Happy Valentines day!

Hope you all have a wonderful day full of love and happiness!

My  day is going to suck.. yep..really suck..I woke this morning to a stuffy head, sore throat and stuffy nose and I am not feeling good at all. Seriously just want to just crawl under the covers and suffer through the day in bed..Add that to the fact that I have belly ache after eating far too much of my newly acquired British food stash last night...need to work though..

So, I am plodding along slowly on a fairy for eBay. She is sitting on a toadstool and I contemplated making another wee one to go under the toadstool but now I feel like crud so that's just not gonna happen.

Hoping my supplies arrive today...that always give me a little buzz of inspiration, even if it's just clay or hair. I love buying from Judy of mywycked ways as she ships stuff at lightening fast speed..and I love the freebies she always sends too!! So.. hopefully I will have a little package form Judy this morning.

Also bought some stuff and hair from a website I just found but they haven't even charged my credit card yet which is truly pigging me off. I want my stuff, people! I could of gotten it someplace else, and probably will next time! You just don't mess with an artist who wants her stuff! :)

 Well it seems my little girl has returned from the land of nod, I hear noise coming from her room.. so I need to go be a Mum now before I can be an artist..she is also sick, in fact, that's where I got my stinking cold, from! My daughter, who got it from a snotty nosed kid in Chik-fil-A

 New Blog for me , new website and a Fairy Giveaway competition!

Well ..I decided some time ago to change my studio name from Whispers in the Woods and just use my own name. My Whispers name had a very very deep and special meaning to me..After our little boy was stillborn, the funeral home had planted a tree in the Hoosier National Forest in his memory.. one night I had a dream that I was trying to find his tree, and I heard little whispers..little fairy voices, guiding me to his tree.. and the next day.. I took the name, Whispers in the Woods,  but it's time to move on.. and after almost 10 years, it no longer seemed such a unique name anymore...and I felt lost in a woodland of whispers...

So here I am, with my new blog,..new website www.deborahmccain.com ..same old me and same old work :)

To kick off things with my new website and blog, I am offering a free fairy.. up for grabs on my site. All you have to do is give her a name. Go take a peek at her.. she seems a sad little thing..lol.. but still a wee pretty one. Send me a name for her and on May 1st, I will choose my favorite name..and send the fairy to the winner! Simple as that!

What else is going on with me? Well, I just got back IDEX in Florida. We had a great time, spent time with old friends, made new friend's, had good food and a good time. I really hope IADR goes to IDEX again next year, I think it will be a great opportunity for us and it will be so much fun!

We have a great show running over on IADR this month.. so please stop by and check out our wonderful entries from some amazing artists. Also, we have Vicci Noel in the spotlight this month!

I don't know about you..but I am so tired of winter and snow and really looking forward to Spring. I hate winter really.. it seems the weight I work so hard to loose during the spring and summer, always finds it way back to my hips and bum in the winter.. and sometimes brings a few extra pounds with it too

So I think I might bully my husband into dragging my treadmill out of the garage and get back on that this week, but seriously, am I the only one who finds treadmills boring as hell? I find it so hard to pull myself away from working on a fairy, just to make myself suffer the treadmill. I guess I need to find something fun instead.

So please.. bring on Spring!!! Lets have some sunshine, warm sunny days and bright breezy hearts!!!
