My New Resource Directory

Today, I am happy to announce the start of my NEW blog Inspired Me 411. It is an arts and crafts directory of resources I have used over the years. Inspired Me 411 is the "baby" of Inspired Me. My blog had a baby!!! LOL! Now, I will have two blogs to enjoy and share with you.

This directory is a one-stop-shop organized in the following categories: Papercrafting, Arts & Art Journaling, Fiber Arts, General Crafts and Mind & Body. There are lists of websites, organizations, events, classes and articles that I will be updating periodically.  Plus, I will be writing blog posts on any related and interesting things I find.

"411" is for everyone, new or experienced, looking for good information to help you grow your creativity. When I started making greeting cards in 2006, I didn't find many places to get ideas or supplies. It wasn't until I stumbled upon Two Peas In A Bucket website that my creativity took off. I learned so much, had fun making friends and sharing my cards. Since then, I have collected all kinds of information to use with the over 20 arts and crafts I have made.

These days, you can use Google, Pinterest and even Instagram to find anything you need. That's a lot to look through, but "411" is full of highly recommended sites all in one place. So you don't have to search all over to find great information.

I created Inspired Me 411 to help you the way I was helped. Arts and crafts have been a comfort to me and I believe it can be a source of fun, therapy and inspiration for you and your family especially in these challenging times.

I hope you find this new site fun and helpful. Stop by and check it out.
Please SUBSCRIBE and share this site with a friend.

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!

My Birthday Blog Party

Welcome to my Birthday Blog Party! I am starting my celebration early to fully enjoy my day. My actual birthday is May 29th but why not start early right? :) When I think of birthdays past, they were always such exciting times for me. Many of my birthdays were celebrated with fun parties from my childhood to my young adult years. I loved all of those special parties and to this day, I still love it. Maybe this is where my love for event planning all started. At my 3rd birthday, my parents gave me a big one. I don't really remember but the pictures are so cool. I had lots of kids there, a clown, a little merry-go-round ride and lots of games. I had a white little outfit on and was looking so cute for a Spring party. Boy, I looked so happy! Also, I was brave not to be afraid of the clown, too. My mom was holding me as I blew the candles out. Another year, I had my first slumber party. That was so fun! I invited several friends and a cousin. It was so great to have m

Happy 1 Year Blog Anniversary

Happy Birthday "Inspired Me" ! Yes, today my blog is one year's old. I remember a year ago I was so excited to start.

Won a card challenge at Papercraft Magazine. Took a super fun floral arrangement class. Played around with more painting. Started our greeting card business. Featured by L.A.

Soul Sistah Painting

I love trying new things in art. It is like an adventure and a hearty challenge. So after I saw this picture of the soul singer Ledisi, I just had to try it. Love the dark eye shadow and the head tilted. So dramatic! When I first tried adding the blue eye shadow to my painting it looked cool to me. But when I had my hubby look at it he nicely told me the blue I did made her eyes look hollow! LOL! So I went back and added a lighter blue and that did it! So here are some pictures showing the progression of my version of Ledisi. Thanks for stopping by! Have a super day.
