Thanks, A giveaway, Goodbye. by guest : Angela Hardison

It has been constant eye candy this week with guest blogger Angela Hardison, don't you agree? I fancy her creativity and it was marvelous to see a showcasing of her goregous work and my ... what a lovely studio she works in. Seesaw Designs = Inspiring. I am amazed at the young talent and am looking forward to seeing more. Thanks Angela for taking the time to share and inspire us with your insights and whoo hoo... thanks for also offering a surprise giveaway! (Read details below).



Thanks again to Rachel for asking me to guest blog - I've loved being here. And thank you readers - I've enjoyed your thoughts & comments. To show my appreciation, I'm giving away something that I haven't even made yet. Here's some hints:

- a letterpress print
- 8x10"
- probably two-color
- design & letterpress by me
- shipped to you around March 15th

It will be good; you want it. (I know it's kind of weird that you don't know what you might win, but surprises are always more fun, right?). Just leave a comment by Wednesday, January 28th at midnight and the winner will be selected randomly!

{No anonymous entries will be counted, please enter only once. }
