A month of give-aways - JUNE, 2011

I promised a give-away for the entire month of June. Sometimes life gets in the way. I fell at work last week and injured my right arm so use of it is limited. Anyway - enough of that .... Here's why the giveaway - I've had a website since 1996, but had my domain name and website since June 2001. So this year is my 10th anniversary!

EDITED: 2012:
Thank you to all who participated. I am removing all posts relating to this, as they don't need to be on my blog. Participants sent me daily emails, and I drew names out of a hat to be fair to all and some days we had duplicates.


The prizes were art related, art, vintage papers, fabric remnants, scrapbooking supplies, craft supplies, ACEO related. Old paper - retro, ephemera, images. Participants had to to tell me 3 things they loved and 3 things hated. I have lots of these things on hand, so the giveaways are things out of my art/crafts cupboard. This helped me choose what I was putting in the packages. All done for fun!

If anyone has any questions regarding this, please let me know.
Thank you.

"Ace of Spades" ACEO watercolor for 2011 ACEO card deck

I signed up to produce an ACEO for the 2011 card deck.
My card was the Ace of Spades.

I couldn't get past my original fascination with this card.

I grew up in the age when we played cowboys and Indians, and there were westerns galore on the TV. To find out that the Ace of Spades has such a shady history with the shooting of Wild Bill Hickok, I never could get out of my mind.

Attending a western re-enactment last year provided some wonderful images, so with a bit of manipulating the pose, etc. This is what I came up with. I did a bit of this under magnification. And I deliberately gave it a very muted color scheme.
