Stuck

Have you ever feel like creating something but stuck on what to make? Well that was me the other night. I was in a creative mood but didn't know what to make. Where else would a girl turn to? Of course Google. Lets just say I love Google... not in love with Google but loooove looove love Google! I searched some random keywords; flowers, jewelry, dress, blah blah blah. I searched and searched and searched and nothing speaks to me. FINALLY I came across these "scallopy" goodness! Yes "scallopy!"

So from there I thought I should make some cards with scalloped theme. Well duh that's easy! Or so I thought! First thing that came to my mind was to use my scalloped border punch. I told myself I can do better than that and this was a personal challenge for the night. Off I went.

I hope these ideas will spark your interests and get you going on your projects.
Stuck? I suggest Google. After all these 3 cards are pretty darn cute! At least they are to me! =) Ahh so humble.

Glimmer Mist Silk Flowers

I didn't realize how hard it is to edit a video. I would be talking and keep messing it up. I don't like how my voice sounds either. I never have. I'm one of those that doesn't like to listen to their own voice mail. LOL

But here it is....
I hope you enjoy the video.
The first few edits were a lot of "ah and um."
This one was a bit better.

First project

Here's a sneak peek of my first project that I'll be sharing with you.



Welcome!

Hey there! Welcome to my blog! Call me crazy for starting another blog. I've decided to keep my family blog strictly for the family stuff and dedicate this blog to creative things and other goodness. I will be posting tutorials and current projects that I'm working on. Right now I got most of the Valentine's stuff done. The main thing left is my son's goody bags.
I hope you will find many inspirations that hopefully will spark your creativity. I know that sometimes in order for me to get my creative juice flowing I have to get inspiration from other sources such as; magazine, internet, stores, billboards, and etc.

As for the name of my blog...
Lets just start off by telling you that my name is Bea (pronounce just like the second letter of the alphabet - B.) Since I'll be the only one contributing to this blog I thought I should use my name somewhere in the blog address. Second, I want it to be short - something that people can easily remember. Thus, the name 'to Bea.' But that was already taken so here we are with 2bea.blogspot.com.
Third, 'to be' is a verb therefore it requires action on my part. Hopefully I will be doing a good job and keeping up with my posts. I enjoy the 'doing' and staying busy. If you ask me "What do you do for fun?" One word: {{{{create!}}}}
Sorry I didn't mean to shout but I just get so excited whenever I have free time to create! Anything from cards, to scrapbooking, to sewing, to photography, to editing, and so forth. Anyways enough about me.

So stay tune and I will be sharing with you some of the things I am passionate about.
Don't forget to subscribe to my blog. Thanks!
