If you are just visiting and would like
to start at the top click

Well you have reached the end of this hop
as I offer my views of
this time of year
Summer left rather fast for me
Children are back in school and days are cooler

Autumn is a beautiful time of the year
who doesn't like the leaves
turning in front of our eyes
from fresh bright green to
burnt orange, cramberry, chocolate brown, amber, and green

The leaves fall gracefully
from the trees - to the ground
If you pay attention
you can hear them tumbling down
the street, road or in your yard

Awwh the wind is brisk and crisp

Suggling into your favorite blankets or cover ups
reading a good book, watching a movie, or crafting
family time, partner time, me time
sipping a beverage with a little snack

As I get older these are the moments that
cherish

Meet the KinderStampO Guest Design Team Blog Hop

If you arrived here from Irit Shalom http://iritshalom.blogspot.com/
then you are in the right place!!

Honored and previlaged to be a part of the
KinderStampO Guest Design Team

Jess is a wonderful person to rub shoulders with
She is always inspiring and encouraging
She has accomplished so much in the time I've known her
From her own rubber stamp line to metal charms
WOW
what's next

I say "I want to be like her when I grow up!" lol

A little about me
LIVE.
I am a proud wife, mother of 3 kiddos living in the Mid-West. I also do that other thing - work full time. Originally from Chicago, Illinois and now in East Chicago, Indiana.  (I guess I couldn't move too far from my old stomping grounds). My hubby and mom are the best cheerleaders ever!

CRAFT.
..is a small word with great substance - so much to learn. I've been desiging since 1994. I pour out a part of myself into every creation I make.  I try to be "UNEEK" and think outside the box with a "I can do that" attitude. Hoping to grab someone else's hand out of the box to see what is out there. 
INSPIRE.
I seek my inspiration through people that are genuine and passionate as myself. If you just stand still for one moment, take a DEEP breath and look around your inspiration is everywhere. From a tiny rock on the ground to the movement of the sky. Even music moves me to be artistic.  The sky is the limit!
FINAL THOUGHTS
Why try to hoard an idea as oppose to sharing it with everyone? You can have a slice of the pie too. Heck, I get excited when I get a little experience or knowledge.
Always remember to give credit when credit is due.

THANK YOU JESS!
