self promotion blog hop

Margot Potter is hosting a self promotion blog hop and giveaway to launch her new e-book and I'm excited to be a part of it!!

On the hop each of us artists and designers get to promote something that we have been working on AND then we also get to giveaway a copy of Margot's new e-book The Fine Art of Shameless Self Promotion. I've read Margot's book and it has the same energetic and chatty tone as Margot. It's like sitting right next to her and have a conversation with her!

I came over from Amy's site. What a cute idea to make an Advent train from your printable. I love it.

And since I'm here, I'd love to enter to win one of Margot's ebooks, and I'm off to download the Christmas tree freebie.

Thanks!

Oh my goodness!! My boys will love the train one from etsy. I will have to buy it later in the week. Just added it to my favorites. I would never have known about your blog or shop if not for the blog hop, so it's working.

And I would love to be entered for the book. I don't have anything to shamelessly promote, but I plan to really soon. Thanks for the giveaway and the free pattern.

Nothing wrong with shameless self promotion. I should do it more often.

Word verification... on the other hand... grrrr

I could use some new skills in this area... my weak point is promoting myself. And thanks for the freebies! I have always loved your work- you were my intro into the world of mixed media- they didn't teach us that at fine art school!
