I love to shop AND I ADORE pink!

I collect a few things...
such as books (this is a great one)...

Foxes (no, not the real thing ;0)

Dolls ( I love to make and collect them)
(this is by a dear friend of mine, Char). She has been featured in PRIMS (you go girl)Dress forms (a girl can never have too many)

I love to laugh

I kind of like coffee...a lot!

I love perfume (and, I still believe in miracles)

I adore roses (and quotes)

My word is "hope" and I place my hope in Him

This verse is the name of my blog. I believe in hope and encouraging others. I have a heart for women who have endured challenges in their lives and have worked to overcome them. I am inspired and humbled by many as they share their stories.
Thank you so much for stopping by!

I will have a drawing for a giveaway. It is a surprise.
It is such a surprise, that I am not even sure what it is yet....but, I am pretty sure that you will like it. Blessings,

LOL Fantastic post, my friend! There were a couple of things here that I did not know about you! VERY nice to meet you...again! Have a beautiful day!...Nancy :o)
Hi Holly, it is so nice to meet you! I love your use of pictures to tell us about yourself... I'm afraid I have way too many words on my blog. A picture is worth a thousand words?!
I just joined your blog... we all need lots of friends to have girl chats every now and then!
Happy hopping today...

Hi Holly, I'm still doing the blog party hop. Hasn't that been fun? I really enjoyed your blog and am now a new fan and follower. Hope you come over for a visit. Have a great day.
Hi Holly! Nice to meet you. I found you through Vicki's event. I love how you named your blog for your favorite Bible verse. My blog is called Drawing Near, and came from an influential Bible verse as well! :-)
Love your post and it sounds like you are having fun making a whole new bunch of blog buddies. I've not been around much this year as yet...working on things for the MDM.
Happy New Year Holly!
Hugs,
Sandi

Hello Holly, I'm hopping over from GYB. Boy, it's taking some time to read and meet everyone, isn't it? I love that you love books and roses and dolls. I do too. And, even though I don't drink coffee, (makes me too jittery) I love the idea of coffee and also love that I live in a coffe culture, Vancouver BC, for part of the year. Actually, I have to admit I'm a bit addicted to Starbucks Chia Lattes and, when I'm in England, I miss being able to pop down the street and grab one. (also, a chai costs twice as much in British pounds...how unfair is that!?!)
Love the name of your blog! I'm visiting via Vicki's GYB Party and enjoying your blog; the quotes are fabulous.
You have a very fun, inviting writing style! I love the description of yourself in the 'about me' in your sidebar! And I'm sooo curious about what your giveaway might be???!!
Stop by my giveaway, too, when you get the chance--

Cool to learn the origin of your blog name. Loved all the sights here today but the dress form best of all. Super Girlie!
Holly,
I loved visiting your blog and getting to know a bit about you. Stopped by via the party. Your header is really pretty. How exciting to have a secret giveaway!
Oh, I love the dolls you make. I collect dolls of every description! Thanks for the fun on your blog!
What an beautiful blog and such fun to visit. A surprise! Lovely. Please stop by if you haven't already and sign up for my giveaway. (I'm tardy because my motherboard died and went to the grave!) But, I have a replacement now! Hugs from Alaska. Karen

Hey there! Great post!
You came by my blog a few days back, thanks! Did you get to see mom's embroidery swatches? I posted it last Friday, no Thursday.
Are you back to blogging or just "here" for the party?
See ya next time! Jenn
Happy to find your blog on the GYB hop! I had some fun looking at some of your previous posts....Love your choir singer creations and the cone trees below!

I went and reread Jeremiah 29:11 and it is highlighted in blue, no date, I date most so I will know when it first meant something, but I also like 12, 13, 14, it finishes what 11 is talking about. Thank You
Hi Holly, lovely to meet you and I am still making my way through all the blogs from the Grow Your Blog Party.
I am your latest follower although I do not see me showing yet. Hope you will drop by and say hello. Carole xox
Hello, I hope you will please. I give you a prize "The versatile blog." Come and get it on my blog.
