IMG_0795

Hello Friends, How are you?  I am so excited because today is my fourth feature called “It’s All About You” and it’s all about featuring some of you each Sunday. The only problem is I don’t want any hurt feelings. Each one of you is talented in different ways…even… if you are a beginner or not. So please keep that in mind. (I think you all are fantastic)

Before we get started I wanted to announce a few winners. A big congrats to the winners below  Please email Patti with what prize you won in the subject line. Patti said I can post her email…ack.. Patti <patti@plint.design> (Patti is my prize assistant extraordinaire & she keeps me on track with all of these giveaways. I would not be able to have this many giveaways without Patti … SO THANK YOU PATTI ).

The winner of The W-Plus 9 stamps are  as seen in this post. HUGE THANKS TO W-PLUS 9 FOR THE VERY GENEROUS GIVEAWAY!

The winner of The Paper Smooches gift certificate is Barb Barnes as seen in this post. THANKS FOR THE AWESOME GIFT CARD PAPER SMOOCHES!

——————————————————————————————-

Ok let’s get started …. I was so delighted to hear that so many of you like this feature and thanks for weighing in. If I feature someone twice it’s because it takes to much time to see who’s work I shared last week plus my memory isn’t that good lol. There is so much talent and this is just a teeny tiny sampling of what I am seeing so please keep that in mind. I love what you are doing
