Preparing for an event on May 9th and I'd love for you to come

On May 9th, I’ll be sharing the very first 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐦 heirloom pieces at the 𝑆𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝐹𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑔: 𝐹𝑙𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐹𝑢𝑛 event in Hopkins, SC.

My friend has graciously opened it up for me to invite my own community — so if you’re local and would like to come, send me a message and I’ll share the details. 💜

And if I’m honest — I’m building in a stretching season.
Reorganizing my craft space.
Designing new bloom layouts.
Managing contract work that shifts week to week.

Building a new brand while navigating uncertain income requires faith.

Some weeks feel steady.
Some feel unknown.
But in this uncertain season, I’m choosing faithful reliance on God — one step at a time.

Not rushing.
Not panicking.
Not quitting.

Just trusting Him as I step into something new.

For over 20 years, I’ve worked as a graphic designer — and now I’m slowly translating those same skills into layered fabric, texture, and heirloom scripture art.

It feels familiar… and new all at once. But I’m moving forward anyway.

Victory doesn’t mean no anxiety. It means walking with God through it.

This event isn’t about perfection.
It’s about encouragement.

And I’m preparing slowly. Prayerfully. Steadily.

If you’re building something while still healing — I see you. 💛

Hey Sweet Friend 🌸

Spring doesn’t last long.
The blooms fade.
The schedules fill.
The season shifts before we notice.

Mini Spring Family Sessions are perfect for capturing this moment without overwhelm.
Soft natural light.
Movement.
Real smiles.
Connection over perfection.

These aren’t just photos.
They’re preserved seasons.

If you’ve been meaning to update family photos, this is your gentle nudge.

✨ DM “SPRING” to book your session.

Hey Beautiful Friend… Clean Slate Expression wasn’t built from perfection — it was built from healing.

This space has been on my heart for a long time.🩷

Not from a place of certainty or having it all together…
but from seasons marked by anxiety, intense stress, and the ache of rejection — where healing was unfolding quietly, surrender was daily, and my trust in God was being stretched deeper than ever before.

There were moments I felt overwhelmed, overlooked, not seen and unsure of where I was headed.
And in those moments, God met me gently.
Through prayer.
Tnrough counseling and journaling.
Through creativity.
Through quiet time with Him and in His Holy Scripture.

Clean Slate Expression was created from those moments —
a peaceful creative space to offer encouragement, truth, and support as you walk through your own journey through every season.

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest..." — Matthew 11:28

If you’re in a season of healing, growth, or simply needing encouragement…
You are welcome here 💛

✨ Save this as your reminder.

Happy Easter!

So thankful for Jesus. His sacrifice on the cross, death and resurrection to life brings all who truly believe and receive Him into their heart a new and eternal life…and life abundant. ❤️

—-

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."

~John 3:16

"The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly".

John 10:10

Hope you have a wonderful Easter!💗
