Hello ladies,
In keeping with the spirit of whimsy at painted Lady fingers, I bring the 50 Followers and Beyond Contest to a close. Thanks to all my lovely readers and entrants! Since the list of followers now shows a gathering of ladies beyond 100, I have another giveaway in the works. I really can't express how much I appreciate the warm response and kindness I have received since my very first post. I decided to have two little friends help me select the winner of Coraline Kit A.
Let us begin!
We start with a teacup filled with the names of all the entrants. There is something stirred in that is not camillia sinensis! Curious!
Let us explore! It seems on further inspection to be cut and sifted Nepeta cataria from the mint family.

This is more commonly known as catnip. Kittle and Gerry have been set with a challenge: to transport the small paper rectangles to the furthest destination. The paper that travels the greatest distance beyond the center will show the contest winner. The feline assistants were serious!
Gerry used everything he's got!

Kittle rested after such a colossal undertaking. What did I find on the floor beneath the tall wooden cabinet?

I also need to extend my thanks to my friend David for letting me obliterate his living room with the help of two of his cats, all for the love of nail art, and I am certain, a love of ladies.
