Summer News!
Oh, how I looovvee Summer! Wonderfully-filled days of sunshine, working in the garden, strawberry lemonades and key lime pies. Oh yeah...trips to the water (lakes, rivers and beaches). Our family the trips to the beach are truly priceless. Nothing like nature to inspire us.

Wondering how things going here at my home studio? Well, I have begun working on a new collection of paintings which I hope to start releasing soon. This art collection is filled with whim and light-heart messages....totally uplifting.  I love to paint.  My art table is filled with brushes, acrylic paints, watercolors, pencils and inks...oh yeah..lots and lots of paper.  Painting transports me to a whole different place where time does not exists and hours go by unnoticed....just paint washes and me....I love to look around my little studio and see it filled with canvases, ribbons, markers,  trays of colorful papers and sketchbooks (my dear sketchbooks!). ....sorry...got carried away.  :)

I'm traveling next week to Wichita, Kansas to attend The Angel Company Annual Seminar. Is going to be such a creative and fun week! Is very special to see all my artsy friends, scrapbook and stamp our hearts out!! I always return home so inspired.

The BellaFlor paper collection* (which I designed for The Angel Company) is still available for a limited time (until supplies last) and for a very special price. I love this collection and I'm thrilled to see its return. If you are interested in purchasing your very own collection, please visit my TAC storefront at: http://mabelle.ismyangel.net/Products/ProductDetails.aspx?prodid=4319&cid=249&ct=t

Little more info on BellaFlor collection:
*The Bella Flor™ Classic Soar With It Collection™ includes 16, 12 x 12 sheets of beautifully patterned paper (one sheet of each design), one sheet of small cardstock alphabet stickers, one sheet of large alphabet stickers, and one sheet with an assortment of coordinating die-cut cardstock tags and embellishments.

{Thank you for your constant support and friendship, it means the world to me.}

Dear ones, have a fun-filled Summer!

Sending cheery wishes your way,
