a sweet bird in the mail

I'm back...after a somewhat relaxing week off from blogging. This week, I'll be concentrating on LizzyB Loves so you'll be seeing a few more items from my portfolio. And, later in the week, I'll keep you posted on my design for the Minted Holiday Design Challenge, so come back often and keep a look-out for the button on the right so you can vote.

A couple of weeks ago I posted the beautiful art of Katie Daisy, and mentioned how I fell in love with her Sweet Bird illustration but was sad that it was no longer for sale. Well, lucky for me she added a few more in her shop and Gabriel bought it for me as a loving gift. I got it in the mail just this Saturday and it was a wonderful surprise which brightened my whole weekend. I immediately bought a frame for it and it now hangs right in front of me on the wall as I sit and work on my computer. A brightly-colored, smile-evoking piece of art; my first!

With much joy and in celebration of my new acquisition, here are a few samples of some of my favorite Katie Daisy pattern designs.

Aren't these colorfully-lovely?!

See you back here tomorrow.
