You are the master's canvass

Good morning blogland beauties!

I wanted to update you a bit on my blogland absence...

I found it necessary to take a bit of a sabbatical. Taking time out for the big things in life is really important even though its not necessarily easy to find the time.

Im glad to be back and have a new perspective!

I've been talking with my closest friends about how as women that seem compelled to "do it all" we often feel overwhelmed but can't seem to stop the merry go round of life (sometimes we just need to give ourselves permission to soak in the tub and NOT answer the phone)!

You know the drill; kids, spouse, carpool, soccer, laundry, pets running a business and the list goes on and on. Well after a few giggles and laughs among us an amazing idea was born........as you know Launch Your Creativity is meant to inspire and encourage women to pursue their creative passions but its not easy for everyone to come to Southern California for the events,SO......I am so excited to tell you that "Truth Over Tea" a new video series is coming this Fall. More details will follow in the coming weeks.

Im sure your heart will be encouraged as you hear what this amazing group of women have to say about juggling life!

The amazing panel includes:

Cheryl Turner, Paris In A Cup

Lidy Baars, French GardenHouse

Debi Ward-Kennedy, Author and Stylist

Sylvia Asmussen, Paris Cowgirl & Madam Palooza

A Fresh Start Begins tonight!

Hey Beautiful Girls I'd love for you to join me for my new online workshop,

"A Fresh Start For Your Creative Heart".

This class was born from the feedback you gave me after I posted

"It's Your Turn to Heal Your Heart"

from the "Inspiration Delivered Series"(the link is below).

Here is the what, when, why & where:

What: A 3 week online class to restore and heal your heart.

If you are stuck in a creative rut because "stuff" in life has hurt you and caused you to come to a creative standstill this is just what you need! We will talk about what's holding you back from being who you are and who you are meant to be through your creative expression. We will work in a journal, develop our life's mission statement and create an Inspiration board/book(your choice). No special skills needed.

When: Classes begin on Monday, February 25th @6:00 p.m. This is a closed group so only your classmates can see the contents and the forum conversations. You can work at your own pace. Registration opens January 1st.

Why: Sometimes we need to know we are not alone, that we matter, that we are loved, mixed with a little insight, a pinch of healing, and a fresh perspective to get back on track.

And beautiful girl you are so loved!

Where: Sign up at www.LaunchYourCreativity.Ning.Com

First register as a member and create your personal page. Then go to "A Fresh start For Your Creative Heart" listed under Groups. There you will pay for your class and you will receive a confirmation email.

Details: Class costs $45 for the 3 week class. You will need a few items such as pen/pencil and a notebook or journal to write in. You have the choice to create an inspiration board or book. You can use any medium you'd like to create your inspirational items: pencils, paints, fabrics, mixed media, etc. We will post and share our life's mission statement, inspiration items, and share our dreams.

**You can jump into the class anytime this week, all content will remain posted for 2 months.
