crafting this and that

Hi!  Made some notecards for my kids' teachers for Xmas.  Same idea as last year !  But the teachers receiving them are different.  I used each of the apple designs from PTI's Teacher's Apple stamp set on cream cardstock and envelopes. Wrapped up 12 notecards and envelopes for each of the teachers.  I stamped their names beneath the apples using Just Rite stampers tiny alphabet set. I've had the above stamp for a few months now and I haven't used it yet so I'd like to give it away.  I don't think we have that many readers so I'll send this stamp to the first person that leaves a comment on this post (not including Cheryl, of course).  Sorry, but I think I have to limit this to the US only.  Hope someone can put this stamp to good use. Thanks for reading and have a great week!

I was very fortunate to win some blog candy recently from Jen at Pieces of Me .  She was having a very fun giveaway, 5 in total and you had to take some pictures to participate.  I thought it was very original.  You can see my post HERE .  I was really happy to get some cute stamps, ribbon and flowers.  Check out her blog and see her cute stuff. And Then You Lose Some ... My layout didn't win for Rockin' Rebel 2 over at Club Anya and Friends.  The waiting for the winner announcement was just killing me cause it took a while longer than expected due to some internet trouble.  But it was disappointing that they didn't include any honorable mentions like they had said they would and that the announcement was mentioned in their newsletter instead of their blogs.  Okay, I will stop whining and get over it.  Well, I guess I gotta just buy the Roll Call kit then. Thanks for reading and have a great week! 

Jen at Pieces of Me is having a fun blog candy giveaway for achieving 250,000 hits!  Wow!  Cheryl & I have a ways to go.  Thought I'd procrastinate some and participate. Candy #1 is something pink.  My daughter's Hello Kitty sidekick which I use a lot too. Candy #2 is something round.  My double sided tape which I use a lot. Candy #3 is something I ate today.  I usually eat PB & J with half a banana every morning. Candy #4 is a plant.  My son's bean plant from school which is already starting to die. Candy #5 is my youngest child's dirty socks.  My younger son's dirty socks aren't as dirty as my older son's socks. Her blog candy ends today at 12 noon Hawaii time.  Thanks to Jen for giving away so much great stuff!  How super generous.  Hope you all get a chance to play and have a great weekend!
