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. I wasn't sure what journey this would take me on but now I can say it has been a fantastic so far. Here is the link to my very first post. Finally My First Entry

I have met so many new people. I thank you all for visiting my world and cheering for me. You all are the best!

I have watched myself grow as an artist. I never thought I would be creative in this way but so glad to see that side of me emerging with more confidence and style.

Here are some of the things that happened over this year:

  • Got on my first design team at Scrapping the Moments.
  • Won layout of the week a few times.
  • Attended my 1st Scrapbook Expo.
  • 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. Gals online magazine (Facebook page).
  • Created lots of amazing cards and other crafts.
  • Received 365 wonderful comments.
  • Written 73 posts.
  • Viewed almost 4650 times.
  • Gained lovely 57 followers.
In celebration of this day, yes there are GIVEAWAYS! 

I will randomly select 2 winners to receive (1) card each from K. Simone Designs shop.  The winners can have a fun time picking which card they would like. How cool!
See our current collections. http://www.kellyron.etsy.com/ .

So leave a comment by Saturday, August 27 at 11 pm (pst) and the winners will be announced Sunday, August 28, 2011.

Feel free to tell a friend! The more the merrier, right? :)

This has been an unbelievable first year and I look forward to many more beautiful moments here at Inspired Me.

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...
