Before I talk about my giveaway--I wanted to show you something else. I really don't even have time to breath right now, but I did take the time to make my peach pie!
Isn't this pretty? And it tastes even better than it looks. I really do not enjoy baking at all, which I'm very grateful for, because I have a MAJOR weakness for anything that is freshly baked. But I must admit--that I make an excellent peach pie, and not too bad of an apple one either! Okay, enough with the modesty--on with my giveaway.
So a couple of months ago, I blogged about these pieces that I made, and I remarked that every time I took my Hippie girl with me, she always went home with someone. Well, of course that's that--I'll never be able to sell her again--so as promised I'm giving her away--
She's on my now favorite type of canvas--a 6 x6 wrapped one with sides that are over 2 inches deep.
Each side is like a whole new surface that you can make art on--I love these!
So I'll do it like last time--you can enter your name 3 times. First, just leave a comment. To put your name in again, just be a follower and make sure to tell me, and the 3rd way that you can enter your name is to mention my giveaway on your blog, and again--make sure that you tell me if you do. I'll be drawing the name next Thursday, Sept. 23--good luck everyone.
BTW--I forgot to mention in my other giveaways that you don't have to have a blog to enter either. You hear that, Susan?--leave a comment and you could win! : )
Oh yeah! I definitely want to be entered in your beautiful giveaway Diane. I already have done the first two and I'll do the third by posting about it on my blog. In fact I'll do that when I leave and come back and tell you it's a done deal. So please enter me and thank you very much.

ReplyDeleteLOVE your hippie girl too! I follow you of course, and tomorrow I will link to this from my blog- and let you know. I would absolutely love to have your work hanging in my studio!

ReplyDeletei put your giveaway in my sidebar, and i'm hoping my name gets picked!
ReplyDeleteYou have been my blogging hero from the beginning (maybe because you were my first non-family follower). You have been my crafting hero because you are always creating great art and you take the time to share not only the finished piece, but also the process. Then, you still have time to do shows and participate in groups and giveaways. Now I see that you also have the time to make pies! You are amazing! I truly am inspired by you and ALL that you do!
ReplyDeleteLove your artwork, and I'm a follower, I'll post this giveaway on my blog.
ReplyDeleteHi Diane, It's a good job I don't live near you or I would have to come and help you eat that pie. It's making my mouth water!
ReplyDeleteOh my, that pie looks delish! It'd go down very nicely right about now, thank you.
ReplyDeleteWould love to be entered into the giveaway too- your hippie girl is fabulous!
