I just love it! Not only is it pretty, but pink
and purple are our granddaughter’s favorite colors which make it even more
special. I also love the idea of finding messages in several places on the card
instead of just the traditional ‘message goes here.’
I asked her if she minded if I borrowed the card design and
she said she’d be delighted, so you will be seeing some similar cards in the
future.
Where do you get your inspirations? My daughter and husband
get theirs from within themselves. I think of myself as an adapter usually. I
see something I like then I adapt it to my vision. Other times I’m an imitator,
especially if I’m having a creative block. I’ll see a tutorial or a
how-to-video that I like and make it just like it’s shown. I find that it helps
my creative juices start flowing because as I work I start putting my own spin
on the object or start thinking of other ways I would like to try doing it the next
time. Occasionally I get a creative thought that I just can’t let go of until
I’ve created or tried to create it. That is when I feel my most creative. Unfortunately,
I don’t get that feeling frequently, but that’s O.K. I believe all artists go through these creative stages. So
don’t doubt yourself or feel you aren’t creative because you go through these.
It’s all part of the process. Very few are gifted with an artistic hand from
the start. Almost everyone has to work at it. If you are happy with what
when you create, that is what matters. That, is what feeds your creative soul.
