Yes, It Is Spring!!!

The butterflies are back!! It's officially spring!! :)
The winter was quite mild, with two short bouts of snow, although it did get bitterly cold for a couple of days/nights both times. But, it's late March, grass is greening up, trees are blooming, and butterflies are back to make it all that much more beautiful! :)

First one of my this spring's flutterbys submitted to SS:

March is marching in

As February faded away, on the last day I got another nice EL on one of the butterflies. It was a short month that felt long due to a long wait for ELs ;)

As March arrived I was waiting for my newest Easter pics to get through review, and they got rejected for infringing my rights... yep, MY rights.
MY bad, of course, since I didn't submit a property release for my hand painted fancy eggs. OK, they are NOT so fancy, but they did take a lot of work.
So, I resubmitted with a release and am now waiting waiting waiting... and hoping hoping hoping they get through and that they sell, too. Of course, *I* think they're really cute, but it doesn't help one ounce unless the buyers think so, too, AND find them usable for their purposes... maybe a few ELs... har har har...
A Girl Must Dream, eh?

Enough of talk, let's get to commercials...
Here's the latest EL butterfly:




Let's have some MORE, now... :D

Friday the 13th!

I've always thought 13 is a lucky number for me... we'll see how that goes today, on Friday the 13th :)
I got some new photos accepted last night - all of them butterflies, in different colors. I had some illustration attempts, too, but they didn't make it. Next time better luck! :D

Here's another photo from my previous batch that I really like - the little Dude is so cute and snuggly looking! Someone should make a Teddy Bee huggable toy like that!
