The first came from the bright and sunny, Kristen at Twinkle, Twinkle. Her art is so full of sunshine, love, joy and wonder. In this gorgeous picture, she added me, Danielle and herself. We all got to meet each other last fall, which was a very fun and cherished time. :) Thank you so much, Kristen. I am excited to hang this up where I can see it everyday!
P.S. If you don't know Kristen, you should definitely pop over and check out her blog, she does this wonderful Color of Summer Blogfest, which will be happening in just 3 weeks. Anyone can join and join you should. It's wonderful. :)
On the picture, she wrote... I Love Us. We are talented, generous and real. And our art - that intangible bit of fabulousness we create - allows us to blanket the world with joy. Yay, Us.
A couple of days later.....
I received this glorious bag that my other good bloggy friend made for me. Am I spoiled or what?
Robin over at Rasz Art makes these beautiful bags, as well as many other wonderful art pieces. I love these bags...she hand paints them, and she makes/paints the fabric for the art that she puts on the bags, such as, dragonflies, roses, flowers, crosses, grapes, vines...etc. They are fantastic, you should definitely visit her blog and look through her posts. She has created many beautiful totes. She also has draws and paints and takes pictures. She is multi-talented. And...she is a wonderful person that I have been very blessed to get to know. Thank you so much Robin. :)
I'm using this tote to carry around my books/sketching tools and other little projects that I like to take with me. Yay!!
I managed to capture this cute little guy the other day.
Just thought I'd share!
Have a bright and happy week!
Cheers!!!
What great gifts! I especially like the bag, how wonderful to put your projects into it and carry on..........
ReplyDeleteI'll probably have to check out that blog.
Hi Heather!

Kristin's art is so whimsical and beautiful....this piece is so special! I love that I could tell you are the red-haired princess and Danielle the pink-haired one....hee!
That is such a pretty tote bag, too! It looks so artsy....perfect for your sketching supplies!
We'll be leaving for our vacation again soon. If we are able to meet up again, we should do something arty while we catch up! Like sketch the same tree, or sit and paint?
That squirrel is a cutie!
