The Hub by Susan Monahan



I have a great friend who is very talented, inspiring, amazing and kind ... I can go on about her for hours. She came in to my life and has done so much for me by simply being herself. She is always ready to listen and not to judge, give an advice but not to insist to do anything her way.

Just about a year ago she joined Creative Writing classes. I am so happy and proud of her new successful steps in completely new direction. She have met lovely people, made new friends. She read me a poem about her girly club where they get together and have a time of their lives. 




I offered to “illustrate” this funny, mischievous poem for all girls in "a club".
I live in Massachusetts she lives in Ireland, but Susan is one of the closest dearest people in my life.

Handmade Wedding Card; Congratulations; Personalized Wedding Gift; Window Card;OOaK




A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.

Hi Everyone! Natallia is here. Two of my friends got married a couple of weeks ago. I would like to share with you a card that I handcrafted for such a happy occasion. I wanted to honor their special day by creating a special custom wedding card.

I decided to make a window card. A window gives a card an effect of surprise. I used quilling and paper cutting techniques for this card.
 

The silhouettes of a groom and a bride were cut out using X-acto knife and assembled together.







To add the texture I embossed the bride’s dress. The real bride had a short cute dress so I decided to give my bride a short dress too. I quilled delicate roses for a bride's bouquet and elements of decor on the front of the card.

The result is a beautiful original card which I hope will make a great keepsake for the future. I handcrafted an envelope as well. I embossed and decorated it with stick-on pearls. You will not find anything like this in the shops.
This pretty card was very appreciated by the happy couple.






All my cards are made to the highest standards and only high quality materials are used. The photographs do not really do justice to the cards. You really need to see and hold them to appreciate them fully.  








If you are interested in having a custom item(s) made for you for any occasions, I would love the opportunity to make them for you! Just let me know what you are looking for and I'll get back to you with ideas and timeline.  Looking forward hearing from you.

The Sunflowers

Poem by Mary Oliver

 

Come with me
into the field of sunflowers.
Their faces are burnished disks,
their dry spines

creak like ship masts,
their green leaves,
so heavy and many,
fill all day with the sticky

sugars of the sun.
Come with me
to visit the sunflowers,
they are shy

but want to be friends;
they have wonderful stories
of when they were young -
the important weather,



the wandering crows.
Don't be afraid
to ask them questions!
Their bright faces,

which follow the sun,
will listen, and all
those rows of seeds -
each one a new life!

hope for a deeper acquaintance;
each of them, though it stands
in a crowd of many,
like a separate universe,

is lonely, the long work
of turning their lives
into a celebration
is not easy. Come

and let us talk with those modest faces,
the simple garments of leaves,
the coarse roots in the earth
so uprightly burning.
