Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays my friends!
December25
I actually have a small Christmas tree this year as well as Noel my Mannequin
. Everything looks all magical and Glittery this time of year! Having Christmas music gently playing in the background really helps get me into the Christmas Spirit! How about you? Are you in the spirit yet? I hope so!
I want to wish all of my readers a very joy-filled, peaceful and happy Christmas! May 2012 bring you abundance, good health and happiness. Thank you so very much for all of your love support and kindness over the past year. I truly do appreciate you – even if we have never met!
Happy Holidays Everyone!

















Merry Christmas, Violette. May your 2012 be filled with beauty, happiness, contentment and good health.
I recently became interested in mixed media and I bought your book last month. I haven’t put it down since. I really do refer to it daily. You are a very talanted artist. I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for helping me get my “groove” back. I lost my mom (aka best friend) due to cancer this past July and I have had a hard time concentrating on anything other than my husband and boys. You have in fact brought some inspiration back into my life and we have never even met. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and Blessed Be,

Merry Christmas Violette. I have loved reading every post this past year and am always inspired by you and your joy. Here’s to a wonderful 2012 for you and those you love.
Thank you Michelle for your kind comment. I’m happy that my book Journal BLiss has helped you along on your mixed media journey and that i have brought a bit of inspiration back into your life. I am so sorry to hear of your Mom’s passing. I know that art is such a wonderful tool to use to heal. It sure has helped me. Take care and happy holidays Michelle.
Love, Violette

Happy Holidays Lorraine – thank you for giving me the heads up! Sooo cool! CPS had used my journaling piece in their e-newsletter too so it’s nice to see it in a hardcopy version of CPS!
