MAKES MY HEART SMILE AWARD

We are never too old to get excited when we are surprised by the kindness and caring of others.
Carolyn (Playing in the Sandbox) and Lyn (Trash to Treasure Art) have nominated me to receive this award and in turn I am to select 10 blogs, one each day, of my blog favorites.

Do you realize how difficult this can be? Here is how it works:
1. The winner of the Award places the logo on her blog. (The easy part) d
2. She makes a link to the person who sent the award to her. (Mastered this one, too.)
3. She nominates 10 blogs (one each day). (This is where it gets difficult so not necessarily in order of my favorites, I'll do my best.)
4. She links to these ten blogs.
5. She leaves a message on the blog of the nominees.

For Day 1 I nominate Elizabeth (Last Door Down the Hall) as I so enjoy visiting Elizabeth's blog. She is one busy lady and a beautiful mixed media artist. Visit her blog and you will find such a wonderful variety of interesting eye candy. Everything from gorgeous photos that she has taken, excellent recipes, gorgeous freebies, and beautiful artwork. So, kudos to you, Elizabeth, you are very deserving of this wonderful award as visiting your blog makes my heart smile!

Day 2 is here and I have a very special lady that I would love to pay tribute to....Tonya Ashe at Collage Artistry . Tonya is a true artist in every sense of the word. Her work is fabulous and you must go to her blog to appreciate all the beautiful artwork presented...a fabulous variety and extremely inspiring. She has gifted collage sheets of her own creation and I have so enjoyed working with them. Be sure to pay her a visit. You will be very pleased.
