My website is HERE!! Woot Woot!!!

I told you I had a big surprise coming....and today is the big unveil!

Lots of blood, sweat and tears and help from professionals have gone into building a little website for Kirsten Reed Designs and today is the day I get to share it with you!!!

I am so stinkin' excited!

So please, please, please take some time to browse my new site, visit the gallery, leave a comment if you wish too!

In celebration of this special day I am inviting you to be part of the party ~ it's my website launch & birthday celebration! Why birthday? Because my daughter's birthday is today and mine is later this week ~ September is truly a birthday month around here ~ so why not celebrate life too?!!

Instead of bringing me presents, I am going to give fun party gifts to YOU....things like art prints and supplies.

Here are the prints I am going to give you a chance to win ~ each one is a small representation of me and how I have felt on this journey so far. 

Morning Y'all.  The coffee one -- well, because I live in the South and I LOVE my coffee. Oh, who am I kidding? I don't love it, I NEED it.  It is the reason for me to get myself moving most mornings. LOL!

I will be giving away an 8x10 giclee canvas print of my original mixed media piece, Morning Y'all!
A $28 value.

She Found Her Courage.  I am her.  She found the courage to put herself out there in the art world, take a chance on herself and follow her dreams.

I will be giving away an 11x14" canvas giclee print of my mixed media original, She Found Her Courage.  A $38 value.

My Dreamer Girl.  Full of dreams, obligations, and trying to figure out how to balance it all.  Yes, I love her. She is me.

I will be giving away an 8x8" canvas print of my mixed media original, Dreamer Girl.  A $28 value.

Dream!  This was one of the first pieces I made when I subconsciously made the decision to pursue art full time.

I will be giving away an 8x10 giclee print on sunset textured paper mounted with a one inch border of Dream!  A $25 value.

In addition to those I will also have stamps from Christy Tomlinson, Donna Downey, Strathmore Mixed Media art cards & envelopes to have fun designing, 8x10 canvas panels to play with, Portfolio oil pastels (love these things!!), a chipboard album from Pink Paislee, and more! (see photo on the giveaway entry form below)

It's easy to win ~ you MUST visit my NEW website and sign up for my newsletter via email. I will email out a newsletter with fun tips and exclusive specials for subscribers approximately quarterly. (don't worry I will NOT clog up your email!)

Then if you really want to share the love ~ you MAY increase your chances of winning something by liking me on Facebook, following me on Instagram, Pinterest and/or Twitter.  Whatever you feel comfortable with doing and however many entries you'd like to have. It's totally up to you!

Thank you for all the great encouragement and support! I truly appreciate it! And I wish you the best of luck!!!

In Art withdrawal....

Been awhile since I have posted. After returning from my art weekend ~ just been slammed with life and catching up. It's all good, just busy. I am suffering a little from "art withdrawal" after being completely immersed in a weekend of color, paint, and creativity!

Loved, loved, loved my time away. The Soul Inspired weekend was such a treat for me. And I met sweet, creative women who I laughed with as we learned together. So. Much. Fun!!!!

Here are some photos from the weekend!

My table - wonderful, sweet women who I laughed and created with all weekend!

The ever hilarious and talented Donna Downey and myself on the last day in the studio!

Christy Tomlinson and me on the first day ~ a sweet and beautiful person inside and out.

The goodies that awaited my arrival ~ very cool and fun!
