And I am off! And a FUN giveaway…

Tomorrow, I leave for Summer CHA. This is a giant craft show that I go to every year for Hero Arts. I work the booth, laugh, teach classes, see friends, go to meetings, laugh more, do make and takes and get very little sleep… the whole works.

And, I am so very happy to say that I pretty much wrapped up the HUGE project I am doing for Hero Arts. Just a few minutes ago. I have some last minute finishes to do. But the guts of it? It is DONE. Whew. Once it is announced at CHA I will be sure to share here.

I have done some samples for my favorite companies/friends at the show. Want a peek?

Peeks

I also am thrilled to have a giveaway for you.

Recently, I have been collecting fun, playful prints for an upcoming remodel of the kid's bathrooms. I plan to have everything white, except TONS of these bold prints and a mix of bold towels. I have been collecting some on etsy for awhile now. Recently, I got a batch that are by far my favorites. I did something I rarely do – I asked her if I could give one away on my blog, knowing you all would love them. And guess what? She is super sweet and said I could give away two. Sweet.

So, HERE is the shop I love. Her name is Lori McDonough, and she even has a great blog HERE. These are the prints I got…

THIS one makes me smile…

Il_430xN.156100834 THIS one makes me giddy…

SO… now is your chance to win a print of your choice! Just leave me a comment here by Wednesday night telling be about a happy moment in your day and I will pick TWO winners. Each will get a print of their choice from Lori's shop HERE.

Thanks, Lori!

And I am excited that my next post will be the first of a few from Kay! And we will even end with a post from Audrey. You will love what they have to share – promise. 🙂

Oh, and I forgot to announce the winner of the Sponge Daubers from earlier this week. The lucky one is Tracey… I will email you.

I am off to pack. If you want peeks and photos from CHA, follow me on Twitter HERE. Bye!

    A happy moment in my day is when I go and wake up my kids with a cheerful “good morning”, and they smile while their eyes are still closed, they stretch, and say “good morning mommy”.

    My happy moment was driving home from dinner with friends listening to our kids non stop laughter – we couldn’t help but start laughing as well! It really is the simple things!!!

  36. MilliD says:

    I had a happy moment in my day when someone complimented my 18-yr-old son. He started a new job a week ago and his new manager said, “I sure love having your son here. He is a great kid with a wonderful, can-do attitude and positive outlook on life.” I think that will keep me on Cloud 9 for awhile!! 🙂
    Have a blast at CHA!!!

  38. Michelle says:

    Have been having a week of uncertainty and anxiety and it’s funny how I went to your page and read “May you Trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be” and “always believe that something wonderful is about to happen”. God speaks to us in so many ways through so many people. Thank you! As for me, every day that I get to spend with my husband and children is a VERY happy day!

  43. cindy says:

    A very happy moment for me yesterday was at grandma’s 90th birthday party and I had taken a nap. When I woke up she took me by the hand and introduced me to everyone that was there. It was so sweet of her to take time out of her party and make it known to these people that I was her grandaughter. I pray to be like her when I’m 90 and make a young lady’s day by making her feel special.

  44. Dana D. says:

    Thanks for the opportunity to win. Safe travels to Chicago!
