I would like you to join me on a Magic Carpet Ride around the world.  Come and visit blogs in all corners of this magical world we live in and while you are there leave a comment for a chance to win some Magical gifts.  Just click on the OWOH button in my side bar for a list of all the wonderful blogs to visit and start your magical journey.

I am offering this magical little book that I have made and if you leave a comment for me then you will be in with a chance to win it when I select a winner on February 15th.  It will be a random draw so you have as much chance as evryone else of winning.  I am happy to post anywhere in the world and I also plan on offering at least one more gift (I just have to make it) and who knows maybe even more so pop back again to see what else you might win.

While you are here why not have a look around my blog and see what else goes on in my life and if you have a blog I will be popping by to visit you too.

For now though let's just enjoy this Magical Carpet Ride.

Come along and join in.

Ok now to the book.

the book started it's life as beer mats, but I played with them and this is what I ended up with.

Fortunately I remembered to photograph the inside before I bound the book - so much easier to photograph - and here are the pages.

here's the second giveaway, a canvas I am rather chuffed with.

and the third is this embellished initial B

and for number 4 we have this quote plaque

Photo suprises for 70th

It was Arn's special birthday last week and I had ordered a special (to us) painting.  It is called BESHERT which is Hebrew for perfect match, soul mate, fate, destiny.  It is a very powerful word and we have always said we were each others BESHERT so you can understand what it means to us.  The roots of the tree form the word beshert and the trees combine in a heart.  The English words TO LIFE and LOVE are intwined in the branches on the right and the Hebrew equivalent words grow out of the branches on the left together with 2 wine goblets.  The more you look at the picture the more you see in it.  I have had it mounted into a heavy black frame.

The kids then went for a photo session (dragging a not very willing me along) and had this photo blown up and framed from them

and this one from the littlies

and this one from the two boys

we have had to have a major re-arrange but they are now up on the walls.

Love is in the air.....

....well it stops you thinking about all the snow we have right now. I have just completed my cards for Crafty Ribbons, featuring their heart range and I elected to go for modern ribbons.  Hope you like them.

there is another 'thing' but thats a surprise so I'll upload it later.
