Year of Inspiration 80

Artwork #80

Thought this one was kind of fun....but true.

I will be participating in an ACTS mini retreat this Saturday at St. Gabriel the
Archangel. I will be giving a talk and have notecards to sell:) I did get 8 designs printed as notecards because I had people asking me for some. I don't expect to get rich off of this, so I am selling them in packs for 4 for $5. At the retreat, the ACTS group will get a portion of the sales.

Year of Inspiration 66

Artwork #66

I am currently planning to have some of these pieces printed as notecards. Some of my Facebook friends have requested it, and I may sell some at our ACTS mini retreat (to benefit ACTS in St. Gabes)...so I've been trying to pick out the ones that were most popular. I hope that I choose the ones that people will want! Will probably sell them in sets with multiple pieces per set...not all one saying. I will also sell them on my etsy sites, so will post here when they are available.

Yesterday, I had a friend ask if she could buy the one posted, so I am saying it again..the daily art is free for the asking! And I am marking the ones still available on this blog as well.

Package delivery day

I came home from painting furniture at my son's high school and had 4 packages in the door! Two for my oldest son and 2 for me. One was the notecard order--shown above--that I had made for a customer from Art in the Park. I took the letter photograph of the L with tulips, and used it as a border and I think it turned out really cute. Looks kind of like a garden.

My other package was my business cards--yay!--because I had run out of them at my last show. Didn't plan very well ahead.... And just a minute ago UPS rang my doorbell and left another package--a large bottle of Diamond Glaze. If you don't know what that is, it makes a crsytal clear raised finish on top of anything you want...I use it on ornaments. And it is almost as valuable as diamonds and rather hard to find around town.

So now I can work on my new ornaments. I'll try to take some pictures and post them later. I'm coming up with new Christmas words to use and my favorite new ones are HO HO HO and WISH.....
