Fun Mail

Look what I got in the mail yesterday.  Actually it arrived last week, I just couldn't seem to get to my PO box before the dang office closed until yesterday.

So anyway, Look what I got in the mail yesterday!

My own Embroidery Saint Print made by Holly at Sweetheartville.

How cool is that!

(please ignore the sad ficus in the background)

I won it over on Heather's blog Audrey Eclectic Folk Art.  If you haven't been by there, you really should take the time to check it out.  It is her birthday month and she has been having drawings every week in celebration. If you hurry you can get in on the last drawing for an original sketch. As much as I want to I haven't entered any more of the drawings, having won once it would make me feel totally greedy.

On another note, check out these wee little rag roses I've been stitching away on.

I plan to put them into some embroidery pieces.

Now, hop on over to enter Heather's Drawing!

Baby trashes bar in Las Palmas

Too Funny!

I found this on A Cup Of Jo this morning and just had to share. It's by a Swedish director Johannes Nyholm and is definitely worth watching.

I hate to spend money on things like irons, when I go shopping for one I want the $100 iron, but always by the $30 one.

Well, Bitter Betty is having a giveaway for one of those fancy shmancy irons and I'm posting here for an extra chance to win. Maybe if I win I'll buy a tiara to wear while I do my pressing.

She has way more info about said iron over on her blog.

Mad Tea Party 2010

It's that time of year again! A Fanciful Twist is hosting the annual Mad Tea Party.

I have been visiting all these Fabulous parties she throws for a few years, but haven't taken part in any. I signed up for the Halloween party but had to drop out, partly due to procrastination but mostly because we ended up moving right in the middle of it.

So, I'm putting this post up as a public proclamation that I will be joining in on the Mad Tea Party 2010 (barring any unforeseen circumstances). Maybe that will stave off the procrastination bug.

Now I just need to find that &@!# Muse that has been hiding from me lately.

So, click on over to A Fanciful Twist and Join the party =)

Totus Mel Necklace Giveaway

This morning on Twitter I came across a giveaway for one of Totus Mel's fab necklaces.

One World One Heart Giveaway

One World One Heart is the brainchild of A Whimsical Bohemian. The idea is to bring blogger's together, and maybe find a kindred spirit or two, or three. I was part of OWOH last year too, at the time I was brand new to blogging, by new I mean I had only been doing it for like 2 or 3 days...seriously. I found quite a few blogs during that event that I still follow.

I could have sworn though that this one didn't start until the 28th, so I am running fast to catch up to the magic carpet...wait for me!!!!!

This year my giveaway is going to be one of my shaded path prints. For every 100 people that enter I will add another print.

If you are so inclined you can pick a different print from my Etsy shop, but this is not about sending people to my shop, it's about blogging, so if ya don't wanna ya don't hafta!

To Enter:

Just leave a comment on this post =) easy as pie.

Be sure that I have some way to contact you if you win.

Winners will be announced on the 15th of February.

Anyone who has a blog is welcome to enter.

Last time I checked there were 500+ taking part in this event and I'm sure many more to join.

If you would like to check out some of the other blogs taking part, click HERE.

Thanks for stopping by!

Boooooo

Boooooooo on me. I was supposed to be part of A Fanciful Twist's Halloween party group, but I ran out of time so I had her take my name off the list...insert sad face here. This month has just really got the better of me. So instead I will leave you with this creepy photo.

Now I think I will go take a look at some of the blogs that did put up their Halloween post.
