Angela,
I'd love to win a copy of Pasticcio Quartz, especially the holiday edition.
Just returned to the library the wonderful "house" book you and Sarah Fishburn did. I scanned the pages in the back of the book and can't wait to try making my own.
Love ya,
I'm the first entry! Bummer... #1 never wins! maybe I should come back later! LOL! Anyway, I'd love to be in your drawing and will go to my blog now to link you. And the chairs are wonderful!
Your so cute there next to Santa! And hey it's raining here too (in Napa). Really pouring! Also, those are nice miniature chairs by Connie. I put both of your blogs on the "new" blogs I follow list. About time! Angela, I want to thank you for inspiring me to start my own blog.
Oh, goodie...I'm first! I'm in. http://somethingsublime.typepad.com
Merry Christmas!
Oh, what a lucky little girl you were to ride Santa's sleigh! That musta been enchanting.
I have a blog and a website so please pick one to put in the hat. Thanks:

Those caramels sound delish. I haven't tried them. But I'm curious now. lol.
The little chairs are adorable.
Lots of rain here too. I'm curious about your photography. Do you offer any workshops on handpainting pictures?
I just got the funniest email on how parents have forced their poor kids to see Santa. Glad to see you weren't one of those unfortunate children. The pictures were hilarious though, mainly of Santa's reactions.
I don't have a blog, so here is my email:

Thanks for the opportunity to win 'Pasticcio'.
Merry Christmas!

I already have Pasticcio #5 so the lucky one who wins is in for quite a treat! We have been getting storm after storm lately. This weekend should be delivering about 18" inches of snow! I would love to link your blog with mone but can't quite figure it out. I'm hopelessly PC challenged. Got any tips?
Hi Ms Cartwright, I too would love to enter your contest(jegerman12@yahoo.com)Since so many have been the "first" one to enter I guess I will be the first one also. I loved your pic with St. Nick. Merry Christmas to some, Happy Hanukkah to others, Peace and love to all.
Angela,
I feel a little strange writing to you. I have been enjoying your updates on your website for many years now, so it is about time I said thank your for your time and energy in sharing interesting and inspiring tidbits of your life. You have inspired me to return to my first love--black and white photography. I too began shoting and printing black and white at an early age. At the age of twelve, my father gave me a Yashika 12 twin reflex camera for Christmas and set me loose. I would love to be entered in your drawing for a copy of Pasticcio.
Thank you,
Deborah

OMG, I'd love to win ANY copy of Pistachio Quartz. I have several of your books/publications. LOVE them all. Plus, my husband made me show him your website when he looked thru one of my books. He said he had a crush on you "way back when", as I'm sure many did. Beauty AND Talent. THANKS, ANGELA.

How wonderful it would be to win
the holiday issue of Pasticcio.
I have your first issue but haven't been able to afford the
following issues.

Carmel , are you kidding ? I am struggling with chocolate addiction as it is. I'm up in Simi Valley and my friend Natasha plunks down this giant bar of chocolate (dark Belgian , like a 2 pd bar ) and says "Merry Christmas ". I spend the night trying to explain that it would not last the night if I took it home. I am so bad.
I'm off to Hamilton Ont CA to visit my sisters but I will check back to see who won. It's not winning thats important . . . . . it's free stuff ! And of course I get to raid everyones blog who posts here. I'm such a vampire.

And the three chair pic should make a neat wallpaper for my laptop. And you know what Angela , coming to your blog feels like this little puff of cool fresh air blows across my face. Very pleasant.
I'd love to win! Pick me!
I've been linking to your blog for quite sometime. I love it. I also love your artwork too! Enjoy the wet California holiday!

HI Angela,
You are soooooo creative. I love it! Last week I just bought a book called "artist trading card workshop". I looked in the back and saw your name. I used to watch Lost in Space all the time. Let's trade cards some time. What fun it will be to win your copy of Pasticcio Quartz. God Bless You and have a wonderful, peaceful, and happy holi-daze season.

I ordered your Soul Dwellings callendar from Cafe Press and was told they were not available. Will they be available elsewhwere? Last years callendar was gorgeous.
Would LOVE an issue of Pasticcio Quartz! Please include me in your drawing. :)
