It's My Blogoversary TODAY!!!!!

Wooohoo!!

TWO WHOLE YEARS OF BLOGGING, almost every day!
Oh my goodness...

Thanks to everyone who has been playing along, answering all the questions! There's still time to answer the ones you missed so go back and answer them all! I'll be pulling winners tomorrow.

Here's today's question:

What are the four design teams I am on? You need to also go and post a comment on each of those Companies' blogs then come post your answer here in the comments--I'll be checking!
(tell them you got there from my blog to make it easier for me to spot your comment-one does not have a blog--just tell me which one does not and I'll know you went there)

Post your comment below (it won't show up because I have them hidden until tomorrow) AND go to the companies' blogs to post comments there (about whatever their post today or this week is about) and I'll draw one winner from the correct answers. You gotta do both to win the prize! Yeah, I know it is a tricky question/task but to win a prize this good, you gotta work for it! LOL

What's the prize?

50 yards of ribbon from my super secret ribbon stash!!
Goodies from the Design Teams I am on!!
AND a kit from my Etsy Shop that is for sale this month (your choice)!!

And that is well over $100 worth of scrappy goodness! So get to posting those answers! Good luck and Happy Scrapping!

And thank you again for reading my blog, commenting, and playing along over the last 2 years. I really appreciate it and enjoy sharing my love of crafting through my blog -- thanks for keeping me motivated!

A Day Late and A Prize More!

Well, I was super duper busy yesterday and did not get home from my class until close to midnight so no blog post :(

But since I am a day late, there will be THREE CHANCES to win something today! Answer any one of these three questions to be entered into the drawing, Make sure you post a comment for EACH answer (increases your chances of winning) versus posting all the answers in one comment. Three winners will be chosen from the correct comments posted.

Today's Questions:

What (or for who) was the first custom banner I ever made?

For what organization am I the Creative Director?

What does that organization do?

Best of luck!! Winners all be announced tomorrow, Friday April 24, 2009.

Best of luck and Happy Crafting!!

P.S. What do you win? It is a surprise!!!

What's With the Hippo?

Today's giveaway is all about my Etsy Shop. I started an etsy store in 2007 to sell off extra class kits, goodies and embellies, and just general scrappy things. It's been fun to dabble in selling things handmade, from aprons to headbands to mini books. Now I am even a member of the High Desert Street Team for Etsy!

So here's today's question:

What's the name of my Etsy Shop?

And today there is a bonus:

What's the story behind the hippo on my blog banner?

I'll draw two winners on blogoversary day! One who answers the name of the shop correctly and the other who answers both today's question and the bonus question correctly.
