Beautiful Sights at Christmas

This Christmas, we went to several local malls and hotels. We saw a variety of decorations and they were gorgeous. Just looking at all the creativity has inspired my creative soul. For months, my arts and crafts have been sitting around barely being used. I did manage to make a few Christmas cards but it was a struggle. Low mojo times like this for me means, taking a break, looking at beautiful things and trusting in time my creativity will return in some way or maybe a different form.

Here are a few pictures of some of the amazing sights I saw on our vacation. Enjoy!

Fashion Island Shopping Center, Newport Beach, CA

What a vision!

It is said to be 90ft tall tree from Northern California.
 

Inside Fashion Island were these HUGE ornaments hang over the three level section. Just beautiful!

South Coast Plaza Mall, Costa Mesa, CA
This tribute to St. Nick was incredible. It was so massive, I couldn't get the whole thing in one picture.

It has houses and a train running through.

This was another tree that was amazing.
 
These hanging silver ornaments were so lovely.
Thanks for visiting and oh, I forgot to wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

  1. What a beautiful Christmas display. I would love to go just wander through it. Your photos are beautiful. I love that Santa display with the trains. I'm sure children love to stand and watch.

Emmy's 2010

Did you watch the red carpet last night for the Emmy's? I love watching these award show red carpets more than the show itself.  I just saw the pictures online. One the sites I looked at was radaronline.com. These pictures are from there. First, I liked the navy blue one.  The dress had lots of drama and she wore it well. The purple one was interesting.  Still trying to decide if I like it. Maybe it would have been better with the layers on the bottom but not both.  I really love the color and the idea. Maybe a little too much going on. radaronline.com This next dress worn by Eva Longoria was so pretty. The black flowers on the bottom of the dress was so stunning! She looked  great, too. I wonder how the dress would look in a lighter color? Maybe the floral details would show up better. radaronline.com Out of  all the dresses I saw these were the most interesting ones. I was a little disappointed there weren't more WOW dresses. Also, there were s...

Valentine's Cards

Happy belated Valentine's Day. I hope it was a sweet one for you all. I just love making greeting cards for this holiday.  Nornally for Valentine's I make red and black cards which I love but this year I decided to add some pastel colored cards to my collection. Earlier this year, I made some cards with this beautiful paper pad from Michael's. I loved it so much, I just had to see if I could use it for Valentine's and they look great to me. Details:  Recollections Paper is from Michael's 6x6 paper pad called "Blush and Mint."  Flowers made with my Spellbinders scalloped circles.  Take a look! Do you feel the love? LOL! Cards are 5x7 in size. See the heart in the center? Love that idea!     Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day!

Relaunch of Our Business

Kelly & Ron Roberts Today, Ron and I are announcing the relaunch of our K. Simone Designs business. For those of you that are new to our work and site, click   ABOUT US   for more information.   In short, we started our business selling my handmade greeting cards in 2011. We sold and donated lots of cards and enjoyed bringing smiles to our customer's faces. In 2019, we took a long break. Since then, art has become my main interest and I have been drawing, painting and improving my skills. Art has been a wonderful outlet and joy for me and I have loved encouraging others with these creations.  So now K. Simone Designs will focus on our Inspired Art business. Our greeting cards are on hold for now but they are still apart of our brand. Also, I will continue to create YouTube papercrafting videos and add more resources to my arts and crafts directory. Our goal with all these creative products is to inspire others with love, hope, joy and peace. Here are so...
