the beginning of my new business ...and giveaway

Well while having a shower this morning I decided May 29th (my beautiful mum's birthday) sounded like a wonderful day to open my new blog Cathy Penton Atelier...and to celebrate this I think I should have a giveaway... While in my little retail shop I always loved putting little treats into the bags of my dear customers. So here is a bit of a treat to all my dear blogging friends and customers out there...All you need to do is answer 2 questions.... When you think of me....what is the first thing that comes to mind??? and what is your favourite word or quote???? I will give away 2 prizes...1 for my Australian friends and one for my overseas friends...The prize will include a beautiful magazine (and I promise I will make sure it is one you haven't got) and a surprise from my new range... Giveaway closes May 28th......Please drop by!! I can't wait to hear from you....
Give thanks for what you are now, and keep fighting for what you want to be tomorrow. ~Fernanda Miramontes-Landeros
