That is adorable! We use to have a boyds bear in Pigeon Forge but it closed up. We went their a couple times and adopted bears! It was fun. I have not scrapped these pages yet, so this would be perfect! Thanks for the chance to win this. I am not sure what I am suppose to write. Your page says "Leave a comment on this post telling me
I will draw a winner on Friday March 13.
For extra entries" So am I suppose to put "you will draw a winner on Friday March 13th?" Good luck to all!

Designs by Steppie Name Her Painting Contest

Isn't this painting FREAKIN' beautiful?!?! I LOVE it!!  First of all it's my three favorite colors, green, blue, and yellow.  Plus...hello BIRDS!!!! AHH..would this not look freakin' awesome on my inspiration wall in my craft (bird themed) room?!?  Anyways..  I wanted to show you guys this painting made by steppie.  She's having a giveaway on her blog where if you name this painting you win tons of prizes not to mention a print of this artwork. oh my..i just can't put into words how much i love this thing..  The thing is I know all my readers are super creative and as much as I would hate for you guys to go over to her blog and win this giveaway (because i REALLY want it) i'd still be proud to know that I passed on the word to ya.  So please stop by steppie's blog and leave a comment on her Name My Painting Contest... I mean..if you win you could always give the print to me as a gift...right? ;o)

Oh, and if you are new to Designs by Steppie, check out her etsy shop.  She has some super cute stuff.

And...incase you were wondering...when I saw this my first thought was Peace.  I have no idea why.. maybe the birds  flying away, the colors...I don't know...but as soon as I saw it the first name I came up with was Peace.  Then "Fly Away" and "Fly Away Home."  So hopefully one of those three win!

Check out Hot Butter

isn't this freakin' cute? it is created by Hot Butter.  You can go to her blog and she has 5 of these up for grabs on a giveaway.  this one is my fave.

p.s. don't like any of them? thats okay..leave a comment and if you win give it to me. haha

Also, posts will be slim this weekend.  I'll be at my cousins ball game tonight and tomorrow and they are both out of town like 2 hour drives and then sunday is football.  I have some bad news to tell all of you but i'm just not ready to talk about it right now.  I'll try and post about it on monday.  Everyone have a good weekend.

Win a Copy of The Green Bride Guide

The owner of earthlyaffair.com is having a contest on her blog, Earth Friendly Weddings, for a copy of The Green Bride Guide. I am so jealous of this book. I had to search online for about 9 months coming up with all kinds of ideas and questions to ask and this book saves you so much time. Go to her blog and watch the 1 minute video she made where she's telling you about the book. If you or someone you know is getting married this book would be a really good book to have...especially if you are wanting to have an all green wedding. And who knows...even if your not...maybe if you read this book and realize how many things you can do to help the environment out on your day you say "i do"... you might just change your mind.

and the winner is. . .

The giveaway is closed. (yes i know..i'm late...i was busy hanging up christmas lights yesterday.. yes i know its only november 20...anyways...) There were 10 entries. I had my beautiful model dog Lacey help me pick a winner. I shook the cup up and sat it on the floor for her to pick a winner. She stuck her cute little nose and and pulled out the lucky winner..
