Lucky Streak

A couple weeks ago I entered a lovely giveaway on Rebecca Ersfeld's A Repurposed Life blog to win this gorgeous handmade collage pocket. Truly, the photos don't do it justice because it is much more beautiful in person.

 There are so many exquisite details. . . .

 Like this tattered bird tag and the polka-dotted sheer ribbon tied on the wire hanger. 

However, as if the lacy pocket wasn't enough . . . 

 Rebecca tucked lots of vintage goodies inside the pocket.

 Just look at all of this . . . 

 I was like a kid opening my stocking on Christmas morning!

I can't begin to tell you how grateful I am to Rebecca, for offering such a generous prize. 

Thank you SO much from the bottom of my heart! 

Twelve Days of Holiday Giveaways

Today is the first day of 12 Days of Holiday Giveaways over on the Where Women Create blog. Each day, from now through December 12th, the site will feature four artists who are giving away four fabulous prizes. I am so honored to be taking part again in this fun event. Be sure to check it out here.

Twelve Days of Christmas Traditions

This month I am taking part in a wonderful event on the Where Women Create Blog called The 12 Days of Christmas. Various artists and I are sharing our favorite holiday traditions as well as offering great giveaway prizes. In fact there are THREE prizes being offered EVERYDAY! Here's how it works:

"Each day between December 1st thru December 12th, the Where Women Create Blog will feature three fabulous artists. They will be sharing their cherished holiday traditions, plus giving away a fantastic prize. All you have to do for a chance to win is to leave a comment on each of the 12 posts. (Limit - one comment on each post please) You can comment on any of the posts at any time during the 12 day event."

On the 3rd Day of Christmas, I am offering the very last of my limited edition Sweet Vintage Wreath Kit to one lucky winner. For a chance to win be sure to leave your comment on the Where Women Create Blog by clicking here.

Good Luck to everyone!

Beautiful Thursday

Not much happening around here today, other than the fact that I have to clean the house as we are having my brother and sister-in-law over for dinner tomorrow. It's a busy weekend with Mother's Day on Sunday and Saturday is my mother-in-law's birthday as well. We will be celebrating non-stop all weekend. The diet will have to wait until Monday to start.

Jessi, Where Are You?????

I'm still waiting for Jessi Nagy to get back to me about winning the giveaway I held last week. I've left comments on her blog twice to let her know. I know she was at an art retreat when I announced the winner and she is probably still trying to catch up on things. Hmmmm...I think I will just sit back and see how long it takes her to realize she has won. LOL!! So if you're reading this Jessi, I need your mailing address. (Just click on my profile at the top right for my email addy)

I've been creating more pages for my art journal. I got some backgrounds completed which are still waiting for me to journal on them. I worked all day at the office yesterday and had to concentrate on boring things instead of arty projects, so now I am trying to make up for it. What projects have you been working on these days?
