I Love the Pioneer Woman!!

The Pioneer Woman has to be one of my fav. blogs.  She has all these amazing recipes plus, she is a great photographer!  Oh, and she is amazingly funny! 

On the photography part of her blog, she has started to do assignments for her readers to partake in.  You can post your images in her Flickr group and she will then post some of those pictures on her blog.   A few months ago, she posted my Aspen Leaves in the Wind print on her blog for the assigment "Fall Bokah":

That was very exciting to see my print on her blog!

Her latest assignment is Black and White.   So, I entered my Love is a Beautiful Word print.  I woke up this morning to see it on her blog!!!   Its down towards the bottm of todays entry. 

This has been a wonderful Firday so far!!!!

Bookmarks, bookmarks and more bookmarks!!!!

Love is a Beautiful Word Photo Bookmark

I really love the photo bookmarks in my shop.  So much so, I added 11 new ones today....yes ELEVEN!!!  I  added all kinds including the one shown above. I did more flower ones, one of a Ferris wheel, one of some wine corks and so on.

Roses of Plenty Photo Bookmark

The bookmarks are so pretty.  They are mini works of art.  Its a useful mini work of art too!!  :)   They also make a great gift for anyone who likes to read.

Tree Blossoms Photo Bookmark

Corks In a Row Photo Bookmark

Stop on by and check them out.  :)

Other than the bookmarks, nothing else is new around here.  Just finishing up Christmas and wondering how I will wrap my husbands gifts so he has no clue what they are. He is good at guessing his gifts usually!  lol

Espresso Bar

I love coffee.  I really can't seem to get through the day w/o a cup....or two.  I also love Espresso drinks.  My two personal favs are White Chocolate Mocha's and Pumpkin Lattes!!  Yummy!!  I seriously make the pumpkin lattes all year long!!  lol

Through my love of coffee, I have come up with a few photo ideas. I think I am going to start a coffee and tea series....sort of like my wine art series.  The picture above is actually one I took back in Feb! I ran across it again the other day and fell in love with it again.  This is when the creative juices started to flow!  I hope to work on these other ideas soon!

On other notes.  Can you believe 2009 is almost over?!?  This year went by so fast.  I know 2010 will be a big year for me and my family.  My son is growing up faster than I could have ever imagined.  He will be 3 in March.  My daughter will be 5 in July and starts Kindergarten in the fall of 2010!!  How is it possible I will soon have a Kindergartner??  She is 4 going on 14.  LOL  We also hope to take then to Disney World next year as well.  They will have a blast!!  :)  I love seeing life through their eyes!

Falling To Pieces

I love this new print. I love how its a flower (my fav!) and a bit abstract too.   I also used a texture on it (another one of my fav. things) to give it a unique and artistic look!    I took this photo well over a year ago at my In Laws house here in Colorado.  The sun was setting in the background and the wind started to blow and soon after, the dandelion started to fall apart.  I just love how soft and delicate dandelions are!

Free Print Week

This week and through Nov 30th (cyber Monday), I am doing a Buy One Get One Free print sale!!!!  I am very excited about it and I hope others will be too.  :)  Check out my shop for more details. 

I have also added a few new prints as well. The one in this post is one of my new prints.  That was taken this week at the Botanical Gardens.  I got to meet up with a local photographer (who is amazing...here is her shop) who sells on Etsy.  We got to get out of the house, Child free for a little bit!  Very fun.  Even though the Botanical Gardens was pretty bare, we got a few pictures.  Most of mine are more abstract shots. 

On a side note, I hope that everyone has a wonderful week and  hope that those of you who are celebrating Thanksgiving here in the US have a wonderful day!!  I plan to hit up my In-Laws house for a yummy meal!  :)

ACEOs - Mini Prints

I have been asked several times if I offer ACEO's in my shop.  They are basically mini prints and measure 2.5x3.5inches.  They are like fine art trading cards!  You can hang them on your wall or put them in a book or pretty much do anything with them that you want!

I have 9 different ones in my shop right now (one of which is the picture above).  You will have to keep a look out if I add more!  ;)  haha

Aside from the ACEO's nothing too new has been going on.  I have been busy trying to get ready for my Craft fair thats in about  a week and a half.  I might be doing a second one as well on Dec 5th at a School in Denver.
