A while ago my sweet friend Stephanie Nielson posted this quote on her blog. It's so powerful and really spoke to me...
There is in every true woman's heart
a spark of heavenly fire,
which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity;
but which kindles up and
beams and blazes
in the dark hour of adversity.
-Washington Irving
Every one of us has a Spark and that's why we're so excited about this event... to be inspired by other creative woman... by you.

I CAN'T wait to attend!! This will be one last hurrah before my little bundle of joy comes!
This looks amazing. I would love to win.
I would love to be chosen for this free ticket. I am coincidentally going to be in the area for my grandmother's 80th birthday party that very week and actually already extended my flight to include going to spark. But just last week I decided I couldn't spend the $300 because one of my good friend's husband (in our ward)just lost his job and I couldn't justify spending the money on something for me when they need it more. Isn't that the way it always goes? We put ourselves on the back burner.
Anyway, I know I will love it. I need something to help me get over my creative anxieties and I really think Spark could help.
Picked or not, thank you. I hope it is everything you dream for it to be!
Sorry for the long comment.
This sounds fun and inspiring - something I need!
What a fun event! Would love to come!!
Sarah Patino!!!! Please, please!!! This is WAY cool....oddly my hubby and I are flying in on the 1st and fly out the 7th for a temple trip and some "move away from Ca" motivation. I'd love to catch a little spark while I'm there. Please!!!
this sounds wonderful. i want to be there so badly!
this would be the best prize ever!!
What a great event!
This sounds great!
Count me in!
I love a good spark of creativity and would love to go to Spark!!!
What a great idea! To 'spark' a light in the lives of others! I hope it is a huge success.
This sounds like an amazing event and would love to be a part of it.
I'll take one please.
I think you'd have to reSPARK my heart if I acctually won, cause I'd be soooo excited! lol

I need a spark!
This free ticket would leave a spark in my life! For Sure!
This is fabulous! I would LOVE the chance to come!

I need a little Spark to boost my confidence! This is great!
This sounds like an amazing weekend and a great way to meet other crafty people! I would love to go!
I read about your event on NieNie's blog, and I am just wondering if novice creatives can attend? My life has been feeling a little "itchy" lately, and it has dawned on me that it is because I have not been listening to, or expressing, that creative spark within me. If you pick me, I will definitely not be the most talented create-ess there, but I'll certainly contribute a passion to learn...and then to share with others! Thanks!
Trying to win on behalf of my creative friend Tiffany. She is the epitome of spark!
Albert Einstein said "Creativity is more important than knowledge". Now he had spark!
Oooh, that's on my birthday! What a great gift it would be!
YEAH!! Crossing my fingers....
Give me a reason to book a ticket to Utah!! I would love to share the spark.
How deliciously fun...pick me!
I just found this through NieNie's blog... i totally want to go!!

I also LOVED that quote found in nieniedialogues, I love what you have done with it!
I can't even imagine the amount of ABSOLUTE fun attending this event would be!
How fun! I'd love to win!
:)

I think that what is so powerful about that quote is that it illustrates that each of us is possessed of an innate vision and creative spirit even when we can't see it. I would love to come to Spark the Event and will be crossing my fingers that I am the lucky recipient of the free ticket.
Sounds like fun! I love hands on projects.
Just what this mommy needs!!
Invent your world. Surround yourself with people, color, sounds, and work that nourish you. ~ SARK

I stumbled onto this blog... I actually can't remember (one blog led me to another and here I am). This sounds fantastic, and is exactly what I need to jump start that fire again. I have been yearning so badly to get my creative juices flowing once again. They have been buried by a few years of meaningless work and laziness, etc... but today is a new day. I am ready to get my "SPARK" on!!!
beautiful!
Ramona
I forgot to leave my name.... Sorry.
