A Happy Birthday to Me Blog Candy

Happy Birthday to me! Today is August 7th, and this Leo girl is celebrating by offering a fun and fabulous bit of blog candy to you! No rules, simply enter your name with a link to your blog using the InLinks tool below. If you would like to share this candy in your side bar that would be lovely AND you will be rewarded with a second entry for the candy! Just be sure to enter your name a second time and put "sidebar" after your name with a link to a different part of your blog such as a specific post or page. (I will be verifying all sidebar entries.)

What will you receive as the winner, you ask? Well, let me show you...

A $20 Gift Voucher to Tickled Pink Stamps

Spellbinders Shapeabilities Ribbon Banners

Sweet November Stamps Leo Zodiac
cling mount rubber stamp
from All That Scraps

Also, for every 10 new followers I get, I'll add another item to the candy. It could be flowers or bling or whatever other yummy crafty goodness strikes my fancy. I'll add the prizes to the post as we go.

Any guesses as to how old I am today? Leave me a comment and let me know how many candles you think there will be on my cake today. I made a card to share with you also.... It features the Leo zodiac image from Sweet November Stamps. All twelve signs are available in both rubber and digi formats. I have the digital versions, of course. You can purchase them, like I did, from All That Scraps. She was a lot of fun to color, but I have to say I'm not entirely happy with her hair... I still need practice on that technique, I fear. The papers are Basic Grey from my stash and the sketch is #81 over at The Pixie Cottage.

The candy will be open for two weeks. A winner will be selected by random draw on August 22nd. Good luck and thanks for sharing my special day with me!

I am giving away two fabulous gift vouchers worth $10 each. One is from Tickled Pink Stamps and the other is for Simon Says Stamp, and ONE lucky winner will receive both vouchers! The deadline to enter will be Friday, April 22nd. The prize will be awarded on Saturday, April 23rd and the voucher codes will be e-mailed to the winner. Here are the rules:

And now for my 100th post project.... Drum roll, please! As part of my Sassy Studio Designs design team duties, I host a bi-weekly challenge on our Paper Craft Planet group. You can find the group here. The current challenge is Shabby Chic, and the winner gets to chose two SSD digi images of their choice. I used this week's Fabulous Freebie Friday image, the lovely Victorian Beauty Photo Frame, for my creation. I like to call it "Sassy Chic". lol The inspiration for my layout came from Mojo Monday Week 186. It's a wonderful sketch and lent itself so well to my image and the look I was going for.


I hope you will enter my first ever blog candy giveaway and spread the word about my blog! I would love to see my followers increase by at least 20 this week. Can you help me do that? I know you can because I know the motivating power of free stuff! =)
