Well, this is an update since I last posted it several days ago. I stumbled across A For Artistic recently and fell in love with this site. I am now subscribed to their eMag for 2014 and 2015 and am impressed with what they offer. In their latest issue, Spring 2015, there is an article by Adele Sciortino called, "Setting Your Creative Goals". It works perfectly with their free Creative Planner, which I have been using daily, by the way. If you haven't checked it out, please do and download it today. Its not a regular planner. It ignites that creative spark in us and gets us on a regular creative practice, which I so desperately needed. Don't want anymore UFOs around before my next brainstorm of ideas bursts forth!

Oh, and did I mention, its not a big bulky planner to use with lots and lots of pages which can be overwhelming, the layout is very eye pleasing, and the cover is so bright and colorful, too, with more creative inspiration to make your sparks fly inside! You can download right from home. See below for the link and let me know what you think...if it works for you.

I've been working on making my own creative planner and just happened to stumble upon this one from A For Artistic and thought I'd give it a try. Very colorful. Haven't gone through it yet but wanted to let you know its out there.

"Blessing Doll"

My "Blessing Dolls" are based on spirit dolls. They contain secret messages and special symbols tucked inside that bring the owner of the dolls blessings. 

This one was specially made for someone. She is a love goddess. The picture is of Quan Yin who is most notably known as the goddess of compassion but she also helps with receiving and accepting love. The message and totems placed inside build on this and act as a beacon to radiate its meaning. Quan Yin can be seen with a red mist or red sparkles surrounding her. This is represented in the fabric. Although it is not apparent in the photos, the fabric is a deep red with red sparkly shimmer to it. Additional spiritual symbols are adorned on her bodice.
