My wonderful blog friends.....I am blown away....

Hi Everyone...
Blogging is so much fun and it is amazing how many talented and wonderful people you can meet from all around the world....I received a few packages in the mail that really made me smile...the first is from one Cynthia DiBlasi , a wonderful artist and illustrator that always pops by my blogs and makes my day with her sweet comments....she created this wonderful stained glass angel ornament....isn't she adorable.....She just opened up her own Etsy Shop with wonderful beaded work....pop by and say hello....



then yesterday my husband picked up the mail I got another special package. to my surprise the most talented Sherry made me a special piece of fiber art ...and I am still blown away by her kindness and creativity...you can tell she knows about my cupcake love...

Sherry has two Esty Shops with some very clever designs....her Mixed Media Esty Shop and her cute Baby Shop called Sophies Babies...you should pop by and check out these wonderful shops...

She added this wonderful embroidered message for me...I am truly touched!!!

I have both these wonderful art pieces in my Studio and they bring a smile to my face each and every day...I am blessed to meet so many wonderful and talented people...all with such giving hearts....

Get inspired - My Artist friends....and my sweet sweet Husband Brad

Hi Everyone...I am so grateful for so many wonderful things in my life...Family and friends make everyday wonderful and I wanted to post today about some of the sweet people I am blessed to know.....

Firstly, I would like to say thank you to my Dearest Husband Brad...who makes my life a dream come true...he is the reason I can live my dream to create art each and every day...and he came home last night with some flowers for me....(for no reason other then he is happy to have me in his life) ....Bless his heart....
He always blows me away with his kindness and loving nature....


and now I will introduce you to some wonderful and talented artists I have met through blogging...I am grateful for their friendships and love that we can network and share our lives no matter where we live....


Marianne is from the Netherlands...but she travels the world each and every week it seems...Her blog is on my daily list as she has the most wonderful posts with her art, her loves, and her travels...

She is as sweet as they come....and sent me this Mandala she painted...She had it on her blog and asked that we all take a moment to try and name it....I titled it..."Lunar Eclipse" and she sent it to me!!! how sweet of her....she was in South Africa when she created this piece and sent it to me...

I was also lucky enough to meet the talented BJ Lantz....

You have all probably seen some eye catching art in shops all over...and more then likely the amazing artwork was the work of BJ....she has so much insight into the world of licensing your art that I am blown away...not to mention that she is one of the sweetest and most sharing souls out there...she send me e-mails with all kinds of wonderful information and I love her work...she is truly an inspiration...you have to pop by her blog and introduce yourselves to her...just say I sent you! She sent me all kinds of colourful goodies...I love her art!!!



and last but not least my dearest Kathleen, who is one of the most amazing illustrators out there....her work and style are warm and comforting. She has so many books on the go and you have to pop by her blog to check out her artwork...Whenever I feel down I just head over there and right away I am awakened to a new look on everything around me....

We keep in touch with e-mails but I sure wish we lived closer so we could sketch and drink lattes together.... She sent me the cutest note card with one of her wonderful illustrations and a cute mini card....I love it!

All this art will be framed and in my studio where I can be inspired each and every day....

Make sure you pop by their blogs and say hello...you won't be disappointed! if anything you might make a new friend that will inspire you!

Have a wonderful day!!!
Hugs
Diana
