The October theme was simply "dark". Well, as you all are well aware, "dark" is definitely not my thing and it was extremely difficult to make a work of art that one would consider dark!!! I actually made 2 or 3 and even thought about dropping out, but this very last week, I FINALLY did it!!! (November has a theme of choice so that should be easy to do.)
Wendy, from Bliss Angels was my swap partner this month and the ATC I received from her was beautiful!! It was a Gothic lady and just so gorgeous, I began to think my little sad girl was maybe not what the theme called for. I had an email from her today that she had received it and loved it. Thank goodness!!!! I made a little envelope to hold it and had a devilish looking little character on that, since it is Halloween. I hope I will one day be as talented as Wendy. Her work is awesome! I hope you will drop by her blog and take a look around and also the swap blog. Who know, there just may be an artist out there waiting to happen and these tiny pieces of art could just be your thing!!!

Hello! I just wanted to stop by and say hello! I have enjoyed your blog, especially the one about the Blue Rose. Thank you for sharing such a lovely story. You have a gentle spirit and kind heart! My oldest daughter was perfectly healthy as far as we knew until her ninth year, when she was diagnosed with a brain tumor. She had surgery, but the tumor was inoperable, and she went downhill from there, losing her sight, speech, mobility, and was left with brain damage. It helped so much when people stopped to talk to her. She went to heaven on Oct. 31, 1987, at the age of
13. Thank you for sharing such beautiful stories! I will be following you on GFC and will grab your button. Would be honored if you followed back and grabbed my button too! God bless. See you soon. Regina
