Celebrations! Celebrating Life! Why? Why Not?

Have you ever sent yourself a birthday card?  Nor have I.    Thanks to all of you for the lovely cards and birthday wishes.  Three glorious days of celebrating zoomed by.  But, I'm still celebrating.  For instance, I've received so many lovely comments for the April give-a-way that I'm celebrating by giving away one of my Jared Collection dressed mannequin in the picture to the right.  Name will be drawn from hat at 9:00pm PST May 31, 2012.  Announced first week of June.  Start now!  Get your name in the hat for this gorgeous dress.  Just follow my blog and leave an inspirational comment for this post only for a chance to win.  If you are already following, just leave a comment!  Easy! 

I celebrate because my tutorial for the Bridal Gown was accepted by American Miniaturist magazine's June issue.  You must get your copy!  The tutorial is fun and easy to follow.  Use it to make variations for your doll or mannequins and fill an entire Bridal Shop or Dress shop.  Sneak preview almost finished:
Cannot close without saying thanks to all of you for following my blog and leaving those wonderful comments.  Guess what the June give-a-way will be?  Yes, you guessed it!  A Bridal Gown worthy of pictures in American Miniaturist Magazine. 

Love & Hugs to All

  45. Thank you for letting me know about this give-away too. Please include me in the draw, I'd be overwhelmed if I was fortunate enough to win either of the wonderful gowns. I'm so excited that your tutorial has been published! I have ordered a copy of the magazine - and your gorgeous dresses have inspired me to step out of my comfort zone and start to learn to make simple dresses for some of my dolls! I don't aspire to the levels of your wonderful creations, you have such a talent and your witness for the Lord is also an inspiration. God bless, Sandie (Snippets from my Studio)
