Just as you thought we were
going to take a little break.....grin.....
Thought I'd do a Shout Out
post and a Quickie Giveaway
while I'm finishing up
the last Fabulous ATC Swap
with Tracey from
Hidden Vintage Studios at DeviantScrap.com
and getting prepped
for the next ATC Swap
that is coming up soon!
First off.....
Had a Great Mail Day today!
All the way from England....
This Fabulous Handmade
Bird Watcher
came from a Great Artist I
came across on Facebook
Jane Ryan OPI (Opiworks)
you can find her here
on Facebook and
here on Etsy and
here on Her Blog!
Being a Birdnut I'm thrilled
to have a piece of Jane's works
and it'll be next to my own
Butterfly Garden Assemblage in
the Art Room.
Thanks Jane!! Love her!!
Then as if the mail day
wasn't cool enough...
Goodies from
Kristin Hubick at Retro
brought in some of my fav goodies
Mr. Tim Holtz's New Tag Stencils
and
Not easy to get yet, so having
bring in a few I immediately grabbed 2 of them! GRIN
These Mini Journals are the same as
Dyan's Fabulous Large Journals
right down to the storage envelope
inside the front cover, ( such a handy
thing for storing stencils and paper bits!)
The Mini Dylusions Journal is
8 3/8" x 5 5/8" a great size for some
quick or detailed journal art!
And the paper inside it! Oh man
it's like silk to work with!
So I got to thinking as I sat drooling
over my new Mini Dylusions Journal
that to have 2 of them right now might
be a bit of overkill, as it's going to take
me some time to fill 1 up with all
the projects on my plate.....
So I'm putting up the 2nd
(the one I didn't drool on......LOL)
as the Prize for a
Quickie Giveaway!
That's right!
Here on
Birdnuts Mixed Media
I'll give this one away!

upcoming swap here on
Birdnuts Mixed Media!
Rumour has it that a certain
(Ms.Fancy Pants) of
could be
involved....grin
I've been playing with some
4 x 6 art cards using some of Nancy's Fabulous Graphics
along with my own, a size that I haven't
played with before with all the ATC
making I've been doing, so to get the
hang of it ...
I love making up Nancy's Girlies
from all of her Fabulous Kits!
They always set the tone...
...even if the tone is a little odd....grin...
As you can see, 4 x 6 is a fun
size to be working with!
Hmm......maybe a 4 x 6 swap? grin....
So that is enough of a tease,
I'm off to pack ATC's and get them
out into the post to you....in the
meantime,

SO generous of you to give up one of the journals - and not even the one already pre-drooled!
How fun! I drool every time I see the Dylusions stuff. I have a few of the sprays and I'm trying my best to be a good girl and not buy all the stencils. I'm a stencil freak. But a journal...now that couldn't do any harm could it?! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Signed up to be a follower and would love to get my hands on one of those mini dylusions journals. And, by the way, happy birthday, Oliver.
I am officially signed up for you blog! I have been reading it but now it is official ♥
I would love to have the journal Drool or not! But maybe Oliver Howard's!
I see another Jackie so I will sign off as Jackie QH!
Oh yes looking forward to the next swap!!
Awesome give-away! I have tried some art journaling and really want to do some more. Can't wait for the next swap!

I haven't used one of these journals yet...key word is "yet"! lol I'll be recovering from surgery on a tendon of my right 5th finger, so this mini size would be perfect. One of these days (have had a rough summer and this is 2nd surgery since last month) I plan on joining one of your ATC swaps. Have a great day. Love your blog.
I thought I had already signed up to follow your blog, but I hadn't. Sorry about that, I have now rectified that terrible error. :) LOVE the photo of you feeding the birds & of course, the pic of Oliver Howard, looking VERY cool. Gorgeous ATCs.
