Congratulations to My BlogHop Winner!

I just wanted to post the winner of the first Blog Hop I participated in.  This was such a positive experience and I had a fabulous time.  I've not been able to visit all of the participants blogs yet, but I will.  Thanks for taking time even though I noticed that most of you were out shopping early this morning and many of you did get great deals on your crafting supplies.  I love that

The winner of the Black Friday Blog Hop is Theresa of JuicyCreations.  Congratulations!  You have won a three pack of Sizzix, Sizzilits, named Baby Animals.

Black Friday BLOG HOP is sadly coming to a close

Hi!  I just wanted to let you all know that there is still time to get some of your friends to follow me.  I am so thankful and grateful to all of you who are following me and thank you for very much!

At 9:00 pm PST I will be drawing a name for my giveaway which is a Sissix, Sizzlits 3 Die Set.  It is so adorable.  The set is Baby Animals by Dena Designs.  There is a rabbit, a sheep and a duck.  I just loved this set so much.  I'm sure any of you will enjoy it.  Even if one does not have a small child, there is always Easter; which is when and where I use mine.  I tried to upload a picture of it but I was unable to.  I understand that this is a set that is being discontinued.

Well, I hope you've had a great time and if you just landed here, you still have an hour and five minutes to hustle to the other sites and get some good blog candy.  Hurry, we all love having you visit.  See the line up below:

Black Friday Blog Hop Continues

Hi, welcome to the hop!  If you have just stumbled upon my side; Fabulous!  If you've arrived because I was the next on the list, see the blog entry below for what to do.  I've learned that my pictures are not very good and I apologize for that.  On this side they look fabulous.  My digital took a dive last week and I've not had time to get it repaired yet, I will definitely work on that!  Again, I'm so sorry if you cannot see the pictures because the little purse is so cute. 

Any way, I have changed the parameters of participation:

Follow me and try to bring two followers.
Leave a comment telling me about your best crafting purchase you made during black Friday
and Please give me five things you are thankful for. 

I am thankful for...
*the fact that I still have both of my parents (they are 84 and young)!
*my three grandchildren, the lights in my eyes!
*my crafting addiction, it doesn't hurt anyone!
  I know we can't eat anything but TopRamen because of it, but hey
  aren't we all just "watching our weight"?
  Just Kidding LOL.  I don't think I can ever be completely serious.
*My four tiny teacup poodles.  Fabulous
*All of my family and friends...including all of you who I am meeting
  through this blog and Facebook.   You are all important to me! This part
  is serious!

So, to one and all have a fabulous weekend.
I will run my digital down to the digital camera hospital and see if they are able to resuscitate her.  Probably not, since it's the holidays and they will think they can sell me a new one.  Nada, I think I still have my old one (I'll go look now).

Icy, Icy Day Today Perfect weather for a Blog Hop!

Today has been an interesting day to say the least and I say that because, if any of you are familiar with the Northwest you know we do not get severe weather.  Well, not only did it snow last night (not a lot, just a dusting) our temperatures dropped here at my home to 22 degrees.  I ended up talking with the nicest gal in New Mexico and she has it was cold there; 80 degrees. What I wouldn't do for her weather with all these post injuries I have, I'd be in heaven there.  It's hard to recover from being hit at 55 mph when you're sitting still.  No worries, I will be fine!

I just wanted to let you all know that I will be keeping this light for the next few days, with the Holidays here and with everyone getting ready for them, there won't be much time for much.  I'm going to post a few pictures here of just a few cards.  These were made for our Community Center.  We give food and clothing to those in the community who need help.  I've been doing this for a couple of years and it gets to getting busy.  If anyone is interested in helping me.  We are adding any type of card birthday, Valentine, Sympathy, whatever type of card you'd like to make.  I'd love to have the help.  I hadn't thought of asking for help from anyone until I saw that Chris over at Turned Gypsy asked for help and that made me realize that I do not have to try to be super human!  The cards I have made to date are thank you cards; however, we will accept any type of card.  They are for our communities under-privileged.  Just leave me your email on the comment below and I will contact you with the address to send them to.  Thanks Chris for the idea. 



This was my favorite card I designed for our Local Community Center

  

Thank you cards for Community Center





Thank you cards for Community Center



These are four of my favorites.  I made 15 different designs.  That seems like a lot but I make them all the time, therefore, it really isn't allot as it gets tiring to make the same one.  However, their marketing people like to have some continuity with them

As far as the help in making the other cards it is from all ages of people to all ages of people.  We started thinking how nice it would be for the members of our community to be able to give their loved ones a card commensurate with the day without having to pay a large amount of money.  If you love this idea; I would love the help.  If you start this in your own community; let me know!  I love to give accolades and  I just may come up with a fabulous idea in the near future.  God Bless.  I'd love to hear from you. 

Don't forget to join our Blog Hop on Friday, at 9:00 p.m. 

There will be a prize for the Hopper who can bring me the most confirmed followers or networkedblogs. 

Keep Crafting, NayNay
