sistahs, after over a year of knowing me

you understand how I am at this point, no?  I am COMPULSIVE… I am IMPULSIVE.. I am PASSIONATE about everything and everyone I love… I am EXCITEABLE (is there an ‘e’ in there??), I am a chubba wubba but a cutey wootey (shhhh.. let’s not ever discuss the chubby thing again n’k?).. so that is why I had to show you something NOW.  I couldn’t wait another MINIT (remember how I loved the spelling I made up?).. I have been working quite closely for a little while now with the most PHENOMENAL artist… not only is she talented but she is a kindred spirit.  HONESTLY.. a TRUE sistah.  We have bonded and it has become as if we share the same brain (not that I have much to spare at this moment– a little fried).  I cannot tell you her name right now… the rest of the line will be revealed the day before I leave for CHA… LOL.. not the whole line but perhaps you will meet a few of Ella and LOO LOO’s friends.  I am extremely.. and I mean EXTREMELY excited about this line which has already reached ENDLESS expectations, drawings etc… you know me.. GO BIG or GO HOME (did I just make that up?  honestly).. so I decided to go BIG on this one… Their names are Ella (after mystery artists’ daughter.. you will ‘meet ‘ them in 2 weeks) and LOOLOO (a nickname I call jayden.. was gonna spell it lulu but you can’t get the juicy LOO LOO sound.. KWIM? She is the elephant.  You will meet them now but you will meet more of them a little LAYTAH.  I am sooo in love with her sistahs.  SOOOO in love with both of them.. honestly, I believe I am as passionate about this line as I am about the bellas… being a mom of young children, I totally sympathize with this princess ella.  Jayden puts on a FLOUUFFFY dress all the time and is totally ELLA.  Ella has a boyfriend too but shhhhh can’t tell you what his name is yet.  This has nothing to do with my next spectacular reveal on Wednesday which I am not giving you any sneaky peaky’s on.. this is COMPLETELY separate.  I just couldn’t hold her back anymore.

Do you lovey ELLA and LOO LOO too?  Once you meet MA (mystery artist..LOL) you will understand what type of heart and sense of humour these images came from.. the artist exudes the same type of PASSION and sense of humour as we do.  YOU WILL LOVEY her.. not as much as I do though 🙂

Meet Ella and LOO LOO.. they just met.  They are new friends.  And they will be best friends forever.. just like we are.

 

Mwah to da sistahs who are ELLAS and have LOO LOO’s in their lives

bag o’ inspiration

I have now started a corkboard of inspiration (sounds romantic no?  something about the word CORKBOARD that does it everytime..LOL)… I have been approached many times with questions as to what inspires me.. colors, doohickies (sp?), embellishments, ribbon.. and here is the answer.. Nicky and I decided to put together a bag of inspiration.. and we decided to coordinate it to the Basic Grey 2 scoops collection as we LOOOOVED the colours sooo much.  It was so much fun shopping and matching and playing and putting them all together…and you KNOW when you go shopping for goodies like this that THEY WILL ALL FIT!!! These colours go so nicely together that you really don’t need the patterned paper but it just goes together so wellllll…..!  In this bag o’ you will receive 8 die cut cards (either scalloped or gatefold), a bag of exclusively mixed baubles (75-100 per each colour valued alone at $4.99), 6 white envelopes, a bag of pretty pretty flowers (paper with metallic paper ones as well- baubles are SOOO very nice in the middle of them), 6 yards total of ribbon WOUND BY ME.. you should see me with a ribbon spinner in my hand.. a DANGEROUS combo.  Anyway, it is just a trial, fun to put together and just nice to look at.

When sistahs ask me what inspires me, i don’t have one answer.. I am like a walking ‘nerve’.. constantly stimulated, constantly thinking; every colour I see, every pattern I see, upholstery, art, baby clothes.. you name it!!

let me know if you like the bag’ o inspiration

 

Mwah to da sistahs who need NO inspirin’
