Second Give away!

Our second give away is offered by member Pinky.  She has collected this great selection of items that will appeal to those of you who enjoy paper crafting.  Pinky makes wonderful detailed greeting cards, ATC's and collages among other things.

There are tags, beads, flower shapes, stickers, all the things in these photos from today's post are included.

She is also contributing one of the cards that she has become so good at making, seen above.

The rules are the same as for the first give away.  To enter, please leave a comment on this post.  Make sure we have a way to contact you in case you win.  We will pick a winner on March 8th at our meeting.  It will be a random choice, we will pick your name out of a hat.  If you are already a follower you will get two chances, or if you sign up as a new follower that will give you a second chance. 

Good luck!

More from last week at Pinky's

Karen was getting a big kick out of the little reindeer that Pinky gave her. She is so talented and balanced the reindeer on her little chocolate snowman;-)

This is what Mary was working on, creating more Christmas cards. They look marvelous!

Karen gave us all hand made cards and this is the one she gave to Jan, along with the envelope it came in. Nearly as much work goes into the envelope as into the card! Lovely. The dogs on the card are Karen's two dogs, Joe and YumYum. Sweet! Thanks Karen! And thanks to Pinky for the stocking full of goodies and for the delicious lunch you laid out for us. Your house looked so nice, all decorated and warm.

Question of the month: Pinky's reply

This week we feature Pinky's reply to our question of the month, "How did you get started making your art?  What steps led you to where you are, what you are creating now?"  The photo above shows Pinky eating red velvet birthday cake at Joan's house.

"April is the reason and Mary too. We all went to Aprils and made 20 cards. That's the first time I had ever done anything like that before. I found I wanted to keep going and I started collecting bits & pieces of stuff for cards."

"I don't know that you could call mine art, but it certainly is fun and being with you all is the best !  I think you all had a part in it. April , though, showed us how to make the cards. I probably would have never come up with that."

Love-

Pinky

Above is the cigar box Pinky recently altered.  I think it is beautiful and quite elegant.
