I’m A Weiner So You Could Be A Weiner Too!

Posted in: Artsy-Fartsy Scrapbooking Stuff, Me

Boy did I ever get a treat in the mail today! I was a very lucky winner over at Zazzafooky last month and I got a fook-tastic tumbler and mug AND a little painting from the ever so talented Teddy whose work is currently being fought over by several licensing companies because she’s just so awesome. And I get to call her my friend. This is my second piece of original art from her, so someday, after she’s thoroughly besotted by fame and fortune, I’ll be able to loan mine to the Gugennheim for an obscene amount of money. It’s good to have a plan.

January 2008 316

I decided that this kind of awesome mail day should have a little paying it forward involved and what better time to do a little blog contest of my own than my third anniversary as a blogger? (I admit, I totally missed the actual date, but we’re in the right month, so it counts.)

Therefore, if you would like to be the proud owner of this piece of mini album goodness, just drop me a comment and I’ll use a random number generator to select a winner on the 23rd.

January 2008 317

Good Luck!

    Comment by Kris — January 20, 2008 @ 12:41 am

  57. …and what are the chances that I’d miss out on the possibility of a LEAH original? After all - one day when you’re rich and famous, I could lend it to the Guggenheim for an obscene amount of money!! …or just cherish it by myself - which isn’t exactly bad! ;)
