Who want's some more BLOG CANDY???

Alright!! After 2 months I have doubled the number of hits to my blog and now have had over 5000 hits.....WooHoo!! So, in order to celebrate, I am offering some more yummy blog candy. This time I am giving away this 12 piece thick, beautiful double sided papers from K&Co......it is their Wild Saffron line. I also have this can of Island Pastel Prima flowers and a Threading Water Punch from Fiskars....it has been hard to find in my area, I just happened to walk into the store right after they put them on the peg. I have used mine on many projects lately (you can see some of them on my blog).

There are 3 ways to be entered into the drawing and you can have 3 chances to win if you enter all 3 ways.
1. Since I am due in the next couple of weeks and we don't know the gender of our baby, post a comment and guess if we are having a girl or a boy (no matter how you guess, you will be entered).
2. Post a comment with a link to one of your favorite projects (layout, card, altered item, etc.) that you have done.......link it from a gallery, your blog, a message board, etc. so that I can go and see.
3. Post on your own blog about my blog candy giveaway with a link so that they can come over and play. Then come here and post a comment to let me know where to find your post.

I will draw for a winner on Friday September 5th.

Good Luck!!

Congrats on doubling your hits on your blog and your soon to be new arrival Amy! I'm going to guess you are having a girl! :-)

And....one of my favorite LO's I've ever done is the "sew this is love" one on my blog with Perla the mouse from Cinderella! It was before Cricut and everything was hand cut and designed! It took me forever, but I was so happy with the finished product!

Tina said...

A couple of WEEKS!!!! Ok, so I think this time around it is going to be a girl.

My favorite recent project, well I have two. One is on my challenge blog and that was the use of animal print. I didn't own anything animal print so I had to buy something to use! You can find it at: http://challenges.lagniappefrommetoyou.com

The other is on my regular blog and it is those cute little box bags that are currently all of the rage. I made Halloween goody bags using the template and that is on my regular site where I am touting your blog candy giveaway (which is super nice)! http://lagniappefrommetoyou.com

Good luck with 5000 more in the next couple of months!

I also think it will be a girl. I don't have a blog & I haven't had time to make anything in a long time, so I don't have anything to show you, but wishing you luck with the baby!

Muttshouse said...

I think you'll have a girl! I hope you'll have an easy and speedy delivery and recovery. Make some extras for dinner now and freeze them for later when you'll be too tired to cook.

Here's a photo of one of my favorite LOs - it a composite photo of my kids on a dino statue from 2 different years (about a year apart).
