The sweetest little bird ever & some new artwork!

Giveaways are just the best!!! Especially when you win something as precious as this little guy below ~ isn't he ADORABLE???!!!

I won a giveaway from Jackie at Fat Jak Originals and got to pick out what I wanted her to make for me....what fun!

Jackie, he is so sweet, thank you very much for giving me your wonderful artwork....I'll treasure him always ~









I stayed up too late again, playing in the artroom ~ this is what I made before heading to bed. A small drawer assemblage with a sweet bird theme. This one features the most wonderful image that I have on a postcard, which I've scanned and printed. I know you've seen it before in my work. I still need to add a few more embellishments but wanted to show you the progress ~




I hope you have a very happy Thursday!!

xxoo, Dawn

Oh my, I think my little blue bird of happiness needs a friend and I will have to travel over to your link to see if one is available! Love this wee bird!

I really like the autumnal colors of this new assemblage piece. The little birds remind me of those old bouncing ball cartoons, "Let's all sing like the birdies sing, tweet, tweet, tweet-tweet..." So sweet!

I came across a Water Babies book the other day in a flea market but it one that was done by Disney of the old Water Babies cartoon they made (You can view it on YouTube). It is in rough shape but the cover is so cute and so are the graphics in the book. If you would like it I can send it to you, just let me know.
