Hello Everyone and welcome to The Gathering Nest. I am thrilled to be taking part in this fun event this year and look forward to having you spend some time with me in the Nest browsing around.

I decided to make a collage for my giveaway and I am excited about being able to pass it on to the lucky winner. The collage is on a wrapped canvas, with a painted and textured background and collage elements added. I have called this piece "Fairy Feet".

If you are interested in my collage you must leave a comment to be eligable to win. You must also leave a link back to yourself or an email address so I can contact you if you are the winner. All entries must have a blog to participate in my giveaway as this is a blogging event. My winner will be announced Feb. 15th with all comments cutoff at midnight on Feb. 14th. I will be choosing a winner using the random number generator. One comment per person please, as duplicates will not be entered in the draw.

Sunday Postcard Art - Time

Oh boy, I had so much fun making my time piece for this challenge over at Sunday Postcard Art! I have called my piece Time Gone By. No kidding, where is the time going, the older I get the faster it goes. Although I was warned of this I didn't think it was possible, but it is true. We should never wish time to go any faster as you will soon learn you are wishing for it to slow down.

Happy Sunday everyone!

Thanks for looking and thanks for a great challenge.

Atc's for ColorGroupie partners

Red & Black for February!

Again the scans are terrible. Blah!!!

Aqua & Royal Blue for Jan.

The colors didn't turn out well in the scans.

I know everyone has receive there atc's for Jan. & Feb. in my Color Groupie group so it is safe to post them. I am being cheap and sending two months at a time, instead of one due to the rising cost of postage. It is certainly not getting any cheaper for us swappers.
