"The reports of my demise are greatly exaggerated"

As Mark Twain once said. 

Sorry to have been gone so long.  My cold took a nasty turn for the worst and just kicked my fanny.  Sinus issues are still running rampant, but overall feeling much better.  Thank you for all the kind inquiries and well wishes. 

I managed to drag myself off my death bed this week, LOL, to  go to Market for a day.  Was fun to see all the new things coming out.  As well, as just at all the fun influences that the "altered art" world has on the industry.  The PaPaYa booth was gorgeous!  All of the wonderful products grouped together make such an impact and it's so hard not to buy them all.  Demdaco had Kelly Rae Roberts and her lovely art prints.  Curly Girl , was fun to see, as I've been a big fan of her artwork for awhile now.  Went through at breakneck speed and saw lots of cool things.  I will have to take pics as goodies come into the shop.

This week has also kept me busy with a little wedding idea/hunting, as another niece plans to marry before the year is out.  As well as some Paper Cowgirl planning.  Head Cowgirl Tina was here for a few days, which gave us a chance to scout some locations and do some leg work for PC.  As soon as we have more tacked down, we will let you know. 

And I have to share with you one of my favorite finds.  Lisa Cook has a most fabulous Etsy shop.  And I had to have her Valeninte kit.  Look at this gorgeous stash of goods!

 
 
So many goodies, all in red, black and maroon. 

Lots of cool trinkets and paper things.

I was absolutely delighted with all of the materials here.

Go check out Lisa at www.lisacook.etsy.com and see some of her fabulous things for yourself!

Feel better soon. My allergies have been killing me for 2 weeks now.

Can't wait until Paper Cowgirl!
I'll start spreading the word.
