  8. Omgosh!!! Thank you, thank you OUAS! It's an honor and a privilege to be featured here. Congratualtions to the fabulous featured artist and to those who entered the challenge who continue to inspire me with their beautiful and heartfelt creations. And, I'd like to shout out to my friend Eila, who left a comment on my blog that said that if my page was not featured, she would eat oatmeal every day for a week. LOL. She won't be eating any oatmeal this week. :)

Thank you so very much...& I agree with Joyce...the inspiration comes from within the challenge itself by seeing so many other fabulous interpretations of the sketch & the theme itself.
