These bats didn't stand a chance of looking basic. 🦇
Started with my hot pressed watercolor block from @flunbrato and their brushes — I'm properly falling for them. From there, built with @lindysgang Wicked Witch of the Woods magicals for that unmistakable series vibe, then layered onto @ardencreativestudio's Wicked Woods paper — the spiders and sentiments did most of the heavy lifting pulling the whole design together. Mounted it all on Arden's Pitch Black cardstock and called it done.
Simple as that.
Spotted these @heroarts batty dies at @memorybound and had to have them — turns out I wasn't the only one. Links have been scarce, so if you love them, grab them now and sort out the "why" later.

![Start small and break thru creative blocks! #createdaily #mixedmedia #cardcreations #creativecards
Hitting a wall? Start small!
When I’m struggling with where to begin grabbing a small watercolor block and some color gets me back into the game.
The Garden Chronicles Magicals are so bright and energizing they definitely did it for me. And the Fine Ferns Stamps create a work of art effortlessly.
I used a washi sticker sentiment from the Garden Chronicles Sticker book but wanted it to be opaque so I put it on paper from the Ledger Essentials and then used my shears to roughen the edges
And my brush pen around the edges anchored it all!
Simple as that!

![You are enough. Sometimes it takes a little art journaling reminder #mixedmediajournal #artjournal
Whens the last time you told yourself youre enough?
This page said it for me. A blank page from my @flunbrato watercolor journal, @paperartsy fresco paint sprinkled with @lindysgang magicals from my Garden Chronicles palette, then layers of decoupage papers from the @ardencreativestudio Garden Chronicles pack with matte medium worked through. A cluster of Garden Chronicles ephemera and a sentiment to finish: you are enough.
Creative time. Soul clearing. Reconnecting. Moving forward. Simple as that.

Keeping Creative Journaling Clean and simple today
With some of my products from @ardencreativestudio.
I had picked up this notebook while traveling and because I like to have a dozen things going at once 😂 [yep, thats me!] I decided to start a clean and simple journal with some of my new products coming from Arden along with some of the items released last year. This is going to be such an amazing year of releases that it’s the perfect time to start this!
Started with layering some NEW PET filmstrip tapes and kept layering from there with NEW rubons, dies, papers, laser cuts and then the dotted lines stamp is a favorite of mine from the letter box remnants stamp set with @ardencreativestudio
Clean and simply lovely with a bit of a calming vibe… has me all ready to start my day now!
Simple as that!

![Painting creative Christmas cards
I was inspired watching ornaments being painted
Loved people using jars and bowls to create round ornaments
But I have this fabulous ornament die I designed for @ardencreativesstudio and I wanted to try something special with it
I cut three ornaments from Hot Press Watercolor Paper [my preferred watercolor paper because of its smoothness]
And I mixed up some of my Lindy’s Laurel Garden Magicals and got to work @lindysgang
And I kept working. Took more time and patience than most of my cards but I was determined to see this idea thru!
I added caps to the ornaments and stars to the fronts and hung them with strings on the card
Simple as that!
So pleased with the results too!!
