And the WINNER is....

Good morning everyone and Happy Manic Monday!  After what seemed like a LOOONNNGGG spring break, the kiddos are back in school!  Unfortunate for me, this means LOTS of cleaning today in order to get this house into pre-spring break clean.  Speaking of spring, it looks like we'll be getting a taste of it here in Fort Worth, TX with severe storms rolling in in just a few hours and lasting through Wednesday.  They have already issued flash flood warnings around the area and are also talking about strong winds, hail, and possible tornadoes.  So... we shall brace ourselves for the next couple of days and I will be sure to take advantage of the wet weather and hopefully get MUCH scrappin' done!

Well, it is FINALLY time to announce the winner of my One Year Blogaversary GiVeAwAy!!!  I would like to thank ALL of you who entered and became followers of my blog as well as fans of my Facebook fan page!  You are ALL an inspiration to me with your crafty creations.  I have been browsing your blogs and am just in awe with a lot of the work I have come across.  Just absolutely BEAUTIFUL!  Sooooo.... here we go.... the WINNER of my GiVeAwAy and new owner of LOTS of FABULOUS crafty goodies is.....

One Year Blogiversary {with a BIG giveaway}!!!

Hello friends!  I have just celebrated two milestones within the last couple of weeks... one being a MAJOR one!  I celebrated my Birthday on the 22nd as well as my ONE YEAR BLOGIVERSARY on the 17th!!!  It has been one year and 128 posts since I joined this FABULOUS world of crafting and blogging... and I could not have reached this milestone without all of YOU... my WONDERFUL readers & crafty friends!  I still cannot believe that it has been just one year since I crafted my first card ever and started blogging!  

For those of you that don't know, this ALL began with my dear hubby purchasing me a Cricut Expression for Christmas 2010.  I had NEVER crafted a thing in my life before that!  I remember sitting there for a few days just staring at the machine, thinking "Okay, now what?".  It wasn't long before I got my Cricut up and running... thanks to Google and all of YOUR fabulous blogs!  I ventured into a hobby that I can't believe I lived without for so long!  I have been hooked since day one... the day I discovered My Pink Stampers tutorial videos. :)  And I must say, it has been an AMAZING journey ever since!  I have learned a PLETHORA of tips and techniques... from cardmaking to scrapbooking, tag making, ATCs, and so forth!  I now own a REDONKULOUS amount of crafty supplies and also have my very own craft room!!!! :)

Crafting and cardmaking has been more than just a hobby for me this past year.  It has been THERAPY!  It has gotten me through good times and bad.  It has become my stress reliever, my 'go to' when I am having a bad day and am down in the dumps.  

So... to extend this celebration with all of YOU... I am having a ONE YEAR BLOGIVERSARY GiVeAwAy!!!!  That's right.... it's time to give away some AWESOME goodies!  And since this is such a huge milestone for me, I'd like to make this GiVeAwAy EXTRA special and easy peasy!

All you have to do is become a follower, 'like' my Facebook Page and leave a comment below this post letting me know that you have done so!  If you are already a follower and a fan of my Facebook Page, just leave a comment stating that you are!  Like I said... EaSy PeAsY!  Also, if you happen to have an extra minute or two to spare, please spread the word to your friends and family on your blog or Facebook!  This is not required, but will be greatly appreciated! :)  

The GiVeAwAy will close on Sunday, March 18th at midnight with the WINNER being announce on Monday, March 19th!  Again, I am so blessed to be able to celebrate with all of YOU!

Here is ALL that the WINNER will receive...
