December Daily

Yesterday, My friend Karin had a bunch of friends over to create a December Daily album.  It was a lot of fun and I was surprised at how far I got in putting it together but Karin had lots of papers and doodads to choose from that made it really easy.  I am looking forward to chronicling my days in December which is only three days away, OH MY!


Basically, we made a page layout for each day in December and will put a picture and journal what we do each day of the month.  You could add ticket stubs and other memorabilia too.  If you want other ideas you can go to the link above.  There are even kits at the link above if you are so inclined.  I did mine in a small three ring binder but you could make your own album if you want.  Anything works.  I hope I can remember to keep up with it once I get busy celebrating the holiday.  I will try and post my pages here too.

Melody Ross Gallery Show

 What a fun night with my Brave Girls, hanging out at the Elida Gallery
 and meeting Melody Ross.
 
We were first to show up and peered in the windows until Melody's husband came and let us in. Melody was just like she is on the videos and such a sweet heart.  I brought along my Soul Restoration notebook and she signed it for me.  Just being there was such a magical experience.  Hearing that this night was a dream for her that only came about 6 months ago was incredible.  She has really worked hard in the last 6 months to make this happen.  She encouraged me to dream big and believe that what I want to come true can.  She is so inspiring. 

I also met some other fellow artists that came to meet Melody.  They shared some of their dreams with me and I wish them the best in the coming year.

 I wish I could have bought one of her paintings, but it didn't happen this time. It looked like there were going to be some pretty happy people going home with gorgeous art.


This past year four of my friends have been going through Soul Restoration 1 & 2 with me.  We would do the class on-line and then meet at my house to talk about what we had learned that week and show the work we had done.  This evening was the perfect ending to finishing both of those classes.  I would recommend both classes if you haven't gone through them yet. It was life changing and enlightening.

Melody, You are the best! 
Love and hugs

Melody Ross is coming to town

Melody Ross is going to be in my neck of the woods next week.  If you live in southnern Washington or northern Oregon you will have to check it out. She is the creator of Brave Girls Club and I have taken her Soul Restoration I & II on-line classes.  I am so inspired by her to be all I can be and to honor who God has made me to be. Should be a fun evening.  You can check out her website here.
