It’s done!
The winners of the greeting card giveaway will be revealed in just a minute. First, I wanted to say thank you to all of my friends and family who have been so supportive of both my writing and painting in the past year. And, a special shout-out to all of my writing and blogging friends who have read, shared, commented, and lifted me up – I appreciate all of you very much. This year has definitely been a year of growth, success, learning opportunities (or failures, but this is a more negative connotation), and opportunity – a year that has been one of my absolute favorites.
Thank you all for this.
Second, I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! Laura Ingalls Wilder said it best when she wrote:
“Our hearts grow tender with childhood memories and love of kindred, and we are better throughout the year for having, in spirit, become a child again at Christmastime.”
I hope you all experience a little bit of that child-like spirit this Christmas.
The Winners
Okay, Okay, I know – enough of the sappy stuff. We’ll get to the drawing for the watercolor greeting cards now. The following two winners are receiving my very first printed packs of greeting cards. The cards are printed on fine art paper using archival ink, so these prints can last for centuries if they are in the right environment.
I hope you enjoy them!
I had my two little elves help me draw two names out of my son’s trusty cowboy hat. So, here we go!
The first little elf drew Marian from Just Muddling Through Life – congratulations, Marian!
And…
…the second elf drew Lady Pamela Rose from There is Always Hope – congratulations, Pamela!
Marian and Pamela, if you could please email me your shipping address at erin@unboundroots.com, I will send your package after the Christmas holiday. 🎄
Thank you to everyone who entered the contest, and Merry Christmas!
Warmly,
Erin
