Martha Haddock is my WINNER plus more to come.....

Martha Haddock was chosen from my random number generator. This is what she says: "Oh my Goodness! I am so excited!  I NEVER win anything so this is totally awesome!  Thank you thank you thank you!"


She will win the following plus the nurse card since that was her favorite:

CONGRATS MARTHA.

Now for the other surprise for the others that entered by email. There were 3 who liked the Wish Big Cup Cake, 26 who liked the Clown laughter, 6 who like Time gone by and 4 Waiting is worthwile. No one like Go in the directions of your dreams.....lol...... but I really didn't like it that much either. Most liked the above card. 

I will chose one person by the random number generator for each card and that person will win that card. I will contact you personally before it is made public on my blog.  There were about 5 who left emails but didn't tell me which card they liked and why.

WE HAVE A WINNER

Congratulations to  Kathy McCloskey who won  October's Blog Candy. I must repeat that someone else actually won but did not leave their email address so I must impress on you that if you want candy, you must leave an email with your comment. But Kathy was next on list and congrats to her. She will win the wooden "Happy Grad" and "Christmas Greetings" sets plus a few of my handmade cards. Keep the comments coming. 
        On the 4th of November beginning at 9 pm EST, the blog tour begins, this is a must for anyone wanting ideas. I think it is the best tour around. Be sure to check it out. I have chosen one stamp set for you to experience. 
        And until then, I hope you are playing the Jester Game. After the 6th clue, go to the website in the instructions for a chance to win:

Sick?

Here is a card I made with the new technique called "inlaid" because all the additions to the card look inlaid once you put them through the embossing folder.

I have notified by email, October's winner for the blog candy. As soon as I hear from her, I will announce who it is.

Blog Candy and how to make the wreath

First of all, the blog candy I am giving away for the month of October will be: 1) Wood unmounted "Happy Grad" and Wood unmounted "Christmas Greetings". I will choose a name from the comment (by random generator on Nov. 1st. Remember that to be eligible for the candy, you must leave a comment and your email for the month the candy is offered.
Also I am offering Blog Candy for the month of November and the Royal Blog Tour. The blog candy for the month must be comments not made for the Royal Blog Tour. Only comments made under the Royal Blog Tour will be eligible for that candy. There are more requirements for the Royal Blog Candy so please read carefully when the tour is posted on the evening of Nov. 4th.

Many people asked how to make the wreath from my make and take. You need to cut out a circle from chip board. I used the sizzix circle Big XL and then cut a smaller circle for the inside. You will have to attach the cut off part of the circle together to form the wreath form. Then, put our paper in the folder, Put the chip board circle on top and run through the Big Shot. I then used a sponge dauber with artichoke to color the wreath and then real red to dot the berries.

WE HAVE A WINNER

Carol Carriceau won the blog candy for picking the right card and giving me the correct stamp set for the Regional Cards. Congratulations. For winning, Carol will receive a Hostess set called "It's the Thought"

General Baltimore Regional Swap & Blog Candy

Here are some cards that I swapped out from the general demo's at the Baltimore Regional.

Now here is the deal. I will give away something Stampin' Up if you can guess which card I have picked from all the Baltimore Regional Swap Cards. There are three posts (two under this one that have all the pictures from the Regional Convention. If more than one picks the card I am thinking of, then I will have a drawing. And don't go by which you think I like the best, as I picked the card randomly. You also must tell me what the name of the stamp set used on the card. If there is more than one stamp set used, please list both. The stamp sets are either in the main catty or the Holiday Mini. I am going to make you work for this one, but the prize will be worth it.. You have until  Saturday, 12am EST. Good Luck.... Yea, Blog Candy.

* Christmas Cards

I remade my door card. It now looks like my front door from the inside. One of the cards you may notice very old (from at least two years ago) DSP paper. I am using this up to make cards to sell at the craft fair. But notice the paper beads I made from the DSP paper. Aren't they cute? You will see more of them on current stuff. The last card is the Christmas Collage. I may use them for a swap I am in but haven't decided yet.

Jean contacted me last night was very excited to be the winner of the blog candy. It is on its way today. Everyone else, keep trying.

Jean Fitch is our August Blog Candy Winner

Congrats to Jean Fitch. The lucky number was 14. She will win the Halloween set. Remember to keep writing your comments and leave your email with the comments to be considered for September's Blog Candy. I will also be giving away blog candy to one of my followers in the middle of September so if you are not a follower, join and you will have another chance to win. Happy Labor Weekend Everyone.

Blog Candy for August Announced

Remember that I have decided that once a month I will give blog candy out. The only thing you have to do is leave a comment with your email address. It doesn't matter which item you comment on, just so long as it was posted during the month. The candy will be a surprise and won't be announced until the end of the month.
Well it is almost the end of the month and I am giving away:

I have used one of the stamps once but it is cleaned and you won't be able to tell it was ever used. It is the wooden stamp set. If you already have this or do not want it, please let me know so I won't include you in the drawing that will take place on September 1st. Remember, that if there is not an email attached to the comment, you will be eliminated. Good luck and keep the comments coming. I will also be giving away another stamp set to a follower very soon. Keep on the look out.

Blog Candy

Don't forget that I need your email address when you post in case you win. I have tried to track down people who have not left one and they never responded. I would hate for you to win something and then lose it because I can't get a hold of you. For the time being, I have been giving out blog candy at the end of each month and sometimes if I feel like it to a follower. I don't know how many more months I can keep this up, but after cleaning my stamp room, I found that I had duplicates of certain things, mostly stamp sets. When I announce what the prize is, if you have it, please let me know and I will pull your name out of the drawing. These are current sets and CANNOT be sold so let another person who does not have one win it. Maybe next month you will win one you want. If you leave more than one comment, it gets counted so the more you comment, the better your chances.
Leave your email with your comment always.... if not, you will not be considered for the candy.
