Next I wanted to share an award I received from two GREAT blogging Friends

Sherrie over at Sherrie Scraps With Passion
and
Diana over at DLArt

 Thanks Ladies!!!!

Here are the rules and guidelines for this award:

~Thank the person who gave you this award. That's common courtesy.

~Include a link to their blog. That's also common courtesy-if you can figure how to do it.

~Next, select up to 16 blogs/bloggers that you've recently discovered or follow regularly.

~Nominate those bloggers for the Versatile Blogger Award-you should include a link to their site for others to see how versatile they really are.

~Finally, tell the person who nominated you "7 things about yourself."

Here are the 7 things about me:

1.I am in love with my new toy~ the Cameo!!

2.I love to read and can sit down and read a whole book in a day :)

3.I have been blogging now for just over a year...never had a blogaversary...maybe iI will plan one :)

4. I love to garden and have my plants started already....now just bring on the warm weather!

5. My favorite color is Blue....but I wear mostly black

6. I love trying new techniques and also love a great tip~ Bring them on!!

7. I love reading all the love I get when I blog~ So happy my work is loved!

I am passing this award on to all my faithful followers~ you know who you are :) 

Without each and every one of you I would not be where I am today in this great world of blogging! You are my inspiration and I consider you such GREAT friends!!

And thanks again to Sherrie!!
