it finally happened!

I finally did something...

I was sorting my little tubs and found this...

notice, I have had this since 2007...

and I found this print I did an eon ago...

knew right where the paint was...

if you were paying attention, you know I sorted that mess out the other day...

grabbed a brush and started playing...

Americana Warm White is the color...

add another coat and wait...

I ran out on the deck and saw this happening...

we got a good dusting out of it...

I even found this guy...

one of my April Fool's vintage postcards...

and now its dry...

I found the sand paper...

it was in the kitchen...

don't even ask...

I lightly sanded the entire thing...

you know me and my black polky dotted tape...

(I use it on everything!)

I taped the bottom and top...

then I taped the side edges...

folded it all under on the ends...

and put it together again...

(I did wash the glass)

I love it...

and I was under constant supervision...

by the way...

she has a name...

Buttercup...

and that concluded my playtime today...

its sad leaving this room...

but wait!

for all of you that held out this long...

I am having a give away...

I found these, too...

collages that I made and sent the images in to be printed on photo paper...

there are 5 of these photos...

ready to frame...

or throw darts at...

all you have to do is leave a comment...

and I will throw your name in the drawing...

dead line is midnight Friday night...

and the winner will be notified right away...

so that's all you need to do...

Keep Courtney in your prayers...

today is her big day...

I will post with news when I get it...
