New Blog Giveaway Winner

Hello!

I've had to choose another giveaway winner since the first one, Pam, hasn't replied to my emails.  I only hope that she is ok wherever she is.  I had such an excellent response to my first giveaway and thought that one of the other people who entered should have a chance of winning, so I used Random.org again to help me choose.

So the new winner of my giveaway is Claire!  Congratulations Claire!  I'll send you an email to officially announce you as the winner and (hopefully!) you'll mail me back letting me know your snail mail details and your prize will be on its way to you soon.

Thanks again to all of those who entered and as a reminder, here are some photos of the mini envelopes and notes that Claire has won:

Watercolour Works in Progress Plus New Listings

Here are a few pics of the things I'm currently working on:

These are two watercolour ACEOs that I started last night and am trying to finish today whilst the baby sleeps.  The ideas for these ACEOs came about because ever since listing a watercolour greeting card in my misi shop, I've become fascinated with the character of a blue bird.  I don't really know why but when you get little inklings like this, you have to follow them don't you? I'm not sure where to list them yet since I have shops on etsy, misi, folksy and coriandr but like TomatoTea, I should really consider choosing one or two shops and just concentrate on those, shouldn't I?  This is the original greeting card:

I'm also working on these watecolour paintings:

I've also been listing some bookmarks, gift tags and mini envelopes on Coriandr:

      

Aren't they cute and lovely? Well I think so!!!  The pink hearts on the bookmarks and gift tags were created using a paper punch and clean Quality Street sweet wrappers and I like the fact that I've upcycled something to create something else that useful.

So these are the things keeping me busy right now and I'm really enjoying myself.  Look out for a post about Lynne and her PiratePixieCrew shop on Coriandr coming up later today.
