AT LONG LAST......BLOG CANDY TO CELEBRATE!!!!

***THIS POST TO REMAIN ON TOP UNTIL NOVEMBER 13th. SCROLL DOWN FOR NEWER POSTS***

Howdy all!! I am sooooo sorry that I went MIA....believe me, if it had been avoidable, I would not have!! I have lots to share with you this week, but first and foremost, I think we are all FINALLY healthy again (crossing fingers AND toes here)!! And, nope, I did not forget about my milestone - I am THRILLED to have made it to 100K hits, it just blows me away!!!! Thanks again to all of you, I feel so blessed to have met so many wonderful people through blogging. I treasure each and every one of you!!! So, what I would like to do is explain how we are going to celebrate....yep, we are gonna PARTAY!!!! Here is the deal: see that picture of the USPS box? Well, ...... I am going to fill it up with YUMMY GOODIES for ONE LUCKY WINNER!!!! Each day I will give you a new piece of the giveaway and then on October 30th, I will draw the lucky winner through one random drawing!!! Why that day - well, that will be my BLOGAVERSARY!!!!! Yep, how about that!!!! Two years in blogland and I am still having fun!!! So, I thought it would be a great way to tie them both together!!! So, what do you have to do to get in the drawing? Here are the rules:
(1) Leave a comment here so I know you stopped by
(2) Add yourself to my blogger friends list - I love seeing everyones face
(3) Link me on your blog and tell them about the celebration!
That's it!!!! No quizzes, no recipes(well, only if you want to, LOL!), nothing but those three simple steps! So, want to see the first portion of the blog candy? Here it is: There are two sets of die cuts and one embossing folder - and these will fit any machine you have so not to worry!!! I actually have these three myself and love them and I use the Big Shot!!!! So, I will add some more fun goodies tomorrow and also will have a fun hostess gift to share that I did for a recent workshop. Until then, take care and thanks sooo much for stopping by!!! Smooches!
