Sorry for disappearing...I'm sick.

Marching into March!

I know it's a cliche, but seriously, time flies! I once complained about how the older you get, the faster times goes by and a friend said, no, it's just an illusion. He then gave me an example that illustrates the illusion of time. You know how when you turn over an hourglass, at first the sand slowly pours down into the bottom compartment. It's moving at the same pace the entire time it takes the sand to pass through into the bottom compartment, but at some point, near the end, it looks as if all of a sudden it's just racing at a faster pace, blub blub blub and it's gone. See, it's just an illusion.

I don't know about you, but it didn't make me feel any better.

Anyway, my last post was on February 22nd, 2009 and I didn't even notice that it was the one year anniversary, to the day, of this blog. WOW!

A celebration is called for! In honor of our 1 year anniversary we have an extra special giveaway for the month of March, (BTW, congratulations to Taffy on winning last month's gift, the bracelet!).


This month it's a signed copy of my book My Point Exactly.

How do you enter the giveaway? Tell me about one piece of art or craft you've been working on this year. Even better, send in a photo.

The contest starts today and ends March 9th @ noon. So, what have you been working on this year?

It's only fair that I show you what I've been working on here at the studio. Some new greeting cards with my sisters in mind ...

I miss my sisters.

This week's color experiment is a pastel combination. I'm not a pastel kinda gal but even I need to rest my eyes every once in awhile and play with something calming. It's a Colour Streams thread and I'm loving their combinations. You'll find the experiment in the How To section of our website.

Have a great, very great, week!
