Vote For May Challenge


CONGRATULATION TO ROSALIA SHE IS THE WINNER OF THE MAY CHALLENGE!

Small Footprints

"When I was a kid, my family and I spent summers camping and hiking. We'd hike to the most amazing places and see all kinds of animals. It was a great family activity. On one hike, just as we reached a knoll, we saw a beautiful Elk in full velvet. He was beautiful and proud. On that same hike, we sat near a waterfall. So, I'd like to submit this piece from our Etsy shop, an original piece by my hubby. It reminds me a lot of that waterfall and the day we saw the Elk."



Dianna / Beach

"When I was a child my family would spend a few weeks at a home in Michigan City Indiana. The house was across the street from Lake Michigan. The first thing in the morning I would run down the stairs and across the street to look for shells on the beach. Love the memories."

Sherri Lynn

"Hello...My favorite times as a child were of going to the beach...I so love the ocean....so I am submitting my "Sea Sediment Jasper' Necklace. Made with agates and Abalone Mother of Pearl...thanks so much for this opportunity!!"


Rosalia / Neptune

"My favorite memories of childhood was always the ocean. Going to the beach, playing in the sand. But mostly finding the best seashells I could. I look back on those days and wish I still had some of those wonderful shells. I don't think I appreciated them then as much as I would now."
 
Diane / Snake
"I was always troubled about snakes when I was a child... not sure why,but I would have nightmares about them. So here I am all grown up... Still dont like them, but I do not have nightmares anymore.. LOL"
