Déjà vu sweet friends!

Do you know what déjà vu means?
It is French for "already seen" and is used to refer to
when a person experiences the feeling that they have seen or
experienced something at an earlier time....

And what am I referring to?
My very first article in Stampington's Somerset Life
has been republished!!!!!
What a true honor to be in their upcoming (July 1st)
Handcrafted 2010 issue!!!!!

I received my free artist's issue a couple of days ago
and have since been able to look through each and every bit of it.
Friends, this is a WONDERFUL issue!!
And I'm not saying it because my pincushions are inside ~
I had to take a few photos to give you a preview.
I think you'll love this one!!!!

My little article ~ and they even used totally different photos from
what they originally used in the Life issue!!!! Neat, huh?

Now, for a little taste of what else is inside:

OK, I'm in LOVE with this bear!!!! And they even include the pattern!

I just had to share this with you!!!




Mitzi of Mitzi's Collectibles has a few wonderful ideas for wallpaper
on her latest post....take a look HERE!



AND

Julie of Junkin Julie is celebrating her 100th Post with a giveaway HERE!





OH, and I JUST realized....I have reached 1400 POSTS!!!!!
Goodness, I'm a blogging FREAK, aren't I??!!
But I've been doing this now for 3 1/2 years so they do add up :)
I think a giveaway is in order, don't you??
And I think tomorrow's post will be the giveaway post.....


Thank you for always coming by...
and for the sweetest comments
on my recent soap box art!!!!
Do you think I should give it away? Hmmmm....

Have an amazing Wednesday precious friends,
hugs and love,
Dawn

What an honor!!

Look what came in the mail today!! I couldn't quite remember exactly what I wrote about blogging but I did remember that it was from the heart, it was about how I feel about the friends I've made here and how you've all inspired me so. It's a beautiful cycle of inspiration we have here in this land of blog!

What an honor it is to be in Artful Blogger magazine!! This issue has so many wonderful blogs featured that I need to visit and explore. Plus, blogging tips, tricks and etiquette... Blogger.com even has an article as well about having a blog ~ I still need to read so much of this issue!

I just had to share my joy with you!!!

This issue will be available at craft stores and book stores around February 1st!

Thank you for always being such sweet friends and cheering me on ~ this would not have happened without YOU!

Wishing you a very happy Tuesday dear friends,

xxoo, Dawn
