Giveaways are fun! I enter a lot of giveaways and I mean A LOT!!! No, I do not always win them. I do not win giveaways MORE than I win them! This last one had a little bit of a twist. The generous giveaway-ER decided to give the prize away to each person who commented! In that way I am very lucky, because I just so happened to be one of the 5 people who happened to comment on Fairiebees' blog the day she happened to post a giveaway.
~*~
Wanna see what I won???
It was this pretty little tatted confection, here!
This isn't just any snowflake giveaway.
The winners get a new snowflake EACH month!
So by next Christmas I will have a
DOZEN tatted snowflakes!!!
She is a very crafty blogger with a green thumb.
I hope you find the time to visit her someday soon!
She says that her first snowflakes are on their way
to the winners right now!
Yippeeeeee!!!!
I'm so excited.

Go see!

Thank you for stopping by to see my giveaway giftee and new award. I'd love to hear from you! I read each and every comment and they mean a lot! I cannot tell you how much blogging has blessed my life! When I started this blog last March I thought I would be lucky to have 10 people look at my blog...and yes, I still think that's lucky, but I have been MORE than lucky! I have been blessed with meeting so many fabulous bloggers who have brightened my days! 2008 has been a year of struggle and trial for me and I won't go into details about it, but I do want to thank you for being my "friends" during a very difficult year!
BIG (((HUGS))) to all of you!!!
Sincerely,
Sincerely,
