Here’s a preview of my new gift tags! I have 3 different sets. They are adorable, I just want to hang them up around my desk! I can’t wait to decorate my presents for the holidays (ok, I can wait). They match some of my best-selling holiday cards and come in a […]
With all this nice weather we’ve been having in the Hudson Valley, it’s hard to think of snowmen already.. but I’m busy getting ready for the holidays. I have a holiday fair on Saturday – the Chappaqua Craft Fair – in Chappaqua, NY, right across from the Chappaqua Train Station. Come […]
We planted these seeds during the summer. There are red flowers and they’re now just starting to change to yellow with the rest of the trees around here.
But I love geting up real close to this plant. I like the shape of the leaves and the way it looks like a […]
I think the holiday threw me off – I completely missed my wireless day! So no worries, no guilt, welcome wireless Thursday.
We live in a Land of Make Believe, we make the rules, we decide how to live.
I’m feeling especially thankful today that people are liking my art, my etsy […]
I’m getting things done: 1 2 3 today! Happy wireless Wednesday.
Unfortunately, my #1 is finding this DVD I borrowed from the library that jumped out of its case. Perhaps a kitten helped it escape.. They want $33 for it if I don’t find it! When was the last time you bought […]
Happy Wednesday! wireless Wednesdays are my productive days – whether that be productive in drawing, learning to relax (giving my eyes and hands a break is really important when I’m on the computer all day), or taking some time to get outside while the weather’s still nice.
Today, I’m […]
Every Wednesday I’m reminding myself to get off the computer (/phone/tv), go outside and enjoy some nature. That’s why I moved out of the city, right? But wherever you are, it’ll be nice to enjoy some fall today. I actually do love the city in the scarf-wearing fall too.
I took […]
I missed a wireless Wednesday, so I’m looking forward to today when I can get off the computer for a little bit, and find a sunny spot with my sketchbook and tea.
Some other bright spots in my week:
– Learned to finally knit at a weekly knitting night. I’m […]
Now that I’m doing something consistent on Wednesdays, it feels like the Wednesdays come up so soon!
Hope you can find some wireless time today. Happy Wednesday!
Doing another wireless Wednesday! And it really was wireless this morning because optimum had to come fix our internet speed. It’s MUCH faster.. and one of the simple things that the technician reminded me to do was go to my history and delete cookies and cache.. do it! So much […]
When I lived in the city, I think I took advantage of the fact that I could go to the nearest club for a measly $20 cover and a $15 drink and dance the night away! I miss those days. My wallet is a little fatter though.. My friends knew that if […]

about me
Hi! Thanks for visiting. Drawing and creating has become a way for me to de-stress. I'd like to do it more often. This is a space for me to share my art and inspiration, my card designs, and to remind myself to stress less.
My card business and moving outside of NYC [gasp] is a new adventure in my life and I'm happy to be able to share it with you. Feel free to drop me an email cindy [ at ] cynla.com, leave a comment or two, or visit my website (www.cynla.com) and shop (cynla.etsy.com).
Happy de-stressing!
