Once a Month [Old Stuff] GiveAway



Thanks so much for all of your comments throughout the month!
I love reading them and think it's so fun to share together!
I appreciate each of you taking the time to stop by and visit!

Soooooo – I know I’ve been a little lax about the ‘ole Once a Month [old stuff] Giveaway lately truth is I haven’t been scrapping as much as I have in years past so it takes me a bit longer to fill up the box [and the stash leftover from our kit club days has dwindled down as well.] Maybe it should be re-named the Once [ever few] Month[s] Giveaway – lol - NOT YET!!

Truth is – I live a very [cRaZy] busy and blessed life. As I’ve already shared – I’ve traveled more days this month than I’ve been home and already every weekend in October is full of fun plans!

And as result, I’ve neglected parts of the blog – but I’m trying to get back on track!

Don’t worry Kristen – I have your box ready and on its way!!

I must admit that I miss interacting with each of you so I’m changing things up once again! Starting this month – I will again randomly choose the OMGiveaway winner from the comments on THIS post.

And I’ll take the time to comment on comments, if you will – something I’ve so enjoyed in the past, but have [also] neglected these last few months – So bare with me as I ramble on – First off – THANK YOU to all of you had such sweet comments on my Summer of Color Projects [and a GREAT BIG THANK YOU to Kristen for hosting this summer fun event!!] It was a blast and kept me crafting throughout the summer months! Michelle Rayburn, thanks for the comment and the how-to’s of the plastic peony – you know I love your blog [so much!] And Gloria, my friend, I sooo agree with you! TWO seasons would be perfect! Spring and Fall – lol. And a friend here in town said my hair looked more ‘golden wheat’ than red – lol – you might be able to see it in the Fiskateer photos.

LindainNCToo – yep, Craig and I really do enjoy doing things together. But as we've become empty-nesters we have branched out into some separate activities as well. I love how we work together on a common goal [like the new and improved vendor display I’ll show you guys soon – so fun to see both of our ideas meld into one.] You know you're in my prayers!!

Marianne [fiskateer #6701] – I had no idea when I did the fiskateer survey that I’d actually get the punch if they chose my name – SO FUN! I think they go with the name that they hear the most because someone else also got the double-bubble punch… and as of right now I think we’re in the glider ‘admire’ not ‘acquire’ stage of life – lol. We’re so very happy to have the wedding ring pattern – it just completes our ‘collection.’

Ahh, Bernice – I almost went to panera again this week. That mozzarella - basil - tomato paninni [sp?] is calling my name!Maybe you’ll try one when you’re back in the states!

LinhC [it was so nice meeting you!!!] – thanks for the comment on the printer’s tray – I just measured and cut up photos of flowers in our yard and pushed them into the little sections. I’m thinking of changing it up a bit to make it a little more full family memories – I’ll post photos if I do.

And NOW: The winner of this month's OMGiveaway is Gloria!!

[I know I should have it – but send me your snail-mail address: Judy@faithabsedpages.com and I’ll get a box in the mail to you!]

And remember that the NEXT winner will be chosen from COMMENTS ON THIS POST.

So comment away on any of the posts from the last month!

Deadline to leave a comment: September 30th

Check back with me at the end of October to see if you won!

[I’m pretty sure there’ll be some extra-special things in THAT box.]

And I look forward to getting together and ‘talking’ with each of you then!

Wow, my friend, I know you've been busy, but reading about it all makes me tired :) Love the idea of a give=a=way and I just might have to try it myself, to generate traffic! Hope to see you this Friday and hopefully you'll see your way out on Saturday as well!
Hugs.

I came over from your Fiskateer invite and am so glad I did. What a fun, interesting and warm friendly blog you have. I loved seeing of Fiskateers the pics of the Alabama US of F. How fun that you were there too! I am looking forward to ours in WI. Do you/your family really know Gallager?!? Congrats on naming a punch! Thanks for the Once a month RAK. I would be honored to give your left overs a home! Hope you have a nice October.

Hi! I'm glad you weren't so busy that you didn't have a chance to post - I had to smile about the sock monkey that you bought for your puppy's wardrobe :)

Thanks for sharing your US of Fiskateer photos! Very cool that they let us fiskateers help with the naming and design of their products!
