Day of the Dead Celebrations at Lost Coast Portal to Creativity

Good afternoon everyone.  I'm still living in a motel (hope to have better news on that front soon) so I continue to be unable to create anything.  However, I am being gifted with supplies (thank you all) to help me rebuild my studio and I hope to be back to creating soon.

In the meantime, let me announce the start of the Day of the Dead Celebrations over at the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity.  Three days of Day of the Dead offerings start today and you have until November 18th to link up your project for the chance to win some Lost Coast Designs/Carmen's Veranda bucks!

And, have you seen the new stamp?  It's will be availabe at Lost Coast Designs any minute now!

So head on over to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity and check out all the details!

Until later.....................

"Umbrella Cuties".

Also make sure you leave a message on each blog site you visit and on the last blog there will be a phrase that you will email to us to be entered in our drawing for a wonderful treat pack.  So sit back, relax, take your time and enjoy the hop!

We have FOUR amazing prizes up for grabs:
