Journal covers....

I took some prints of my artwork, and embellished them with papers and collage pieces and came up with some journal covers.  I thought they came out pretty cute....Here's a couple...

Quote from a friend....

My friend wrote these words...I just want to share.
Artists
are risk takers, in self expression such that they drop the trappings or 
protective wrappings and challenges the public to love or hate the 
results of creation. Respect the history but put your interpretation on
it

Another sneek peek....

Here is the first angel-almost finished-she just needs a sealant of some kind-I haven't decided what to use.
ANGEL OF HOPE....

A little sneek peek....

Here is what I've been working on lately.  This is my idea that I want to present to major gift companies..  This is what came to me in the middle of the night the other night.  This is the passion that has been consuming me the last few days...I can see it in so many mediums...canvas's, flat dolls, soft dolls, ornaments, calenders and journal covers....I can see the whole display in my mind.  This is the first half of my idea...the other half has to do with contacting a publisher and telling them my crazy idea for a book...
If you like what you see here, please add me to your prayers.  I think I can use all the positive energy I can get. :)
Wish me luck....

Love, Kelly

 

Amazing today....

Melody posted a question on BRAVE GIRLS BLOG, asking us how we are going to be amazing today...This is my answer....

How am I going to be amazing today???? Well…I have this passion in my heart right now…it’s a passion for creating something and writing something. I’ve been knowing that the idea would come to me, and it finally has. It’s clear as day and I know what to do, and I feel in my heart it will be successfull…But…of course there’s always that But….I hate that But…doubt keeps trying to sneak in-I’ve been seeing it out of the corner of my eye and it’s little, but it’s still there. So I keep brushing it away and telling myself to listen to my heart. That’s the amazing thing I’m doing today…I’m brushing away that sneaky, little doubt, and I’m going forward with my project. I’m listening to my heart anyway. And I’m creating with passion and love and enthusiasm. I’m believing in my HEART!

When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning,by dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing,then we truly live. - Greg Anderson

Read this quote today and just had to share...xo

Floating....

Today I am floating on a cloud.  My mind feels like it could burst with creativity.  I had an idea wake me in the middle of the night and it won't let go of me.  I know a little bit of my future...I can actually see it right now.  I know that sounds a little strange, but sometimes you just "know".  This "knowing" doesn't happen very often, but when it does, it's the best feeling in the world.  It has happened to me before, and has proved to be the truth.  It sort of gives me goose bumps in a wonderful way.  I would so appreciate any prayers or thoughts to help me focus and make this idea of mine become a reality.  I believe that it will, but any good mojo will help me to be efficient and focused, not two of my best traits-hahaha.  So thank you for any well wishes you can spare to send my way.  I will keep you updated, I promise!   Love, Kelly
