Let yourself shine


Having so much fun playing with the August Songbird Avenue kit! This little doll is the youngest daughter of a dear friend and let me tell you, this angel is a little spitfire when she wants to be. One of those kids you just know is going to change the world someday.
Make sure you comment on the previous post to get in on the give-away for two of these kits! You'll be having a GOOD time and doing some GOOD at the same time. Doesn't get any better than that.

It's a give-away!


How cool is this: Miss Kimberly Kwan (yeah, the photo-nista extraordinaire) is such a proponent of doing GOOD that she purchased and then gifted me with a free mega-kit from Songbird Avenue for me to give to YOU! I'll match that gift with one of my own so have TWO to give away. If you're digi, you'll want this amazing kit that DONATES 100% OF PROCEEDS to charity (this month it's the Make-A-Wish Foundation) and if you're not digi, now is the time to give it a try. What better way then with a beautiful kit for free that also does SO MUCH GOOD? I'll randomly draw a name from the comments on Friday, Aug. 24 and another on Monday, Aug. 27. (I'll be honest and say my blog readership isn't that freakin' huge so I'll need a few days to get someone to comment, LOL). Thanks Kim for thinking of me, and more importantly, for thinking of SongBird Avenue and Make-A-Wish.
edit for clarity: The two winners will each receive a pre-paid gift certificate so they can download the kit (or one from a different month if your prefer) at no cost to them. They were graciously donated to me to give away by Kim Kwan to help such a worthwhile site and cause. Of course, if you don't win and still want the kit, they can be purchased from Songbird Avenue for $8 (ALL of which goes to charity.)

First ride



Something a little different from me, I think. Really like it though, more randomly collagey than I've done before. It's a backwards hybrid LO. I sewed the circles to the fabric (not intending to do a LO, just playing on my sewing machine), loved it so much I brought it downstairs and just looked at it lots. (Do you do that?) Finally adhered it to cardstock as a "base", scanned it in and finished it up digitally. I like the softer, but not pastel, color.

Indy was SO HAPPY to get to ride a horse (her self-proclaimed very favorite thing in the whole world.) Then when the time came, so nervous. Sweetie said later, after it was all done, "it was weird mom, it was SO HOT outside (it was over 100) then when I got on the horse I was FREEZING and thought I needed to throw up or run away really fast." Too funny. I explained the concept of adrenaline and "fight or flight" but she insisted she wasn't nervous. LOL
