- Our two miniature schnauzers, Missy and Sally, passed away less than two weeks of each other.
- My Aunt passed away the Friday before Palm Sunday.
- My dear, sweet mother suffered a severe stroke and struggled for months with the aftermath before passing in November.
- Our family grew by one member - our daughter married the love of her life in July.
- I started this blog, which has brought growth in creativity and, more importantly, marvelous, supportive cyber-friends.
LET'S START 2014 WITH A GIVE AWAY
I designed and stitched the silhouette of a horse on 18-count canvas, then painted the bottom of a porcelain box using china paints. After completing the stitching, I mounted the canvas on the top of the box. It measures two inches in diameter.
I loved the design so much, I painted another canvas and another porcelain box. It also measures 2x2 inches.
My first giveaway of 2014 is the square box and canvas, above - complete with instructions and everything you will need to complete the project. It's a quick project, so the lucky winner won't have to spend tons of time on it - and will have a lovely piece when done.
Here are the guidelines and how to enter:
1. Be - or become - a follower to this blog - one entry.
2. Place a comment to this post - one entry.
3. Blog about the giveaway on your blog - one entry.
4. Send someone to my blog and, if they become a follower, you will get another chance to win.
Winner to be announced on January 15th.
Cheers!!!
2013 was a tough year for many.....I have great hopes for 2014! Your box finish is beautiful and I would love a chance to win this. My brother's oldest daughter loves horses and will be graduating in the spring ~ this would make a fantastic piece to finish and give her as a gift. Thanks for the chance!
