Sandy Creates........A Magazine!



For quite awhile now I have carried on a kind of pen pal relationship (internet style) with Sandy of Sandy Creates.

I found her one day while browsing Esty and had her do a couple blog banners for me and then became a fan of her art. She lives in Canada and is a Mother of 3 but seems to find time and energy to put into her art.

She even came to San Diego and I got to meetup with her. I have purchased her art and admire her "get up and go". :}

Well Sandy just completed a Magazine filled with great ideas on organzing an Art Retreat. She organizes an Art Retreat every year with her gal pals. The magazine not only gives some great info on how to organize and run an Art Retreats but it has Art, recipes and inspiration.

She is having a give-a-way on her blog for the magazine, so check it out but if you don't win, buy one! ha

We all need a little support from our friends from time to time. It encourages us and inspires our art.

I found your blog through Art and Soul. Congrats on going to your first retreat! Are you going to Hampton, Va? You will have a blast! This will be my third year. If I had the money, I would go to at least 3 a year. They are wonderful.
Hope to run into you in the future!
