Another beautiful Monday and time to post my Summer of Color 2012 challenge for week 3. I can't believe it's already halfway through…only three more challenges… So, this week's challenge was Baseball Nut…the inspiration photo from Baskin-Robbins and my color palette, again created in Photoshop with the color picker. When I initially examined the challenge […]

January 1, 2012 I officially opened a journaling e-course on my Ning group, Just Be Yourself called “Soar.” Soar’s purpose in a nutshell, is to help us become the women we desire to be and to help us make the most of each day we’ve been given…so that we don’t merely exist, but that we […]

I have exciting news to share! For the past several months I've been hard at work developing something I'm really passionate about!

It's time for this month's Creative Color Challenge! This month the color theme is "Tranquil Blues."
