Inspiration in My Email Box
Wow, look what I received recently....
Gena Boone-Curtis made this spectacular piece after being inspired by our recent art challenge to make a grid of art! Isn't it amazing?!! I'm so in awe of it! I'm going to send Gena a Chixies By the Sea Collection. : )
I spy so many great ARTchix images in this piece: Seaside Cuties, Classic Nudes, Mermaid Dreams, Royal Post and Fairy Dreams...just to name a few. : )

Speaking of the Chixies By the Sea Collection....look at this awesome little book that Joy Spicer made using the images from this collection. It's so happy and colorful!!

Another happy and colorful piece...check out this delightful collage by Pam Barnes! It features our Hats in Bloom gal coming out of a pot, so cute! Love the Butterfly Charm in her hat! And the birdies from Sweet Tweet look great here. You can also find our Gold Lace Borders, Gold Small Renaissance Borders and Gold Small Flower Borders around the edges. Fabulous!
See you next week! I'll be introducing our new Chixies Art Blast Collection and lots more!
