I'm a BIG FAN of Stacey Hsu and her amazing creations at Original Sock Dogs.  Her work is beautiful and unique, and 10% of every purchase is donated to the Humane Society of Greater Kansas City.  So, so cool!

Stacey created the custom made Baltic sock dog for Little Dog Lost -- Look how great he looks!

I know!  Adorable, right? Now you have a chance to win one of her one of a kind creations.  Run to her blog and leave a comment to win!

"I love you all year round" Book Celebration

The very talented Alicia Padrón sponsored this wonderful celebration for her recent published book, "I love you all year round."  In order to participate you had to send her a note,  a photograph, or an illustration answering the question: Who or what do you love all year round? A winner would be randomly selected to win a signed copy of her beautiful pop-up book.

I couldn't resist and entered with this illustration, showing something I love to do all year around: hugging my dog!  And guess what? I was selected as the winner (you just have to see how it was done!)

Anyway, I can't wait to get my signed copy! And by they way, have you hugged your pet lately? :-)
