Whimsy 365: Day 120

Ha! Did you notice my note under the sketch. Well, I do think sometimes maybe I shouldn’t be posting my sketches because there are people that will steal an artist’s work and use it as their own. It’s happened to me many times in the past and I’m sure it will happen again. Here’s the thing…..it’s copyright protected…..doesn’t mean someone won’t steal it…but if I find out about it, I will go after them to cease and desist…..and if that doesn’t work, I do have a lawyer.

I’m not going to let thieves keep me from sharing my art with the world as God has intended me to do. He gave me the gift of art to be shared so that’s what I’ll do until the day I die. It makes me think of terrorists and their goal of making everyone so scared that they won’t travel or fly on planes. They want people to be filled with fear and well, terror. We can’t let evil prevail. Keep on living. Keep on Loving. Keep on Praying for Peace. Keep on Creating. Let God handle the rest.

Blessings,

Teresa

Whimsy 365: Day 119

Sorry for all the Christmas sketches but this is the time of year (actually throughout the year) when I need to design for Christmas 2017. Crazy, isn’t it??

Spending time with some very special friends tonight. Can’t wait!

Happy Friday, friends! Hope you have a great weekend.

Blessings,

Teresa

Whimsy 365: Day 118

Crazy weather we’re havin’! It was so warm yesterday (50ish) and today it’s snowing. Pure Michigan :)

I have to tell you, I am ridiculously swamped these days. We are gearing up for our show in Nashville where we sell my punchneedle and cross stitch patterns. We are bringing 200 of each new cross stitch and 150 of each new punchneedle pattern. I have 15 new XS and 10 new punchneedle so that’s a TON of work! I also need to finish the models!!

Also, Atlanta has proven to be VERY successful as I am getting a lot of requests for new art for products from my wonderful licensees. To see a video of why going to Atlanta is so valuable to a licensed artist, visit Gather, Dream Create.

The angel coloring book is getting a slllllooooowwwww start :(  and the e-course I am planning is on the back burner for now….at least until I meet all the art request deadlines.

Briahnna’s bridal shower and wedding are fast approaching and I feel unprepared!

Oh well, have faith. It all works out in the end…..according to His timing, right? (what would I do without my faith? I thank God for my Faith)

 

Blessings my friends,

Teresa

A fun day today. Mom and Emma where here :)

 

Teeny and Emma haven’t been able to play for almost 3 weeks because they both were spade. They sure did miss each other!

Hope you are having a fun fur-baby day!

Today I’m in the studio working all day on instructions for my new cross stitch and punchneedle patterns. Plus creating the covers, printing and cutting them. We plan on taking 200 of each new cross stitch and 120 of each new punchneedle…..that’s a lot of work!!  We only have a month to get it all done. Wish me luck!

Blessings,

Whimsy 365: Day 111

 

Go out today and make it great! It’s up to you to make it happen. Don’t depend on someone else for your happiness. Not saying that you don’t find happiness in the ones you love. What I’m saying is don’t DEPEND on someone else to bring you happiness. Don’t give someone else power over you. YOU are in control. Make it a happy life, my friends.

Blessings,

Teresa
