Counting Crows, Ghouls Gone Wild, and Three Giveaways!

It's been a crazy busy weekend, but soooooooo productive! (I feel the same way about productive weekends as most people feel about relaxing weekends, hehe - they make me feel good)...

First, I have to share this treasure box, inspired by an old English divination rhyme for counting crows (and yep - that's where the band got the name). The crow perched on top is sculpted from paperclay, and inside the box there's a trail of little crow footprints. LOTS of fun, this one, and listed now on eBay:

Next up, as promised - "Ghouls Gone Wild!"

The treasure chest is also listed on eBay, and the little canvas can be found beginning tomorrow on the EHAG Art blog's Frightful Fete Giveaway, so do run over there and enter!





Next, a giveaway for blog followers! This sparkly star shaped trinket box will find a home with one of the wonderful people who follow the blog here....



If you're already a follower, you're entered automatically, and if you leave a comment, you'll be entered twice! If you're not a follower, all you have to do is click "follow" (on the right) and sign in with a username or email and password. It's a great way to keep up with all the blogs you love, and receive notification when new posts appear.

The drawing will close at midnight April 14th, and I'll draw the winning name on Wednesday the 15th. IMPORTANT - I must have a way to access the winner's email address. The easiest way to do this is to post it on your blogger profile, but if not, please include it in your comment here. If I can't reach you, I'll need to draw another name....

Finally, drop by the PFATT blog for another giveaway! I didn't have time to contribute any goodies to this one, but do drop by and enter - lots of talent there!

That's about it for now...I'm off to pour a glass of sangria, and toast all of you who enable me to spend my days dreaming and creating - I can't thank you enough!!

Artful Blessings,

(¯`v´¯)

Giveaway Winners!

Drum roll, please.....

There were almost 40 entries for the collector's giveaway, and as I wrote all the names on pieces of paper this morning, I was soooooooooo wishing I could send everyone a piece! Your support and encouragement, especially during these difficult economic times, means more than you'll know. And I DO hope that eventually I will be able to send you each a little something - the plan is to have these blog giveaways for collectors monthly, so please do keep checking back. The next giveaway will be in March and the rules will be the same - anyone who's purchased my work in the past 60 days will be entered automatically, and anyone who's recently bid or has ever purchased my work and leaves a comment here will also be entered. If you fall into both categories; that is, if you've purchased work in the last 60 days AND leave a comment, you'll be entered twice. :)

Okay...I'm getting on with it!

The first name drawn was Andrea (email on it's way!)

The second name drawn was Barbara (email on it's way as soon as we know which piece Andrea chooses!)

And the third name drawn was Renee (I need your email address!!)

No clue what the march giveaway will be yet - I'm torn between something with an Easter or St Patrick's twist, or pure Halloween! (stay tuned...)

Thanks so much for participating, everyone! I'm off to work on that very detailed piece I've been telling you about....

Have a magical and creative weekend!!
