Thursday and Undiscovered: Memorial Day

This week as we approach Memorial Day I wanted to take time to remember those who are serving and have served in the past and in the more recent years, as well as those who have fallen. As an Army wife and a Navy daughter and sister, I am always reminded of the strength that these men and women must have to serve and the strength that their loved ones also must have to travel the journey with them.

Thank you for taking time to remember.

Let's Play, It's Saturday!

It is that time of the year when there are Arts and Craft Shows on the weekends! It is a great way to get outside, play a little and enjoy the company of others!

Tuesday Talk - Dahlias

 

Dahlia Photography available at Art Whims Paper.

Some of my favorite flowers are Dahlias. Not only do they come in a variety of styles, shapes, color combinations and hues, they are tall and strong. They are well loved by the community in my area, as they grow annually at Point Defiance Park one of my favorite places to visit with my husband in the summer months.

If you are interested in growing dahlias you may want to check out the American Dahlia Society or Dahlia.com. for tips and resources. I am looking forward to someday enjoying these flowers in a garden that my husband and I will grow together.

A Day Trip to Mt. Rainier

Taken simply because the sign told me to :D

This Saturday, my husband and I ventured to Mt. Rainier to enjoy the company of one another and work on my photography collection. It was an amazing trip! We went on a few mini hikes, saw bugs and butterflies, Mt. Adams in the distance, flowers, waterfalls, snow, and so much more! We ate a packed lunch near a river and explored all there was to explore. I have so many new ideas and themes that will be showing up at both Art Whims and Art Whims Paper! You will also want to be on the look out for new fine art photography featuring the beauty of Mt. Rainier!

I cannot wait to share the inspiration that I found on this trip!

Art Whims has a Sister Shop!

Hello from Art Whims! I have been quite busy creating, going on adventures and dabbling in some new crafts. All of this left me wondering how I was going to incorporate these new items into my line on Etsy. I realized that the best way to showcase my new creations was to open a second Etsy shop: Art Whims Paper.

At Art Whims Paper you can find an assortment of greeting cards, fine art photography and digital collages great for creating buttons, scrabble tile pendants and much more!

I hope that you will swing by our new shop and check out all these great new products!

Have a great Wednesday!
