  2. It was a little past mid-November when I excitedly shuffled my daughter, Puppet, in front of the computer screen to introduce her to the delightful blog I’ve been following (yours!) and to show her your wonderful artistry. "You must loooove the little birdies to give them THIS to perch on," read the caption under the image of the “Little Birdie” journal featured in that particular day’s entry (http://elviestudio.blogspot.com/2009/11/little-birdie.html). Puppet must have seen the longing in my eyes because, lo and behold, on Christmas morning, I unwrapped the best present ever: the “Little Birdie” journal created by you that she had secretly ordered! Oh happy, happy Christmas-full-of-love and surprises! Thank you so very much for the lovely artwork you share (and, if you’re reading this, thank you, Puppet, too!)

    P.S. Belated CONGRATULATIONS! to the love birds on their special day!

  10. I've really enjoyed reading your blog the past several months -- glad I came across it.

    Guess one of my resolutions should be to get more into Etsy this year. I do not yet understand this voting thing. I've got to get out from under my rock.
