BLOGAVERSARY coming up ...



***BLOG CANDY IS CLOSED****

WOW ... I just realized I have my very "1st Blogaversary" coming up on August 4th. Now that calls for a celebration and blog CANDY!!!!! Can you believe it!! And to think I said I'd never create a blog ... huh!! Boy am I glad I did ... I've met SO MANY wonderful people and had so much fun!


AND ... I see I turned over 30,000 hits while I was out having fun with the Stamp Simply ladies in Shipshewana, Indiana. Another reason to celebrate!!! I must go shopping for blog candy ... please stop back later (after my shopping trip) so I can share with you what you can win!!


** Edit to add photo of Blog Candy & instructions **

To qualify for my Blogaversary Blog Candy ... you only have to do three things:

1. Leave a comment on this post,
2. Become a follower of my blog (if you already are a follower, you name gets entered twice), and 3. Mention my Blogaversary & Candy on your blog and please link back to my blog (OPTIONAL).

That's it!! Since I'm so late realizing this milestone, I will wait until the end of next week (Friday, August 7th) to draw for the winner!

BTW ... there will no doubt be additional goodies added to the candy before the winner is drawn! Thanks for your support and good luck!!

    Congratulations on your Blogaversary Darlene! I'm already a follower, and I'll be sure to mention your Blogaversary on my post today. Good luck with the Clear Dollar Stamps Guest Designer Challenge. Your SCS Sketch Card is lovely. I love all the different shades of green. And I love the beautiful butterfly on your midnight madness card!
