D: Drawing

For this week's inspiration, I would like to share an experience I had earlier this week.

I ordered some fabric with my pattern on it. I cut it into tea towels to sew as gifts for the local community 🥰

What a feeling to hold your drawings in your hands!!!

As I lovingly measured, cut and ironed the fabric, I remembered every drawing stroke, the struggles, and the vision for this project.

And now this vision came to life! 💫

What a cool feeling.

And I love that I'll be gifting something I feel proud to share 😊

Would you like to learn how to create your own version of this pattern?

All the step-by-step tutorials for this "Gingerbread World" fabric (and matching greetings cards 😍) are waiting inside.

R: Resource

This year, I printed my Christmas greeting cards at VistaPrint.

It was soooo easy!

I ordered 3 different finishes (you can kinda see them on the photo 👇) just to see which finish I like best.

From the 3 finishes I've tested (premium glossy, premium matte, and linen) I like the glossy finish best for greeting cards 😍.

If you want an easy way to print custom greeting cards, I would definitely recommend VistaPrint (no affiliation).

This week was very-very full with events and emotions.

My children had their dance performances, which was a culmination of many weeks of practice (and extra effort from Mom 😆).

There were wins and there were falls.

It was intense all around (but so worth it, of course 😊).

And the whole week, I kept saying this affirmation to myself:

If it's happening, it's for the best.

Now I feel I can exhale a little ☺️ and ease into the holiday spirit.

We were having lunch, and I asked my husband, "So what are your insights from the day so far?"

He looked puzzled.

Asking for insights so early in the day?

Yep, I am a collector of insights.

I can probably give you 5 before I finish my morning tea 😆

Well, I don't suggest you ask yourself for 5 insights every hour, but it's good to notice them when they come.

So here is this week's question to wonder about:

I wonder... what is my insight from today?

Have a beautiful week! ❤️

Warm regards,
Tatyana
