Spotlight Fridays



Welcome to another Spotlight Friday! Today I'd like to introduce everyone to Leasa at Funkymom Cards.


Photobucket

Meet Leasa


Leasa is mom to 3 boys and wife to a minister! I can't even imagine how she finds time to create with 3 boys to keep up with! Her blog is all about her family and her creativity. She has some great pictures, especially on Embrace Thursday, which typically feature her and her boys. And I love her Grateful Heart posts where she blogs about things that she is grateful for. What a great idea. Here are some beautiful things she's created:






Leasa also decided to do a Special Giveaway just for ~The Life of Me~ readers. Leasa is giving away one monogrammed cup to a lucky reader! All you have to do is become a follower of  Funkymom Cards and leave Leasa a comment telling her you found her on Spolight Fridays @ ~The Life of Me~! That's it. Such an easy way to win an awesome prize!

So make sure you head on over to Funkymom Cards can tell Leasa hi!

Inspirational Thursdays


Like I said last week, I'm still trying to decide if I'm going for thought-provoking questions or things to help get you inspired to create. This week, I'm going with a little bit of both.


I found this lovely accessory holder at Lemon Tree Creations. Not only is it super easy to make, it's also functional (and who doesn't like double duty). I also love the message. Who wouldn't want to grab a belt off this. I think it's time for me to pull out the vinyl and see what I can do.

Spotlight Fridays!



Welcome to my FIRST EVER Spotlight Fridays!

Aren't you excited! I am. So without further ado - the first blog to be spotlighted is...The Elephant's Trunk.




 

Lauren blogs at The Elephant's Trunk and I'm absolutely in love with her blog. Lauren is way more creative that I am. Check out some of the gorgeous things she has made:

Candle Brooches

Wine Label Plate

Bracelet
Lauren also has an Esty store (which I am jealous of because I keep meaning to get one too). It's called V8 Ambition after one of her favorite Elvis quotes.



She sells all sorts of fabulous items at her Esty store from jewelery (like the bracelet above) to beautiful wine corks. And the best part...she has GREAT prices. 

So please, stop by Lauren at The Elephant's Truck and say hi. You won't be disappointed!

And if you're interested in being in the spotlight, email me at sashasbooks@ymail.com!

Inspirational Thursdays


I know I forgot to do this for the past couple of weeks, but in any event...welcome to another Inspirational Thursday. I'm still trying to figure out how exactly I want to inspire everyone each week - if I want it to be something crafty or something that makes your think. This week, I've decided to go with something to make you think. So...

How do you want to be remembered?

I choose this question because of my dad's recent passing. When someone close to you passes away, it really does make you think of everything you remember about them and how you want people to remember you. I just want to be remembered as a person that loved my family and friends and was happy with life. Sometimes the little things in life that go wrong tend to drag us down and we forget about what it means to be happy that we have life and all the wonderful experiences in our lives. So I hope that I am remembered as a person who loved life. So, how do you want to be remembered?
