Thankful Tuesdays

3 Things I'm thankful for:

1. I got this surprise in the mail from Frost's mom (I LOVE surprises). It definitely lifted my spirits and I've appreciate the thoughtfulness and beauty of it. Notice Lyra's constellation she etched in....just perfect.

2. Skytimes had an ATC swap, and I got the Star one she had created! It's beautiful, and reminds me of my sweet Lyra.

3. I have to thank two lovely ladies for their thoughtfulness in passing along an award to me: Jessica at Too Beautiful for Earth and Anne at Harveys World. 

Here are the rules for the award:

   1. Accept the award and post it on your blog with the name of the person who has granted the award and his/her blog link.

2. Pay it forward to 10 other bloggers.

3. Contact those blog owners and let them know they have been chosen.

Here are my top ten in no particular order:

1. Butterflies for Alexandra 
2. Missing Nara 
3. Teddy Bear Tins 
4. The Road Less Travelled 
5. Dear Stevie 
6. There Will Be Rest 
7. Walks with Frost 
8. Lily's Mommy Forever 
9. Tuesday's Hope 
10. Handprint on my Heart

I saw something similar in a different medium, and I'm testing a small version to see if I want to do a large version. I'm not a fan of this one though.

I cut about a billion ATC's so I'd have them on hand when I wanted to work on them. The smaller scale really allows a lot of freedom to try out new styles or ideas. It's not like you're messing up a wall mural or something :) I'm also interested in the moon lately.
