Cricut Card Fairy Flight

Welcome to the THANKFUL Cricut Card Fairy Flight. This month we are practicing being thankful for all the blessings in our lives. What are you thankful for?

I am thankful for the parents of my daughters-in-love.  Without the upbringing

that they each had, with their unique experiences, they would not be the 

perfect wives, that they are for my sons,! 

I've done over 300 missions with the Cricut Card Fairies and we are currently near 700 missions.  That's 300 volunteer missions created and sent.  600 prayers offered.  Many, many fairy friends and the chance to be part of something bigger than myself.

I am giving away a Christmas Seasonal Cartridge, if you are my winner you will have a choice of - Trim The Tree, Gingerbread Men or Winter Lace.  Since I am in Italy, I will have it sent directly to you from Custom Crops so hopefully your choice is in stock! :0)

My card inspiration is a simple Hot Chocolate pouch for which there are tutorials of all kinds on Youtube or SplitCoastStampers.  Mine is just one style of the many many out there.  This also completes my 2010 New Year's Resolution to try 12 different kind of folds for cards.

Joys of the Season and George and Basic Shapes Cartridges

My question for the hop is:  What part of the Thanksgiving meal is your favorite?

Mine would be the plate! Ha!  Gotta try a bite of everything and can't without a decent plate to put it on! 

Just answer the question as a comment in this post, that's all you have to do.  I'd love it if you became a follower, but it is not required.

If you'd like to join the fairies on our missions, please email our card commander or visit us on the Cricut Message boards here.  To win the Hello Kitty Cartridge Grand Prize, you must comment at every blog along the way.  Winners will be announced on Monday, Nov 22nd.

 Happy Thanksgiving!

Gift for my followers - Giveaway!!

I had planned to do this when I got to 100 followers and then time flew by.  Now I have 128.  So, I'm going to give away a $28 gift certificate to Custom Crops.  If I get to 150 before the drawing, I will make it a $50 gift certificate.  If I make it to 200, I will make it a $100 gift certificate. 

I'm so grateful for the people who come here and leave sweet comments and encourage me in my art. 

T H A N K   Y O U  all of my followers! 

If you are not a follower then follow along.  it's the only requirement.  If you are already a follower you get an automatic entry, you don't have to do anything else, it is just my thank you. If you advertise this post and leave me a comment with the link to find it, I will enter you twice.

This drawing will take place on July 4th at 9:00 am (Italy time).  My celebration of our homeland's Independence.  Oh how I miss the good ole' USA!

Blog Anniversary Blog Candy

It's my blog anniversary.  I can't believe I have been doing this a year.  We moved to Italy just a year ago and I started blogging the cards I made since being a full-time homemaker and cricuteer.  The best thing about what I've done this year in making cards has been joining the Cricut Card Fairies and giving myself something to be proud of doing.  I have fun on the challenges and I really like the Cricut boards, but doing something for someone else is my goal in making cards.  Spread a little joy......  SO, here's some blog candy to spread some joy to others!

This blog candy is for a $50.00 gift certificate to Custom Crops.  I will do a random drawing on March 1st (Italy Time) and post it here only.  Come back then to see if you won.    Post this on your blog, leave a comment here and follow me if you are not already a follower.

Thanks for visiting and good luck!
