I have a lot to celebrate, and I want you to celebrate with me!!
What am I celebrating?
I am turning 40 years old on March 2nd!!
AND
It’s my 1st Blog Anniversary on March 8th !!
AND
I have opened my own ETSY shop!!
Three wonderful things to celebrate don’t you think?
So, I have decided to have a 3 day long party and you are all invited!!
Want to come to my party?
Let’s start the party TODAY!
To kick it off today, I’m celebrating my 1st blog anniversary
I can hardly believe that it has been a year already!! I have to say that I am proud of this little blog. I love sharing my ideas and creations with all of you and by doing so, I have allowed myself to open up, make new and wonderful friends, and learn much more about card making and crafting in general! I had no idea what would come of starting this blog, and I must say, I am still so surprised and so pleased by the number of people who stop in to see what I have brewing!!
Over 70,000 visits to my blog in the past year!! I mean really, that just blows my mind! Thank You for showing me the love!!! You know I am passionate about being creative, but you may not know how much your encouragement means to me artistically. I am very sincere when I tell you that every comment has brightened my creative soul!!

What’s a party without a bit of candy right? CREATIVE CANDY! All you have to do to have a chance at winning this candy is to join the party! Leave me a comment on this post, and mention my party on your blog if you have one! You can comment ONCE on all three days if you want to for a chance to win each day.
But comment BEFORE MIDNIGHT of each day, or it won’t be included in the random drawing for that day’s candy. I will post the three winners on March 5th.
Thanks for coming to my party!!

Congratulations on your shop and a new fresh start.
I haven’t been blogging for a while, so I haven’t posted this on my blog (yet).
I wish you all the best and plan to visit your shop soon.
Good luck!!!
