Flashback leads to buried treasure.

Have you retraced your blog steps?

I realized in doing so,

that this is one of my favorite posts to date.

What's yours?

What buried treasure lies beneath your blog?

The Pink Artist Drawing 2009: PRIZE WHEEL

It's a Block Party!

Mark those calendars: Our drawing has been extended until Oct 15!

Our art drawing has been extended due to personal matters- as some of you may know I am looking to purchase my first house, it appears I may be moving during the month of September thus making the drawing of names a bit of a challenge. October is breast cancer awareness month afterall, so what better time to DRAW names than in October? Thank you for refreshing those buttons with the *new* updated PINK BUTTON.

..Welcome! You found the right spot,

this is the official post that holds

our runner up prizes for

-The Pink Artist Drawing Part Two:
Art for Breast Cancer Research!

(also known as BLOCK PARTY '09)

Here you will discover a feast for the eyes

& a chance to WIN our block art quilt,

which is being sewn together now to raise funds for

breast cancer research.

Also you will find donated art that has been

generously gifted by special artists

who have teamed up with us

to help raise the MOST DONATIONS

we can for our chosen charity.
