Ok, I know what you're thinking. A giveaway? But it's not even your tenth post, let alone your one hundredth.
But the thing is, I have really been enjoying being a part of the craft blogging community, and I have received such a warm welcome from everyone. And I just want to say:
to all of you. So I decided to do that with a giveaway. Here's a set of 10 thank you cards:
Hand stamped by me:
Each envelope has a flower detail:
And it's all tied up with a pretty pink ribbon:
To be entered in the giveaway, just leave a comment on this post and let me know something that you've been thankful for since you started blogging.
If you want to, feel free (but not obligated) to mention the giveaway on your blog with a link. Or, if you want to increase your own chances, better not mention it! I will do the drawing one week from today (so Thursday, March 27th) probably around 4 or 5 pm MN time.
Thank you all again so much for visiting my page, welcoming me warmly, and leaving me such sweet comments. This looks like the beginning of a long and wonderful friendship. :)
i'm not yet a blogger, but i relatively recently discovered knit and crafty blogs, and am thinking of starting my own. i am so thankful for all the knitting inspiration these ladies (and gentlemen) provide! (not to mention the tons of yummy cookie and goody recipes!)

You should start your own! It wasn't long after I discovered crafty blogs that I had to start one of my own. I just couldn't not do it! Let me know if you do start your own; it's so nice to have people visit when you're just getting started. :)
ReplyDeleteWow a give away. I started my Blog to try to get my stuff 'out there' and my little(?) tummy goes all wobbly when I look at the map and see just how far 'out there' my lttle bits and bobs have travelled. Feel a teeny bit insecure when I realise just how damn 'nice' the rest of you bloggers seem to be. Come on show your dark side!
ReplyDeleteoh what beautiful cards! I love the friendship and kindness that blogging gives, and the confidence it has given me in my craft stuff has been great, and I've learnt loads, found some fantastic pattterns and tips, and made some great friends. xx
ReplyDeleteSince I've been blogging I have been grateful when people visit and leave a comment. It can be lonely out in the blogosphere when you think you are talking to yourself!
ReplyDeletei don't have my own blog - yet! but i'm grateful for the inspiration i get from all those whose craft blogs i read! maybe after the wedding (next week!) and my honeymoon i'll be able to start my own craft blog!

ReplyDeleteMake sure to come back and let me know when you do start your blog.
thankful for - generousity of spirit in the craft'o'blog'o'sphere...in terms of both shared inspiration and lovely giveaways like yours
ReplyDeletei was thankful for a way to organize everything for my wedding. and it allowed for candid comments from very helpful ladies who already got married or were in the process of getting married too. i found it very helpful and developed a lot of great online relationships.
ReplyDeleteHi, I just followed driftwood's link to your new blog..I've been blogging for 6 months and have got so much inspiration from many wonderful blogs and enjoyed meeting so many lovely people in blogland who are so kind and actually show an interest in my daily happenings ~ it's a great feeling and lots of fun! Good luck with your new blog.. I've enjoyed reading your posts and the recipes are great! Regards, Gina
ReplyDeleteAiiii - they are gorgeous. Please may I join in?
ReplyDeleteLike you, I had to have my own blog pretty soon after discovering crafty blogland. The only delay was obsessing about a name!!
Hi again, they are just lovely cards.. I suppose I'm thankful that people are so friendly and no matter now daft you think a post is you always find someone who will tell you otherwise. Also the help I,ve been given so far when I haven't got a clue what to do or am stuck with something, someone like Driftwood comes along and clears it all up. I'll stop rambling now..:-)

Such pretty cards! I'd love to enter your giveaway if I can. Something I've been thankful for is the people I've met, both online and in person, since I started blogging. I know, it's boring and unoriginal, but there it is!
ReplyDeleteHello- I've come a-visiting from the lovely Driftwoods' blog. I am quite envious of your lovely craft afternoons, especially with homemade ice cream- how decadent are you?!
ReplyDeleteI have met some wonderful people from all over the world through my blog- how else could you do that? Its great to know that there are so many like minded, interesting people out there who are all slightly mad just like me...best of luck with your blog- you'll be addicted before you know it x
Hiya, the biggest thing I have been thankful for since I started blogging is meeting people who just get waht I do. For example, I love quiltings but most of the quilters I meet in the flesh are old ladies. They are lovely people, but it is good to know I am not the only 30 year old out there who likes quilting!
ReplyDeleteI don't need to be in the giveaway, but I just wanted to say I SOOO love the name of your blog! Keep up the blogging, yours is lovely :D
ReplyDeleteYour cards are beautiful. I am thankful for all the new friends I have made over the last 6 months, it warms my heart that there are so many beautiful creative people out there. And I am getting to know some of them :)
ReplyDeleteNot sure if this is open to Canadians but if so I would love to be entered in your draw

Hi there - Like you, I have only been blogging for a short while, but the one thing I am thankful for is that blogging has restored my faith in human nature - that there are people out there who will take time out of their day to read what I have to say and leave kind comments - that, and all the inspiration out there - since I started blogging my brain is brimming over with ideas of things I want to make and projects I want to start. Love your cards by the way - Natalie x
ReplyDeleteI am a new blogger too! Yours is coming along nicely. I am still a little nervous about it, it was stewing in my head for a while before I actually started it.
ReplyDeleteI have a give away on my blog right now too. I have totally enjoyed your blog and bookmarked it too!
