I have taken time to fit in Valentine Swap crafting and these colors on the right in the vintage photo are dreamy and romantic don't ya think?! Oh, dear my only trouble w/beginning to craft again by way of "swaps" is that one tends to obsess over all the colors and placement of letters/words/images...and the person who has longed to come out again does so only to spend hours on little details/thinking and then having to stop just when ideas begin flowing like a mighty river. Oh goodness. It is a start anyway and fulfilling to accomplish artwork. hmmm that is what would happen at the couple craft shows I did, my little creations would not stand for just simple, no. They liked being embellished and would cost more than my neighbors tables that held the simple crafts (but none more than $30 if any at that price at all)...they did not like the kind of vintage/whimsical/shabby (Eclectic) stuff me and my husband liked. wow, I find such treasure that I love in all of your little blog spaces!Oh, and I am leading up to something else, speaking of places..."oh the places you'll go.." I made the mistake of visiting some new friends and linked to a few more and now here I am, sleepy girl, but needing to tell you of 2 new giveaways!!! You will find the link/banner to the home of Nancy Lee Malay on my side bar. Talk about gorgeous and whimsical in one. She is having an Easter basket giveaway, but be sure to check out her awesome site and great creations. I love them all!!!
AND, Sylvia at www.sylviaanderson.blogspot.com is also having a "Valentine Giveaway", but hurry over there and visit her place as she is ending hers soon, last date to sign up 1/31/08! She has nice things too!
Goodness Gracious, look at the time! Oh, Jillian I thought I'd post in response to your lovely "tag" that you passed onto me, but I'm just plain poofed (dd's saying) out and gotta "head em up and move em out" (me that is). I ran out of time!! I promise I will do it soon!
Good night and God bless
Carol
