Lets Celebrate World Card Making Day


Just for this month I am going to do things a little differently with my monthly blog candy. So I can share more prizes around and really celebrate World Card Making day. Instead of having just my one monthly prize there will be several small prizes given out to celebrate this special day. I am not attatching photo's of the prizes as the contents are meant to be a surprise but if you want to take a photo of what you have won and attatch it to your blog that would be fantastic and greatly appreciated. For anyone who wins please email me through the icon on the right, my husband only just created this for me.
For anyone who doesn't win this time there will be many more giveaways.
Hope all you lovely people enjoy World Card Making Day and get lots of cards done :)
***OK, I am editing this post yet again, I will be giving out a few more prizes, this is all so much fun. For anyone who becomes a follower and makes a comment in the next two days will go into a draw to win the last 8 prizes. If I reach 80 followers I will add three extra prizes, making it a total of 20 prizes given out to celebrate WCMD. Sorry there are no photos of my blog candy, I can assure you though that any cardmaker or scrapbooker will have fun with the small packages I am giving out. If you become a follower you have two extra chances of winning, I fully admit I would like to reach 100 followers one day. If you are already a follower to get two extra chances of winning just make mention of my giveaway on your blog and leave a comment to let me know that you have done so. I will be announcing the last few winners at 8pm on Monday , Sydney time***
***04.10.2009-Its the morning after WCMD and I am suffering from a card hangover but I will make it through this day as Parramatta is playing and I have to see them win, there is no way they are going to loose. Ok, what I have decided to do is since I have nearly reached 80 followers , I have one more person to go to reach 80. I will be extending the celebrations till Sunday 18.10.2009 to try and reach 100 followers, I will be giving out five more prizes if I reach this goal, thats a total of 25 prizes. Good luck everyone, looking so forward to having more of you lovely bloggers on board.***
***05.10.2009-thankyou, thankyou, thankyou everyone for your support in regards to my comp, I have to admit I am having lots of fun with this all. Thanks to Dragon Lady I now have 80 followers, hope you will all stick around for a while :). As I said there will be five more prizes drawn on 18.10.2009 if I reach 100***
***09.10.2009-another big thankyou to everyone who has joined up since the 5th, I now have 86 followers. I so love having you all on my blog and look forward to the prize draw on the 18th. On the weekend I intend checking out all your blogs properly and will definitely leave some comments but for now I am off to work***
***11.10.2009-OMG, 96 followers, just four more to go, will I get to 100 by 18.10.2009?, so close but yet so far. I might just throw in something extra if I reach 100, this time next week it will all be disclosed***
***14.10.2009-I am so happy to have 97 new friends on my blog now, hope you all stick around for a while. All the fun of this comp comes to an end on 18.10.2009, I need just three more followers to give out 25 prizes , thanks again everyone for joining up, this is all just too much fun***
***16.10.2009-As they say nothing good comes easily. For a while I had 98 followers and now I have 97. Its all good I am still looking forward to announcing the winners on 18.10.2009. I may not reach 100 followers and if I don't I will still be giving out 22 prizes and leave the three other prizes for another time. ***Thanks again everyone who has joined up, I really appreciate having you all here,stay posted for the winners on Sunday***
***18.10.2009-Today is a big day for me as I get to announce the winners for this months special monthly comp. I will be doing this when I get home later this evening. THANKS everyone for being so enthusiastic about this months comp, I had so much fun with it all and I can't wait to announce the winners***
AND THE WINNERS SO FAR ARE.....
1st and 2nd prize
This prize is a small thankyou prize I am giving out to two lovely ladies who visit my blog regularly and always make me feel great about creating. They both have some truly amazing work on their blogs so make sure to pay them a visit.

3rd prize
Ok its time for a second prize. This time I am giving it out for enthusiasm for crafting. This lovely lady is so active in so many different challenges and I love her work, we all call her the challenge queen. I am now lucky enough to be on two of the same DT's as her.

4th prize
I have just woken up and decided its time for another prize. I am having so much fun with this. This time I have decided to give out a prize to welcome my latest follower who only joined yesterday. Jennifer just came across my blog yesterday and decided to become a follower, so very happy to have her on board.
Jennifer B

5th prize
The fourth prize I am giving out today is to someone who has inspired me greatly as a blogger. When I first really started getting into blogging I came across her fantastic site and started entering all her wonderful colour challenges, she also gave me the opportunity to be a guest designer on SPCC's awesome DT. Samantha keeps on going no matter what happens healthwise and that to me is just amazing.
Samantha, the Scrapmaster

6th prize
As you can tell I am thinking up these prizes as I go along, its all so much fun. The next prize I am giving out is to the first person who became a follower on my blog. Before she became a follower I really didn't pay too much attention to this function on my blog but now its great to see all the lovely people who have joined my blog. I really appreciate your ongoing support, you all make me want to create more and more.
Sammye Jo

7th prize
I have to start getting ready now but before I do I just want to announce another prize. This lady just amazes me, she has only just started up Sketchy Thursdays and with her and Heidi's hard work the site is already doing so well, once I start scrapbooking again I will enter more of their fantastic weekly challenges. I am also really happy to be designing with her at "If the shoe fits...scrap it!"
Diana

8th prize
Its time for my next prize. This time I have decided to give a prize to Stacy, she is always telling us about some great blog giveaways so I thought I would give her a prize for keeping us all so well informed. I first came across Stacy's work at SPCC and I am always blown away by her fantastic creations.
Stacy

I am off to dinner now to celebrate my parent's wedding anniversary. Looking forward to getting some emails with addresses so I can post your gifts to you all. There will be a few more prizes awarded shortly, stay posted.

9th prize
Ok so I am back from dinner with my parents, we had a really nice evening. Had way too much to eat but its all good. I am extremely excited as tomorrow is a huge final and ofcourse Parramatta is going to win, they just have to. Now onto my next prize I have decided to give this to to Sharon. I am always amazed with the amount of effort Sharon puts into sharing her life with us and ofcourse her amazing scrapbooking. I have a feeling she may be a Storm supporter as she lives in Melbourne, I won't hold this against her :) :)
Sharon

CreativeMe68 said...

Hey Suz, gotta set the record straight here....I live in Nth Qld, I don't really support any team as far as footy is concerned...Unless of course they play for Australia.
I wondered when reading this post if you were actually talking about me, then I clicked on the link. Then the link came up with my blog and I knew you were talking about me and my amazing scrapbooking???
It is something that I really struggle with the confidence to believe in my ability as a scrapbooker. When I scrap I put my heart and soul into my LO's....
I love it(it challenges me) and I want to share my stories and photography with all of my friends and family and to all my online followers and their friends. I am so glad that you enjoy visiting my blog and being amazed!!! Thank you for this surprise...Can't wait to see what you are sending me! Luv Shaz xoxo

CreativeMe68 said...

Hello again...hopefully my blog will send some followers your way!!! Check out my plug for you, Luv Shaz xoxo

Rhonda Miller said...

Leah l'Orange said...
