In today’s Sunday inspriration I use some drywall tape for texture and I show you how I dirty up my paint color to make it soft and subtle.
I also created a collage sheet just for this piece’s background and it’s free to you in the Subscriber resource library.
I was inspired for this week’s creation by some emails that I received from many of you this week that are struggling. That are hurting and in transition.
So I knew I needed to speak some truth into your lives…… because I know what it feels like to have gone through loss and heartache. To question yourself, to feel small and sit with doubt and shame.
The quote reads “when there is no enemy within, the enemies on the outside cannot hurt us” African proverb
Too often we are our own worst enemy and only add to the hurt. I share more about it in the video.
But YOU are resilient, strong and unshakable… even if you don’t feel like it right now!
