Celebrating 10,000 hits with blog candy!



Happy FRIDAY! Fridays for me usually mean blogger's challenge, but due to midterms and a sick daughter, I didn't have time to play. Maybe tonight.

As you can see, I have hit 10,000 post and if have been a reader of my blog, then you know I love to give away blog candy. As always I have picked a few of my favorite items to give away. I will being doing things a little different than I have done previously. I am giving away three different prizes, so we will have 3 different winners. I will choose the first winner, and they will get to choose which product they like, the second person gets to choose whats left of the 2 products and the third winner gets whatever is left. You really can't go wrong, as I feel like they are all great products.

The products are The newly released enchanted lily set by Pin Cat Studio. 2 new punches by EK Success. These are wonderful punches and do punch better than the Martha Stewart punches.

SO, I would like to say THANK YOU!!!! Thank you for coming to visit my blog and always leaving such wonderful comments. I know how busy life gets, and I feel so fortunate to have such wonderful followers who take time out to leave a quick post. You all inspire me to get more creative. Thank you for helping me make my blog successful! I truly and honestly appreciate every comment you leave. You are the best!

DETAILS

1. Leave me a comment, and tell me what you enjoy most about a blog. Challenges, art, stories, whatever it is that draws you to a blog.

2. Spread the word!

3. I of course would love for you to follow me, but that is not a must.

4. SMILE!!!!! it's friday.

WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED ON FRIDAY THE 13th!!!!!

    I must confess i have become addicted to blog hopping. I had a knee replacement 6 weeks ago and since i could not get mobile without assisstance and discomfort my laptop and i started hopping from blog to blog and... i love it. Even tho i can now get around with a cane i still start my day with MY favorite blogs. I have been following you for some time. I enjoy your card creations and find them inspiring.
    What i look for in a blog is pictures, tutorials and giveaways.I like the tutorials with pictures best because i learn best by seeing the demo. I have added the giveaways as a catch because over the past 6 weeks it has given me something to look forward to. It has given me the feeling of interaction and made me feel less lonely.I've enjoyed reading other peoples comments and its made me feel like part of a special group.
    I will post a link to your blog from mine. Thanks, ms.cheryl

    You KNOW I'm a follower! I will post a link on my blog. Love coming here to see your amazing cards!

    I had these two punches in hand today at Mike's. I finally decided on the one on the right, got to the register and found out I couldn't use my coupon because they were on sale. I put it back with hopes that it's still there after the sale is over! LOL I love those Pink Cat stamps too!

    Congrats on your hits!

    Congats on all the visits! What great giveaways! Absolutely love the Lily stamps (still on my wishlist) and I just saw those punches the other day, but had to hold off since I just bought a bunch of Copics. I already am a follower of yours :)

    My favorite thing about blogs is the projects/pictures, and "meeting people". I am going to try and start working on some of the blog challenges to get myself in my craft room more often.

    Thanks for the chance to win one of these fabulous goodies :) Off to link you on my blog.

    I don't think I have a favorite about blogging, well probably the friends I have met. I have only been blogging since mid January and I have already "met" so many people. But I also, love the inspiration I get from challenges and from looking at other peoples creations. I have many (to many to count) that I try to get around to see whats new at least once a week. I'm now addicted to blogging.

    BTW, I found you through Carlz Cardz.
