An ink drawing done as I processed my own heart and the walls I had built. I was in the process of getting to know myself and someone I was dating and quickly realized that I had built a pretty fancy castle around myself - hiding who I truly was. Out of that realization came this little drawing reminding myself that I need to tear those down so others can know me. Maybe you do too? Prints are Giclee printed on fine art paper which has a subtle watercolor texture. The weight is 200GSM.

Admit it...we all like to have an easy button for something, am I right? I know I sure do! Especially when it comes to getting my craft on these days--easy is MUCH more likely to happen, lol. One of the MANY perks I adore about being a Close to My Heart Consultant (besides the obvious discount on all my goodies, of course) is all the AMAZING support we receive from corporate! Take, for instance, this time saving idea for a workshop class that was provided to consultants...making a popular drapery fold card! All the instructions and measurements are provided, so I just added a bit of my creativity! Ink colors used: Goldrush, Cocoa I used my favorite double-sided pattern in the Swan Lake Paper Packet and the Blessed Beyond Measure My Acrylix stamp set that is the September Stamp of the Month. It is only available on my website for ONE more day, so scoop it up if you like it! Those gorgeous leaves are cut from the Artbooking Cartridge on my Cricut Explore. The sizes are listed right on the carrier sheet of the stamp set to make it EASY, just like I love! Here is another easy-button idea for you when making your own drapery fold cards... This little tip makes assembly THAT much easier!

This downloadable talk is designed specifically for non-reader primary children, but could really be used for anyone in junior primary. I find myself making at least one of these for my children each week, so I thought I'd make them available to anyone else! I create each talk in simple sentences with pictures alongside that make it so easy for children to independently stand and give their talk - even the sunbeams! This download includes a simple 2 page talk with directions on how to help your child learn and maybe even memorize in just a few days. This is a simple, homemade, downloadable talk in every way. There is nothing fancy about it, but it has worked perfectly for many children. Thanks for stopping by! **This listing is for one instant downloadable PDF file. It contains 2 - 8 1/2 x11 sheets with words and pictures perfect for little minds. Print in color or black and white on a home printer. **I also have an independent reader talk for those in senior primary (or very good readers) on the same topic:

If you’re as excited as I am for the new season of Dr.Who, and with the brand new Doctor you’ll want to knit yourself a lovely jumper to celebrate! I have created this pattern and charts to allow you to make yourself a snugly warm Whovian jumper, so you can always be with The Doctor. Currently the pattern is designed for a UK Medium fit (roughly a size 14 – 36” bust) as this is my size, and I will attempt to make other sizes which will be available to download from my Ravelry Store soon for a small fee (it takes a lot of time and maths to work out different sizes!) This is the first thing I have ever used the Fair Isle technique with, so don’t be scared if you have never done it before. It’s really quite easy when you get into the swing of it, and in this lovely super chunky yarn it knits up pretty quick too! This is the first pattern I have ever written myself, so please be kind, I have tried to keep it as simple as possible. If you find a mistake do let me know and I will attempt to rectify it. This is written exactly as I made the jumper in the images, so I am hoping it is all correct!

Distance Learning is getting tough and I miss my students. I created a Bitmoji for myself and mailed to students as a "Flat Teacher Project". Attached is a very basic, nothing fancy letter to send to your students. It's very simple and editable. I used KG Be Still and Know font- free to download.
