from the heart

He who thanks but with the lips

Thanks but in part;

The full, the true Thanksgiving

Comes from the heart.

WISHING YOU A VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING

ART IS YOU - GLOBAL BABY!

for many years I have been gushing about our fave retreat, where we vend and teach annually - the East Coast Art Event - Art is You in Connecticut
Being alumni since the first year, we have had the pleasure to experience its growth
every year getting better and better
the super sweet & talented Sal & Ellen outdo themselves every time

In 2011 they introduced a beautiful art retreat to the West Coast - ART IS PETALUMA
and we are super-excited to vend & teach in Petaluma in 2012

and for 2012 they are going global baby!  ART IS YOU - AUSTRALIA

it looks absolutely fantastic

what a wonderful experience - spread the word!!!

loss for words

excitement doesn't begin to describe the feeling I had when I was perusing Stampington's website and stumbled upon their preview of the new Sew Somerset coming out December 1st

holy-cow my first cover!!!!!!!!!
I knew my Mixed Media Sewing Cards had been accepted as an article but I didn't have a clue that I was in the running for the cover.  Make sure to grab a copy - there are a ton of great articles, techniques and beautiful eye-candy.  I am so touched to be included with all sorts of talented artists.
at a loss for words but if I had sum it up...delighted, surprised, in shock...such a cool opportunity :)
