Feels Like Forever...

...Since I have posted.

Wow, I have gone almost all month without posting. I think it is my longest ever time. This summer has been totally crazy.

Anyway, I noticed I have reached 200, 000 hits recently. Unfortunately I missed the exact day.

I would like to celebrate and what better way to celebrate than with a give a way!
I Recently did a class and had one participant cancel at the last minute. SO I have an extra kit. I will assemble the kit and then mail it to the winner.

It is a purse mini, the inspiration came from the one Laura made on Following the Paper Trail. I will post pics after I get it assembled.

SO leave a comment for a chance to win. I will close the offer at the 3rd of the month of August at midnight. The drawing will take place the following day on August 4th.

Thanks,

And the Winner is...

Hi Ladies,

Blog A Versary winner!

Hi ladies,

I have a winner. I did a YouTube video for the draw, showing the items for the giveaway and had my son draw a name from the basket, but my laptop is giving me some tecnical issues, so until I can get a hold of my older son to help me get it figured out, you are gonna have to wait just a bit longer to see and hear who the winner is.

Thanks,

Today I am adding to my Blog-a-versary blog candy ....

A Tim Holtz movers and shapers Keyhole die

Hi Ladies,

Today I am adding all three of my BINGO card PDF ephemera, to my blog a versary blog candy. That is three seperate files, the two that are for sale and a bonus sheet!
So that is a total of 12 different BINGO cards in addition to the items from yesterday's post. So don't forget to leave a comment.

Thanks,

Happy Blog-A-Versary!

It is my blogaversary, well actually yesterday was, but I was away all day.

Last year just before my first year in blogsville, I hit 25,000 hits. I set a goal of 300,000 for this year. I did not reach it, but I am far from disappointed as I did reach over 185,000. That is amazing!
Thank you all so much for making my blog as successful as it is. I know I am not the most regular poster, but I do try to have a nice variety of items, from card to minis to 3D items, free tutorials and tutorials for sale. I try to keep my posts about papercrafting. I appreciate every comment that has been left, I know it takes extra time to leave a comment, but I read every one and they always put a smile on my face. I am also grateful cause I know someone took the time to leave it.
I have expanded my ways to share this passion with all of you through YouTube and recently through Ustream. My Channel for both is NsSnowAngel. I do not always post my videos from Youtube here, so if you like seeing my work you may also wish to check out my channel there. I do occasionally put up videos there that are not papercrafting related. My Ustream show started out as occasional shows but I now have a regular time on Monday Evening 9 pm eastern standard time.
Anyways, getting on to the good stuff...
Last year I gave a blog candy away of free tutorials for a year. That winner received over 18 free tutorials. I hope you enjoyed them Chrissy!

This year I am going to give a way a surprise gift to someone. I will add things to this list all week. At the end of the week, on next Monday evening I will draw a winner from anyone who leaves a comment here until then.

The items so far are...

Monday
Ivory Flower Soft
1 package of my handmade paper flowers
Tuesday
PDF ephemera Bingo Cards-all 3
Wednesday
Tim Holtz movers and shapers Keyhole die


Thanks,

Blog Candy update!

Hello Everyone,

Did you think I forgot about my celebration give away for reaching 100,000 hits?

Well, I didn't. This is just a terrible busy time of year, as I am sure you all know. The stamp set arrived a couple of days ago, but I hadn't finished the mini as yet. I had a class today and have a class to teach tomorrow, and have finished the mini this evening. I will try to do a video of the mini tomorrow after I get back from my class. Then I will also do a video drawing for the winner. I will plan to post tomorrow evening on YouTube.
Soooooo...if you want a chance to win this you still have until tomorrow evening to leave a comment here.
The mini is a Christmas mini and I only made one, but I may make a duplicate before I mail it out, as I always like having a copy to have on hand for display.
Thanks again for helping make this blog a success! I am grateful to you all.

Thanks,

I Won!

I was checking my e-mail before bed and got a great one. Apparently I won some fun blog candy.
Twila, over at Stamp A Little Longer, had a jar full of ribbon and asked people to guess how much was in the jar, now mind you it does not look like it but the jar had 120 feet of ribbon in it! You can see the jar here. Does it look like 120 feet to you? Anyway I guessed 76, thinking it was probably more than it looked and it was...even more than I thought. LOL. I checked and I guessed the highest amount so, yay me!
Thank you Twila, I can hardly wait to get it and check out all that fun ribbon.

Thanks,

Wow!

I logged in today and to my surprise, I was over 100,000 hits. I knew I was getting close but I thought it would not be until December.

Thank you so much for all of you who visit this blog, follow this blog, take my classes and especially to those who take the time to leave kind words.

I will be offering some blog candy to celebrate, I also noticed I almost have 100 followers. Hmmm should I wait for the one more so it can be a double celebration? Come on ... One more person sign up as a follower...please! LOL

I know one thing I will be giving away, it will be the Level 2 Hostess set from Stampin Up..."Christmas Punch" this is a very fun and versatile set. I love mine. The one for the blog candy is on it's way but not here yet. Within a week, I think.
I think I will also create a mini for the winner. I may edit this to add some more fun things.

Sound like fun? then leave some love...just post a comment below and the day my stamp set arrives, I will hopefully have the mini done my then and can post a picture. The end of that day will end the running for the blog candy.

I am thankful to you all.

This candy is now closed. The winner will be posted shortly.

Thanks,

Blog-A Versary Blog Candy

Good Morning,

It has been a great year on this Blog. I am so grateful for all of the visitors I have had, all the followers I do have, and for all the wonderful comments that have been left over the past year. To celebrate I want to offer some Blog Candy. In celebrating, I would like to increase my Blog's exposure. I have reached 25 000 hits before the year was up and to me that is incredible, but I have made a goal to hit 300 000 for my second year and I will need your help to reach it.

In the past I have a few responses to my blog candy offers and I have noticed that some blogs have hundreds of responses to blog candy offers. So, I want to get my best response ever, and I need your help to do it. In order to have a chance at this blog candy, you need to leave any response to this post, then you need to post my offering on your blog with a link back to my blog candy offer. If you are not already a follower of my blog, you need to sign up as a follower. There are currently 12 followers. If you already are a follower but do the other steps your name will be included. I must have a way to contact you (as some people who leave comments or who are followers do not have any contact info).

So are you ready to know what the Blog Candy is?

I am offering....

My newest tutorial for the Carousel Trinket Box for free ( if you already purchased it, I will give you a refund)
plus a free subscription to any other tutorials I create until my next Blog-a versary.

Sound worthwhile?
if so, let the comments begin.

Hi Tammy! And congrats on your milestone. I can only hope that I see more traffic on my blog(s). As to the posts on your blog, I think you cover a lot of different things. I wouldn't change a thing about that.JuliePS: My mom recently got into "Stampin Up" and is loving it. It has replaced her hobby of crochet (as she can no longer do that due to arthritis).

Julie could you please get me your snail mail addy ASAP. You can send it to me at tammybeaver@eastlink.ca I will be on vacation for a week and will mail it to you when I return. If I do not have your address by then I will use Ranom.org to select another winner.

Thanks so much,
