home for a day...



the studio 490 "kits for art" winner...


and the details on the Blossom Bucket sponsored contest...

but first...
THANKS so much to Cheryl & Rick and all the students who spent the weekend getting inky at Rocky Mountain Memories
in Estes Park, Colorado...
it was fun...
VERY FUN!

the Ranger technique class was very inspiring for all who attended...
I got the idea that you learned lots & I SAW that you did...

MAKE ART!

we had students from all over Colorado plus
 FLORIDA & ILLINOIS! 
wow...
 THANKS EVERYONE!

If you ever vacation there, or are within driving distance...
Rocky Mountain Memories is a definite MUST SEE store...
for a great selection of products...
great samples & cool vintage decor...

here's a Rocky Mountain memory for me...
Stacy was driving me to the store Saturday morning, when some elk crossed the road right in front of us...

they were not frightened by us pulling right up to them, for a photo shoot...

they are EVERYWHERE & very cool critters...




and speaking of cool...
if you ever vacation in Estes Park, I recommend Solitude Cabins...

I *thought* I was a queen...
talk about lovely & beautiful environment...

Cheryl housed me in a 2 bedroom *cabin*??
which was really like a house...

here's the full kitchen...


and the family room with an awesome fireplace...



and looking down from the balcony...

as you can see...
the decor is so cool...
and
100% CLEAN!

Solitude Cabins it THE place to stay...
I DID & I LOVED it...


now about the winner of my brand new "kits for art #3"...
