Why Cross Creations?

cross creationsOrigin of the name Cross Creations:
Could it be because she's a sucker for alliteration and word play? (Bingo!) Or was it because her mama was cross while her daddy was busy creating? (LOL, maybe there's more than one reason, think?)
Creations by C. Ross ... She has used the 'Cross Creations' signature for many moons on personal creations such as photographs, sometimes would frame them as gifts and sign them Cross Creations. Then that phrase began to appear on other items like art or whatever, you get the idea. All links here are Creations by C. Ross, or CrossCreations.

CrossCreations can be found in many places in cyberspace, including Facebook and Twitter, her blogging community and other online networks.
Her main blog is Cross Creations Cove.

Strategic Business Planning for Creatives

Goal setting & business plans for creatives

Creative strategies for setting goals, creating business plans and more strategic planning the RIGHT-brained way!
These delightful tools were created especially for right-brained creatives (like ME and maybe YOU) because you can't squeeze a square peg into a round hole. (No wonder I used to hate doing this stuff so much. Now it is fun!).

ART and Creativity

the Artist Inside Me Let Out to Play

This right brained creative mind simply adores whimsical and fun strategies and designs, outside the box ideas, unique artistic perspectives, photography, crafts, art journals, scrapbooking... etc etc etc

Hilarious HUMOR!

Laughter is the Best Medicine

A sprinkle of humor gets included in most of her creations, just for fun. Yet some were created more in the spirit of humor than anything else, so ... enjoy and hope you grab a few giggles along the way. Betcha I can make you grin or even guffaw!

Redneck Humor

Naw, I ain't no redneck... jest known a few and dey done made me bust a gut agin and agin over der strange ways.

If you dig satire and redneck humor (like fans of Jeff Foxworthy and that nutty "GIT ER DONE!" Larry the Cable Guy) then you will love these funny redneck collections below.

Favorite Animals

Dolphins, Dogs & Birds...oh MY!

CrossCreations is a lover of all animals, but is particularly fond of dolphins, dogs (especially golden retrievers, been owned by two), and also birds.
Dear God...When I die, please reincarnate me as: either a dolphin or a sea gull or a golden retriever. THX from CC

Economy & Politics

Inflation, Corruption, Revolution & the Silver Lining

This political athiest is actually surprised to find herself writing about politics and the economy these days. However these days there's just so much going on behind the scenes that is too crucial to ignore. Many economists and forecasters warn that right now in 2011, there's an avalanche of evidence that we will soon face the worst inflation ever. For those who are ready to explore these changes and economic realities, the intent is simply to educate and then to go beyond the gloom and doom to discover the silver lining.

Baseball and Sports

MLB and the Baseball Cardinals

...with a 'flying tomato' thrown in (Shaun White, Olympic Champion Snowboarder) cause he was missing a category.

Health and Wellness

Parenting, Divorce & Teenagers...oh MY!

Personal Experience with PAS and Raising Teens

PAS is a very serious issue! So is raising teens. However 'teenage terrorists' is a mix of both the serious and the satire.

Crazy Christmas Creations

Off the Wall Xmas Satire

I wasn't exactly thrilled at the idea of Christmas in 2009. Yet I was doing this online class with the Rocket Moms and many of the weekly lens creation assignments had Christmas themes. SO... most of my holiday lenses were far beyond the traditional and the usual holly jolly type. Christmas satire can be hilarious considering the ludicrous things people do over the holidays in the pursuit of tradition. Those who have been there, done that... and are in to NEW traditions and crazy Christmas humor might enjoy these holiday lenses.

Other Holidays

Halloween & Thanksgiving

Warning: Ths lensmaster has only created ONE lens ever that is anything but G rated... not exactly one to share with your kids yet certainly nothing X rated either, just funny adult Halloween humor and some of the funniest adult costumes I've ever seen. Had a blast creating that one, LOL!

CrossCreations, Squidoo Award Winner

Giant Squid, Squidoo Angel & more...

GiantSquidAt Squidoo, a Giant Squid means a lensmaster who has created over 50 quality Squidoo lenses and was named to be one of the 'movers and shakers' in the land (sea) of Squidoo.

What else does this award mean? From one of our leaders, Megan Casey: "Giant Squid lensmasters do more than just create 50 well-written lenses. Giant Squid lensmasters use their imaginations to build truly personalized pages. They don't follow formulas; they create them. They don't copy, or purchase articles; they write them. Giant Squid lensmasters are inspirational. They become a part of the Squidoo community by giving of themselves either through their writing, their teaching, their helping, their sharing, their commenting and rating or their spirit."

Update December 2010: A CrossCreations lens was featured in the 2010 Giant Squids Showcase ! Out of hundreds of lenses created by Giants, 45 were chosen to be featured as best of the best lenses. What an honor! This lens ==> Golden Retriever Rescue<== had already been awarded a purple star earlier in 2010.
