I guess it's no secret now what's so special about today! :)
(No one guessed correct yesterday)
I am soooooo excited to hit this milestone, and I *know* I couldn't have made it through this year of blogging without the support and encouragement of all of YOU! Seriously - stopping by, leaving comments - these efforts make my day! Especially the comments, but...we all know how precious and rare those can be. ;-)
I feel like jumping up and down, throwing confetti...I feel like celebrating!
Would you like to celebrate with me? ;-)
OK! Bring on the balloons and CANDY! :)
I think this looks better IRL. :-( Though...there are a few things I would change on it, but I really wanted to get this posted today! :) Do you see the sparkle on the Wild Wasabi & Marina Mist Balloons?!! Love it! :)
Ready for the CANDY?
Blog candy, that is! :) All of this could be YOURS!! 7pc "Happy Moments" Stamp set, "Stamped by" stamp, Black Ink Spot, Button assortment, multiple yards of ribbon, designer paper, brads, clear half-beads (aka faux dew drops), and the card posted above! Only a couple of things (brads, portion of ribbon) are non-SU...the rest...STAMPIN' UP! :)
For the non-crafting individuals who leave comments...the winnings are 10 random crystal-made cards! :)
How do you win? Simple:
1. Leave a comment on this post - whatever you'd like to say, or ask, or would like to see more of, or what your favorite post of mine has been in the past year...etc. (include if you'd rather own the crafty stuff, or the 10 cards) Also...if you comment annonymously, at least include your first name in the comment so I can distinguish it from the others if you win!
And just because you like me so much and want to make my day...and you'll earn extra credit...
2. Follow me! (see lower RH sidebar, Google Friend)
Please SPREAD THE WORD to your friends! :)
I'll draw a random winner on Monday at 5pm PST.
Thanks so much for stopping by (this past YEAR!), and have a GREAT day!
Crystal

ReplyDeleteWOW - that is fantastic. Congratulations! I just created my blog a few months ago and can't believe how much fun I'm having. And that is SO SWEET of you to offer candy for this fabulous milestone.

Congratulations Crystal, how exciting to celebrate 1 year. Having a blog is easy to start, but definitely takes some work to keep it going. I've been a follower for awhile now, and you have a great blog with a lot of great ideas.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your wonderful blog!! It always inspires me to want to be creative! I love all your creations!
ReplyDeleteHave loved seeing all your beautiful, creative cards and hearing the stories behind them. Especially liked the Easter blog and others when you shared sentiments about various passageways and events in life. May you continue to craft and inspire others as you continue on in your passion. God Bless, <3 Delly
