The Critter Ranch Creekside Tranquility giveaway!

Sue from The Critter Ranch translated a beautiful memory of her childhood into this gorgeous Llama batt called "Creekside Tranquility". Gosh, I just love the colors in this- so gorgeous and it really does look like there is a clear blue creek running through it!

There are so many gorgeous things in The Critter Ranch's shop! I am really loving the chocolate "truffles" with little glints of silver through them- yum!!

Please visit The Critter Ranch today, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll be drawing for a winner soon, so please take a moment and share this shop on your favorite social networking site for extra entries!
