Mothering Instincts Week Ends with a Giveaway!

Hi Everyone~

"Mothering Instincts" Week gave me the perfect opportunity to have a big giveaway! The winner will be announced the Saturday night before Mother's Day. If you'd like to post a blog button on your sidebar, that would be awesome!

There will be one winner. To enter the drawing, just become a follower and leave a comment on this post.

There are so many goodies, it's impossible to list them all and I couldn't get them all into the photo! But, in addition to brand-new store-bought items, I also made flowers, tags, and embellishments for your art.

I also wanted to show you some of my creations that are in my Etsy store...No, they are not part of the give-away, but I thought you'd have fun seeing them!

A Touch of Paris--"Girlie Girl" Week Continues

Hi Everyone~

Oh, how I love everything with a Paris theme! So, I created the piece above with one of my favorite images. As many of you know, I design for Shabby Cottage Studio and I couldn't resist a chance to make this with one of their images.

"Just Married" Clipboard and Tag

And next is a very special commissioned piece that I created for a wedding. It is a true thrill for me to create art that is in keeping with a specific theme that someone wants~pure fun!

Featuring vintage images from my own collection, plus

images from The Graphics Fairy and Shabby Cottage Studio,

in addition to graphic embellishments.

Thank you for coming to visit! It is always awesome to have you come over and spend some time here.

Girlie Girl Week Continues

For The Gingersnaps Creations Challenge

Hi Everyone:

This piece is dedicated to all the young women who go to work every day and have to leave small children in daycare--those that juggle the endless responsibilities of home and office. That is why the young baby (from Dezinaworld) is perched on the typewriter indicating that even when a young mother is at work, her heart is with her child.

I first created it in Photoshop.

A close-up of the completed clip-board.

Also, my friend Julie from A Vintage Chic is an awesome artist and she is on the design team of Crafty Secrets. She had a blog hop last week--and I won!

I received an email from the wonderful owner, Sandy of Crafty Secrets, who allowed me to choose some of her special graphics to craft with--how exciting!

Thank you Julie and Sandy!
