Blog Awards Galore

Today I received not one, but two blog awards from the lovely Kate in the UK ... you simply must visit her blog for plenty of artistic inspiration - http://thekathrynwheel.blogspot.com/.

The first award is "the Renee award and was created by Bella and Ces in honour of their friend Renee. In Bella's own words "this is a brand new award and I have the pleasure and honor of spreading the seed and watching it grow. I hope it finds it's way to those who are like Renee: the acorn, a small package becoming a tall and sturdy oak, giving more acorns, becoming tall and sturdy oaks, giving acorns…” Visit Renee's blog: Circling My Head.

I have passed on the Renee Award onto the following amazing artists that I believe selflessly share their creative talents to help others grow ... just like an Oak Tree:

Kelsey - http://ko-ok.blogspot.com/
Dot - http://dotslifeandart.blogspot.com/
Nic - http://nichohn.blogspot.com/
Jen - http://amarkintime.blogspot.com/
Elizabeth - http://thequeenoftoys.blogspot.com/

The second award is the Friendly Blogger Award and I am to pass this award along to 7 other "Friendly Bloggers". I have chosen the following bloggers because they have either been generous in leaving lovely, friendly comments on my blog in the past ... or ... they are just overall friendly, so here goes:

Kyla - http://kyladeruiter.blogspot.com/
Tammy - http://twodogstudio.blogspot.com/
Eva - http://postscriptvoyages.blogspot.com/
Sam - http://colour-by-numbers-samantha.blogspot.com/
Belynda - http://belynda-leeduffill.blogspot.com/
Tanya - http://tanyastreehouse.blogspot.com/
Sarah - http://sarahwalker1971.blogspot.com/

I've met some wonderful people through blogging and hope that these awards continue to make their way through the blogging community, spreading much joy and good feeling along the way.

Ciao for now,
Diana
