5th item added for giveaway!

One of my favorite places!
www.artchixstudio.com
A selection of ORIGINAL collage sheets. If you are not a customer of this site, you should check it out!
I am posting this for tuesday on monday because I will be unavailable tomrrow(tue). Why? I am having book club here on wednesday and I suggested the book "The Last Chinese Chef"! I started the book 3 weeks ago and it is really good! But "art" got in my way and I haven't finished it! Since I lead the discussion, it would probably be a good idea if I read the book! We are having chinese food to go along with the discussion!
So tomorrow I will spend reading like crazy!
See you all wednesday morning with the next addition to the giveaway. You only need to comment ONCE to be eligible for any of the items!

Thanks for stopping by!

4th item to give away!

Blog anniversary, 400th post!

March 2nd will be my 400th post! To celebrate I am offering these vintage Venice postcards. The size is 1 3/4" x 5 1/2". My aunts traveled and these are some of the mini postcards they brought back ( am guessing the 40s).
Post a comment and I will add your name to the drawing March 2nd! Be sure to leave a "connection" for mailing!
