Birthday Candy

Well, I haven't posted any candy in a while, so I thought I would do some in honor of my birthday......I'm a tax day baby :) I'm not quite sure what will be in the candy, but I promise you'll like it!! So, if you are daring enough to play along for something you're not even sure what it is, then leave me a comment. I've been having a problem with color combos lately, so leave me a comment and tell me what your favorite color combo is. I'll draw a winner next Wednesday (probably in the afternoon, as I have to go to an eye contacts "training" class that morning.....for all of us newbies out there who don't know how to put in contacts!!)

I look forward to hearing what your color combos are and hopefully making some cards using them!

And the winner is.....

Cheryl KVD!

Here was Cheryl's comment:
I totally agree with you about blogging! I got addicted in May of this year!! It is so much fun to have so many cyber friends!! My favorite tradition is to open gifts one at a time. For my family of 17, it takes several hours to open gifts, but that way everyone can see what everyone got! Thanks!

Thanks to those of you who played. It was fun to read everyone's Christmas traditions.

Holy Cow!

I was about 40 away from 1000 hits when I posted the candy on Friday. (see post below) I thought it would take me a week or two to hit the 1000 mark, but I've surpassed it! WOW! I didn't realize that there were that many people out there reading this. I will keep the goodies open until midnight tonight (Sunday) and draw a winner Monday morning. Be sure to check back to see if you've won. Thanks for stopping by....it makes me happy to share my crafts with others.

Almost 1000 hits!

Well, we are almost at 1000 hits so I think that means it's time to celebrate! (Even though half of those hits are probably me & my friends & family!!) So, here is just a small thank you for coming to visit me. I started this blog to mainly share with my friends and family what I enjoy doing. Can you believe that I had never surfed a blog before I went on bedrest last winter? Now I am 100% addicted!

What you are playing for.........over 30 assorted 6x6 pieces of DP, a alterable 3.5x3.5 frame, over 5 yards of assorted ribbon and 4 flowers. (As I said, it's just a small thank you. I'm just a hobby demonstrator and don't make any money, but wanted to show my appreciation for stopping by.) If you are interested in winning this candy, please leave me a comment and let me know what your favorite Christmas tradition is. My favorite would be when I was younger, I would always get to open a gift on Christmas Eve, which was a new pair of pajamas. I would wear them that night and have new pajamas on for pictures on Christmas morning. Now I have carried that tradition on with my family. This year I have matching pajamas for the girls!

We leave for Florida on the 20th, so if we get to 100o hits before then, I will draw a winner. If not, continue to leave comments and I will draw a winner when we return (Jan. 7th). Thanks for playing and I look forward to reading all of your traditions.

Nuggets from Kirsten

A couple of weeks back, Kirsten (Confessions of a Naptime Stamper) had a contest going on over on her blog for some Naptime Nuggets. (I'm sure you have all seen Kirsten's work, but if you haven't, make sure you stop by her blog and check it out! She does AMAZING and INSPIRING work!) You could get a couple of entries in by answering a few questions and by posting a MFT (My Favorite Things) card that you had made. (here's mine) I had never left any comments for blog candy contests before, but since I had a MFT card that I had recently made, I figured "Why not?" And.....lone and behold......I won!!! I couldn't believe it! My first time playing and I won! This is what I won.....Setting the Stage stamp set from MFT, some Bazzill Cha-Ching brads, and some great May Arts ribbon. I hope to have some time soon to start playing with my goodies! Thanks Kirsten!

HELP!! I can't stop!!!

I'm making up for lost time from being on bedrest! I didn't get to go shopping for months and no I am making up! I was at Michael's the other day and couldn't stop myself when I walked past the $1 bins. I went there to get 1 thing and walked away with two bags full of stuff! I think I need a recovery group or something......wait! Who am I kidding? I don't want to stop!

I picked up lots of those $1 clear acryclic stamp sets and some acrylic blocks to go with them. I think I picked up one of each of their sets, which means I picked up 8-10 of the sets! I even got some duplicates, so maybe I'll be giving them away in the future for some "candy".....Maybe when I hit the 1,000 mark!

I hope to get back into the craft room soon and create with some of my Michael's goodies! Thanks for looking and enjoy this beautiful weather!
