Good morning to all my sweet Blogging Friends! Today is the day that I start my 1 Year Blog Anniversary and 400 plus follower Giveaway, YIPPEE!! My Anniversary was actually March 10th, so I'm a little late, but like they always say, better late than never, lol :)
I remember being a bit scared to start a blog...would anyone be interested in what I talk about or show? Would anyone want to even follow me? So I am tremendously overwhelmed and humbled to have so many of you stop by my blog and leave such sweet and wonderful comments, and to have over 400 of you sweet ladies (and guys) choose to follow along. THANK YOU all from the bottom of my heart!! You have no idea how much this means to me...I am so blessed to be able to meet so many wonderful and talented and sweet people here in Blogland :)
So, to honor this wonderful occasion, I am having a Giveaway, and one lucky fellow blogger will have the opportunity to win one of my custom embellished washcloths, a sweet vintage glass shaker, and from my personal collection, one of Rhonda's beautiful faux cakes ('cuz ya gotta have cake for a celebration, lol ) and a vintage Limoges saucer/plate to display it on. Plus I will be adding a couple of little surprises too :)
The display washcloth is made with a 100% cotton crisp white washcloth, and embellished with pretty pink and rosey prints, rose patterned lace trim, vintage DF pink Ribbon, and pretty vintage eyelet lace trim. It measures 13" wide by 15 1/2" long, including the ruffle.
Vintage 6" glass shaker, which I painted the top a pretty pink, added pink ribbon and pretty pink rosey posey :)
The yummy looking faux chocolate cake with pink frosting, and embellished with handmade roses and leaves, made by sweet Rhonda. She sells her sweet faux treats both on Ebay and she has her own website...Click HERE to go to her Ebay, and click HERE to take you to her website.
And here is the sweet little Vintage Limoges saucer, with it's pretty little pink roses & fluers.
The Giveaway starts today, March 16th, and will run until April 6th, so that gives you 3 weeks to enter. You will have 3 chances to be entered for the Giveaway, and they are as follows:
1.) Leave a comment here AT THIS POST for 1 chance to be entered.
2.) Become a follower of my blog, and leave a comment at this post telling me you are a new follower, or, if you already are one of my sweet followers, then leave a comment here letting me know, for a 2nd chance to be entered.
3.) Grab my Giveaway button/pic and do a post about it, or place it on your sidebar with it LINKED BACK TO THIS POST, to help spread the word, and come back to this post letting me know, for a 3rd chance to be entered.
The winner will be chosen from one of the comments left on this post. So start leaving those comments everyone :)
I will be announcing the winner a couple of days or so after April 6th. Good luck ladies!

I understand you have many followers because they do price for what I give you my most sincere congratulations. I understand that it's hard for me to join your lottery because unfortunately we are far away, but wanted to leave my comment.
From here I invite you to go through my blog, does very little that I did and I understand that fear you speak of when they started, but I am satisfied by the reception given.
Do not you get tired more congratulations on your wonders.
