Soulspeak SPRING Dresses!

Introducing the latest from Soulspeak....SPRING Dresses!

It feels so good to accomplish the creation of something you've imagined for a long time doesn't it?
The time comes when you know you need to let go of creating in your mind and actually go for making in reality.


We had our photoshoot for the dresses and it was SO fun. Especially when one of your models has BLUE HAIR.
whatwhat!

I loved seeing the dresses ON PEOPLE. Something happened when they came off the hanger and took shape, filled with the beauty and spirit of the person wearing them. It's really interesting how they work on both ladies although they clearly have different style personas.

It was also fun to style the dresses with accessories like jackets and a sweater.

Are you a personal stylist to anyone?

I love styling people!

One of my favorite things were the smiles on my models faces!

We had a great time together! 

The dress I'm wearing is the first one I ever made.

Puppies and kitties pattern, ch...yaaa!

Here they are!

Handmade and one of a kind <3

A portion of each dress purchase will go to help someone in need.

with love,

Mint & Chocolate

Hello Soulspeakers!

What are your favorite colors?
Mine has always been chocolate, but mint is a quick second!

Originally the Soulspeak Blog was mostly business update and advertisement focused.

I will still share creative process and and finished pieces, but you'll also read more personal stories from my life.

It's a NEW Day

"Behold I am doing a new thing, do you not perceive it?" 

-Isaiah 43

Did any of these people from the Bible/History plan the powerful ways they would impact the world?

Esther.   Martin Luther King.  Abraham Lincoln.  Mary Mother of Jesus.  David.  Ghandi.  Mother Theresa.

No.

There are also many names and stories of peoples live's who impacted our world that we will never know.

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded You. Behold I am with you always, even to the end of the age. 

-Matthew 28, The Great Commission.

<><

Your greatest purpose is to Love and Worship God and make disciples, but I wonder how else He will use your life for Him?

The famous woodblock print featured below is called, "The Great Wave off Kanagawa".

When a surfer is getting ready to be carried up by a wave they sit and wait. But they know it is coming.

That's how I feel right now like I've been waiting just now God is causing the water to begin to rise.

Here is a poem I wrote about it:

Take me Wave

my fingers inch deep in You Ocean

i feel the rush of purple notions come to me

as bubbles between my toes

lightly the Wind blows

and i breathe Him in

His salty flavor 

invigorating my mind for adventure

like the waking of a sleeping volcano

or spring aching to feel the melt of a winter morning

I 

am suddenly aware a change is coming

right

now

Here is the Navy Wave with His white uncontrollable laughter

I feel Him with me as He lifts us up and we are floating

on a wall of water 

gravity's pull cannot slow us down now

not now

Closer to the Sun than ever

My hair feels like feathers 

light on my back

Oh the complete freedom I have

I see my skin brown

against Your blue

I feel beautiful with You.

Something new is here for the life of Soulspeak and I am excited.

It's still God, Giving, and Creating.

More to come……..

Beauty and Time.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. 

Also, he has put eternity into man’s heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. -Ecclesiastes 3:11

How mysterious are you Lord, how Deep and Rich and Beautiful.

Right now for Soulspeak i see a lot of shapes and whisps, dreams hopes and ideas floating around me. Puzzle Pieces. you know the visual. Some of those pieces are meant for now and some are meant for later and some are meant for much later. 
I love God who is spontaneously sincere in His actions, His perfect timing. How does He manage that? It's a mystery. It's all so amazing how He inspires; to use what might be a strange word to you, impregnates ideas in us. Then we wait for their birth. We know they are coming and they will be beautiful and they will grow.

WE HAD A BEAUTIFUL JOy-FillED DAY!

<3

Somewhere between sleep and coffee with friends, being found by Jesus Christ and scouring the words of the Bible for His voice, i have heard He is going to do abundantly beyond what i can ask or imagine and this truth is not only for me, it's for you! What's your soul saying? 

And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.-Philippians 1:6

with love and belief,

My Dear Gorgeous Guatemalan Friend Ade 

invited me to her sweet arty loft in the City!

                                                                        
Over some water, candy corn, and excited chatter she tells me about this AmaZING fabric outlet and says, let's go...NOW! So we took off down the block and this place... this place :)  


Room after room after room...

Bins of Belt Buckles... sigh

this is JUST the entrance

a Giant bag of Shoulder Pads haha!

Rainbows of Ribbon

Then as if that wasn't enough when we left....

guess who we got to take a photo with:

They gave us cards with Mother Teresa's face on them as they said hopefully one of you will become a sister one day, 

Ade said we are already sisters in Christ :)

We finished off the day with an adventure to Thailand, 

fantastic.

with love and lots of veggies stirrin in the curry,
