You know you have some extra twisty ties lying around the house somewhere, this week I decided to put these twisty ties to good use! I began by experimenting with twisting the twisty ties (there’s at tongue twister for ya!), but I could not find a configuration that I liked. I began to think about [...]

BeaInspired – Coffee Cup
February 25, 2010 – 11:02 pm
I love being inspired by things I see on the street. Today, it was actually one of our fans who found something inspiring on the street! Donya Deuel visited San Francisco over Valentine’s day with her hubby David. While there, they stopped into Starbucks for a little pick me up. Their coffee came in the [...]
BeaLocal – Bagel Creations
February 24, 2010 – 8:35 pm
One of my favorite things to do in the summer is visit the Chico Thursday night Farmer’s market. Not only is it a great source for tasty produce, gorgeous flowers, and tons of socialization; it is also a great place to get exposed to local creative spirits. While perusing the craft ‘aisle’ I ran into [...]

Two elements that will inspire my card making: pulling from everyday life and making [...]

Music Monday 3.0 – Carrie Underwood
February 16, 2010 – 3:10 am
I recently heard Carrie Underwood’s new single “Temporary Home” on the radio. I was struck by the premise of the song when you really listen to the lyrics. The idea that this world is a temporary holding space for us, and that greater things exist. The final verse of the song portrays an older man [...]
