faerie magic and a giveaway winner

Happy Monday! Hope everyone had a great weekend, and a warm and cozy one for all of you having to deal with snow. We are once again having electrical problems at my house so we were almost completely out of power all weekend. Down to 3 outlets which made lighting, cooking and computering rather interesting. It's being worked on I'm told.

Luckily I was able to draw my WWC magazine winner before we lost power. And the best part was that I had a wee bit of help from the fairies.

First, all the names were written on blue strips of paper.
Everyone who left a comment was included.


A sprinkle of stars to make sure no one was left out!



Remember the magical lantern the fairies left me for my



I keep it in my studio for inspiration. I also discovered that the wonderful light
still works on certain nights. Tonight was one of them!


I thought I could use my lantern to choose the winner's name.



So I opened the little glass door...



...and placed all the names inside.

Fairy lights don't burn as you all know. :)

The door was left closed for a count of 33.


1, 2, 3, 4.....



.... 31, 32, 33!




And the winner is #17...Fran from thebagglady...hooray!!

Fran gets to enjoy my extra copy and be inspired by the creative spaces of some really amazing artists. Congratulations Fran!


Thank you everyone for stopping by and sharing your creative spaces with me. I loved hearing about where you like to scrap, paint, sew, glue and glitter. I'll be back again with my January ATC and details about my one year blog anniversary celebration.

Have a glittery, creative Monday!
