The truth shall set you free





Hello Everyone,
I know it has been forever in a day since I have posted. Shortly after my last post my God Mother past away. My mother moved near and I have been busy ever since.


I should be honest with you though( the few that read this blog) and let you all know the real story behind this blog. When I started this blog it was in a hopes of starting fresh. I was not feeling right about anything I was creating at the time, my life, my work, etc. So I started playing with paper. I wanted to forget who I was and reinvent myself. That is what this blog was about. Now that you are laughing I am sure there are times you wonder if you could change something about you what would it be? We all have "stuff". I just wanted to forget the stuff and create.


I found it funny that even though I was trying so hard to be someone new the "real" me was still coming through. It seemed like a lie some days. I don't know what I was thinking to be honest. Just a very hard time in my life. I guess it was a way to runaway. From the stuff that blogs us down. The pending death of my God Mother a remarkable woman was really the hardest part of all of this. I started the card making for her. To cheer her up and then added other cancer patients to the list. I have only done a few cancer cards this year, sadly. I simply haven't had the time that I had hope.
I had to deal with lots more last year.I will save that story for another post.
I have returned to card making and am doing all my cards for Christmas. I will show more on that next post I promise. I have pics to take and such.


So I should tell you all who I am. I am Phillane known in the internet world as Pea. I am a wife, mom to three kids and a new grandmother. I am a artist, dolls,paper, mixed media. I have been published 5 times. I am a caretaker to my mother who had a stroke just 2 weeks ago. I am Whimsical endeavors formally known as Pea Picker's Primitives. I write cloth doll patterns and make videos of paper/mixed media items for youtube. I am BUSY! I love,live and create as much as possible. I have 3 fur babies and a hubby of 31 yrs today. I am me, whimsical endeavors, Pea, Phillane, honey and Puddle jumpers studio too.


So now that you know more I hope you will come back. I plan on featuring my cards here and you can always check out my other blog for stuff too. I don't blog often but I am working on that too. When stuff goes on in my life I start writing and this is my journal of sorts.
I am looking forward to the next chapter of "me" and where it takes me.
Pea

  1. Beautiful photo.
    So sorry you have gone through so much, it is hard but talking with your family and friends helps..even if it is for a little while.
    So brave of you to open yourself up and share the "real" you.
