Introducing Creative Cards by Chrissy

As you all remember Chrissy Farley was the winner of my FREE Give-Away a few weeks ago and she was given the opportunity to create a project using some of the items that was included in her kit. Here is one example of an adorable Christmas card that she made.

And as stated in a prior post...if she accepted my challenge to create a project from the supplies that I had sent her then she would get the other kit as well. So I guess I'll be off to the post office today to mail her the 2nd Free Give-Away kit {wink wink}!

You did a great job Miss Chrissy! Thank-you for accepting my challenge and for creating such wonderful cards for me to share! I Look forward to seeing more creations after your 2nd kit arrives!

...and here is card # 2 created by Miss Chrissy! I just love the cute 3-D peppermint candy don't you?! It just adds to the yummy peppermint goodness! Very nice work lady!

Congratulations Miss Chrissy! I will be in contact with you soon so we can set-up arrangements for delivery of your package!!!

*~Happy 11-11-11 Day to YOU~*

I got a feelin' that today is gonna be a GREAT day for one LUCKY person!!! We are just 5 hours away from finding out who will be the winner of my FREE Give-Away!!! Can you feel the excitement in the air?!? I would like to thank all of you who participated in my contest and for working hard to refer your friends to both my FB page and my blog! I thank-you greatly!!!

I am not very savvy like some of the other blogs that use the Random Name Generator thing to pick the lucky winner?! Maybe that will be something for me to research and try out for the next FREE Give-Away??? But this time around I will do the old name in a hat method. I've been keeping track of all the new followers both on here and on FaceBook, kept track of all of you that left me comments saying that you're interested in participating and all the extra entries for each friend that you have referred...thrown all the names in a hat and........

~Happy Halloween~

From drab....to FAB!!! I bought this black feathered wreath 2 years ago during the after Halloween 75% off clearance sale. Last year I hung it up on the door and stuck a few orange round ornaments on it...this year I decided to FAB it up a bit and added a banner that I had made using the Art Philosophy Cartridge and leaves that I cut-out and stamped as well. It came out pretty stinkin' cute if you ask me! It is now ready to welcome all the little {and not so little} Trick-or-Treaters!!!
