today is halloween......it's a day to be inspired by some goofy fun!
it's a day of candy corn! those little yellow and orange sugar triangles with white tips have been a favorite of mine since i was a kid (and i have all the fillings in my teeth to prove it!)
it's a day of mini pumpkins, extra large pumpkins, and every pumpkin in between.
and once the perfect pumpkin is picked, then the master-carving begins.
it's a day of chocolate, nougat, peanuts, caramel and everything else that tastes great and has lots of calories........all wrapped up in a perfect little package of oooey-goooey mini candy bars. this is another traditional favorite of mine.....not only on halloween, but every day of the year! (my hips tell the story so much better than i ever could.)
and it's especially a day of trick-or-treating! but i must admit,
i've never been a big fan of the tricks....i'm all about the treats!
and today i'd like to treat one of you with a giveaway for a seat in
my online letterLAB class that begins on november 7th!

Oh, the day of Chocolate Feast. That's really what Halloween is, isn't it?! I've love to win your class! Been thinking about signing up anyway! One question: will it be open ended, or will there be an end date? I tend to, um, overload my plate on a regular basis. :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, I would love to get to participate!

ReplyDeleteOh please pick me. In our school system, cursive writing is no longer being taught. I really need to practice mine.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this opportunity!!!
ReplyDeleteMay you receive lots and lots of treats. XOXO, Donna :)
I signed up, I cant wait for it to start, I hope I win!
ReplyDeleteCandy makes me happier than it should. I once worked in a candy store where we were welcome to eat as much as we liked. I gained about twenty pounds in three weeks, and unfortunately, I'm not joking...
ReplyDeleteI'd LOVE to win a spot in your class. I was planning on giving it to myself as a Thanksgiving treat, but this would be a great early treat for the holidays! Either way, I will "see you in class"!
OH sweet sweet friend. I have missed you all these months. I finally have my computer again. And look at you..a class! What lucky timing to visit when you are having a give-away. This looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to peek around at all i've missed this summer.

What a fantastic thing for you to do! Happy Halloween and Happy November 7th!!
ReplyDeleteThat would be amazing. I'd love a seat!

I'd love love love a spot in your class :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I would love to do the Lab. But I live on the other side of the world where time differences are so tough and the availablility of art equipment is just not the same. Ballpoint pens and pencils are almost all that can be found in our town.
ReplyDeleteThis giveaway is so amazing! Your blog always inspires me and I'd love to take your class!
ReplyDeleteI'd love a spot in your class!
ReplyDeleteOh that my cursive handwriting (and even my printing) could look like what you show. I have horrible writing but would love to be able to use it creatively. Thanks for the opportunity to win a class spot. I'm attending whether I win or not cause I'm going right now to purchase the class.
ReplyDeleteIt would be a wonderful treat to win your class!
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Hope you choose me.
ReplyDeleteI'd love a chance to take your class.
ReplyDeleteWow, 138 comments already! Looks like lots of others appreciate your blog as much as I do. I especially like how you have mastered the art of handwriting in your art work and would love to participate in your lab to see if I can improve my own. Years ago, my great aunt gave me a copy of Palmer's Handwriting but I developed my own style instead. Also, in case you haven't heard, some public schools are dropping handwriting lessons due to high-tech gadgets making writing obsolete and I find this shocking and sad. I hope your lab is a great success and thank you for an opportunity to win.
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween!I would love to be a part of your class. Your so inspirational!

ReplyDeleteLori - I love your creative inspirations and especially, the lettering and text that you have on your pages! That is one of the things that hold me back right now with my art journal pages so I'd love to win a spot in your Letter Lab online class so that I would become more confident in my lettering. Thank you for the opportunity of allowing us all to have a chance to win!
ReplyDeleteHi Lori,
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of using my own handwriting to artfully decorate ATC's or journals or cards, etc, and what I've seen on your blog is wonderful and creative. I'm looking forward to taking your class whether I win it or not. Good luck to everyone who signed up.
