My blog is called "Creative Smiles" because my designs are the result of incorporating mistakes. With fumble fingers that drop whatever they are holding - repeatedly, it takes a lot of giggles, smiles and creative patience during my crafting process. xx

December Blog Candy Winner! And new Candy

Hi!
Thanks for leaving a comment for the blog candy.

Those who left comments can see their names here.

The prize is:

The chance to win a $25 gift certificate valid at the Sparkle-n-Sprinkle on-line store 
or at their booth in one of their many Shows throughout the year.
Sparkle N Sprinkle sells many fine art products, rubber stamps and digital images.


Now, Mr. Random Dot Org has made his selection:


And the winner is:
Becky Partan of My Stamping Adventures 

Looking forward to sending this to your loving home.
Please contact me with email address.

And now...

for my next blog candy.

The candy is for my regular followers:

Tonic Studios #224 Birds on a Branch and Bird & Birdhouse Dies:



Sorry for the glare in the photos - it's still in the plastic.
If someone from out of the country wins, I'll remove the plastic because it changes the postage from $9.50 US to a more manageable $2.00 US. Just warning LOL

So please leave a comment to be eligible!

The drawing will be on February 28, 2017, 
or 
when my Google Friend Connect reaches 415
or
when my my Bloglovin' Reader reaches 150

(giggle - is that enough options?)

Please leave a comment below if interested.

sweet Florida Sunshine hugs,

Congratulations to the winner. And, you are so generous to give another awesome prize. And, I did not know that the removal of the plastic would make such a difference in postage. That is good to know.

Thank you so much, Donna, for the blog candy. I am honored to be the recipient. I don't subscribe to many blogs, because of time constraints, but I love your blog because of all the tips you give and your gorgeous cards. Again, thanks for the gift certificate, and good luck to everyone who enters for the dies giveaway.

Hi, Donna! I'm back online after a week of computer troubles! Thank you for your generous candy! I would love to win! Wishing you all the best over the holidays and into 2017!

Congrats to the lucky winner and thank you for another great giveaway Donna! I hope you're staying warmer than I am right now. It's cold and rainy and windy, which makes for an uninviting day. However, it is the perfect day for crafting, and that's what I'm doing! Have a merry merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Pamellia said...

Hello Donna: Hope you are having a wonderful Holiday season. My family and I did something different this year-there was 12 of us and we went on a cruise last Thursday out of Jacksonville and came back Monday the 26th. It was a blast. I redid my craft room "shabby chic" with chalk painted furniture and finally got super organized....loving that. In fact I loved it so much I redid my dining room and the furniture shabby chic. What a beautiful facelift/makeover. It looks like I will be doing the furniture in my formal living room and my foyer this year to coordinate. Wishing you the Happiest of New Year's!
Bear Hugs,
Carol
P.S. I am going to be a grandma in May!!!

What a great prize.
Congrats to the winner

What a lovely candy. Totally understand about cutting the weight. I had made a lot of light weight Christmas cards this year (or last year actually, as we are 2017 now). Those a bit heavier costed almost the double to send. So this year there'll be even more light weight cards, that's for sure...

April said...

Congrats to Becky! The dies are wonderful and thanks for the opportunity to win! Happy New Year!
