Live & learn!! If you received my post via email this morning, you’ll see that I didn’t make it clear how to enter my giveaway. Ugh! I was doing a test for the entry site {Rafflecopter} and by mistake I published my post before I could work out all the kinks!! So here’s a clearer way {hopefully} to enter the giveaway for the stag with flowers print on my site. Be sure to also enter the big giveaway on The Nesting Place as I outlined below. Again, good luck and send me an email if you have any problems!
It’s a win-win opportunity for you and I’m all giddy!
I was asked to participate in a online giveaway on one of my favorite blog sites, The Nesting Place. They do an annual giveaway {this is their 6th year} where ONE very lucky person wins a ton of fabulous items from very talented vendors and artists. And the items are amazing so I was so honored to be asked!! But I was nervous. I didn’t know what to include and I was in such awe of these artists and this awesome blogger that I was very hesitant to even do anything. I kinda had stage freight. Then I quickly snapped out of it {because I was on a deadline} and got to work. I wanted to do a print that was appropriate for the holidays, given the timing, but that could also be used all year round. So I decided on a stag silhouette and fancied it up with some flowers on the antlers. I really surprised myself and loved how it came out! I am loving working with watercolors these days!!
I thought I would pass this offer on to you so maybe one of my followers could win the super prize from The Nesting Place. Then, I thought… that’s not enough {like $1900 isn’t enough?} and I decided to do my own raffle for your chance to win the same stag watercolor print that I created for The Nesting Place. How ’bout them apples?
So you have 2 chances to win:
ONE: click here to go to The Nesting Place and enter the big, big giveaway for tons of amazing items with a total value of over $1900!!! Win this and your holiday shopping could be done!
TWO: Click this link: a Rafflecopter giveaway to enter my own raffle for your chance to win your own matted {I’ll leave the framing for you to do} watercolor art print. This print is 12×16″, with a matte finished size of 16×20″. This will fit in a standard 16×20″ frame. This prize does not include the frame – way too many options for me to pick for you.
I was very excited to be asked to participate in The Nesting Place giveaway. But another bonus for me was after showing my finished stag print to one of my friends, she hired me to paint her one in a blue & gray color palette – and without the flowers – so she can hang it in her boys room. So I guess this was a win-win for me too!
Good luck on both giveaways – and thank you for all your support!
My favorite holiday decoration would have to the our Christmas tree!!
oh me too, Colette – I would love to do 2 trees this year and keep on for all the kids ornaments and one that I can design really fun!
Found you through the Nester. Love your print, it was one of my most favorite things in the contest. My favorite Christmas ornament is a stocking full of chocolate. 😉
Thank you, Cassandra! I appreciate your comments!! Love the chocolate-filled stocking idea… might just have to copy that.
My favorite holiday decoration is various paper garlands and ornaments that we made from book pages and sheet music and greenery. I love the neutral and natural elements.

Oh I love that idea!! I just made paper flowers from magazine pages and loved how they came out. Go to https://www.grecodesigncompany.com/autumn/embracing-the-f-word-fall/ to see them in my fall home tour post. I found the original tutorial at Jones Design Company – here’s that link: http://jonesdesigncompany.com/create/rolled-magazine-flowers-antler-chalk-art/
Thanks for your comment!
My favorite Christmas Decoration is the tree!!
me too, Mariah!!
Love, love, love my Christmas tree!
that seems to be the consensus! Thanks, Robin!
My favorite Christmas decoration is a tree made of old buttons!
That sounds beautiful! I’ve been collecting old buttons lately but they’re just in a mason far. Maybe that’s a diy project I can try!
Love this print! So want one for my house 🙂
Thanks, Jessica! Good luck!
Just beautiful!!!
Thanks Naomi!
Favorite holiday decoration would probably be my tree with the names of Christ.
By the way, your artwork was my favorite item in Nester’s giveaway! I LOVE it – here’s why. It is the perfect representation of my husband and me!! 🙂 He is the outdoorsy, hunter-type and I am a girly girl! When I saw it, the first thing that came to mind was “It’s “US!” 🙂
Thanks so much, Laura!! What a great way to describe the print – and I love that you guys compliment each other like that! Good luck!
My favorite holiday decorations are picture ornaments I hang on our tree each year – they have captured my babies from birth to now and it’s so fun for them to hang them on the tree! A tradition we all love!
My favorite Christmas decoration is our advent nativity, the kids love putting the little pieces up.
