Lost Aussie on the loose

One World One Heart Giveaway

In many recent days I have seen lots of blogs posts about this One World, One Heart Blog Event and have decided to jump on the bandwagon.  I also promised a while back to participate in a "Pay It Forward" challenge and have decided to combine the two, though the latter without any strings.

So.... the "Heartfelt" giveaway on THIS blog will be FIVE sets of five, limited edition and signed postcards that you can either mail to anyone YOU love, frame, set your cup of tea on, tack onto the loo wall, or do whatever you choose to with - the choice is yours.

The drawing will be held on Feb 15th and taken from a random pick of comments left on the Lost Aussie blog up until midnight EST USA Feb 14th.
I am happy to ship to winners ALL over the globe free of charge, so feel free to play, no matter where you live!

 

So. leave a comment and get ready to win!

hugs and love to all

Oceans Apart

Well, I am back in the northern half of the world, missing my small men already and wondering how things are going for the start of their new school year. 
I know there are many of you who cannot fathom why I do this with my children, but trust me, it's a hard but well thought out choice and not one that I make lightly! But if you are interested, the clincher was the day my oldest boy started middle school here in the US and had to walk through a metal detector to get to his classroom.... enuff said!

Aside from cleaning up all the dust bunnies that have mysteriously accumulated in my absence and entertaining any one of the five cats in succession on my lap, I am well into catching up on the long list of art projects that are due. 
I have work to send in for a couple of books (yes, I know those darn hush hush things were no-one shows you what they are doing 'cos it's secret ! Ha!).  Some round robin projects, work for the ICE-10 exhibition, a set of postcard swaps for a group I belong to and then just for fun, one that I found on FLICKR for Valentine's day.  I think I may use the mailart I made for today's post for some of those cards.
And....if you have bothered to read this far, I also owe Seth a post for "pay it forward" and just so that I can kill two birds with one stone I will combine that fun little giveaway with the one that Lisa Oceandreamer is running for One World One Heart.

So stay tuned, I will post the details of that tomorrow.  For now it's time for bed "said Zeberdee" ... yawn, yawn, as the jetlag catches hold!  zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

3-2-1

If you know me at all you will "GET" this one!

Worth a Thousand Words

I'll be glad when I can get back to my Studio and start working on all the projects, deadlines and commitments that are piling up.

For now though I am content to take my camera out with me each day to "see" what I can "see"!
Gotta make hay while the Sun shines right?  As from what I gather there is not much sun to be seen on Long Island!

So, .... a selection from the camera crop for today.  Enjoy!
