Animal Wednesday


I received a package in the mail yesterday. I hope the postal service never goes out of business - it's fun to get a package from another country. First there's the stamps from another country that you've never seen before....
Then it was wrapped so prettily in bright paper with a bird stamped design on the card....
and opened to reveal "Bird with Berries" an original work of beautiful art by Caroline Soer, illustrator, artist, and friend to a 3-footed dog. To see more of her art and her life in Malaysia, click here. I'm so happy and proud to own this piece which I won in a give-a-way at her blogsite. I can't wait to get it framed in black or red, either would look beautiful. THANK YOU CAROLINE!

and Happy Animal Wednesday!
