My blog is one year old on Sept 30th !!! To celebrate, I am doing a giveaway!
And all you have to do to enter the giveaway is leave me a comment on this post! Simple! It does not matter where you live or if you are a follower, just a comment is needed so that I will be able to contact you.... But if you would like to be entered again, post a link to my giveaway on your blog, let me know you have done so and you get entered a 2nd time. And if you want to be entered a 3rd time, become a follower (and point it out to me so I don't miss it). If you are already a follower just mention that in your comment and it will count as an entry.
I will randomly draw a winner on Oct 5th!
Good luck!
This is also my WOYWW post for this week as it is actually what is on my desk! If you like to see what all sorts of crafty and creative people have on their workdesks, pop on over to The Stamping Ground and join in the fun!
xoxo

Get Well Card
Here is a Get Well card I made for my DH's aunt. Nothing super fancy just a nice sweet card that I think she will like!
That bunny is soooo cute!

Making cards is fun!
I haven't made any cards for awhile and then decided I wanted to make one for one of my nephews' birthday. Which then led to making one for his brother and sister too since I had not made them a card for their past birthdays and hope they don't mind getting them now!
They were fun to make and I have to say I am pretty proud of the tree on the 2nd card! It is made from Tim Holtz Kraft Glassine paper and I just drew and cut out a tree shape and then crumpled it up! So easy and yet effective!
Thanks for visiting and looking!

Journal Pages
Some more journal pages that I have done recently. I have taken apart a coil-bound journal that has beautiful watercolor/mixed media pages so I can try out working on loose pages. I have the covers and the wire coil tucked away so that I can put it all back together at the end. It is nice to work on the pages free from the book but on the other hand I do enjoy having them bound together so I can flip thru and see my progress as I am working on the journal. I will continue to work on both this loose page journal and my bound journals and see if I gravitate towards one more than the other.

Princess Lollipop
I have finished the teeny tiny painting (2"x2") for my friend's dollhouse! It is a little picture of her sweet little dog Suzy. One of her nicknames is Princess Lollipop, so of course a princess needs a crown, right? And a little plaque with her name. And some gold leaf too!
And of course a collar made of jewels! It's probably a good thing this canvas was so little or who knows what else I may have added!

WOYWW Aug 31/11
Wow, I haven't done a WOYWW for awhile now and I sure have missed it! Especially all the wonderful WOYWWers I was meeting thru this blog hop. My schedule at work changed and therefore my routine changed a bit and I couldn't seem to post a WOYWW picture in time. Mind you this is very late as Wednesday is drawing to a end even here in Canada. And if you don't know what WOYWW is just pop over here to Julia's blog and find out! And join in too! You post a picture of What's On Your Workdesk (this) Wednesday and then join the blogroll and visit people desks all over the world!
What is here on my desk is a teeny tiny canvas that is just 2" x 2". I am making a little painting for a friend's dollhouse. In this picture I have just put a wash on the canvas so far, so you will have to come back to see what the finished painting will look like!

Journal Pages
I haven't been blogging much lately as I have not really been working on any "projects". I have been working in my art journal and these are 2 pages that I have completed. I have some other pages in varying stages of completion and I might post them as I finish them. I also have started a couple of online classes and the 2nd page here is from one of them, the True To You 2 class with Samantha Kira.
