Creative Blogger Award me!

Once upon a time, I went to a Close To My Heart Regional Celebration in St. Louis.  I knew I was going to have FUNN because CTMH ALWAYS throws a great event and really looked forward to seeing fellow team mate Carmen, but what I didn't expect was making some other special friendships.
Two were the car mates who were Sheila Bennett and Michelle Loncar (my sistah from another mistah) and this silly muffin who sat behind me and made me laugh, Shelly Nemitz.(see Shelly's blog Just One Pretty Piece here).

Cut to now, Shelly very kindly nominated me for a Creative Blogger Tour and so did Gail Gross (see her blog here).! Now, that is some 1, 2 compliment! Thank you, ladies! I hope you will enjoy this post.

Creative Blogger Tour 
1 - What am I working on right now?
Little bit of this, little bit of that - always and perpetually to infinity and beyond such as...
 * Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge - how to demonstration, team video call

and next week's blog post

CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS WAS ALL DONE WITH ONE BLINKIN' KEY?

 * December Pajama FUNN Party layout with Yuletide Carol
 * Transferring old magnetic albums of my babies to safe books

My babies deserve much better!

 * Several Studio J albums for gifts and November's discount!
 *A secret project
 * LA pages for our fantabulous 35th wedding anniversary celebration from our family.
  
2 - How long does it take me to create a project?
hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Time? When I'm in the zone, I have not a clue. My husband has learned to bring me food.

Doug is now our head cook. Yes, it is as great as it sounds.

3 - What are my favorite things to create with at the moment?
Another little bit of this and a little bit of that - cards, Pajama FUNN Parties, mini albums, layouts, little happy things, drawing Super Glue Guys, practicing lettering, coloring, My Crush gifts, cards for the Freaking Awesome Card class, and a little more of this and that.

4 - How does my process work?
What does this question even mean?
This must mean how I start with one idea and end with something completely different.

5 - How do I become and stay inspired?
Scrapbooking 
-  having upcoming Pajama FUNN Parties and FUNN ClubBs keep me going
- my best inspiration is my family and looking at scrapbooks I have created

smoochy face you all!

- my ego
Card making 
- my insatiable love of creative FUNN and the fear of exploding if I don't

Yes, I think like this.

I am truly a dutiful person and as a CTMH Consultant, it is my responsibility and honor to create for others' inspiration and pleasure.

 

like these delightful ladies (who wouldn't want to help them?) and

you fellow Consultants!

Hi Susan, Sue, and Terri!

I LOVE my customers, down line, fellow consultants, and blog readers, I really do and I think of you while I create, but really, I am a mostly afraid of my head exploding if I don't create.

6 - What is my signature style?
My style? It must be my serious pursuit of fantastic creative FUNN employing unusual ways to use product. If it doesn't make me smile, it isn't my style. One of my favorites recently are the magnet cards

While some of my projects would be ridiculous to replicate, most projects are designed to make it possible for others to enjoy creating and know the joy of being an artist.
It is a groovy gig, so please join me in my serious pursuit of creative FUNN!


THANK YOU Shelly and Gail for the nomination and for thinking of me. You guys are going in my ego book! They have some really clever items on their blogs which make me smile - true FUNN lovers!

I invited one of my favorite bloggers (why do I keep typing "bloogers") to join the hop, but she was not able to. Still, I hope you will visit her happy blog...
