Heaven has a new kitty

Oh, my sweet Halloween kitty has gone to frolic amongst the angels - I am so sad - she was such a sweet cat and she was my port in a storm, my friend and companion and I could tell her ANYTHING!! She came one day and graced us with her presence for eight beautiful years - she was always a lady, regal and never rude. I am at a loss for words - I will miss her for a very long time. Goodbye, Momcat, my pretty, quiet girl - you were a true gift from God.

a cowgirl's work is never done.........off I go to finish the chores and then to sleep, but only for a bit......so much going in this mind I am sure I will be bouncing up (so Tigger-like) and starting my Halloween Ball.......till tomorrow, all.......and peace!

I invite you all to a party - look, wine for all, wow, I love this new creative place.......I think my first creation in here shall be a Halloween Ball.......mmmmm, I'm lovin' it!!!

Studio Portrait

I so <3 my studio......I will live in here.....just bring a coffee IV.......

Went out to water and who did I find - Miss Momcat....oh, the life, just look at that pose....my pretty Halloween colored kitty...... the plants are happier now - hard to be too happy when it is 100 plus in the shade but we do what we can!! Guess that is why Momcat looks as she does??? What else to do??? I have spent the summer cleaning and sorting and basically doing all that spring cleaning I can never do in spring when we are so busy at our wholesale plant nursery so now I can get back to what I really love - next to God and family - creating beautiful things from vintage bits and bobs, flotsam and jetsam and general junk. Nearly anything old, antique, dusty, torn, flaky (any resemblance to any person purely coincidental), chippy, peeling, vintage, scrolly, bent, or torn just makes my heart go all a-flutter and brings out my muse, Minx Grimassi Wilde! So back at it - till tomorrow, chickies, have a most lovely evening!!

This is so exciting!!

I am thrilled to finally be blogging!! MANY thanks to all of my helpers and my sweet new friend Stacey who built my GORGEOUS template - go see her at Etsy - she is FABULOUS!!! I hope to meet so many new friends out there, and fellow artists! I will be back in a while - I just wanted to say hi and get my first post on :) - gotta water a few plants and I will be back!!!
