Giveaway!!!

I was going to do a give away on my 100th post and it simply got away from me. Between Easter, planning a baby shower for a wonderful couple, and work (painting), I guess I let it slip by.
To sign up for this give away leave me a comment with your idea for a title for my new painting that's in progress. (Photo in progress below) Many of you have seen my paintings before and know what kind of titles I use. Such as:
The Village of Stoney Point
Pleasant Point Village
Daffodil Lane
Heritage Grove
Candy Cane Cove
You get the idea. You can be as creative as you want. Feel free to stray from this type of title if you have a better idea. I will post another picture as I complete the painting. But, you don't have to wait until the painting is finished if a title should pop into your head. The most creative title wins!
The prize is a set of handmade, signed, blank notecards. You will be able to go to my Etsy shop and pick four different blank cards, your choice. After the winner makes their choice, they can email me with their selection. I will notify the winner on Friday and will leave a comment on Friday's post. I will be listing this painting on Sunday evening and the winning title will be on the listing. Good luck!

  1. Hmmmmm......I'm not to good at this....but the first thing that crossed my mind was that it looks like a place that always have some wind blowing. How about "Breezy Acres""? Have you used that one before?

    Have the best of days.........Rosie

  26. What a lovely picture this is going to be. It looks like a plentyful place, so how about the Cove of Plenty - or the Isle of Plenty depending on where you are looking from.
