I Won A Giveaway!...

Perhaps you already know that one of my favorite online artists is Michelle Palmer. She draws the most beautiful images - and frequently draws acorns, which I purchase as soon as they're listed.

So when Michelle recently hosted a giveaway on her blog to celebrate 700+ followers and 1500 Etsy sales, I threw my name into the hat and crossed my fingers.
I was over the moon when I saw that I was one of the two lucky names she drew! Both of the Santas were beautiful, but I had my heart set on the one that looked more like a Woodland Santa to me.

When my envelope arrived, I couldn't wait to get back to the house to open it. I did a happy dance all the way up the driveway when I saw that Michelle had sent exactly the Santa I'd hoped for!
She also included a tag that she'd created...I suspect from one of her own hand-carved stamps. Need I mention that the woman is multi-talented?
 
I also love the little bag of buttons that Michelle included. I mean, who doesn't love buttons? (Be honest, now. I know you love 'em, too!)

Thank you, Michelle! I'm proud to be the owner of yet another Palmer masterpiece! I can't wait to make something beautiful with it!
Don't forget that I'm hosting a giveaway, too! Just click on the giveaway button in my left sidebar to go to the giveaway post to enter.

    Congratulations on winning wonderful prizes. That Santa is wonderful. I guess there really IS a good reason to keep snail mail alive and well!
    Have a great weekend. Still raining here.
