In just over a weeks time (16th) I will draw two names at random from the comments box and I will share these out between the winners.....
There are Christmas brads and stamps, paperclay angels (painted and unpainted), a woodblock painting, two small Artchix shrines, two paperclay icons and some angel decorations.
There are Christmas brads and stamps, paperclay angels (painted and unpainted), a woodblock painting, two small Artchix shrines, two paperclay icons and some angel decorations.
I will paint another small woodblock to make it fair - plus there will be a few other surprises.
But there is a small catch!
I love quotes and phrases...especially ones about angels.
I like the phrase Rosie chose for her chunky ATC here.....'Angels in the Architecture'.
My own favourite is .........'Leave room in your garden for angels to dance'.
I'd like you to leave me your favourite angel quote or phrase, please, in the comment box (you can make one up if you like).
Then I'll aim to post them all on my blog.
I've been playing with paperclay and Das this week (as you may have noticed).
I made 2 icons....
......and some tree decorations......Hope I can keep going for another 12,000.....
Love Linda xx

“Never drive faster than your guardian angel can fly”
Here is the Michelangelo quote:
“I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.”
Here's to many more wonderful posts full of your creativity and inspiration! oxo
I LOVE visiting your blog.
It's no wonder you've had so many hits.
What a great idea to collect quotes too!
Here's mine - I find this quite moving.
I saw the angel in the marble and I just chiselled until I set him free. (Michelangelo)
Oops! Seems we were both inspired by the same quote - so here's another:
I believe friends are quiet angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly.
Hi Linda, what a wonderful give-away.
I love the pieces you have been creating with the paper clay, those hearts are gorgeous!
"Angels can fly because they take themselves lightly" is my most favourite Angel quote ... it reminds me not to take everything so seriously!
Wow Linda you have been busy and beautifully so. Such wonderful things you make with paperclay... love them all :D
Amazing blog candy too and I just have to enter... I would sooooo love one of your stunning pieces of art!!
I don't know if this is really a quote but it rings around in my head sometimes...

Hi Linda,
It is no surprise to me you have soo many visitors, we keep coming back to see you grow and boy have you grown in such a short time.
thanx for sharing it all with us.
The following is not so much a quote however I do believe it... I have watched my children and my grandchildren do the same..
Children often have imaginary playmates. I suspect that half of them are really their guardian angels. ~Quoted in The Angels' Little Instruction Book by Eileen Elias Freeman, 1994
My children and my g/children even had names for them.
The stories they told were amazing... things the youngest DGD could not possibly know we found out later to be true.
we all have Gaurdian angels if we listen hard enough.

My favourite quote would be :
"Angels have no philosophy but love."
~Adeline Cullen Ray
I feel that there is an angel inside me whom I am constantly shocking. ~Jean Cocteau
Love your blog! Above is my contribution to your quote garden!! hugs Cathee S.(not quite and angel most days!)
I love your blog; I always find something to inspire me and make me smile.
I don't have an angel quote, so I'm going to use a favorite Mark Twain one that I have kept on me over the years for when I happen to feel a little apprehensive and it is very true:
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover"
Beautiful & inspirational work as always Linda...
"When babies look beyond you and giggle, maybe they're seeing angels" ~Quoted in The Angels' Little Instruction Book by Eileen Elias Freeman
Hugs Chrissy x
Wow wow! I love playing with paper clay, just haven't done much of it this year yet. Looks like you're going to town on your creations! They're just beautiful :)
"Every time a bell rings, an angel gets his wings"
Well I can't think of a single angel quotation except something a bit too intense from Paradise Lost, but I just thought I'd say congratulations anyway!
"Anyone can be an angel." I adore your site, and all of your projects truly inspire me. Thanks for sharing!
Mae West said, "I'm no angel, but I've spread my wings a bit".
I love your work. So glad I discovered your blog.

From the wonderufl 1953 song "Angel Eyes"
"Try to think that love´s not around
But it´s uncomfortably near
My old heart ain´t gaining no ground
Because my angel eyes ain´t here..."
I don't know any angel quotes off the top of my head, but I found one that I just LOVE...
If one looks closely enough, one can see angels in every piece of art. ~Adeline Cullen Ray
Thanks for always leaving such nice comments on my blog...
Hi Linda,
Congratulations on your 13,000+ visitors. It is no surprise though as your blog is full of beautiful work and amazing inspiration. I doubt it will be too long before you reach the 100,000 mark!
My favourite quote is:
If we were all like angels, the world would be a heavenly place.

Thank you so much sweet Linda for the inspirations and challenges of both of your blogs!! :c)
When we were young kids, my Mum use to use this expression quite often...If you look closely enough, you can see an angel in every single person.

WOW
Thanks for the chance
quote John Lennon
I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?”

These are fantastic - your whole blog is fantastic! I'm probably too late, but I just found you today. I made a piece for Wednesday Stamper a couple weeks ago that uses a portion of a Maya Angelou poem called Touched by an Angel. It's kinda long to put in a comment (that's already long!), but you can see it here if you'd like:

"Angels are your best friends in disguise"
Thanks for the chance to win your goodies.
