"Magic" - For Marsha5"x7" Collage
(Click on each picture to see more detail!)
Back in March, my
"Pay-It-Forward" giveaway stated that the winners would receive a lovely "surprise" from me by the end of the year. Even though there was no hint of what the prize would be and no formal pay date announced, the brave entrants posted their comments and hoped for the best! Kudos to them for their bravery and trust! Marsha from
Tumblefish Studio was one of those brave souls!
"Magic" was created for you, Marsha, because everyone could use a little magic in their life. A little bird told me that you enjoy vintage magic goodies, and this collage is filled with vintage magic ephemera (all authentic) from the Library of Congress.

I added a bit of extra magic in this little thrinchie too in the hope that it brings a bit of extra luck! Congratulations, Marsha!
(Huge Hugs!!!)When you have a chance, you must stop by Marsha's blog. It's filled with awesome eye candy art, and the whitticisms and criticisms of every day life. Visiting
TumbleFish Studio is one of the highlights of my day.
(I truly think that Marsha is the "Erma Bombeck" of our little art community!) She's a wonderfully gifted and talented artist and writer, and I don't think you'll be disappointed. Matter of fact, once you've had a taste of
TumbleFish, I think you'll return for more!
Thank for playing and for your patience and understanding, Marsha. But most of all, thank you, thank you for your wonderful friendship and generosity of spirit. I am truly blessed to call you "friend", and I couldn't ask for a better traveling companion on my creative journey.
