today is my blog-aversary

Happy one year of blogging to me! I never imagined how much fun could be had blogging and had no idea anyone would want to read about my life and my creative endeavors. Thanks to everyone who has visited, left a comment, and inspired me by your beautiful blogs and artwork.

As promised I did the blog candy drawing today, actually Kyle picked a number from 1-16, which is how many non-spam comments were left. He picked #9. Ally please send me an email with your mailing addy and I'll get the goodies in the mail tomorrow. My email addy is in my profile. Thanks to everyone who linked up Ethel's auction blog. The bidding is still open if you'd like to join in. The current highest bid for all 5 Longaberger baskets is $175, and all monies go to the Susan G. Komen race for the cure.

Thanks everyone for joining me on this crazy blog journey. I can't wait to see what the next year holds.

blog candy for the cure

I'm offering up these newly released goodies for a good cause. I need your help to spread the word about some wonderful friends who are doing their part to find a cure for breast cancer.

My friend Teresa is walking in the 3 day race for the cure and my friend Ethel is hosting a silent auction of longaberger baskets to help her raise money. Our friend Lesa is in a fierce battle with breast cancer, and is an inspiration to all of us.

If you'd like to be in the drawing for this blog candy, link up Ethel's auction blog wherever you visit. It can be on your blog, or to a message board you visit, or I'll even accept that you emailed some friends. You do not need to make a bid in order to win this blog candy, you just need to help us spread the word. I'll put your name in the drawing a second time if you also make a direct donation to Teresa's page for the 3 day walk. No amount is too small. We can all make a difference.

Please leave a comment on this post to let me know what you did to help support the race for the cure . I will leave this open until my blog-aversary on April 15 when I will draw for the prize.
