Celebration Time (Giveaway Fun)

Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul.  

~Henry Ward Beecher

Greetings everyone!

I want to thank each and every one of you for your amazingly supportive and beautiful comments from my last post.  It's been a most difficult time for me, but I'm getting back on track.  And I know it's because of the loving support from all my wonderful friends

There's another reason for celebration - AND it's the cause of my delayed post here.  I wanted to wait and have everything ready.  For this couldn't be just any old post.  It's my 200th post!!!  But wait - there's more!  August marks the second anniversary of both my etsy shop and blog.   I think this calls for something happy, right?

I've met THE most wonderful people through blogging - and I'm honored to call them friends.  The blogging world really is a most magical place, wouldn't you agree?  I am always amazed by the generosity and kindness and abundance of talent.  And I'm thrilled to be a part of it all.

Although I haven't had that much time to create as of late, I'm truly humbled that my little etsy shop has been a success.  I am always grateful to make a sale, and it warms my heart to think that my work resides happily in someone's home or neck/ears/wrist!  :)

So to honor all of YOU for helping me get where I am today, I'm holding a giveaway!  What might I be giving away.  Well, it's everything you see here in this post.  There will be four lucky winners...

One winner will receive the fine art giclee print called "Close Your Eyes - Capture the Whimsical."  This is actually a project from one of my 21 Secrets class.  It was created in my art journal, but we made it into an  8 x 10 inch print.  It's very rich and bold in person - lots of deep orange and yellow.

One winner will receive the lovely Every Girl is a Princess necklace.  This is a one-of-a-kind necklace featuring a bevy of beautiful beads and a 1 1/2 x 1 1/2 inch print of my princess art affixed to wood.  The back of the print is painted, and I will sign the back of it.  The necklace will hang down 12 1/4 inches from the nape of your neck.  Please note that the pendant is NOT waterproof.

One winner will receive my Serenity waterfall photograph print.  It has been printed on lovely metallic paper and measures 8 x 10 inches.  The photo was taken at our local park, and it always makes me smile when I see this lovely waterfall.  There is something so wonderfully soothing about waterfalls.

One winner will receive the little crow photograph print.  It has also been printed on lovely metallic paper and measures 5 x 7 inches.  The photo was taken at the same park that houses the waterfall.  None of the leaves were the trees yet, and I was surprised to see these two crows just hanging out together - when one of them decided to swiftly descend to the earth.

So, there you have it.  Oh wait - I forgot!!!!  Each winner will also receive some surprise goodies in their package.  I'm so excited - I feel like doing the Snoopy happy dance!
