Testing new features on my blog

Excuse me a moment while I test email posting and my new blog feed settings.
Can I also insert a photo by simply attaching to this email? Let's try it!
This is a portrait of an Iris called The Purple Lady.

Help Haiti Blog Challenge

Today I joined the Help Haiti Blog Challenge. I designated a piece in my Etsy shop as the blog challenge piece, this One Body pendant also known as the Melting Hug by some of my fans.

I will donate $100 - the complete purchase price- to DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS on behalf of the person who buys this pendant through Etsy and pays by paypal.

Now, Pass it on. Read Kelly Diel's blog for details, and choose something you can offer to sell that can become money to send to help the folks in Haiti survive this disaster.

Thank you, Tammy Vitale, for inspiring me to do it. I didn't know how I could contribute until this idea came along!

Tammy Vitale's Help Haiti Blog Challenge

My artist friend Tammy Vitale has posted a Help Haiti Blog Challenge. She is featuring a beautiful necklace for sale. The entire purchase price will go to Haiti Earthquake relief.

Visit her blog, Women, Art, Life: Weaving it all together for more information. I see from Tammy's blog this is a movement! I'll be posting a piece for this project as well, by sundown.

Watch for an interview with Tammy Vitale, coming soon to TouchingArt.

Prayers for the People. Let the aid get through to them.
