Celebrating with Holley!

Holley Tondre Barnhart is celebrating her 8th year of seizure free health with a month long event on her blog.  You can get the details HERE and read about her amazing journey to health HERE.  I have to say every time I read it, I get teary eyed and so humbled and inspired by her faith and tenacity.  

In honor of this anniversary, Sandra Caldwell has designed a special stamp, #2010 Holley's Ouch Hippo and offered it for only $1.50, along with 3 others to participate in a contest with prizes.  You can find the details for the Hip Hip Hippo celebration HERE.  I've colored this cutie with Copics and fussy cut her to add to paper from the Sweet Talk stack from K&Co.  

I was looking for some brain quotes and came across this one which certainly seemed apropos, because no one has a bigger heart than Holley, giving back as she does not only during this celebration, but every day of her life.  Hope you are able to join in and celebrate with this amazing woman.  Now, I bet you couldn't guess in a million years who the quote is from.  Would you believe Albert Einstein?  Guess he really was a genius.

I'm also entering this in the DL.Art February Linky Challenge, the Outlawz, Monday Greetings, Festive Fridays and Saturday Paper ala Mode, Lil Patch of Crafty Friends #75 AG, Simon Says Monday Love is in the Air, Simon Says Wednesday It Must be Love,  Two Crafty Critter Crazies Feb AG/w Critter (2/5), and Crafty Animals AG/w animal.
