AND THE WINNER FOR THE MARCH GIVE A WAY IS…..

Don’t you feel like you are at the Academy Awards about to give your acceptance speech!

Tonight Gary used the Random Generator to generate a number for a winner..

THE ENVELOPE PLEASE…                     DEB POOLE is the winner of the March Give A Way!

Congratulations to Deb.

I belong to a couple of postcard groups online.  I usually try to stick to the swaps with 25 members. That one is Art2mail.com  There is a link on my website for the group.  Art4mail is another one I joined and there are a few splinter groups from those also.  I was in some  swaps with 4 or less.  Hippity Hop and something that begins with the letter D are the ones I just finished. 

You can see below what I decided to do. I dont know why the cards did not scan as well as I thought they should but you can get the idea. I am starting with the two I made yesterday.

 Hippity Hop

D is for Dragonfly

Black Swap. Colors had to be black and up to two other colors. I had black thread, black print, and black ink.  Beige for my extra color.

I thought you all would enjoy the beautiful cards I received this week. Hope you enjoy.

I was cleaning out my desk and found something I thought you all may enjoy

Alphabet Prayer

A lthough things are not perfect

B ecause of trial or pain

C ontinue in thanksgiving

D o not begin to blame

E ven when the times are hard

F ierce winds are bound to blow

G od is forever able

H old on to what you know

I magine life without His love

J oy would cease to be

K eep thanking Him for all the things

L ove imparts to thee

M ove out of “Camp Complaining”

N o weapon that is known

O n earth can yield the power

P raise can do alone.

Q uit looking at the future

R edeem the time at hand

S tart every day with worship

T o “thank” is a command

U ntil we see Him coming

V ictorious in the sky

W e’ll run the race with gratitude

X alting God most high

Y es, there’ll be good times and yes some will be bad, but

Z ion waits in glory, where none are ever sad

No in this case the blog monster from  blog hell ate my pictures. Bear with me I will have them back on soon hopefully.   Maybe the Wizard of Blog, Carol has a suggestion or can reload them from her magical place.  I know one thing, my head hurt from even thinking about it.

This is a test in a way. I have been having problems with the blog loading pictures. I decided to see if this one would load.  This is a picture of me and my husband Gary.

We’ve been getting some irritating spam comments lately, so we’ve set the blog to require approval if you have never posted a comment before. If you have commented any time in the past, everything is fine and your comment will appear just like always.

So if you are new and your comment doesn’t show up right away after you post it, be patient. We’ll review and approve you pretty quickly.

Thanks!

Carol, who pulls the levers behind the curtains.
