Hi Sandee: I was very blessed to find your sweet blog tonight, and I had A LOT to look at. OK, now that I've seen it all, I want to comment as follows:
In learning a new word each day, how many do you actually retain to the point of being able to use them in conversation or in your written vocabulary? I'm very curious because I once knew a lady who did this and she had the most extensive and impressive vocabulary I've ever know, so this interests me quite a bit.

Second, I must say that you are icredibly creative. You have so many sweet projects, and you are able to think and craft "outside the box". Your creativity is not one-dimensional, and you have a lot of versatility in your art. I admire this skill.

Lastly, I want to tell you about a couple of challenges where I'd just LOVE to have you play along.
One is Word Art Wednesday - Always Anything Goes and many weeks are double prize weeks (new challenge starts Wednesday) and you can enter 5x week.
here is that blog addfress:
www.wordartwednesday.blogspot.com

Next is V's Sweet Ideas. Their challenges are monthly, and their current theme is LOVE and the prize is a $15 Freckled Fawn gift certificate. You can enter this one 2x month.

I have chewed your ear quite a bit, but I really enjoyed your blog and it was definitely worth all the time I spent browsing. I WILL be back. I'd also like to invite you to my personal blog. Whew! I've given you A LOT of information. My personal blog is:
www.karen-mycuprunnethover.blogspot.com and if you would like, we could follow one another's blogs. I always like to ask permission first - just in case. But you are welcome to follow mine, and I'd like to follow yours if that's OK with you.

Have a blessed week and thank you for letting my ramble a bit. I know it's a lot of information to process, but I look forward to seeing more of your art, and so I told you all this in the hopes we will connect.
Hope to see LOTS more of your wonderfully creative art and talents.
Karen

I heard there was a giant adorable frog over here looking for my lips and I can see that I heard right! Mwah!!

(I also heard you were getting some nasty weather over there tonight. I hope the power stays on, Sandee, and there is no flooding.)

Hi Sandee! I just love this little frog with his "big ole" web feet! You did a great job! Thanks for your comment on my scrapbook page! I wanted to keep it very simple to focus on the vintage black and white photo. Oh, I love the television too!

:)) Sandee, we really could not have taken a more different approach on the theme... *giggle.

Love your prince...he IS a prince, isn't he? - or does HE kiss me, which brings me some good luck instead of a prince (to be honest: I would prefer the luck *lol). You see - I am not really up to date when it comes to frogs kisses...

Love the fresh green in midwinter!
