An award!!!

I was recently gifted the honor of the Arte Y Pico award. How awesome is this??? My dear friend Lori (yes I have mentioned her before) is constantly rewarding me with things. Thankfully the gift I get daily is her friendship. I love her to pieces. She is uber talented, an awesome Christian example and just simply a beautiful person.

So she sent me this award and now I am sposed to gift it to 5 others. Now, this is extremely difficult as I read a LOT of blogs. I also visit a lot that wouldnt know me if I said boo to their face. Plus since its such a "hip" thing to do it seems like all my friends have them. And well...*polishing nails* I got lots more than 5 friends, so if you arent listed, please no hard feelings...as I love you and your blogs!

OK...so heres what I gotta do:

1) You have to pick 5 blogs that you consider deserve this award for their creativity, design, interesting material, and also contributes to the blogging community, no matter what language.
2) Each award has to have the name of the author and also a link to his or her blog to be visited by everyone.
3) Each award winner has to show the award and put the name and link to the blog that has given her or him the award itself.
4) Award-winner and the one who has given the prize have to show the link of "Arte y Pico" blog , so everyone will know the origin of this award.

5) To show these rules.

1. Monkey Giggles is one of my favorite stops. She is sooo inspiring and so much fun! I love reading her view on mommy hood and lifes every day happenings!

2. Lisa at Blessed a Latte' is amazing! She is so energentic and how she keeps up with everything is an amazement to me. I LOVE her creativity.

3. Amy at Heartfelt Greetings is another wonderful person. She reminds me that despite our struggles its not impossible to be beautiful. Her work of course is amazing. And her faith in Jesus is all the more inspiring!

4. Debbie at The Shoe Closet keeps me rolling! I just KNOW I would love her if I ever met her in person!

5. Kirsten's Confessions of a Naptime Stamper is one of the very first blogs that I frequented. It is her that opened my eyes to Copic markers and pushed me forward in my love for coloring. Her style is soooo awesome and so fresh! I looove everything she does! And she makes it all look so easy!!

OK...I think that is it! Thanks again for this award!!

**EDITED BECAUSE KIRSTEN WAS ALREADY AWARDED THIS (RIGHTFULLY SO) SO I AM NAMING: SARA at Tweaks & Designs cause she is just AWESOME!!!!**
