Bohemian Style Jewelry

Trends are so much fun to follow and watch as they develop within all of the creative disciplines.  This past season I have been attracted to silver and black in the Bohemian creative jewelry discipline.  Here is one of my latest favorites that I seem to reach for when getting dressed to go out the door for the day.


Take some time out and create something that will make you happy.  
Sunny spring weather sure helps with designing creative projects.

Kitchener Scrapfest April 11, 2015

April 10 and April 11th was the scrapbooker/cardmaker and multi media designers showcase weekend in Kitchener Ontario.  
Scrapfest has been an annual event in Kitchener where artist and scrapbook croppers meet, greet and share the love of the industry with passion artists throughout Ontario.

Here is a few photo's from the weekend event.

This is a photo of the CHA Canada Booth.  I had the pleasure of hosting this booth on-behalf of CHA Canada.
Friday, April 10th was a rainy cool day, so I just had to dress in light spring colors to warm the day up.  Here is a close up of the CHA Canada Poster we had on display in the booth.


Here is a photo of two beautiful happy people that were at the booth.  Sus Lamont was the proud winner of the Westcott Brands sponsored gift basket that representative Elizabeth Weait Glenday was happy to present to Sus.
Congratulations Sus, enjoy your quality products by Westcott Brands.
