Finding New Things

Well its the 1st May today, at least here on this side of the world.
That means a lot of different things to different people all over the world.
The first day of Spring and the first day of Autumn elsewhere and May Day to some.
Today is another beautiful day which ever it is, and I am so glad I am able to be here reaching out and meeting new people and
Finding new things
all around me.
This week in researching those Mandalas, I have already met a new friend.
Last one was Marie Segal and now its Victoria Oneil, A lovely lady who knows all about those pesky Mandalas which are such a head scratching exercise for me, and she even has a great tut on her blog, so go to my Creative Others, friends on this blog and you ll be able to learn about them too.
Sometimes I wonder how we all fit all the things into the time we have , but like they say "Ask a busy person" if you want something done.
On this beautiful day I will
Soar away
to try to catch up to those butterflies to enhance the spirit of the day.
til next time
Loads of Love tothe Universe
Elizabeth.

Finding New Things

What a beautiful day this is
the sun is shining and I am at peace with the world.
I found a new friend Marie, among my Finding New things.
How lovely I will soon get her space on my blog.
Marie Segal .
Marie is one of the most respected Polyclayist with such beautiful work to die for.
I hope to have heaps of fun with Marie, you can too.
Thanks Marie for your message about my recent ATCs .
I have yet to hear back or receive a swap, but know they got there ok, so we are all excited.

What a small world it is, when my art such as it is, can be given to others on the other side of the world, mind blowing I say.
I have also joined Polymer Productions and that is where I met Marie and will no doubt meet others there to.
Today I am at play this compting takes up a lot of time.
But my Butterflies are always there
hovering and bringing me good vibes.
You to can have good vibes,

Just find the butterflies in your life

and let them carry you away to new things

Elizabeth.

Finding New Things

Finding New Things

Hi all

Here I am at last.
It is over a month since I have been in here.
Don't know why.
A number of things have taken me away from here I was enjoying doing this , but came to a full stop. My Mandala Swap ATC's 4 cards and envelopes.
Of course I have still been Finding New things all the time.
Everyday brings a new horizon to go to .
There are so many other nice blogs to go to and I have joined two new groups .
Hopefully to further my education in art and craft.
I have also joined a site by Cindy Leitz and can now access her tutorial videos, great, am learning a lot there.
The two other groups are Creative souls for the Mandala swap, and Millandes Creative Community to learn how to with Mandalas. those ladies certainly know how to , so much there and so nice to be able to go there and meet new and ver talented people.
I also learnt about Mandalas wow they've been around for thousands of year but I had never even heard the word.
So I joined a group to swap them as ATCS. Well it is like following a cause blindly as I had no idea where to start.
I was pleased with my efforts but know that the most patient Tibetan monk would have to smile.
Well I have sent them off and will get some back so hope whoever gets mine will be happy as they are pretty if not just the right kind of thing.
But there you go, it comes under the category of Finding New Things, to me anyway.
Well I hope anyone who comes my way is still

Soaring away with the Butterflies

on their journey to Find all the new and beautiful things this Universe has to show us.

Finding New Things

Today is another beautiful day in Paradise, so I am off again Finding New things
to appease my creativness. While looking at blogs here you can come across so many things that other creative gals are doing .Sometimes it puts me to shame to see it all and know what I havent done, so I feel very guilty.
A lovely blog I like is

Mainly in The patch work world I admire, but Dont get to do, so,
Hi to
Busy Thimbles
here .Look in the Creative others to see the beautiful patchwork world of
Busy thimbles
Soar high in Paradise let the world know you are here.

Finding New things

At last I am back in my blogspot.
Have been so busy this month Finding and doing new things, Blogspot got lost.
Today I have found three new Blogspots that interest me and being from very creative people Im sure they'll interest anyone that comes here.
So, Welcome to my Blogspot
Kathleen
Lisa
Wilma.
I certainly would have liked to have been at your class Wilma.
Ah me cant be everywhere one wants to be.

That is what is so inspiring about Blogspots, you can drop in anywhere you want to go and be part of other creative peoples lives.
So like I always say

Soar away to great heights
Take others with you and enjoy life.

Find happiness in being yourself.

Finding New things

Brunos Art

Today I received word about a place in Marysville that was amidst the horrifying fires in Melbourne in Febuary.
I knew of it and had such admiration for the wonderful

Sculptures and Art of BrunoTorf.

If you have ever been there you will know what I mean.
We cannot imagine the traumas that those people in those areas faced at that time and are still facing.
It is good to know that they will be rebuilding the beautiful gardens and sculptures of
Bruno's Art.
It will take time and money but they will come back with an even more beautiful place I know.
From time to time I will go there and
Find the new things
they will be doing to bring back the wonderful place they had there.
You can see all about it on my site here.
Also today I am thinking of a friend I have had in the doll making world.
Michelle Munzone.
She is such a talented lady and making the most of her amazing talent. Look for her in my Creative Others column,it speaks for itself.
Good luck to all you do Michelle.

The world is a Wonderful place with all the talent and amazing things ,so dont feel sad or down, just go out and-----

Find new things.
