In the Pink

Well yesterday was kind of a bummer. I planned on sitting down and painting all day. Instead I spent the morning dealing with an "unauthorized use of my artwork" issue. That and the dreary weather gave me a ginormous (sp?) headache.
The headache and rain are still lingering, but I'm pretty sure the other issue is resolved...so I won't mention any names.

Anyway, I did get some painting in and finally finished up my June calendar frog this morning. I guess I'm feeling the pink this week.

Anyone tired of this picture taking backdrop yet? I should probably think about mixing it up a bit.

So, as with all my Calendar Frogs, she is over on ebay
with a reasonable starting bid of $24.99.
I'll be seeing a lot of girls in pretty gowns tonight. It's prom night here in the Mon VAlley. I promised my nephew, Shane, that his "Aunt Mommy" would come up to the high school for the Grand March. Hopefully the rain will stop and I'll get a few good pictures.

Have a great weekend. Check back here bright and early tomorrow for more pictures of my Pfatt items and the link in case you are interested in taking one home. :)
I've also listed a few little card sets in my etsy shop if you'd like to take a gander.

Far Away

No time to talk/type.
Just wanted to show you my new painting.
You can read about her over at Ebay.

What a doll!

Winona has flown right off of the canvas! I really enjoyed creating her and hope she does well over at the Pfatt Marketplace. She'll be there on the 10th...along with her "flat" version.




She's about 8" tall and has a button and hemp loop on her back for hanging. I'll need to take a picture of that too. I think her back is nearly as pretty as her front.

Speaking of pretty. Look at my wisteria!
This is the first year that it has put on such a lovely display for us.

of another Penguins win. :) We're 1/2 way there!
I guess I'm going to have to accept Hossa as one of our own now considering his stellar performance. But Colby and Eric will always have a place in my heart. :(

I've also been finishing up my Pfatt pieces for May. Here's my chubby little Wish FAiry. I'm not sure if I'll give her a name or not.


Perhaps Winona suits her.
My 2nd piece is also finished, but I still have to take photos. You'll have to stop back by for that.

See you then.

And 3 months later...

...my second little apron bunny is finally finished!

I snuck her into my Etsy Shop yesterday.

She has a fluffy little tail and ribbon loop for hanging.



Like so. I hope to make more soon. Ha, we'll see.

It's grocery day...AGAIN. I think I'll stop in at JoAnn fabric and see what's new so that the day's not a total blah. And considering that the Penguins won again last night, even Walmart can't dampen my spirits. Did anyone else see George Laroque kiss DAn Potash on the cheek after his interview. :) The look on his face was priceless!

If you have time head on over to Tina's blog and see the lovely pictures she took of "Going to the Chapel". I wish she could take all of my photos! Also, Ellia has posted some pictures of the ABC book project that I contributed to. It looks like she did a wonderful job of putting it all together. Thanks Ellia!

Happy surfing!
