I was reading Sue Jones' Blog about blogging by email so I am giving it a go. How neat this will surely ----errrrr surely prompt me to blog more frequently - actually I am sure it will.
anyway let's see if this works...

Haven't posted for ages so talking to my redneck mate Norval has given me a boost to write something...anything! I *do* have alot to say but alot of it just stays in my head - it's not just blogging, it applies to keeping up with emails and diaries as well.
You know I have been SO surprised that I seem to be selling mostly foreign language Christmas cards. Quite strange... Here is my best seller since mid Novemeber

and this one has been my best selling non-Christmas card

It always fascinates me as to what sells and what doesn't so it will be interesting what the next week or so will bring...

look at these little beauties!

Aren't they soooo special? I bought them for my grand daughter Talia. When I saw Ujean's painting I KNEW they were Talia to a T!! and how wonderful they are in real life!
Ujean does the most beautiful paintings and she is a warm and very gracious person as well. Treat yourself to a wander through her gallery here

Freeform Peyote Beaded Bracelet

I've been stuck too long in drawing etc and needed a break. So... I thought I would play with my beads again. I have always been fearful of the peyote stitch but this time I persevered and made this (click for a bigger view):


I am not sure if I have finished with the embellishments yet and then all is needed is the loop and button closure. Definitely going to try this in a different colour scheme.

So much fun making these!

I've made quite a few so head on over to my Zazzle site and have a good squizz!
AND I got a Best of the Day award for this design:

Denise's "real life" storefront display!

I got this excited email from Denise:(find out more about her here)
I just wanted to send this (maybe too large) composite of some of my work for sale at Treasures in Time downtown Bristol. We have 22 framed pieces in as of today and cards, postcards and note cards. I have had lots of comments especially on Lillie. The framed art has only been in a couple of days but I am excited and a little weirded out to see my work on display downtown. :-) CLICK ON THE PHOTO FOR A LARGER VIEW
