Totally Girly Canvas Art

A few things I have been working on for a while, and finally finished them

Yes, they are for sale too...

This video really speaks to me as an artist. I really feel like I have accomplished so much in my life already. And the opportunity to run my own business, doing something I love was amazing! So, I want to share this video with all of you. It really gets to the heart of things...

Christmas Banner

If you haven't made a banner yet, you are missin' out!!

This was so much fun!

and now I want to make one for every event

and Holiday

can you imagine all the different banners you can have...

 This banner and all that I make for you are one of a kind 

that means each one is different depending on availability of supplies

 I cut out the black with my pazzle

so I do have it saved 

if you want to order some to make your own 

check out the Studio A boutique

 I had a pack of  K&Co. felt stickers that were perfect!

 I used pop dots to raise the smaller tree up for more depth.

 Under a few of the ornaments I just glued a folded piece of paper.

for more depth fold more like an acordian

 Hope you liked this as much as I did! 

I will make custom order banners for you 

just go to the Studio A boutique for more details

Lots of Love,

Super BIG News.....

We All miss the Castle don't we.

I know we do, and each of us for different reasons.

For so many of you it was a place to stop in, talk and chat, 

relax, or pick up some supplies.

Many of you needed some inspiration, direction, 

or just for me to pick it all out for you.

What I miss the most is all of You.

 Yes, the connection I made with each and everyone of you

has helped me become who I am today.

  I can be creative anywhere,
but spending time with You, made my day. 

 Some of my best friends I have met during the years of
owning and running the Castle.  

One of my very best of friends, is without a doubt,
 Patty Marks.  

She came into the shop, and we just clicked.
She is the hardest working person I have ever met.
She started helping me, and keeping me focused. 

I taught her how to pick out papers, and
how to be a more positive person (her words).

She loved the atmosphere of the shop and said
 it just made a difference to her life and so many others.

Through time and work we have taught each other a lot 

about art, scrapbooking, friendship, and more.  

All that to say, I am so proud of Patty.  

She has developed her knowledge base in the industry and 

is now ready to dive into a brand new adventure in her life....

We NOW have a
new LOCAL
