What is your favorite season?&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;I love the moments between each when they're changing over ~ that first bud, the first warm day of summer, the first change of color in a leaf, and that first chill in the air when it smells like winter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 102, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;10. What is your pet peeve?&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Shallow, narrow minded people.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 102, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;11. If you could live in any era, which would it be?&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;When we could barter for everything and didn't need money.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now I'm not the best at naming others to be tagged ~ quite frankly because that means I would have to narrow down a &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;very&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;very &lt;/span&gt;large list SO... please, if you feel so inclined, feel free to tag yourself and definitely let me know.  I would love to see what all of you write and promise to make the time to visit each posting if you participate so leave a comment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Enjoy~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class="centered" alt="post signature" src="http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy344/plumrose-lane/Blog%20Backgrounds/Bus%20Logos/PrL-Sharon-signature.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Be sure to visit my shop at: www.PlumroseLane.etsy.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4381382548356141988-6897105496157770286?l=www.plumroselane.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

It's one of those sites I can get lost in ~  not only by exploring the wonderfully artistic postings but in trying to figure out that fabulous website design ~ just hover over those little signs on the top right and watch them dance ~ love that! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-leRqMKy9_wk/TxsCC0oCI_I/AAAAAAAAJ9M/ObkLCGja-wQ/s1600/Creative%2BEvery%2BDay-blog.png"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 282px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-leRqMKy9_wk/TxsCC0oCI_I/AAAAAAAAJ9M/ObkLCGja-wQ/s400/Creative%2BEvery%2BDay-blog.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5700152000877044722" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;The site is run by Leah ~ an amazingly inspirational artist whose own work is filled to the brim with an unobstructed depth of passion and color.  As easy as it is to be captivated by her beautiful creations and interactive postings, you would be missing half the fun if you didn't check out her annual &lt;a href="http://creativeeveryday.com/2012-creative-every-day-challenge"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Creative Every Day Challenge&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeeveryday.com/2012-creative-every-day-challenge"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eQwZbaXfvE0/TxsATP3ZzjI/AAAAAAAAJ9A/JKDbzbyRSH8/s400/ced-2012.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5700150084043918898" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Each month Leah hosts a new theme where artists can participate by creating and posting within the month's challenge title.  The best part is you can participate as little or as much as you like by either posting once for the monthly theme or checking-in weekly, so it fits within every schedule.   Because the theme is based on a concept you can always work within your own comfort zone or be challenged to stretch out and try something new.   And the best part isn't just posting about your own creations but visiting all the other creative souls who are participating as well ~ what a great way to find new creative ideas and certainly my personal fav!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So if you're interested in a little inspiration throughout the year and wish to participate you can &lt;a href="http://creativeeveryday.com/2012-creative-every-day-challenge"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;signup here&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.  And you can look for my own submissions as I strive to work in the monthly challenge themes into one new prefab blog theme each month throughout the year.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Enjoy~&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class="centered" alt="post signature" src="http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy344/plumrose-lane/Blog%20Backgrounds/Bus%20Logos/PrL-Sharon-signature.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Be sure to visit my shop at: www.PlumroseLane.etsy.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4381382548356141988-6695111492673373564?l=www.plumroselane.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

I always say it's a dual process because they open up and allow me to tap into their persona and the elements they love most, so to me it's truly a sharing process.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"&gt;&lt;br style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"&gt;While I still have many projects I'm currently working on I wanted to showcase a few of the ones I've finished over the past few months, so without further adieu here they are~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://adventuresofthestripedstockings.blogspot.com/"&gt;Adventures of the Striped Stockings&lt;/a&gt; - seasonal theme&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://adventuresofthestripedstockings.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 201px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mUrqT8MFnRY/TwSVIaizJVI/AAAAAAAAJro/mfSbUucn9Kw/s400/AotSS-Seasonal-blog%2Btheme-sm.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693839800699921746" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of my most recent creations was this seasonal theme created for Celia of Adventures of the Striped Stockings.  Celia explained what she was looking for and quite honestly neither of us new how I was going to pull this off but fortunately 'the powers that be' aligned this project with last semester's classes and I actually learned some of the techniques while working on this project such as in the case of the wind blow striped stockings I created in Illustrator.  All-in-all we both love this theme and the seasonal magic it brings to life.&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lir62MNuGfE/TwSbel6mrII/AAAAAAAAJsM/flWsBLWEO6Y/s1600/PrL-section_break.png"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 183px; height: 43px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lir62MNuGfE/TwSbel6mrII/AAAAAAAAJsM/flWsBLWEO6Y/s400/PrL-section_break.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693846778779446402" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://beachykeenvankampen.blogspot.com/"&gt;Fifth Grade Fun - A "Shore" Thing&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://beachykeenvankampen.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 201px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0QMmLIRebgo/TwSWxUiZ_lI/AAAAAAAAJr0/t5TwoflwXBg/s400/AST-Blog_Theme-sm.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693841602973924946" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Another fun theme was this seaside inspired theme created for Krystal.  Krystal first found my work through one of my original Etsy shop designed and wanted to continue that theme onto her blog.  Through this project it came to light that breast cancer awareness and pink were also vitally important to Krystal and so I incorporated the pink ribbon into her images as well.   It's a lovely whimsical theme that works perfectly for this seaside based teacher and mom.&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lir62MNuGfE/TwSbel6mrII/AAAAAAAAJsM/flWsBLWEO6Y/s1600/PrL-section_break.png"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 183px; height: 43px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lir62MNuGfE/TwSbel6mrII/AAAAAAAAJsM/flWsBLWEO6Y/s400/PrL-section_break.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693846778779446402" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://rabbitholeart.blogspot.com/"&gt;Rabbit Hole Art&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;- giveaway winner&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://rabbitholeart.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 201px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-toK2Q4RCtP8/TwSZ4d9vNoI/AAAAAAAAJsA/3Qfgqg1__88/s400/RHA-blog_theme-sm.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693845024298448514" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Last but certainly not least we have Melanie of Rabbit Hole Art.  Melanie was the winner of my &lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.plumroselane.com/2011/09/gypsy-dreams-giveaway-winner.html"&gt;Gypsy Dreams Giveaway&lt;/a&gt; and won a free custom blog theme.  I'm always excited about these type of projects because I believe everything happens for a reason and so I was super excited to see where this theme might lead us.  As expected it was down a wonderful magic path that led to this delightfully playful and personally whimsical theme.&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lir62MNuGfE/TwSbel6mrII/AAAAAAAAJsM/flWsBLWEO6Y/s1600/PrL-section_break.png"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 183px; height: 43px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lir62MNuGfE/TwSbel6mrII/AAAAAAAAJsM/flWsBLWEO6Y/s400/PrL-section_break.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693846778779446402" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, thanks so much for perusing these designs which will take up permanent residence in the &lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://plumroselane-portfolio.blogspot.com/2011/10/portfolio.html"&gt;portfolio section&lt;/a&gt; of my blog.

It was a great dream! Maybe my brain is getting in gear ~ knowing full well I have to begin finding a suitable full-time income to support my son and me.  I'm really hoping to stay within the field I love ~ Graphic Design ~ and with my newly acquired skills in print design from this past semester I'm even better equipped than before.  Now I just need a few good leads and I'm off~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;Semester finals are finally behind me and these are the two final projects I submitted.  I thought it was only fitting to use my soon-to-be ex as Zeus (LOL!) and it got me an A so I'm happy with that~&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-m-CJFjbZOLo/TvIx_czkiWI/AAAAAAAAJoE/m99WkoYCWLk/s400/ILL%2Bfinal%2Bproject.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688664245456374114" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm not huge fan of working on Sci-Fi either but this earned me an A in my other class as well so I couldn't be happier~&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-r4z8o6nVj-M/TvIyZ_rrjEI/AAAAAAAAJoQ/fWuq28zorvs/s400/GR%2Bfinal%2Bproject.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688664701495118914" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With this semester behind me I'm finally catching up on outstanding projects and should soon have a hefty posting of completed custom creations to share with you all.

So here are the details, there are loads of ways to enter and win but first the prizes...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(221, 0, 122);font-size:130%;" &gt;~The Prizes~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;First Prize - Bracelet~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some of you may not know this but long before I dabbled in Graphic Design I was a published Jewelry Artist.  You could find my colorful handmade bracelets and key holders in jewelry stores, boutiques, and I loved participating in the art show circuit during the warm summer months as well.

All winners will be notified immediately and must respond within a five days of the announcement post or a new winner will be selected in their place.

This is one of them.  The truth is ~ I find myself feeling the need to share what's going on, if for no other reason than my business is on such a personal level with my customers and all too often we wind up becoming friends.  I think it may have to do with the way I go about creating ~ it's on a strangely intuitive level where I tend to "connect" with my clients, which in the end enables me to create the theme or images of their dreams.  Whatever the case ~ because my 'business' is so 'personal' I feel I have to make it known that my husband and I are divorcing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's painful and challenging and affecting my life on so many levels but it's something that after years of trying &lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;so&lt;/span&gt; hard to help him and make things work, it's time to throw-in-the-towel and just move on. As always I'm doing the best I can but because I aspire to such a high  standard in everything I do, I can't help but feel I'm falling short.  I don't handle failing very well ~ really who of us does ~ but I have to try and use the same positive attitude that's helped me get through the past 6  years of heartaches and hold tight to the belief that something much better lies ahead for  my little family and me.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mpXGqGof9SU/TsajMaOFUsI/AAAAAAAAJeA/VvEENtQGCTk/s1600/rain.png"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 77px; height: 99px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mpXGqGof9SU/TsajMaOFUsI/AAAAAAAAJeA/VvEENtQGCTk/s400/rain.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5676403813939237570" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Some may feel this topic isn't suitable for a business blog but for me, this blog is more than just a place to connect with customers ~ it serves as a window to the world and for this isolated graphic artist who's full-time job has been to work from home these past 6 years, it's all too often been the only connection I've had to some of the dearest souls I've ever known.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So this is an f.y.i. posting to let you all know why... why my postings  have been less frequent, why I've struggled to keep up with my custom  orders, and why I'm behind in my classwork.  Although I've managed to continue creating, granted at a much slower pace than my norm, it seems that when it comes  to mixing pain with creative inspiration they're more like oil &amp;amp;  vinegar for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FCDX-QN4zr8/TsamnwqIZyI/AAAAAAAAJeM/oN4XsjG-Ybc/s1600/brighter%2Bfuture.png"&gt;&lt;img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 174px; height: 174px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FCDX-QN4zr8/TsamnwqIZyI/AAAAAAAAJeM/oN4XsjG-Ybc/s400/brighter%2Bfuture.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5676407582353811234" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This posting isn't any easier to end than it was to begin so I'll leave it with this simple reflection... that life is a journey we all make together ~ some paths are easier to share than others but there's still always something to be gathered from our time together.  Although I'm currently experiencing a course adjustment, I still love hearing from you ~ whether it's a few simple words of encouragement or a lengthy email of your own trials and triumphs ~ every word touches my heart and helps to reassure.  And thank you... thank you for being the most wonderful souls to ever grace my life ~ you truly are a gift from heaven.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class="centered" alt="post signature" src="http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy344/plumrose-lane/Blog%20Backgrounds/Bus%20Logos/PrL-Sharon-signature.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Be sure to visit my shop at: www.PlumroseLane.etsy.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4381382548356141988-6044850028869133070?l=www.plumroselane.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;
