And the winner is.........

....

All the names went into my wide brimmed sun hat yesterday, and a name was duly drawn. Congratulations go out to LittleLovelies, the lucky winner of my April Pay-It-Forward Free Art Giveaway.

Nadine of LittleLovelies chose "Build Me Up Buttercup" as her favourite picture in my Etsy shop and so I am glad to make her wish come true. She can now look forward to receiving her artwork, usually priced $30 in my online shop, hand printed by me at Green Island Studios on beautiful fine art watercolour paper.

I look forward to hearing how Nadine plans to continue to pay-it-forward herself. And as I have enjoyed being part of this pay-it-forward thing so much, I think I will do another one soon. It seems like a good idea to just start generating pay-it-forwards for the pure pleasure of it, sending them out round the planet bringing happiness and good cheer, and more importantly, to encourage others to get involved in paying good fortune forward wherever they can.

Congratulations, Nadine! That is my favourite, too! Guess I will have to save my pennies so I can buy one!

Thank you Jo, for having this giveaway, and promoting the idea of paying it forward. I'm planning on having one myself very soon!

Wow! I am sooooo happy! I really can't believe it! I just adore this print and will find the perfect place for it in my studio to remind me to always pay it forward... and while were on the subject - I think I will donate some material and notions to the textiles and art department at the school where my husband teaches & I will also do another giveaway on my blog in a couple weeks time.

I really am so thankful to Jo for this lovely giveaway!
