Hello... To blog or not to blog?


That is the question we have been asking ourselves since April when I signed up for blogger. For 9 months we have asked ourselves Should I, shouldn’t I?

I will start with a little bit of background on us:

We are a mother (Michelle) and Daughter (Leanne). We will both blog on here and share with you tutorials we think are helpful. 

My life (Leanne) had drastically changed over the previous few years, I left work as an accountant to have my eldest daughter Caitlin in 2008, adjusting to stay at home motherhood was lets say different. 2 years later Amber came along to complete the brood. I now stay at home full time looking after Amber (Caitlin is in reception at school). I do work some evenings doing book keeping (Boring!) and a business I setup with my mum in July this year. 

Generation Inspiration was born as we both love to create and craft, we really wanted to share our designs with the rest of the world. We are still new but we have had a great first period and Christmas was great. If you would like to have a look at the shop and our designs please visit our etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/GenerationInpiration. We would love to hear your comments.
Initially we painted personalised watercolours but decided to take the leap into digital design, its been a steep learning curve but great fun.

So back to the original question to blog or not to blog? 
As creative people we love to cook, craft, paint design, you name it we have probably tried it. We often use blogs as a source of inspiration so we thought why not share what we have learned on our creative journeys. So we decided YES we would give it a go and see where this journey takes us. 

Thank you for starting this journey with us, hopefully we will all enjoy the ride!
