A Somerset Life and Giveaway * Winner Chosen

So I picked a name out of a hat and the winner is . . . . . Marianne B in AZ.  Congratulations.  I’ll notify Stampington to send your copy of Somerset Life your way.  Thank you Stampington!

Some of you are familiar with Stampington and Company’s beautiful publications. For others, maybe you have never had the pleasure to experience these amazing periodicals.  They are so beautifully done.  From the artwork collected, the well written informative and inspiring articles, the thick lovely pages, layout and more, each issue is packed full of creative goodness.  Stampington’s family of publications span so many creative venues; Bella Grace (photos and stories), Art Journaling, Bella Armoire and Altered Couture (fabric arts), Jewelry Affaire and Belle Armoire Jewelry, Green Craft (Eco friendly crafts), Art Doll Quarterly, Somerset Apprentice (art tutorials) Artful Blogging, Somerset Home (Decor), Mingle (creative events) and more. They even have a store and a website with great tutorials.

I have had the blessing of having my work published several times in a variety of Stampington magazines.  I also enjoy writing articles.  I am always humbled as the artists they choose are amazing and the projects so inspiring.  I feel as if it’s an indulgence to sit and read through the pages of these beautiful magazines.

This go round I shared in Somerset Life once again.  Somerset Life is a publication full of inspiring ideas to fill your every day life with beauty, art and creativity.  Somerset Life’s lovely pages contain delightful and original crisp ideas that bring beauty and romance to every day moments.  It’s a way of living that infuses romance and enchantment.

Recently I shared an organizational idea where I store my creative and memory planner supplies. In this Summer Issue of Somerset Life you’ll find the six page article I shared on my Planner storage ideas as well as amazing articles and ideas provided by a host of talented artists.  A few planner goods my article featured was the beautiful artwork of my new friend Adrienne Rodley from Sugar Dot Market, Fiskars (of course), the Reset Girl and more.

One such idea that really inspired me in this Summer issue was . . . ‘Putting a New Spin’ on Storage’ by Melony Miller Bradley.  This artist shared her fantastic idea of a taking a spinning spice rack and sprucing up the containers to store her bath salts she makes as gifts.  The idea is darling!  Melony decorated the tops of the containers and labeled them.  She used bits of jewelry, patterned paper and embellishments to ‘spice up’ this container and inspire us to stay organized but add beauty.
