I'm having an amazing life - eternally grateful - Priceless Moments - ACEO Original Collage by dragonhouseofyuen


Priceless loved to spend time by the garden pagoda and the trees that made small sapphires and emeralds from their buds. He was so content, ‘I’m having an amazing life’ he would say, thank you! I’m eternally grateful! No matter what the weather he always spent time giving thanks. This little collage has been compiled from my illustrations of rabbits wearing jumpers, paper scraps and ephemera and recycled brochures and magazines. There is also a bit of silky material from a vintage scarf. Original ACEO collage. It has been signed on the back and dated. It comes with a certificate of authenticity.
I support WSPA, the BUAV, Rabbit & Guinea Pig Welfare and the Buckeye House Rabbit Society.

Giraffe Greeting Card with Envelopes Included by ArtByMarilyn


I did this giraffe in memorial of Steve Irwin. I enjoyed watching his show so much. He was so informative and loving towards our environment. He is missed. His favorite saying, "Crickey", is in a word, Steve. This is a greeting card and note paper.

See the joy return to their eyes by BenMcfuzzylugs


This fantastic charity saved my lovely dog Mia from a pound in Ireland with only days to live. They visit the pound and photograph the dogs. Desperately trying to find homes for them, racing to get the dogs out of the pound before they are put to sleep and making sure they get veterinary assistance. On top of this they also have to find the funds to keep saving these dogs. If you buy this listing you will get a collage of some of these dogs in their before and after shots - it is just amazing to see the difference in these animals - the love and joy returning to their eyes. The collage also contains the touching rescue poem 'the reason'. This is my way of trying to give something back to these wonderful people who do hearbreaking work every day.
