It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a park-loving fan in possession of creativity and inspiration, must be in want of making.
My dear crafters, you must know that our challenge is open to all that might stir the imagination, inspired by or connected to the allure of a theme park.
“Which do you mean?” said Makira, turning round to cast a momentary glance at Eden. Then, with a smile, she added, “All parks are tolerable, but for this occasion, we shall tempt our players with images inspired by the sweetest of days—Valentine’s Day.”

Our talented designers set to work with great enthusiasm. Their lively and playful imaginations found delight in all things crafty, and the month passed most pleasantly for our design team. Should you find yourself admiring their work, we humbly request that you pay a visit to their profiles and bestow upon them your kind and gracious comments.



Oh! My dear crafters, what a most delightful month we have before us, and we do so hope you shall join in. Fetch your art and craft supplies, and create something truly beautiful. Just think, my dear friends—how very charming it is to know that you may join not once but as often as you like! Pray, partake through the Inlinks below or on Instagram @parkhoppingmyhappyplace.

I will guess Jane Austen (Pride & Prejudice). I have to admit, I don’t remember too much literature in school. 😦

🎯✨🤗 Becca, I don’t remember that much either. For this choice, I googled “famous love stories” and it came up in the top 3. Knowing that it is well known, I read it (I don’t remember reading this one in school-I’m more or a math & science student myself) and did my best emulation. Hope you have a great week! Cheers, Makira

Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice”… and that very memorable opening line that sets the tone of the story and the era. I always love how you emulate the writing styles in your monthly posts. Delightful, indeed!

🎯✨🤗 Thank you, Karen. This one was hard for me as I am not as familiar with this story. Often times I choose a story to emulate and then end up reading it; or, listening to it’s audio form to & from work. Have a great month! Makira

Great mood board this month. As for the inspiration for your introduction writing style, I also choose Jane Austen’s novel “Pride and Prejudice.” (I loved the book, the movie and especially the audio book from our local library. That said, I never would have survived living in that era. Yikes!

I wouldn’t survive that era either; one particular problem, I’m a big fan of indoor plumbing. 😁Thanks for playing, Kathy! Hope you have a great week! Cheers, Makira
