~A Walk At Midnight~

Deep into the darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~Edgar Allan Poe, The Raven~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Good evening...gosh it's after 9pm...I'm usually tucked cozily into my favorite chair by now reading or watching television with my husband....he's out there all by himself tonight while I'm in here still working....well, as Mark would say...."Oh well, you'll have that"......he says that all the time....always has..it's actually a really great way to look at things if you think about it. :) He's so laid back..I love it! Anyway, I got behind with my uploads and blog post because of my newsletter. I was determined to get my newsletter sent out BEFORE everything else this time around..usually I end up doing it after everything .....well... I told myself..no more..it's getting sent first..and that's what I DID... I sent it out around 6pm AND within an hour I had sold three of my new offerings!!!!Yeah :)!!!I was so pleased. SO, I got busy sending invoices and such, and that is the reason I'm just now getting to this blog post but oh.......those sales make it all worth it!

Okay...now I'm going to TRY & make the rest of this post fairly short as I'm SO tired. One of the items that sold is the framed print above, "A Walk At Midnight" I just LOVE it. The picture does not do it justice. I'm really loving using these CatchPenny Prints, I sit and browse for hours over the pages in this book......trying to decide which one best fits the idea that has popped into my head. Definitely one of my wiser purchases....although I do seem to be going through an enormous amount of ink in my printer these days but ....."Oh well, you'll have that! :)

This next one I also love...it also has sold. It's called "The Truth"
I have always been drawn to the history of The Salem Witch trials. I have enjoyed reading historic accounts of the day & books that reflect that time period and situation since I was a young girl. I guess I am just taken with the unfathomable insanity of it all. It was a horribly tragic and unnecessary time when madness & suspicions ruled, common sense was washed away by the rains and the truth was tucked neatly away & tightly corked.

~Sold~
These last two items are still available and were actually last minute things I made today.... frantically wracking my brain trying to think of what to list...AS..... I was not able to finish my dear doll as quickly as I had hoped... her paper dress did not come out the color I had wanted so I put her on hold..she'll be done in a day or two and perhaps I'll list her on ebay. Anyway...these last two are listed on Early Work Mercantile.
