This was given to me by the very talented Chrissy over at Chrissy Maries Card Craft. If you haven’t already visited Chrissy’s blog, please take a look. I guarantee you’ll enjoy her beautiful handmade greeting cards, paintings and drawings. She is a treasure. Thank you, Chrissy!
And many thanks to Vanilla over at VanillaSeven for the Triple Awards. Wow—three awards in one! Please stop by and take a look at Vanilla’s beautiful photography—she admits she is obsessed with art and graphic design! Thanks, VanillaSeven.
Also, I’d like to thank Adam and staff over at Blogtrepreneur.com for including me in their 100 Must Read Blogs…By Women!. Yeah, I know! I couldn’t believe it either and I am so humbled to share space with such a talented bunch. Adam, are you sure you all didn’t goof over there?! Seriously, please give the list a look—you’ll see some old friends and make some new. While you’re there browse the other articles for plenty of great blogging advice.
So, the awards come with those icky rules about passing it on to so many people and so on, but I think that it’s more fun if you don’t have to work for it, so I’m listing seven blogs that I really like and invite them to come take (or not…it’s okay…not everybody likes this stuff!) whichever award they like and do with it as they choose. Here are a few of the more recent blogs that I’ve been following and really like!
Emerald Eyes
Pictorialsoul
Svasti: A Journey from Assault to Wholeness
The Blackbus
The Dreaming Tree
The Half-Life of Linoleum
The Plastic Mancunian’s Eye








Congrats on the award & being included in that 100 must read blog list! Thanks kindly for passing the award on, too. You’re too kind, as always! :) Chrissy’s really cool, too. I LOVE her cards!
Lana´s last blog post..Your Opinion Needed + New Birds!
Wow, Holly, thanks! Very kind of you… I kinda have a mutant attitude towards these things. Sorta, don’t want to offend the people offering (so I have a page on my blog where I host such things), but also get a bit exhausted thinking of blogs I haven’t given them to. Stopped doing so after my second or third one I think! Then, if I feel so inclined I’ll give one out as and when… :)

Thanks, Lana, and you’re very welcome! I’ve always liked your blog—so much beautiful art and nature photography in one place! And yes, Chrissy’s work is amazing!
You’re welcome, Svasti! That is totally cool and I understand where you’re comin’ from. The process can be exhausting and I think that takes the “warm fuzzy” out of it. Just know I think you’ve got a great blog! :o)
Hi Holly,
Sorry I’m so late in getting back to you. Thanks so much for the award of my choice, it’s my first! And congrats on getting in the top 100, that’s awesome.

Congratulations Holly, you’re getting some recognition there! You are a top 100 women’s blogger – cool!
Bird´s last blog post..The Earth Is Burning

Many thanks, Bird, although I’m still convinced that somebody over there fat-fingered the keyboard! :o) Am very grateful to Blogtrepreneur, though. On second thought, I’m sure Lucy had a lot to do with it…
