The close up is so cool. Looks like you used pastels on it too? I've been playing with a watercolor of mine that isn't turning out the way I wanted so I tried using colored pencil on it. It's fun to try new things. :~)
Love this new flower!

"What happened to Jenny?"

I'd better clean the house a little (just a little...)
Posted by: Lori on January 20, 2004 09:00 AMThat made me smile so big and so hard it brought tears....

Posted by: Lori on January 20, 2004 03:53 PMThink we should trust Joe with the sausages? ;~)
Isn't there a chat thing (program) we could use? AIM? MSN? Heck I have no clue anymore what people use to chat with.
Posted by: Ann on January 20, 2004 05:26 PMAnn I'm looking into that chat thing right now...
Posted by: Lori on January 20, 2004 06:22 PMHow exciting! I have an excellent recipe for donuts handed down by my Gramma who brought it from Ireland! You all will love them! :D
Purdiful flowers, Lolo, they are all gorgeous, and I want them. You still have my address, right? ;)
Posted by: Leanne on January 20, 2004 06:59 PMAnn, I may have to ask you to be the sausage monitor. I may need to be cut off. =)
-Joe
Posted by: Joe on January 20, 2004 07:11 PMCut off? Ouch. ;~)
Posted by: Ann on January 20, 2004 11:03 PMWouldn't it be easier to invite Lorena Bobbit?
Ok I'm getting ready, I even got all groomed for the party =}
Posted by: erikie parikie on January 21, 2004 02:14 AMWOOT WOOT! Sounds like fun!! I'm sure Harley would have a blast going to her first partay!! She'd taken over the snausages platter fer-sure...along with cake, coca-cola, and finger sandwiches!! lol ;)
I just made a new art studio discussion board, if you Lori, and your groovy pals would like to join in. http://artstudio.proboards18.com
It's kind of a generic looking board, but it's all in good fun for talk and whatnots!
Posted by: jelene on January 21, 2004 03:18 AMWouldn't that be nice? Maybe someday we really *can* arrange a get together... kind of like "blogcon" a couple of years ago in Vegas.
::sigh::
:)
Hey, we're moving right along! Lolo got the invitations out, the food's all lined up; Jolene's contributed a discussion board...
How about a live chat room for this evening? Here you go: http://thetimesink.com/talkinglive/
Enjoy...

Alrighty then, got the frost all scraped off the trees and loaded with dry ice. We can float it in our margaritas huh? I'm even gonna change out of my sweats to look real festive, whoo hoooo!
Party on........
Thank you SO MUCH Dan!!!! Ok People did you catch that Live Chat linkie the best person in the world Dan posted? (Look up there...)
This will be fun...ok, see you all tonight! I'd better brush up on my one finger typing.
