Quoth the Raven, "Thank you, Dear Elaine!"...

I had a surprise package from my dear friend Elaine a few days ago...she is always sending me books and magazines (♥♥), and we had recently talked about a bird's nest she had had for a while, so I thought that's what this unexpected gift was...


WOW! ~ I couldn't believe how sweet this was! We both love ravens/crows...and share a "Sparkly Crow" attraction to certain bling...and now Elaine had gifted me with the most wonderful, amazing Raven plaque...she (my Raven is definitely a girl) was created by Sarah Fitch of Rolling Raven Studio... in my favorite colors and with the motto
"Ars Longa Vita Brevis"...
(I used to have this quote at the end of my e-mails) ~ :)





Thank you again, dear Elaine...you can't imagine how this lovely Raven made my day!



Have a great Wednesday, all!



♥ ♥ ♥
