Hello All!
Yep...that is....was....my camera lens.
Luckily I was able to order a new lens and I am happy to say my camera is back to normal! Yay! I realized how much I use my camera the day the lens broke. I am so thankful for my camera!

As most of you know, all of June is my Happy June Giveaway! (sign up for the first prize by clicking on the link). Since this site has such a variety of readers I am choosing a new item to be added to my giveaway each week, all of them different so that something will appeal to each person.


My next item will be announced tomorrow night. You have all month to sign up for the item(s) you like the most. All the gifts will be awarded the last day of June. I am so excited to do this. I appreciate all of you so much, all your visits and your kind comments and encouragement!

In the mean time, I am crafting away making a few more domino books (one is in the giveaway) and also working on two new videos. I did have one finished, but I have decided to do it over. So it will be a few more days before it is up : )

Also, I am still having some issues with Blogger. How are you all doing with it?
Hopefully it will all be ironed out soon!

Hugs,
Terri

    Oh, your poor camera! It looks so sad!

    I just re-watched your Spring Banner video. It's so pretty and it's another way for me to 'see' you ~ just like I'm in the same room with you.

    I'll be watching for your next giveaway item and can't wait to see what you're offering this time. Such beautiful Terri Treasures!

    And new videos? Be still my heart!

    Hugs

    wow, that lens really did break and disintegrate back into its basic elements. What kind of camera have you used? Someday I need to get a "big girl" camera with a fancy lens, so I can take fancier pictures :) :)

    I don't think I've been having issues with blogger...none that I'm aware of. I haven't gotten that many comments on my recent post...but that's not unheard of either. I think I'll ask about that on my next post, just to be sure :) :)

    Have a great week :) Love and hugs from Oregon, Heather :)

    That lens looks pretty mangled! Your giveaway sounds fun! How talented you are. Blogger has been behaving ok for me (for now as I knock on wood). Look forward to TTT!

    Hi Terri -

    Your poor pocket, looks like the lens put a dent in it - LOL! I'm glad you were able to find another one though.
    I can't wait to see your tutorials. May I dare hope that one is on your domino books?

    I'm so happy your camera is UP and RUNNING! Oh Yes, our cameras seem to be as important as our computers...Did you give your OLD lens a decent burial OR do you plan on using it for a re purpose craft thingy! Hmmm, it sure HAS made lots of memories!!!
    Big Hugs to you,
    Donna

    So sad about your camera lens...but glad you have replaced it already! Isn't it terrible to be without a camera - even for a day! I would be lost without mine, how would I be able to share my photo adventures with all of my cyber friends?!
    Hugs,
