3 year Blogversary Blog Candy!


(A peek at tomorrow's tutorial project--with one of the stamps from this blog candy)

Well friends, today is the ol' blogiversary
(funny since tomorrow is my anniversary anniversary!)

This post marks the 709th blog post in exactly 3 years.
Hard to believe it's been that many & crazy how the posts have changed
(from single paragraphs to lengthy blatherings, teehee.)

Here are the cards from my first blog post...
(back when my Mom & my Aunt Maggie were the
only ones who commented--Bless their souls!) :-D













To celebrate,
sweet Cathy ( of Paper Garden Projects fame)
has offered up some yummy blog candy!
Thank You Cathy!!!!



Just leave your name to win the goods!

& PRETTY PLEASE leave your email
so we can email for your address & Cathy can send it to you!

"you at email dot com" will help prevent spam

The Candy has these Goodies:

The Winter Wonderland Cling set (by my #1 long time fave Holly of Eat Cake Graphics)
And Snow Day Pals cling stamp (new & SO cute--Dogone it!)
Frosty fun Prism Cardstock Collection
& ribbon and yummy embellishment bits too! It'll be open until December 10th--Hope You win!

...and last but never least, Thank You all so much for visiting me! You make blogging the fabulous fun that it is & I'm so grateful and delighted to know you all!

  6. I love-y that stamp set so much! I can't believe it is only 709 posts...except they were really long posts so I think you should triple the number to make it a more accurate representation! (Those first creations are not at all "Mel-like"...)

  7. Truly, you must be a mind reader! Just this morning I was thinking about how you used to use these Eat Cake stamps...they are the cutest thing I've ever seen! I can't wait to see the tutorial. :)

    Congrats on your blogversary - your early cards give me hope!!! tee hee... here's to the next 3 years!

  171. 709 Amazing posts too~

    I always skim your posts first and look at the images --- then I go back and read. Well today I saw those cards and thought, "huh. Those look like regular cards. Wonder who she's telling us about here." Then I read that they were yours. Wow~ YOU did regular (awesome, but regular) work back then!

    So now I'm dancing around thinking... "There's hope for me, there's hope for me!" LOL

    Thank you for three wonderful years (even though I wasn't here for all of 'em)!

  196. Congratulations on your anniversary and 3 year blogaversary. I just love your blog, i have been subscribing for a while now, but actually found your blog about 18 months ago, and all i have to say is WOW.
    Like your self, i'm been ill for over a year now,and reading your blog and seeing your work has given me the inspiration to make cards for friends and family. i have just started selling them too. I would say i'm ADDICTED to your blog there is so much information about different techniques and all the stuff to make not just cards. Thank you, Thank you keep up the great work your doing for us Mel and hope your feeling better soon.
