"Everyone should have something to smile at everyday.....

And a judibird DOT does just that!"--my friend Suzanne

so  exactly what is a DOT?
A DOT is a creation hand made by judibird, an artist I have met on Flickr. judibird DOTS
are also know as "Decorations, Ornaments, and Toys". You can use them in so many ways to enhance your photos of your creations I just had to point them out to you because you will never have seen such enchanting little creatures before, I guarantee. Here are some examples, in a Holiday theme, of how  judibird herself  and also a photographer contact, Mr. Mushroom,  use DOTS.

I chose these two to show you the energy that just comes right out of the photos and is absolutely charming!

"Moonstruck" by judibird -- I LOVE this!

"Merry Stinkmas!" by Mr. Mushroom. Sorry if you object to me publicizing your photo, M.M. I adore it. You can write me later and kill me if you gotta. I like your work. DOT by judibird, of course.

Suzanne also said to me, when I mentioned I was going to publicize judibird on my blog,  "I told her you just never know where it could lead her artistry..... and it truly is an art! I certainly could NEVER come up with the ideas, or could I create them!!!! AND HER PICTURES and SO COLORFUL AND CREATIVE AND AMAZING!!!!"
here are a couple of Suzanne's I really love:

(click the small ones to enlarge) This was taken in a very hot area of the USA  so the little devils informed their new pals they were quite comfortable! The cat looks like my friend Felix from my childhood. love the tinies, too!

This one by Suzanne is called Hi!  ( hahahaha!) DOT by judibird--this one just knocks me out!

I just get really cheery when I look at these photos and I think that many jewelry designers NEED inspiration from other types of artists when they are creating.  If you buy from judibird, you are going to ramp up your creativity as soon as you recieve your DOT or DOTS in the mail. I guarantee this. Nobody does it better, as the old James Bond song goes!

here is another photo from the wonderful judibird:

This is called Bunnypoints--how wonderful is this!  Is everyone happy now?  I know I am!
and one more I really am enamored of because I think of MOI:

Ahem..I have never told you this before, but I like to think of myself as "queenly". Jean, my name, comes from my grandmother Regina. Latin for Queen. If my parents had only named me Regina my nickname could have been my dream name, GINA, but that is a story for another day. It a rare Scottish Catholic girl like myself who sports a cool moniker like Gina, darn it. Oh jean, get over yourself! DOTS and photo by judibird.

OK, so I took the liberty of taking some of judibird's lovely photos from Flickr without her permission. Forgive me, judibird, I just love your creations so much and your sense of humor is irrepressible.

judibird, I love you. I want people to know about you. I hope it is OK to mention in the spirit of this holiday season that you have been a brave and strong lady going through a difficult time this past year. I know many people (possibly you) are private, but I would like to mention this to my readers because at this time of year some people help themselves by helping others.  It makes them get out of their own worries and makes them feel better, It is a universal form of therapy which is based on the amazing human ability to give love. Love is the most important thing in the world. Hope, laughter, and really caring are right up there, too. Artists are apt to understand this innately. So do many other kinds of people. YOU reading this, understand. I know it.

SO: If you are reading this, please think of judibird and think of me , because I always steer you straight. You cannot lose if you buy a judibird DOT! Or a bunch of them ! Please do and your love will come back to you tenfold. And you also will get a gazillion tons of fun! judibird is truly fun, and I am certain that that you already love her as much as i do!

Merry Stinkmas, Mr. Mushroom.  Thanks for your pic I stole!

Thank you too, everyone! You rock the house!--jean...uh...GINA  :)
