So far January has been a fairly quiet month. Which is totally understandable being that is wasn't all that long ago that we all finished with substancially lighter wallets after Christmas, lol.

I had the honour of making 3 large 12x 36 signs for Collectors Armoury Ltd.  www.collectorsarmoury.com/ep5sf/  for thier booth at the Las Vegas Tradeshow.  Being a small town girl, this was pretty exciting for me. I was promised pictures and will be sure to post them as soon as I get them.

The winner of my contest Dave Roberts recieved his free plaque http://www.vividcrystal.biz/your_sign6.html  . 

It was thanks to Dave that I was introduced to the The Saskatchewan Appaloosa Horse Club (SAHC) where I've since donated 1 sign and am working on the 2nd sign donation to them.  I am also getting ready for my donation  to the rodeo team at the University of Tennessee at Martin's Silent  Auction this will be the 3rd year in a row that I've donated to them.  Diane from the school  came up with the design. I love it !! Hopefully it'll bring them in a bunch of money.  Again it's thanks to my customers that I am able to have the privledge to donate to these organizations.   

Those who know me well, know I LOVE doing animal portraits on signs. That's why I couldn't resist doing a sign for Kat Von D from LA Ink, of her Shinx Cat Ludwig (as seen above). I am hoping for a pic of her (and Ludwig) with the sign to post on the site. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

NEW!!!!! Check out the About the Artist Page, and you'll see some cool youtube videos I posted, and hope you'll enjoy.  As well as if you check out the main page www.vividcrystal.biz, you'll see I made a video compilation of a bunch of the signs I did.
