My "100"...Cardinal in the Snow

     The 100 Fiber Artists for the Cure ended last week.  A very successful donation!  The "auction" started at 10:00AM on Wednesday, February 4; Virginia Spiegel, the fiber artist who coordinated the Fundraiser had donors  go to her website and donate $100.00 per fiber art work from 100 Artists', of which I was one.  In 2 1/2 hours she had all 100 works of art taken!!
    Within the day, I had an email address for the person who had randomly be selected to get my art.  My person is Cathy Ortelle who lives North of San Francisco and is herself a fiber artist!  So after contacting her and getting her mailing address, I sent my little cardinal (with whom I had really gotten attached!) off to a new home!
     I made a label for the art and put a sleeve on it so Cathy wouldn't have to mess with doing that.

This is picture of my label. I wanted to be sure and have the legend of the Cardinal on it! I love Cardinals and have decided to finish up the wall hanging I started before this one...beading and all!  I hope Cathy likes my little guy as much as I do!!
