After the Ides of March: CONTEST [Winners Announced!!!!!]

As I gazed out my window just now, the blossoms are starting in the trees, the bird song from the migrating birds filled my ears, and my heart filled with joy as I thought .....................About bloody time

This comp came at the perfect time, for me at least. Winter still had it's miserable grip on us, and I needed something to look forward to.

That the comp finished as the geese and swifts arrived is a kind of poetry.

Many thanks DTOM for hosting as always

And many thanks to all that participated for making this a fun and optimistic thread.

Good luck one and all

Cody

Gosh, Des, I admire you more every day. Been wanting to get into soap making, and I know those soaps are very time consuming to make. So beautiful, and what a wonderful, personalized gift!

Holy crap on a pancake! That was totally NOT expected. There is so much artistic talent displayed by members here, that Iam quite taken by surprise.It was definitely a fun contest and I enjoyed participating and I loved to see the creativity put forth by all those who took the time.It definitely helped bring in the new season, and the birds singing outside my house this morning can back that up.
Des, I sent you a U2U.
