This Month's Prize Package, Prayers and Blessings

Thanks so very much to all of you who have called, sent emails and/or left comments concerning my accident. It is so humbling to know that you have been praying for me and for the young man whose vehicle I hit. Thanks so much for your encouragement and uplifting messages. What wonderful people you are! Know that the Lord is looking on you and smiling.
I really am doing fine, physically. I'm still a little shaken emotionally. To know that I am responsible for damaging someone else's property is difficult; thank God he's unharmed. The knowledge that our worlds can change in a degree of a second is staggering. It's so easy to take things for granted.
Have you noticed that I haven't yet posted any hints or pictures of this month's Giftaway Prize? Well, the wait is over. Hold on - make that partially over. Let's just take a peek at part of the package!
Let's start out with something sweet and feminine, like this:

This little photo frame isn't vintage but it has a vintage look to it. I've seen these spray painted white to make them look less Victorian and more shabby or cottage-chic. This one will arrive at the winner's door as you see it now; I'll leave the choice of whether to paint up to you! ;-)
Look at her face. Doesn't it look like she's searching for something or someone? I hate for her to look lonely. Tell you what: Let's add this vintage cologne spray bottle!
It's in perfect shape and came from an estate where the lady took very good care of her treasures. I know that whichever of you wins it will treasure it as well.
I'll add a couple more items in a few days. God has been very generous to me, saving that other driver and myself from harm. Yes, I will be responsible for his auto damage, but as I indicated previously, it could have been so much worse. I believe that He is calling upon me to be more generous as well, more giving of my time, my possessions and of myself. The winner of this month's Giftaway will be the recipient of a special package, as I believe that whoever's name is pulled will be His Will.
Here's a few more things I've been working on - some cards and tags, and a French Country pillow I finished.
I now leave you with good thoughts and these photos! Until later...
