Fabulous Fridays w/ Cocoa&Hearts Giveaway!!!

My fabulous friends! What's the good word today?  Could it be...
POSITIVITUDE!!!

Honestly, it's been a CRAZY day at work and my brain is soo scattered right now. Had an outfit post for today, but the images turned out no bueno. Darn! So, I will be posting it tomorrow. In the meantime, I have a SUPER AWESOME goodie for you! Happy Friday dolls!

Yesterday, I purchased a BEAUTIFUL painting from Jen Ramos and can't wait to get it!  Unless you've been living under a rock, then you know Jen has expanded her MadeByGirl business into original artwork and recently opened Cocoa and Hearts and I am SWOONING over her pieces.


So, I caved and bought a painting. YAY!!! But it gets better because I will be GIVING IT AWAY! Yes. Read it again.  As much as I'd love to keep it for myself, I know you guys will love this.  Her work has LITERALLY been flying off the shelves so I had to snatch one fast.
Here's the one I bought - ain't it a beauty??
COLOR 28


HERE ARE THE SIMPLE RULES (YOU MUST DO ALL 3!):
(1) Follow my blog via GFC (Google Friend Connect)
(2) Follow Jen's blog HERE
(3) Leave a comment below on where you think you'll put it.

DEADLINE:
The contest will CLOSE at 11:59PM CST on Thursday July 14th, 2011.
ONE winner will be drawn at random and announced on Friday July 15th. 
GOOD LUCK DOLLS!

THE GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED!!!!

Would love, love, love to hang this in my bedroom - the colors are perfect!

Thank you so much for the giveaway! I'm torn about where to put Jen's lovely work! My first instinct is in my bathroom next to my pink "la la love you" print (the colors would be FAB together), but I'd also want to show it off more to guests in my entry way...delicious choices!

Great work ladies!

I'll hang it up on my bedroom wall when I get back to school. I live in a 3 bedroom apartment, and lucky for me I get the biggest room so I have plenty of space to fill up with beautiful art like this piece.

I've been reading both your blogs for a while and now I'm following. If I were to win, I'd put this painting in my beautiful best friend's apartment. She's had a tough year and her mum is terminal - she needs this little ray of sunshine more than I do :)

You've become one of my favourite bloggers just now! Great giveaway!! I have follow MadebyGirl for almost 2 years now and it's in my top choices for inspiration. And I admire Jen as a designer, as an artist, wife, Christian, etc! I'd looove to have this painting because I live in Costa Rica and those brigh rich colors totally match our vibe here. I'm thinking it will be perfect for my new bedroom, which I'm working on. I hope I'll be the first in Costa Rica to have Jen's art!!! Crossing EVERY finger! :)

(1) Just started following you, and so excited about it!

(2) Already following Jen - she's so talented!

(3) Just moved to Ireland and left most of my favorite decorative items in storage back in the states :( I'm seriously lacking on pretty things here, so I have plenty of empty spaces in my new apartment that are begging for something cheery like that little beauty!
