The Ribboned Crown: February 2010

~ Fragmentary Projects ~

.........hanging over my head. And in my head. And on my table. And in my sketch book. And in emails sent to me from me with an idea. Oh my God. I have my own Ponzi scheme going on- with myself!

~ Keepsake ~

Some people just can't be pleased.

They want a little bit more from you.

Like this chick. Remember her? The Keeper?

I thought she'd be happy with the whole uniform heraldic thing going on.

But nooooooo........

Had to have a crown!

So now.... I hope she's happy.

Keeper. Uh- huh. Right.

I told her, "This is what's going to happen if you KEEP it up!"

~ Giving Her the Boot! ~

Yep. Giving her the boot, or boots, so to speak. And I don't even know her! A bit ill-mannered without a proper introduction, don't you think?

All I know about her is her first name. Ann.

And she lives in Wales.

So...without further ado, "Ann, from Wales? It's nice to meet you. And now, 'I'm givin' ya the boot!!' ". Hmmm....I hope this doesn't cause an international incident. * Update! Ann has a blog!! It's called Love Making Things.

As I was making the boots Saturday and Sunday morning (last minute- big surprise there) I thought I would try to make two more things for the giveaway.

This crown will be parading off to Pearl Avenue. Pearl Avenue Studios, that is. Miss Lisa Bivona!!

And this little hanging porcelain doll and crossed arrows will joyfully be making her way to Joy, of Joy to the Blog!!

A sincere thank you to everyone who participated this year in the One World One Heart Event and entered my giveaway. I barely made it to anyone's giveaway. Bummer. But, I know there will be a chance next year.

And speaking of next year. Lisa, how will you top this affair??

You must be exhausted. I am, and I didn't even do anything except for having a fun day creating!

Thank you Lisa, for again making this the blog occasion of the year!

Now I'm off to make amends with the country of Wales.
