Birthday Bliss!!!



I got a sweet gift for my birthday! My fellow kindred spirit Paulette of http://beedeebabee.blogspot.com/ surprised me with a box of the sweetest treats when I arrived home from my road trip. I tend to stray from reminding anyone that my birthday is coming up, but she remembered. She is simply one of a kind, just like her artistic creations.



Besides her loving birthday card and yummy chocolates, she also created a beautiful rose pin. The shiny beaded detail is spectacular and the stitching is perfectly done as usual. Her art takes my breathe away all the time!



I just love it Paulette! I will treasure it always! Thank you so much! :D

You can find more goodies from Paulette at her Etsy shop here.



And for making my birthday extra special Paulette, I'm passing this award to you. I was given the "Kindred Spirit Award" from Mere of http://thevictorianlady.blogspot.com/ a while back after she saw my Anne of Green Gables paintings. And since of course those paintings are with you, and you are in fact now a blogger (YAY!), I can finally give this award to you, my fellow kindred girl! You deserve it! So here you go and please pass it on to whomever you wish. I believe Mere did it that way when she created it. Thanks again for being you! :)



Thank you Sascalia of http://sascalia.blogspot.com/ for passing the "Most Wonderful Favorite Award"! I adore Sascalia's creations. Her collages and sweet girlies are fabulous!



Thank you Queen Gourdie aka Linda of http://thegourdqueen.blogspot.com/ for creating and passing on the "Gourdqueens Scream Award"! Gourdie is the Queen mama for the AHQU (Artistic Halloween Queens Unite) ebay group that I am a proud member of. This lady is one creative artist! She turns regular gourds into amazing works of art! You gotta check her work out!



I celebrated my birthday with a road trip. It was such a treat to get away for awhile and soar on the open road. Like I mentioned before, I grew up on road trips and I just love them.



I even got the chance to sketch and play in my art journal while hubby was driving. Have you ever done that? I don't recommend it...I got the biggest headache right after. It was worth it though. So since I was in a moving vehicle, I only used colored pencils and oil pastels.



A BIG BIG BIG Thanks to all who peppered me with sweet comments while I was away! You guys *R*O*C*K*!!!

Hugs,
Lisa :)

Blog Love



Thank you so much Maria-Therese of http://afiori.blogspot.com/! I recently won her sweet Hollywood Celebration Giveaway. Some of her fabulous photographs, collages, & paintings are going to be in a movie. Yay! To celebrate, she hosted a lovely giveaway.

I was lucky to win a mixed paper soft cover notebook with a butterfly photograph taken by her and also a 5x5 print of her pink orchid photograph as well. I love them. I can't wait to use the notebook and to get her photo framed. Thanks again Maria-Therese!

You can find more similar goodies in her Etsy shop.



Thank you Micki of http://thearthermit.blogspot.com/ for passing on the love with the "Byrum Spiritual Art Award"! Micki is currently hosting a couple of nice giveaways too. Don't forget to check it out! Her art creations and blog are fabulous!



Thank you Anne of http://gaalcreative.blogspot.com/ for passing on the "I Love Your Blog Dahling" Award! Anne creates fantastic cards and generously shares the steps & products she uses plus so much more. She also takes lovely photographs.



And finally...I'm going on a ROAD TRIP! Yay! I'm leaving the San Francisco Bay Area behind for just a few days and soaring out on the open road. I grew up on road trips and they are always something I look forward to. Be back soon! :)



Many, many thanks again to everyone for all your warm emails and sweet as can be comments! I really appreciate every single one of them!

Big Hugs,
Lisa :)

The Music Within



We all have an inner song yearning to be heard.



The song of your soul embraces the life you live.



The person you are is the strength that you hold.



Your song is strong & waiting to soar,



Listen and free...



The Music Within.
