Celebrating 20K!!

Hi everyone! I logged on this morning to see that I've reached the 20k hit mark on my blog! WOO HOO!!!! I have to take a moment to thank you all for visiting me. I love to have visitors, and I read all the comments, and I do my best to visit all of you who do comment because I think it's a great thing to return the favor.... so for all of the visits, comments, and other support, I say THANK YOU to each and every one of you. NOW, I have decided to celebrate by offering a little blog candy for you!

Since we're all crafters, what better than to give you some items you can craft with?? Here's what you get:

1 - 8x10 frame (holds a 5x7 photo)

1 - full sheet of On Board Accents from SU!

2 - 6x9 board puzzles

1 - mini photo album (see my Christmas in July post for project idea!)

ALSO, I will include a card from this blog so you can see it in person. You never know what you're gonna get, either! Do you like surprises? I do!!

SO, here's how you can get in on the fun:

1. post a comment on this post. NO annonymous entries. One entry per person.

2. share this opportunity with those on your blog, your friends, whatever. Just spread the word! I'll check your blog out too (fun!). And if you're looking at the comment list, be sure to check out other people's blogs that post here. I'm sure everyone loves to have visitors!

3. Either include your email address on your entry or check back here to find out if you've won, and you can email me then. Then I send you the goodies!

So, does that sound like fun? COOL! I'll pick a winner on Tuesday, September 9, so keep coming back to find out if you've won!

psssst....

A little heads up for those of you who listen to my music playlist... I had a LOT to fix on there (I guess the links change from time to time and cause errors) and added a few new ones in there today... if you can find them, post here and tell me which ones they are and I'll send you a card from this blog in the mail!

Have fun searching!

ps - there's about 6 or 7 new songs... you only have to name 3.

Blog Candy Alert!!

OMG, this is not an SU! thing, and it's not my own blog candy (though I will be offering some soon!), but it's AWESOME ENOUGH to share with all of you! Click HERE to find out how to get your own chance to win this candy (but I'm secretly hoping it's me! lol). It's a new release from Starving Artist Stamps, and if you're anything like me, I'm DYING to get my hands on these!!!

Good luck!!

BLOG CANDY!!

Since I was such a bad blogger for most of the summer, I decided to make it up to you all and win back some traffic in the process.... as my promise that I will do better!!

Here's some goodies I have available for you all today:



It's Die cut mania - with 2 packs of eyelet washers in brights and earthtones; 2 packs of full-sized layered tags in earthtones and regals; 3 packs of funky flowers and outlines in brights, primary brights and earthtones; 2 packs of small tags in brights and regals, with whites included; and 3 packs of some funky shapes in subtles, black/white, and earthtones.... THEN I have an entire, unopened spool of lavender twill tape ribbon, and a bundle of several yards of a multicolored-green and earthtone-woven fiber (approx 7/8" wide). Lastly, an entire package of specialty USA-themed brad-backed buttons in a brasstone color.



Now, who is gonna get this candy? Comment here showin' some love - I am shamelessly plugging for more traffic after my lull in activity. When I get to 10,000 hits, I'm going to offer some more (and even better) stuff as a reward! So, get commenting and keep em comin'.... we're all in this together! No ANONYMOUS comments will win, so please let me know who you are so I can contact you if you're the winner!


The winner will be announced on Monday, good luck!!

Blog Candy Winner is...

Thank you to EVERYONE for your posts and opinions on what you like about your favorite blogs. I was happy to see all the responses! So, now for the winner....I put names in a hat, and the winning post is:

Hi Gina, well since I am creativity challenged I come to the blogs for ideas from the posted cards and the tutorials. I am a very good CASER, but tend to change things up. If I have to look at a blank cardfront, I can come up with NO ideas unless I have seen something else done. I am really that bad. So, keep on blogging cause I love your blog.Cheryl Sims

CONGRATS Cheryl! Please email me your address to send the goodies to. I hope you'll enjoy it!

Keep your eyes out for the next candy - I'm not sure when it will be or what milestone I'll do it for, but surprises are always around the corner, so come back often!

Blog Candy!

Hi! I'm feeling so happy after yesterday's news that I decided to offer a little blog candy! What I have to offer is a mini photo album (perfect for altering - just take out the inserts and make your own art), a packet of quilled dragonflies, a container of different colored paper clips (these make great embellishments, and the container is AWESOME for storing punched tags or smaller shapes for quick access), and 4 gel pens (pink, lavender, light blue and light green). Everything is brand new and unopened, so if you're interested, please play!

Okay, here's what you do:

I want to hear what you enjoy most about your favorite blogs. Is it the cards? The tutorials? The blog candy? What brings you back day after day to the blogs you frequent? Post your comments here for your chance to win!

I'll leave this contest open until Sunday at 11:59pm. After that, I'll pick one name at random and the winner will be announced on Monday.

SO, get posting!

Do YOU have blog candy?

I have found that it's great when someone posts other people's blog candy, so if you're offering any right now, just post to this feed telling us that you're offering some, and then anyone who wants to go and enter to win can just click your name and/or link and give it a go!

So, now's your chance to spread the word....

Cheers everyone!

Blog Candy!

Okay, so I'm newly addicted to this blog. I hope those of you who are enjoying it so far continue to do so! If you like the work here, please come back - I have been adding to it every day, and will try to keep it up for you.

I have decided to cave to the blog candy gods and decided to offer some of my own. The picture above includes 2 ready-to-alter puzzles (5x7), and 3 bundles of fibers. One is just like Cool Carribbean, the other is a great combo of pastels and the last is a golden color, similar to So Saffron.

ALSO included will be 1 sample card that is featured on this blog somewhere. I won't tell you which one, so you'll just have to be surprised!

SO, wanna know what you gotta do to get it? First, you gotta post a comment here on this entry telling me one of two things: 1) that you've added a link to my blog from yours, OR 2) that you've subscribed to my blog (no anonymous entries, please, or I can't verify). I'm going to verify all entries, and will choose one winner to be announced on Monday.

That's it! Good luck to everyone - and tell your friends. All entries are welcome!
