free art {and a winner!}

First of all I want to thank all of you who entered my first giveaway and welcome all of my new followers. 

Today is the only day that I have ever really wished that I could be Oprah. That you would all show up to see who won and I would say "surprise! everyone who entered gets a gift card! and now let's all hop on a plane and go to Australia!" Wouldn't that be nice?

So I thought...what can I "give" to my readers

and then I remembered all of the beautiful free printable art on the web

(that I have been meaning to use myself).

The first place that I would like to introduce you to is Indie Fixx... home of the free art project.

wouldn't these be lovely in a nursery?

and these are the prints that I am thinking about using in the Little One's room.

and they have lovely things for adults too.

all of these prints are on this page on indie fixx

if you prefer something a little more vintage then the graphics fairy and vintage printable are for you

i really like these vintage coffee & tea prints for a kitchen

and how lovely are these botanic prints
{pink flower, butterflies, hyacinth, lilypads}

and there are eggs and feathers for all of the bird lovers out there

and word art if that's your thing.
{fruit of the spirit, eat dinner, keep calm, easy peasy}

and most of these blogs have even more art to choose from. you could spend an afternoon picking out free art for your house!

and before i forget i had better announce the winner for the $25 csn stores giveaway....

And A Great Big Thanks to Everyone who entered!
