Remember the interview I did with Janet Hill this past Fall?

I've been in love with her art ever since laying eyes on it.

So much so,  I decided to include collecting her art into my "promise Me" journey.

So I'm excited to say...

The two absolutely gorgeous and stunning Janet Hill Studio art prints I ordered are here...

"Hot Chocolate" and "Italian Bakery"

I even love how Janet included a little thank you card and a smaller print inside a cellophane sleeve...

attached to the outside of the envelope.

The prints are even MORE gorgeous in real life!

The paper and print quality exceed my expectations...

And the color saturation is stunning!!!

I cannot WAiT to have these framed and hanging in my studio.

Now I've only got one more to order to be able to cross this off my "promise Me" list!!

Speaking of the "promise ME" adventure...

I've got the cutest little gift to send to those of you who declared your participation on the "promise ME" page.

I'll be contacting you for mailing addresses so I can get them out to you!

Have a wonderful Monday everyone!!

KEEPiNG iT REAL

I'm cheating today.

I actually created this post last week and have decided to share it today because my mind is too preoccupied with thoughts of my stepdad to be able to write a different post.

He's been in the hospital since Friday - a heart attack.

He's having a heart cath this morning.

I'm praying stints will be the answer he needs.

His heart is enlarged and only functioning at 10% right now.

Many prayers for him are needed.
