back to normal…

happy monday bloggers!  yes, a happy monday indeed as things are finally back to normal around the studio.  i was happy that i had this past weekend to get caught up everything and lucky for me the inspiration hit right away (thank goodness).  it’s weird that even with such a creative job, deadlines can really consume my creativity sometimes.  so once the emails and paperwork were caught up on, i immersed myself in inks, paints, embellishments, papers, and just focused on the creative process.  i reminded myself to not stress over the deadlines, but instead “enjoy the journey”.  that was really the trick, to just be creative without expectations, and it happened – like magic.  today i still have a table full of supplies, a pile of finished projects, with just one more to complete to send them off.  thanks for the kind words of encouragement on the blog this weekend – it’s amazing what 2 days of uninterrupted time can do…

i thought it would be great to give some creative prizes away to a few lucky bloggers.  just leave a comment about what creative project you’re working on, and you just may win some things to help you out.  winners will be announced tomorrow right here on the blog – see you then…t!m
