A little gift from me

I'm celebrating my birthday today. I told my Mom this morning - I'm 46 (gasp!) and still playing with crayons and papers and colors... I'm not sure if that's cool or not, but I know that I'm happy when I do it and lucky that I can.
Because you are always so nice and supportive and because I'm getting so much attention today and because Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and it's coming up, I thought it would a great time for a little giveaway. 

I think I have 16-17 different digital collage sheets in my etsy shop right now. I would like to offer a free sheet of your choice to anyone who wants it. Send me a bit of positive energy today if you wish (I need it - still fighting the cold), write in the comments the name of the collage sheet would you like and don't forget to leave an email address so I can send it.
 Visit my etsy store to look at all the choices, but don't buy the free collage sheet there... just write your choice in the comments and I'll do my best to email it as soon as possible.
Feel free to share the information about my giveaway on your blog or facebook.
It will be open until Friday, and everyone is welcome to it.
Have a happy day and thank you once again!

  1. Happy Birthday to you!!!!!
    I hope you feel better soon, after the nasty cold.
    How nice of you to offer some of your gorgeous drawings. They always make me happy when they show up in my Google Reader.

  3. Happy Birthday, saw your birthday and FB and couldn't read any of the wishes. I know they were good though.
    So, for your birthday present I would like Many Faces No 1. This seems a little backwards so I will send you one of my collage sheets.
    Hope your cold is much better too.

  30. Hello, and Happy Birthday! It is so unfair to feel poorly on your Birthday - it's such a special day to celebrate. The anniversary of the day we were blessed to have you here ;-) I am so thrilled Julie posted this so I could meet you, your work is inspiring and gorgeous. This is so very generous of you, I adore "YOU ARE ENOUGH" !!! What everyone has said about your 40's is the truth - they are the best years. I'm not done with the 50's yet so I'll let you know how they were when you get there LOL. I was loving your Etsy shop so much I was wishing you had a blog so I could read about your work and get to know more about you, any chance you could start one? You have so much to share and we really really want to know ;-) Thank you so much for just being YOU. {hug} Feel better soon.
