Book Giveaway!
Remember when I blogged about Heather Smith Jones'
gorgeous book 'Water Paper Paint'?
I'm a big fan of Heather's work and her book is absolutely wonderful,
I loved every single page and project.
If you like watercolors like me, I highly recommend it!
I am giving away a copy of the book & a signed archival quality print
of my watercolor piece called "Three Little Birds" featured in the gallery section!
Leave a comment on this post and I'll pick a random lucky winner next Friday morning. I'll announce the winner later that day :)
***Anyone in the whole wide world can participate, I will ship wherever you are!***

I will chose a random winner and announce it later today!
