Hello there!  How are you all doing?  Hope everyone is very well!  Do you know we reached a almost a 100 degree temperatures a couple of days here in town?  YUCK!  So gross!  Finally today it looks like it's going to storm and bring in some cooler air .. I hope.  :)

Well, it's time for another new challenge over at Lili's Little Fairies!  This week we have a beautiful sketch by our Jacque and we're sponsored by the wonderful & fabulous Nitwit Collections!!!

Oh and here's some roses I picked once again from our backyard .. I love bringing them into our home.  The white one smells soOoOo wonderful .. the rose bush is called "Pope John Paul II".  The peach one is "Nancy Reagan" and we have a few purple bushes, but this one in this picking is "Sterling Silver" and "Enchanted Evening".  Such pretty names huh?!  hehe!

A Special Gift

Hey there!  Hope you're all doing very well!  It's getting warmer and warmer here in town, and I'm wishing that a cold front would come and give us another treat again before the 110 degree temps start setting in.  I enjoy the chilly weather rather than the intense heat!  hehe!

Okay, so it's time for another Lili's Little Fairies challenge and this week it is "Diamonds and Pearls".  So very pretty right?!  I enjoyed this as well!

For You

Hello there!  Hope you are all doing very well!  It's time once again for a new Lili's Little Fairies Challenge .. this week it is "Transport".  Yes .. "Transport".  I know it's self explanatory, now that I REALIZE what it is .. lol!  I swear the Lili Girls must've thought I was nuts when I asked, "What do you mean by transport?"  OMG ... haha!!!  But I asked if fairy wings would be considered as transport .. and luckily yes yes yes it is!  haha!

So here's my little fairy with her transporting wings ... (smile):

I tried shading her dress a lot darker black than I normally do and I gained that inspiration from my dear friend Dena!  I love her work!  And although my colouring is no where near her scope of work ... I enjoyed trying this!  Thank you Dena!!!

Gosh I thank my hubby for having such a great green thumb!  :)

Thanks so much for visiting me .. I love it when you do!  And I'll see ya again soon!
