated the Freebie Friday Section so all the Freebies are in one place.  You can visit that section here.

I hope everyone like the new releases and don't forget to check back on Friday for another Freebie.

Freebie Friday - Forget-Me-Not

I am on a flower kick recently and with Mother's Day on Sunday I thought I would add to my flowers. I drew Forget-Me-Nots in honor of my great-grandmother.  Mimi (my great grandma) loved Forget-Me-Nots matter of fact the first one I ever saw was on her grave.  Over the years I never thought much about them until I got a packet of seeds in the mail with a note from my grandma.

"Now that you are a mother you will always look for ways to be remembered long after you are gone.  The seeds are for Forget-Me-Nots, Mimi's favorite flower.  She would go around with a packet of seeds and sprinkle them unsuspectedly as she passed (like a seed bomb).  So I am giving you the seeds to remember Mimi and to make the most of those Forget-Me-Not moments.  Love, Grandma Dona"

I never met Mimi, I knew of her she was a fabulous cook, a nurse, and she had a beautiful voice.  This story of the seeds helped me make a connection with her, a connection I never had before.  I love to think about Mimi walking (dancing) along sprinkling seeds along the way.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Mother's Day, I will hopefully get to spend time in my garden digging in the dirt, sipping Mint Juleps (it sounds so good).

Monday Release - NEW Dollar Stamps

New Dollar Stamps!

I have been working on so many new styles and stamps, I thought it would be fun to revisit some of the cartoon style stamps.

I hope everyone has a great week and don't forget to stop by on Friday for our Freebie Friday :)

Freebie Friday - Irises

I love irises they were the flowers for my wedding.  I have had problems growing them in the Deep South, I am sure if winter would have actually visited us this year they might have bloomed.  I am aware that some people are still in winter mode (the U.P. of Michigan and Northern Minnesota) and Florida is already in summer, we are having a pleasant spring (almost too pleasant) which means July and August are going to be brutal.

I hope everyone has a lovely weekend we have a busy weekend but it should be fun!

Don't forget about our Giveaway if we reach 150 Fans on Facebook I will be doing a Giveaway!  We will also be doing a second Giveaway if we reach 50 Followers on our blog!
