i love how the umbrella looks like a citrus slice - your drawings are so juicy! hope you are having a delicious, sunshiny birthday! xo
I just love "It's this simple". The words are perfect.
Happy Birthday. So pleased to have discovered your blog.
Happy Birthday Rachel!! I love "simply me, enough", but it was really hard to make a choice! I am already a fan on FB and a follower and I will write about you on my blog today!
Hi Rachel,
I'm already a follower and just became a facebook fan! If I have to choose, which was very difficult...my favs are, waiting to burst and invite the prairie. I will try to post this on my blog today or tomorrow. I'm off to a parade this morning to watch my son and then a baseball game. Happy day to you Rachel. :)

My favorite is "it's this simple". Exactly what I have tried to teach my kids! Just learned about your art, and have become a follower plus a FaceBook fan! Since I'm a musician, I also love "hit your high note".
I love "I make rainbows when I leap"! Your work is beautiful! I am following and Facebook "like"-ing RIGHT NOW! :-)
...HaPpY BiRtHdAy...What a wonderful give away. I went to your shop and the print -More Room- is among my favorites and will have a place of honor in my art spot If I am blessed to win.:)
I totally LOVE this piece of artwork. Of course, I am a fan of umbrellas in general and LOVE LOVE the smell of rain. :) You brightend my day today, as I am feeling a bit gloomy. Thank you!
I adore What we love matters
its something that I am trying to
remember in my daily life
no matter how "small" or "insignificant"
you think it might be to someone else
if YOU love it, its important
<3
"She leaned in Close" is a favorite here ... may all your birthdays be filled with color ...
I am having a hard time just mentioning one! But, I think I'll go with "More Room." That one is really speaking to me at the moment.
Stopping by from Izzy's. I'm follower #161.

okay... "taking in full skies" delivered so much joy and is my fav (but it's way too hard to pick one).
--the wanderer (michelle)
Happy birthday to you, Rachel!!!! "High Note" is such a favorite of mine. Love you and love your art!
So hard to choose. I already have Taking in Full Skies and New Life, which I adore. So I think I'll say Flower Showers is my new fave. May this year deliver happiness like you've never known before! Love you!
"It's this Simple"! I want to win!! Love everything you do, but that one feels like me!
I'll jump over and follow you on fb soon!

thanks for the heartfelt comment on our blog! I had great fun browsing around your etsy shop, and blog. I'm so intrigued by your work!
I love "It's this simple" but then I saw "More Room" and I love that one too! Great messages - which you can tell from our work, we appreciate words that speak truth! keep up the great work!
new blog follower!
new face book follower! we've got a page too: http://facebook.com/thingswithwings
Happy happy birthday! "Constellations are also on the ground" must be new? I don't remember seeing it the last time I looked. I love that - my new favorite. (In fact, if it were available in cards, I would buy a set or two. It would be such a great card to send to friends.)
elizabeth (& blessed all!), i just added a new card set to my etsy shop. you can pick three of any images from my prints/art & i'll send out two of each (set of six cards). hope that's a helpful & happy addition. xo
Oh my goodness, this is my first time here and I love your work! When your site opened and I saw your blog header I grinned & knew I was going to like it here! My favorite is 'above the storm clouds.' I am going to go back now and have another good look. It is very nice to meet you!
Oh. my. god. I LOVE her boots! Hard to choose but my favorite print is more room. All of your work just exudes positivity and happiness.
Happy Birthday :))
"All I did was listen" I just love this name.
I might paint this :)) Love from Melbourne.
This is so fun! And your drawings are so great!
I just became a follower, and also my favorite print (hard to pick) is 'to the brim'!
also, thanks for stopping by my blog, 'these 2 words'!

Happy Birthday, Rachel! I love the lyrics of this song.
I can't pick a favorite print! They all speak to me on some level--> the image on some, the words on some, both images and words on others. So, if I'm the lucky winner, I ask you to choose!
Thanks for the giveaway--Have a great weekend!
I'm too late for your giveaway :) You have very lovely style! This illustration is adorable! xo
Oh, phooey, I was unplugged for awhile and missed your giveaway. You know I think your art is so lovely and my fav is the one I bought from you.
Happy "belated" birthday to you!!
Aww, drats. Missed it!
I love the song, and I love your painting! Beautiful fluid lines, and her raindrop dress is fantastic!
Hope you had the BESTEST birthday!
