Majesty Inc.


Artist, Creator, Designer Julie Morrison is your typical office worker by day, but a bright energetic creative Sewing Diva by night!

I was fortunate enough to buy two of may favorite pieces from her online shop last month before they sold from under me, as her products are so fresh and fun that they sell faster than chocolate melts on a hot day.

She proudly promotes that her Warhol like products are "All items are made with naugahyde VEGAN VINYL because we love animals here at Majesty and think they are the bee's knees."

Her fun n funky items include wonderful items such as, passport sleeves (I soo want one), card cases, key rings and bags of all sizes. She even has a new BRITISH messenger bag that screams FASHION STATEMENT!

Julie is a girl who travels along the same line as my own creative instincts.

"Fun color combinations and unique new designs are Julie's trademarks. The products are not only fun - they're functional as well!"

Make sure you pay her a visit, as it is well worth a look see!

Keep smiling and creating,

Cupcakes Take the Cake


Everywhere you turn these days there are cupcakes!
They are big in the bakeries, graphic design, paintings, clothing, magazines... you name it and you can probably find a cupcake either in it or on it!

Meet three lovely
CUPCAKE OBSESSED LADIES
from New York.

Allison (a Personal Trainer), Rachel (an Author and Editor), and Nichelle (a Bookkeeper and a Comedy Producer).

Just this last March they celebrated their 5,000th post!

They are three girls that just love Cupcakes. They gather links to over 100 bakeries, recipes galore and feature mouth salivating photos of the most scrumptious and creative cupcakes on the planet Earth!

Each post features news on the cupcake world, be it a newly found Baker, a fab creation or a new bakery opening up.

Want to attend a CUPCAKE MEETUP? See their Meetup Alliance page.

... And don't forget to wear your Cupcakes Take the Cake t-shirt!

Mmmmm... I think I need to go spend some alone time with my KitchenAid.

Mother Earth

This months challenge is for you to do something good for our Mother, Mother Earth on Mother's Day (May 11th).

There are many tasks which can be done.
- cleaning up litter
- planting a tree
- recycling
- no longer using harmful pesticides
- buying a water cooler for your home and no longer using small water bottles then tossing them out.
- emptying your used paint water into one large jug, so that the water may evaporate and just leave sediment in the bottom, which you can keep adding to.
- etc

Then do a journal page (or another type of art piece) showing us what you have done, as you also show your love to Mother Earth.

Happy Mothers Day!
Keep creating, recycling and smiling,

Nicci

March Creative Juices Art Challenge....



Hello creative ones!



The challenge this month is to go out an purchase a previously loved purse or hand bag and revamp it to your liking.

You may even already have one or two hiding in the deep dark back of your closet. hmmmmm.....


I actually went out and purchased quite a few. It will be interesting to see which one I choose to caress with paint first....


Don't forget to lightly sand the surface first so the paint will adhere better.

I can't wait to see your creations!!!


Keep smiling and creating!
