MPS CHRISTMAS FREEBIE

Hi Friends,

Happy Christmas in July!

I hope your summer is going well so far and you are enjoying some down time, vacation getaways or just relaxing with a cold drink by the lake:)

I have missed my blogging time with you all but have been occupied with a bad back (starting physical therapy next week, yay:)) my Mom has been having a few health issues and I have been extra busy with work to save up for a new car soon, my little Mazda has 304,000 miles on it. Can't believe it.

But enough about me, how are you guys doing, would love to hear about your creative adventures:)

I made you a Christmas in July Bouquet freebie, I hope you like it...
I have been doing some commission paintings over the last few months and thought I would share them as well. I have been painting them on canvas and embellishing them with sharpies, glitter paint, really love Martha Stewart's, and sequins, they are so fun to paint, I am really enjoying painting on canvas again.

PLEASE VISIT SPARKLE N SPRINKLE TO PURCHASE ALL OF MY DIGITAL STAMPS

Have a wonderful day!

Hugs,

Michelle

FREE COLORING PAGE AND BIBLE ART JOURNALING CLASS

Hi everyone,

I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day and didnt eat too much chocolate:)

I wanted to share some pictures of the Bible Art Journaling class that I taught a few days ago with 11, lovely 12 year olds and their leader of their Life Group/Bible Study.

It was so much fun and the girls did such a beautiful job with our "draw alongs" of hand-lettered bible verses illustrated with some fun flower doodles. They all brought their bibles that were so cute, some were pink and covered in flowers:)

Here are a few of the pics from class:





Arent they the cutest? They did an amazing job coloring all of their pages and I can see they all are blessed with such wonderful creative talents!

And here is the coloring page for you to download and color along with them, I hope you enjoy coloring:)


Hugs,

Michelle

MPS NEW RUBBER AND DIGITAL STAMP RELEASES

Hi Everyone,

I hope you are keeping warm (or keeping cool, depending on where you are in the world:)) this month, it has been really chilly here in California and we have had a few rain storms and the hills are starting to look green finally, I love it. But the mornings are very cool, in fact, this week I have had to scrape ice off my windshield before going to work, just like the East Coast when I used to do that before work:)

I have a couple of fun stamp sets to share with you, first my "Secret Garden" stamp set is now in Rubber and is ON SALE NOW! at Sparkle N Sprinkle:

MPS NEW YEAR THINGS

Hi Everyone,

I hope your new year is starting out with lots of hope, inspiration and creativity. 

I've been super busy with petsitting and am putting together some new stamp sets with Sparkle N Sprinkle to be released soon, so I will keep you posted:)

I am also getting ready to teach a bible art journaling class next month at my friends' daughter's Life Group at her church. It will be for fifteen, thirteen year old young ladies and I am super excited about it so I've been practicing my lettering and watercolor techniques and planning a fun class. Here is one of my bible art journaling "doodles" that I wanted to share:


I've also been sketching ideas for Easter, Spring and Mother's Day images, I have been drawing lots of birds and flowers lately. I wanted to share one of my sketchbook pages with you as well:


And finally, I have added some new boards to my Pinterest Page, this one is called, "heart and soul chicken soup" and I wanted it to be a place where you read some uplifting words and were wrapped up in a cozy hug of inspiration and color and a place to just be inspired by some amazing art when you need  it:)

And I have lots of new pins added to my other boards, check out my main Pinterest Page here 

Hugs,

Michelle
