Since I have been illustrating children's books since 1999 and I am the illustrator of over 35 children's books, I thought it was high time I created and published a children's book myself! I am SO excited!

Introducing my 2 in 1 coloring/story book. And my studio companion Cassie give her hardy approval!



It makes a wonderful keepsake!   Adults can enjoy the act of coloring AND enjoy reading with their little ones after the book is complete. This 32 page coloring book/story book featuring a lovable little girl, Emma and her golden retriever friend, Brandy. It includes the 14 timeless one-sided images created on nostalgic cream colored paper.



Here is a little back story on Brandy and Emma...
 
I have lots of art featuring golden retrievers and a small blonde headed girls? Ever wonder why? Many of you on this list are already familiar with my Brandy and Emma characters because of the stamping/crafting community. But for those of you who don't know who Brandy and Emma are, let me explain.

Here is the original Brandy, the golden retriever and Emma.(aka Em or Emily, our daughter, the photo taken many years ago, as she is now a mama herself.)




Brandy was our very first beloved golden retriever who has been gone from our lives for many years now but never gone from our hearts. She was the dearest creature and I often thought she was an angel sent by God to our family.


There are still lots of my first coloring book, the heART of childhood,  going out to their new homes so be sure to get your copy soon as I am down to three last boxes and I would be so honored if you shared this link to my coloring book with your friends and family who might enjoy this new fun craze of adult coloring. It is so relaxing after a stressful day. Oh, and be sure to use the FREE U.S. SHIPPING coupon code USShipFree at checkout!




As always, thank you for being a part of our wonderful community. I am so grateful for each and every one of you!

Phyllis

2. Coffee Cup Creations - Mom-Preneurs


I love finding new and interesting products so when I came across Coffee Cup Creations, I just knew I had to "meet" the folks behind it.

Here's what Natalie Young, part of Coffee Cup Creations, had to say:

My sister and I started Coffee Cup Creations just eight months ago. I was actually going to my diabetic doctors appointment when the idea struck. It is something that is so nice for a diabetic or a person on a diet. Diabetics can eat sweets in very little moderation. The problem is most people are unable to stop at just a bite or two. Coffee Cup Creations is great for that because it just offers two servings with the cakes and breads which makes it impossible to completely over-indulge. It is also great for people on a diet. They are able to satisfy their sweet tooth without getting carried away.

I used to be a teacher. I taught the sixth grade with my sister. However, after having my second child, I had to make a very tough decision. I loved teaching, but I also wanted to spend my days with my children. After a lot of thinking and praying, my husband and I decided that I would take a year off to see how it would go. I simply loved being a stay-at-home mom.

This past year, my oldest daughter started kindergarten. This seemed like the perfect time for my sister and me to get our business started. With a lot of hard work and decisions to make, we put our ideas to work for us and now have Coffee Cup Creations to show for it.

We love the idea of Coffee Cup Creations. It gives everyone a great place to shop for a unique and perfect gift idea for anyone. They are two gifts in one with either an adorable coffee cup or soup mug with a wonderful tasting food mix inside. They are perfect for a secret pal, teacher, friend, mother, college student, bridesmaids, or the person who has everything.

They are also great for girls' birthday parties. The girls have so much fun making the cakes, and they are so easy to make that the moms enjoy it too. They can make and eat the cake and have a nice souvenir cup to take home as well.
