Warratahstree Art and Creative Inspiration

    It is the big launch of Stampin UP! 2014 Annual Catalogue and I am really excited about my first Blog Hop with ESAD.    “What is ESAD? ESAD stands for "Extra Special Australasian Demonstrators" and is a facebook group just for Australian and New Zealand Independent Stampin' Up! demonstrators. We love what we do & love to share with our customers, friends and blog visitors. We also share what we love in our ESAD Demonstrator community, through swaps, challenges, sharing knowledge, ideas& friendship and we're always there to help and support each other.  As part of the launch of the Stampin Up!

I thought I would share a few cards I have made and recieved in Stampin Up! exchanges as a part of introducing Karing Card Club for bloggers in Australia.  I have been asked to help co-host the Karing Card Club for Australia.  Karing Card club was created by Kendra at  Kreative Creationz . The Karing Card Club is meant to encourage one another through the exchange of a card via snail mail. What a great way to encourage one another by sending a card of encouragement to a fellow blogger.

From this form we will pair up people to send either store bought cards or hand made cards to one another. Each month there is a monthly theme. ...

The question was posed by   +Niki A  @ ( My Life Remixing Blog )    While I was so flattered to be asked that question, I too am still finding my niche' in the area of my Fimo jewelry.  I want it to be unique, something someone else is not making but also items that will sell. I asked myself the same question once I decided to sell my artwork.   I have always been involved in craft, DIY, art, and many other creative activities.  Making the step from crafter to artist was a long gradual process for me.  For many years I made things for me, because I liked the look of something or I wanted to learn a new technique.   With the encouragement of my friends and family, I decided to try making my hobby my busine...
