Gotta Love Beedeebabee!!!



I last posted about "The Gift" painting and here I receive one :)

My dearest Kindred Spirit Paulette aka Beedeebabee of http://beedeebabee.etsy.com gave me such a heartwarming gift. I recently popped over to her sweet Etsy shop to see what was cooking and I found her new bookmark creations. I absolutely had to have one.

You see, Paulette and I have a little Kindred Spirit Book Club going on and I thought it would be the perfect addition to our next book selection. Just like shoes & bags, you can never have enough bookmarks:) We've been friends eversince we first began messaging each other through ebay. Now we email each other all the time. She is super sweet and SOOOO talented. We surely feed off each others creativity. She's the best!

Okay back to my gift, Paulette wouldn't accept my money and refunded it right away. (Me *B*L*U*S*H*I*N*G* with delight) AAAAWWWWWWWHHHHH! But as you see below, she still sent me the bookmark I wanted to purchase plus another one she even personalized. AAAAWWWWWWHHHHHHHH! I know, right?



Sweetly packaged as always!



Full of neat delicate details!



Oh so Charming Treasures I will cherish always!



Below are just a few of her Etsy goodies available. She creates fabulous one of a kind hand stitched pins, tags, ornies, etc. Visit her shop here to find more!



Yummy eye candy!



Always stitched to perfection!



You just Gotta Love Beedeebabee!!! I know I do!



Thanks again Paulette!

Big Kindred Spirit Hugs,
Lisa :D

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Destiny Awaits



Just listed this assemblage painting on ebay.



It's a mixed media piece on 10" X 10" stretched canvas.

I've also hand-stitched a metal charm, a button, ribbons, beads, fibers, & flower appliques directly onto the canvas.

No matter what the future has in store for you, no matter how long it takes for you to get where you want to be...



Your Destiny Awaits!!!
