Thankyou to the lovely Carole at MADNESS and MESS for this gorgeous award! This is the first award I have been ever given, and I absolutely love Marie Antoinette so it is twice as special!! I apologize to Carole for how long it has taken me to act on her award, but it has been a weird couple of months and I haven't been doing a lot of art or blogging.

Well, I have done the first two parts of these award rules, I will continue with the rest on another post when I get more of a chance to decide on some other blogs to nominate. There are so many other people's blogs that I love and I will have to check that they are happy to accept blog awards as well. So tune back in at a later date to find out who they will be!!

Keep arting everyone! Thanks for sticking with me over my dry patch!!
