Yep, folks. I'm hosting another Giveaway because I feel like it. And whatever I feel like doing, I just do. (My husband tells me this all the time).
So today I feel like giving something away.
What I'm offering is a print of one of the following photographs. All you have to do is leave a comment telling me which one is your favorite. They're all from my texture folder because well, I'm just into the texture thing lately. And since I do whatever the hell I feel like doing (he says this also) well, that's what I'm a-doin' today.
So, leave a comment and let me know which you prefer. Pimp this Giveaway on your own blog and get an extra vote. Leave me a link to your post so I don't have to go searching for it, k? Contest begins 6 PM Tues., Feb. 24 and ends at 6 PM Thurs., Feb. 26. I'll use the Random Integer device to decide the winner.
Here are the contestants:
Crabapple Bloom
Turkey Point Light 1
Frozen Dogwood Bud
Daisy in Texture
Turkey Point Light 2
Vestry Windows
Queen Anne's Lace
Valentine's Day
Turkey Point Light 3
I like the lighthouse ones, that's why I have three of them. And I do what I want.
Have fun, my friends . . .
Here they are in mini-version, so you don't have to stress your scroll finger.
My favorite (by a squeak) it Vestry Windows, it's just so darned brilliant - literally and figuratively. I've posted a link for your giveaway at my blog: http://ascattering.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteHave a great evening Kate, hubby and George.
number 2 lighthouse is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI like several of them alot but that one speaks...
Crab apple and Tower 2
ReplyDeleteCrab apple and Tower 2
ReplyDeleteNow that you're up to all of these gorgeous textures I don't know which is my favorite. I love all of them, but some of them I think I'll never forget. They're that good! Queen Anne's lace, 'cause it would go in my bedroom. (I always feel greedy when there's a giveaway...)
ReplyDeletetough decision, but I'm going with the daisy, love the colors, lighting and it's my favorite flower
ReplyDeleteI love the light house number 3. I also really like the textured prints. My favorite thing to tell my husband when he ask what I am doing today? "What ever I want to do?" We both laugh.
ReplyDeleteOooh... very tough to decide.
ReplyDeleteI like this one...
.... and oh, that's nice too...
... but then there's that...
GAH.
I am a Libra. Do you know how hard it is for a Libra to make up their mind?
Eeeeny meenie miney moe...
of all of those I like the daisy textured one best. I think.
Yeah.
That one.
Whew, that was tough.
Valentine's Day. Going to pimp right now;)
ReplyDeleteJust one? They really are all well done...love the textures...my top pick because I love the colors and feel like I need summer is the Queen Anne's Lace...my second pick is the third lighthouse...simply beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHere's my link to my post, http://missprissfollies.blogspot.com/2009/02/country-girl-give-away.html I don't think I did this right. It is there I promise.
ReplyDeleteI know I've been saying the daisy is my favorite but for some reason today my favorite is the crabapple.
ReplyDelete-Lori
The Daisy is simply my favorite!
ReplyDeleteOooo! Oooo! Pick me! Pick me! (remember Arnold Horschack from Welcome Back Kotter?)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I am offically leaving a comment to win one of your photos. And I pimped your giveaway on my blog (a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do). Here's my post...
http://georgiarectors.blogspot.com/2009/02/texturize-yourself.html
Thanks, Kate!!!!
I truly can't decide so since I found out you were doing a give-away on Mental P Mama's blog first, I'll say The Valentines photo, and please give it to MPM if I win. (I need to start printing out some of my own photos before I try winning others! Thanks for the nudge.)
ReplyDeleteOOoo, the windows for me please! Love them!

what a sweetheart you are!! I love Turkey Point Light 2
ReplyDeleteI love the Daisy but my favorite is Vestry Windows. The angle,colors and texture make a perfect print.
ReplyDeletehttp://nannysgoodlife.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteTough decision,,but I guess Daisy in Texture is my choice.
I would love to have the crab apple or the first lighthouse photos. You are so kind and generous to sponsor a give away.
ReplyDeleteLove the Crab Apple, Daisy, and Queen Anne's Lace...guess I am a flower child at heart!
ReplyDeleteWithout a doubt...Queen Anne's Lace. This flower (weed) brings back many happy childhood memories.
ReplyDeleteTurkey Point Light 2 (ooooo hard decision-love the vestry windows too)
ReplyDeleteI'm lovin the queen anne's lace!!
ReplyDeleteThey're all beautiful.....the textures are great aren't they? I love messing around with them!
I will post tomorrow for your giveaway and post back here to let you know!
How to choose??? I think Queen Anne Lace is my favorite (and would look good in my newly decorated bedroom!!). Your photos are just brilliant and I love this texturing thing you are doing .
ReplyDeleteI started following your blog based on your pictures and stories about George... Now I follow for all your fun stories and beautiful photography! That said - I LOVE the daisy and the queen anne's lace!
ReplyDeletePS: My little poodle loves those green and pink frisbees, too! :)
i love the vestry windows.
ReplyDeleteSo torn! I love the crabapple blossom but the close second is Turkey Point #2.
ReplyDeleteAlways lovely work, Kate!

I love that pair of birds! And yet, how could I stop there?
ReplyDeleteIt is tough, but I will. Thank you for sharing with us!
I did it. I pimped your blog on my blog and then, you know, it just goes on and on!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the Daisy picture...I just love it!
ReplyDeleteI have always been attracted to lighthouses. The textures that you have used on these pictures makes it really hard to decide. You take the most beautiful pictures. I don't think that I have the patience to do that. The windows picture is beautiful and unique. But I am going to choose lighthouse 1. Thanks for having this contest.
ReplyDeleteAll of your photos are beautiful but I do have to say that I think the Valentine's Day will look very nice in my living room!
ReplyDeleteThis was so hard to choose! Okay - the Queens Anne Lace! (It'll look great in my guestroom at the log cabin!) Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteCrabapple all the way! What a neat giveaway!
ReplyDeleteHey there, Mental Pause Mama sent me. These are all so great, it's hard to choose, but I love the color in Queen Anne's Lace, so that will be my fav.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
ReplyDeleteI love the Queen's Anne's lace. I think the texture of the picture lends itself to the texture (in my mind) of the flower. Oh, and by the way, keep doing whatever it is that you want to do!
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, so hard to pick. I think Queen Anne Lace, no actually Valentine's Day. Yes definitly, oh wait I really like Daisy.
ReplyDeleteOh dear if I win how will I ever pick. Anyway here's my link http://weezeej.blogspot.com/
they are all beautiful.
I was going to pick the crabapple blossoms, until I saw the Vestry Windows. I love that shot, and the colors are cool!
ReplyDeleteI love them all...but Valentine's Day because I adore birds!
ReplyDeleteLove the Queens Anne Lace. Of course I love all your texture photos.
ReplyDeleteOooh, these are awesome. While I love the lighthouse and the little finches, I have to say my favorites are the flowers. All of them. But if I have to choose one, I pick the daisy.
ReplyDeleteThe daisy. The queen anne's lace. The daisy. The queen anne's lace. The daisy. Yeah - the daisy. Though I like the queen anne's lace too...
ReplyDeleteI have 3 favorites!!!! Crabapple, Valentines Day and the daisy. Oh, the choices! Hmmmm, if I had to pick one I would say crabapple I suppose. They all are lovely.
ReplyDeleteMan oh man. This is hard! Umm. Hmm. Okay, I'm down to two now. Which one? which one? Argh, okay, the Valentine's one. No, the daisy one. Yeah, the daisy one. I think.
ReplyDeleteWow, they are all great but I think the daisy in texture is my favorite with the windows coming in next.
ReplyDeletesadly, i don't have a blog..if i did, you would be there! i have looked forward to your update everyday.your words,your photos,so good.
ReplyDelete#1 vestry windows-to beautiful
#2 valentines day..i love birds
#3 daisy..flowers are my life, that photo is perfect.
happy trails

ReplyDeleteOh goodness it's hard to decide. I love both the crabapple and the daisy. Ok, the crabapple matches most of my furnishings and colors, so I'll go with it.
ReplyDeleteThey are all beautiful!!! My favorite is the daisy. My favorite flower and makes me feel better, knowing spring will bring daisy's!!! Thanks for the give a way!! How generous. Come visit my blog sometime and follow me!! I need more...LOL.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless~
Debbie
I lurve the daisy.
ReplyDeleteI just love "Queen Anne's Lace". Although the other are also quite beautiful! Good luck to all the others ;)
ReplyDeleteQueen Anne's Lace is my favorite!! Don't know if I qualify since I've won something from you before, but even if I don't, I love all of these prints!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to everyone
My favorite is the Queen Anne's Lace. If I have a second it would be the Daisy. But I love the QAL.
ReplyDeleteI love Vestry windows. Have since I first saw it. The colors are just so rich. I'm a color girl.
ReplyDeleteThey are all so beautiful!! I love the Daisy in Texture--stunning!! Please include me in your drawing :) Thank you!!

Your photos are absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOooh - lots of entries now! Darn it... the competition is getting stiff around this place. Pretty soon I'll be calling you... you-know-who-with-a-bright-kitchen-and-looks-like-a-model.
ReplyDeleteI digress.
I'm pimpin' ya girlie!!
http://thecolorofhome.blogspot.com/2009/02/pimpin.html
Just keep thinking "Tammy and Daisy Texture" when you draw for names... *grin*
My favorite is Lighthouse #3. I live across the bay from you're area and would love to add another lighthouse to my collection. Love your pictures.
ReplyDeleteTons of comments here!! I like all of them, but my favorite would be the Turkey Point Lighthouse 1!
ReplyDeleteValentines Day is my favoite even though all of them are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteCrab Apple. All of the textured pictures are just beautiful but then all of your picture are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteDon't you love how people come out of the woodwork when you have a giveaway!?
ReplyDeleteI'll start raving about you right now!
Oh, I like Turkey Light 2
As always, it's at
ReplyDeletemiriamlovell.blogspot.com
I hope it's OK that I did a screen shot of one of your images. If it's not, let me know.
All of these are so beautiful. It's hard to pick just one. I really like the texture on the first light house picture. I love the subtle manuscript over the picture.
ReplyDeleteYou had me at "Giveaway." No, that's not true. You really had me at, "And whatever I feel like doing, I just do." That said, my choice is Daisy. Or Queen Anne's Lace. Yes, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm pimping and here for my second chance!
ReplyDeletehttp://kansaschaos.blogspot.com/2009/02/just-call-me-pimp-wowza.html
Get that daisy wrapped up for me, or did I choose Valentines? Decisions, decisions.
Love all of them, but if I had to choose, then Turkey Point 3 would be my choice. It so reminds me of all the lighthouses we saw on our honeymoon down in Oregon.
ReplyDeleteJen
Okay, let's try this again (my link didn't work).
ReplyDeleteWow, what great pictures of the lighthouses. I guess if I was forced to choose, it would have to be Turkey Point Light 1 and then Turkey Point Light 2. Oh, here is a link from my blog: jinxygrrl
or just go here http://jinxygrrl.blogspot.com.
THANK YOU!
I love th Queen Anne's Lace!
ReplyDeleteThey're all beautiful but I'd pick the crabapple bloom if I won.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite definately has to be the Daisey. I love the colours and how the Texture just makes it pop!
ReplyDelete"Daisy in Texture" is my favorite, plus it would look nice in my home.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a blog but read yours everyday, so I hope it's okay that I participate in your contest.
MaryD
Daisy. I must have it. Will trade or sell or bribe. Or pimp.
ReplyDeleteOh Kate I love them all. I guess the daisy would be my choice. So beautiful. I shall be pimping you in a few.
ReplyDeleteOK Kate....I have pimped your giveaway.
ReplyDeletehttp://littleeggfarm.blogspot.com/2009/02/give-away.html
I adore the Daisy... second choice is the Queen Ann's Lace. Either would look fabulous in my office. Simply Fabulous!

ReplyDeleteOk, Kate, I pimped for ya. Gawd never thought that word would come from my mouth. LOL. A pimping I did go, a pimping I did go, hi ho I want that picture so.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
ReplyDeleteI'm a friend of Miriam Lovell, who directed me to your blog. Those shots are gorgeous -- hard to choose which I like best. I think it's a toss-up between the frozen dogwood and the 2nd lighthouse.
ReplyDeleteWow, they are all so lovely. I think I like the Daisy best, but those vestry windows are unusual.
ReplyDeleteMy fav is the daisy in texture...i love daisy's...i am going to use them in my wedding this fall!
ReplyDeleteI believe I like the birds best, but it hard to decide they are all lovely.
ReplyDeleteMy husband tells me the same thing, do you think its "a man thing"?
I really am totally enamored with the crab apple blossom It reminds me of spring and is sooo...fresh and full of new things to come. They are all great!
ReplyDeleteHow gorgeous. Amazing. I love the daisy one.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE all of them but am partial to the Daisy because well, I'm partial to daisies! I'm visiting you from my friend and neighbor, Blue Ridge Gal! Ok, now I've got to go post a linky so I can have a second vote!
ReplyDeleteand here's my linky for entry number 2! http://monroega.blogspot.com/2009/02/signs-of-spring-i.html
ReplyDeleteOh my stars...how do you choose? ALL so beautiful! Mental Pause Mama sent me this way. I love the windows and the queen anne's lace and the crab apples and the birds...holy cow...seriously how do you choose just one...everyone is so talented!!!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the Daisy!
ReplyDelete(I dropped in via Mental P's site:) She told me to tell you she sent me!)
I like Valentines Day.
ReplyDeleteYou are really great with these textures.
My favorite is Turkey Point Light 2. They're all beautiful. I love the effects you've used.
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous! First I thought the Crabapple, until I saw the Queen Anne Lace. Love the delicacy and subdued colors...
ReplyDeleteOhh, the Daisy for first choice! I would give this to my mum, as she loves daisies too. :-)
ReplyDeleteSecond choice would be the Queen Anne's Lace because it reminds me of where I used to live, in Thornhill, Ontario. On the way to work, while stopped at a traffic light, I would look over and see Chicory, Queen Anne's Lace and Bird's Foot Trefoil growing together. The colour combination of the soft blue-mauve, the off-white and the golden-yellow always amazed me and put a smile on my face ... like, how did they know to grow together and look so awesome while doing it?! :-)

I love, love, love the Vestry Windows. So beautiful and dramatic.
ReplyDeleteI'm just loving that first photo of the lighthouse! If I don't win, can I buy? :)
ReplyDeleteThe one of the Dogwood blooms is my favorite. I have to say I love all of them though. Still..flowers pull me in..ok..and birdies..still...no, it's the Dogwoods. :)
ReplyDeleteMona
P.S. ummm...they ARE Dogwoods..aren't they?
Oooohhh... I like the Daisy the best. The framing of the scrolling textures, the blue and brown colors, I love it the best.
ReplyDelete2nd fav would be the windows. :)
Hi Country Girl. This is my first time here. I found you by way of Blue Ridge Gal. I love your work! The Crabapple Blooms are my favorite. I think probably because it is the time of year that I just want to see blooms - any kind of blooms!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love them all. You are quite the artist. My favorite is the frozen dogwood bud.
ReplyDeleteI am assuming my post will provide its own link.
It's official. You've been pimped here at The White House
ReplyDeleteOh, ya. And I really would like the Daisy!
I really love the Queen Anne's Lace!
ReplyDeleteHere's my blog post about the contest:
http://makingsmallthoughtfulblogentries.blogspot.com/2009/02/pimpin-contest.html
I came from MP to vote for Valentine's Day but now I'm in distress. I LOVE Turkey Point 1. I'm a loon for lighthouses. All three or gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteStill hanging with MP so my vote is Valentine's Day
Hi, I was just visiting from Shelley's Cabin and was looking at all the beautiful pictures. Then I noticed the giveaway. I love the vestry window picture. I had also admired the horse pic on scrapbook paper ( well it looked like that anyway). I was wishing I could do that, but read that you used photoshop. I do not have that, so I will just admire yours. (o:
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the Valentine's Day photo. I have twins and that's why it makes me smile :)
ReplyDeleteBut if I win, I'd choose the Daisy photo and gift it to my beautiful blog friend, Vonda of The Little Egg Farm :) (She's the one that sent me here)
Have a beautiful week.
~Lisa
ps
I like your Spunky attitude. :)
I love the Turkey Point Lighthouse pictures. My fav is #1. Thanks for a great contest.
ReplyDeleteQueen Anne's Lace is the one I plan to win. Mewahhh. But then I'll just have to send it to mental p but that's okay.
ReplyDeleteOMG I love the Daisy for sure. They are my favorite....
ReplyDeleteQueen Anne's Lace, but I truly love them all. Thanks for introducing me to the addictive world of textures :)
ReplyDeleteThey are all lovely, but my favorite is Queen Anne's Lace.
ReplyDeleteTurkey Point two.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how the change of angle and the use of shadow completely makes it look like a different lighthouse.
Without a doubt, that's a home run!
So bummed, I missed out on your giveaway.....
ReplyDeleteStill wanted to tell you my favorite was Queen Anne's Lace. Memories of childhood :) darn:(
~cheryl
Really like 'em all. Daisy, Queen Anne's Lace, Vestry Windows especially. But that Valentine's one, with the goldfinches? That's my pick. Just love it. Boy, lots of comments, huh? Cool.
ReplyDeleteThat daisy is gorgeous....second (not by much) is the Queen Anne's Lace....very lovely.
ReplyDeletewell country girl it looks like you have your hands full! alot of people really love your work and they are all brilliant any of them would look wonderful in a vintage looking frame. Good luck choosing a winner. and please stop by and check out my blogs

ReplyDeleteWow, the daisy is so lovely! Simple and elegant - love it! Georgia Rectors sent me - she mentions you a lot! Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI keep putting off entering because I can't decide on a favorite! But I think I'll have to go with "Valentine's Day." They are all gorgeous, Kate!
ReplyDeletexoxo,
Mary
I am a graphic and Web designer and i love how you have altered your photography with programs! No many people do that these days...I'm actually afraid to add graphic alterations to my photography in fear that it will ruin what i've tried to capture, but you do it beautifully!
ReplyDeletehttp://mysilentstories.blogspot.com/
I love all the photos, but Turkey Point Light would look best in my new Spa-ish bathroom. Thanks for you daily posts - we do appreciate them.
ReplyDelete~Laura
My favourite by far is the Daisy photo...... I LOVE daisies with a passion so maybe Im a little biased lol
ReplyDeleteCame here via punkn's blob... lovely place you have here...

It was a hard decision but my favorite is the Turkey Point Light 2 and I will be pimping this giveaway on my blog at rockymountainyankee.blogspot.com. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteToo. Hard. To pick just one! I'm torn between the Vestry Windows which is very cool and a great angle, and the Daisy which is fresh and cheerful.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! Thanks for letting me play along. I'll be checking out your photo gallery. You have a great eye!
They're all gorgeous! My favourite is Tukey Point Light 3 :-)
ReplyDeleteYour Daisy in Bloom makes me so happy! I love the feel and look, I love the flower and angle, everything about it. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteLovin' the queen annes lace!!
ReplyDeleteI loved all the Turkey Points, but I'm going with #2, looking out over the water.
ReplyDeleteand then, I adored the Crabapple!
