My good friend Lisa gave me this award. Lisa is a wonderful artist and soul collage facilitator. Its been wonderful to see her follow her dreams.
Meaning Of Award from the originator:
"What this Friendship Award means:

These blogs are exceedingly charming . These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends .
They are not interested in prize for self- aggrandizement!
Our hope is that when the ribbon of these prizes are cut ,even more friendships are propagated.
Please give more attention to these writers! You are suppose to pass this award on to 8 fellow bloggers, to include the above text in there blog.

This is my 19th page for January and its focus was on using embellishment. I had a difficult time getting any of my pens to work over the paint. That was a little frustrating. I saw this page as a statement about making an occasion whenever you can. To celebrate life. Tomorrow is the inauguration and I am going to a ball in my town. Its at a hotel, I don't think there will be dancing but they will replay the ceremony and have food and such. I do plan to dress up as if I were attending a gala in Washington. Yes pictures will follow. It is a day to celebrate.

Congratulations on the award, Kate.
That's so frustrating when you can't get a pen to write on something...maybe it's that kind of pen? Anyway, I like the way your journal page looks though.
What a cool way to celebrate the inauguration - have a ball ;-)
Thank you, Kate! And congratulations to you as well.
What I admire so much about your blog is how you keep working, trying new things, and don't give up artistically. I've been reading your blog for a long time, and I see so much improvement and growth in your art---it gives me hope! I also admire your sincerity and caring. Thank you again for the award,
Love,
O
