Dorothy, Wake Up! and Kreativ Blogger Award

FIRST, wasn't this a beautiful scene, although a little bit scary for a kiddie (me) at the time.  Poor Dorothy and her companions, asleep in the field of poppies.  The lion is just cracking me up, look at his legs! I was worried that the snow would cover them up and they'd get soooo cold!  But Glinda knew what she was doing, sending the snow.

If you want to join the Celebrate Oz hop, there's still time.  The curtain is pulled back and all will be revealed on July 19th.  Make anything you like:  art, jewelery, food, papergoods, ANYTHING at all that is related to The Wizard of Oz.

Add your blog name to the link list here and leave a comment on her blog post to say you are joining in.  Then just post your creativity to your blog for the July 19 reveal so everyone can visit and enjoy.


A very talented jewelery designer and terrific blog friend gave this award to me,
"Thank you Cynthia!"  That's her blog badge--->

For me, it's surprising and humbling to look at myself through someone else's eyes and then especially to receive an award.

How to go about fulfilling the criteria, hmmmm.  I did a little google search and found that  Hulda created this award several years ago.

Click on her name to see the first ever design look of the award and who she gave the first award to.  She writes in Norwegian, so just click the translate option, unless of course you understand Norwegian.  This  recent post of hers was so appreciated, the photos of her home in refreshing pastel, while many of us were here sweltering in the heat.

I may be breaking the current rules, but I've decided to award to 4 bloggers.  As a further compromise, instead of me giving you 7 random, but well thought out facts about myself, I will answer 7 random, but well thought out questions if you'd like to ask. Don't feel pressured to ask.  Really,  no commitment necessary, casual observers and regular readers alike, enjoy your summer and feel free to ignore...

Here are the 4 bloggers, in random order:

Karen Anne writes as Ireland Brady  and Hummingbelles.   These are two blogs where she shares her delightful and lighthearted paintings and drawings.  She has an amazing talent and a kind, generous heart.
   
Carol writes as  A Creative Harbor.  She shares photos of living by the sea, her Muse Dog, haiku, paintings and more.  Always a delightful surprise to read her blog and see her drawings.

Christine writes as Golden Lilly Crafts  and hails from Down Under.  She has shared gorgeous new art pieces, beautifully hand sewn items, and much more.

Kym writes as Fabric Fascination and also manages Totally Tutorials in addition to her shops and everything at home. 

If  the winners would like to adhere to the rules, here they are:
When you receive this award, there are a few rules:

1. Post a link to the person who awarded you 
2. Share 7 well-thought out random things about yourself
3. Award to 10 other deserving bloggers and let them know.

Carol, Christine, and Kym- Congrats!  (Your embedded comment form won't let me leave a comment.)
Karen Anne, I have left you a comment, Congrats!   
Thanks Cynthia!

I hope you'll take a moment to check out the bloggers if you haven't already read their blogs.
