I can hardly believe this. Three Hundred Posts?? I really had no idea that I had posted this much until just the other day, I was editing a post and looked up at "295" and thought "Whaaat?" But it's true.
My one year blogiversary is Feb. 11th too!
I want to have a wonderful giveaway! I haven't gotten it all together yet, but will in the next day or so I will add the photos to this post. . . this came faster than I thought because I love posting so much!!
It will be a gathering of goodies that I hope you all will like. Please just leave a comment on this post to be entered into the contest. I will add the photos of the prizes really soon . . .
Thank you all so very much for your kind words, encouragement and for being such sweet friends. Whether you are right here in my home state or clear across to the other side of the world, I've so loved you visiting me!
Blogging has been a blessing to me. In that you have brought out my creativity, increased my confidence in my work and blogging has also brought me some wonderful opportunities that I will forever be grateful for. I've enjoyed meeting each and every one of you, reading your blogs, getting to know you and your families and being inspired by what you may say, create or do.
The friendships that are made in this world of blogging are wonderful. I thank you all sweet friends and look forward to another 300!!
Here are my treasures for you...a sweet bird collage on a small vintage silver tray (created today just for you!), three aged collaged bird tags, an angel charm to hang on a knob or hook and lastly the most recent Romantic Homes magazine.

Yippeeee...YeeeeHawwww....Sheeee-zaaaaammmm....(all this "out loud" celebrating is of course being accompanied by the BEST happy dance you will ever see)...Kind of reminds me of that silly song that sticks in my head for days when I hear it...it's by Gwen Stefanni...I don't really know the name of it...I just no it is silly and has a Woooo-Hoooo and a yeee-haaww...in the chrorus...it's a rather "catchy" tune if I do say so.
Anyhoooooo...I am so pum[ed you are having a give-a-way...I don't care what it is...It could be a dirty feather glued to a dirt clod for all I care...I just know...I WANT IT!! Of course you know how I feel about your creative genius and your most etheral blog...I LOVE IT...!!!
