Alex has given us GD’s a carte blanche pass to design whatever we wish to for her followers. Woot Woot!

Looking back... we met through a KinderStampO blog hop about a year ago. Although we never physically met I feel that I’ve known Alex forever.  Glad to have her as my cyber friend.  She always has wonderful tutorials and fantastic inspirations throughout her site.

Total AWESOMENESS!

I have decided to design a

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!
