Spring Time Giveaway...

...especially for one of YOU!  Yes, a lil' late on my giveaway but never fear - I'm still here.  Y'all forgive me for being M-I-A.  Between a new job ;-) (tell ya more 'bout that later), building a new house, getting one house ready to sell, ball practices - well, ya know - life is jus' a bit busy! 

But I did squeeze in some time to paint a sign for somebody special and I hope one of you will like it.  It'll be nice by your back door or maybe on your garden shed.
 I've also got you a cute necklace with a great saying - "DIG IN THE DIRT" - y'all know how I love to do that...
 ...and it has a sweet picture of garden tools on the back...
 ...and last but not least - those WAY COOL metal tags I showed you a couple of posts back.  Tags for - well... - for you to do with whatever you please. 
I simply wanted to share a lil' spring cheer with you.  I hope you'll enjoy tossing your name in for a chance to win - just leave me a comment and of course, follow me on my journey if you'd like.

I'm wishing you all a simply beautiful spring!

Cathy

P.S. - I've got more "house pics" to show you next - we've gone green - well, the house has anyway!

  56. Oh my goodness...please include me in your wonderful giveaway! The sign you painted is gorgeous - I would so buy that if I saw it in a shop! And I love that necklace - those kind of charms are my newest favorite. Here in northern IL, it is still too cold to be playing in the dirt, so I've been "chomping at the bit" to do so. :-)
