And the winner is...

Marvin K!!!  

My DH & I put all the names of people who posted or emailed about the Shabby Heart in one of our Tibetan singing bowls.  Then he did the drawing!  He hopes no one gets mad at him.  LOL!  Thanks to everyone for their Blogoversary wishes.  Good luck next year!

ATCs

I've wanted to get back into colored pencil painting, but for some reason I just haven't started.  So this last week I thought I could at least do a couple little ATCs.  The size is small so it's not so threatening.  I really had fun & am remembering all the techniques I used to use.  So here's the two I did this week:

They're just copies of things I've seen in magazines, but it's just practice so I don't get so stressed.  I did these on mat board.  Allows for alot of layers!  Anyway, hope you all have a great week!  

Happy creating!

Blogoversary Give Away!

Hi, all! Remember these little critters??? Well, it's almost my Blogoversary & I found out that some bloggers have give-aways on those days. Well, I couldn't think of what to give away! Something I made? Something I designed? I had no clue until...one day someone asked me if I would give them some of my patterns for the Tin Folk (goddess dolls) that I made to fit in Altoid tins. Well, now...that sounded like a good idea! I had already researched a bunch of goddess forms, sketched versions of them, including a pecked owl goddess petroglyph form, and had mounted them on board for myself. But if I could let someone use the same patterns for personal use, why not? Plus it would help recycle all those old tins! You could make a goddess, or in my case, Tin Folk, & use the tin as a home for the doll, or gift box! Also, these are small enough that you could use the patterns to make ornaments & then use the tins as keepsake boxes. How you would decorate the tins would be up to you.

So...my Blogoversary is May 24th! That's like almost 3 weeks from now. I will have to retrace the forms onto a sheet to make a pattern, but I think I could get it done in that time. (What's adding one more thing to the list?) ;)

Here's the deal...if anyone wants a copy of a FEW of my patterns for wee dolls that will fit in an Altoid tin, I will email you a copy of the sheet of patterns. You may use these for your personal use, or for pin money, but please to not sell, or give away, my patterns. Hopefully you will be able to use them as gifts, and help our planet by recycling those tins!!! This offer is only good until my Blogoversary, & after I have created the page to email you! I hope that's clearer than mud! :)

So leave a comment, or email me (I will need your email to send the sheet) that you would like the patterns, & I will send them to you as soon as I can. Happy Blogoversary to me!!! Enjoy!
