Photography, Summer Goals, A Good Cause + Hello Summer!

Pin It

Just dropping in to say a little hello, its been too long and I miss you all. Anxious for summer break! Also an offer to share, along with news!! I just finished one of my personal journal books. Hooray! Now, onto a new one. I hadn't picked up my paints in quite awhile and have been missing painting! (accept to volunteer at Sammie's school for play backdrops)

Sammie gets out of school in a week so maybe having the time I spend in the car driving to school, sitting in  the parking lot chaos...  I can fit in some of my goals. Hello Summer!! Here is a photograph I took and altered with a frame. Soon I will share some new art!


Summer Goals: 
#1. re- kindle my artwork
#2. get my site completed to migrate this one. I know, I know...talk, talk, talk lol (don't forget I am running DearCreatives.com Creativity, Crafting & Inspired Living)
#3. add the rest of my work into my shop & have a summer sale!
#4  share my 1year anniversary with a giveaway for DearCreatives and your welcome to join in!
#5  remember not to compare where I am, what I am doing to focus on what makes me grow creatively with my art work!

A Good Cause! 


If any of you sew I just blogged about a great organization, along with their current project just ending, but still accepting Aprons for Haiti until late July! Craft Hope's Project #17. Feel free to drop by and find out how to help, make one, send it off and in turn they send it to Haitian women in need....I posted lots of free patterns and tutorials on DearCreatives. The most current post Still Time Craft Hope Update will take to needed info.

I am looking to catching up on my reading this summer too!
