It Is That Time Again - SUMMER GIVEAWAY!!

♥♥♥This blog candy is now CLOSED!!  Check back soon to see who won.  Thanks to all that entered!! ♥♥♥

With it being the first day of summer and it is such a beautiful day, I have a giveaway to celebrate the blessings in my life.  Even though my husband has been out of work, on and off for the past couple of years, and we have struggled financially for a while now, I have soooo many blessings to be thankful for........  I have a loving family, wonderful kids and a strong, adoring husband, we have our health, our faith in God and Jesus Christ, we still have a roof over our heads, we have food to eat, fresh water to drink, clean air to breathe, I have great supportive friends, and there is also YOU, my online friends who I enjoy visiting with for a little bit each week.


Recently, I found a FAB deal I couldn't pass up on TWO Home Decor Cricut cartridges that I want to share with TWO OF YOU!!  I love this cart and I use it all the time like on my Happy Bird-day card and Kindness Comes In Many Forms card.  I will give each cartridge away in two separate drawings.  You have a chance to get one entry into each of the two drawings.....details below...... 

***This giveaway is not sponsored by anyone....I am doing this giveaway on my own***


  • To get an entry into the first drawing, spread the word about my giveaway......on your blog, on a message board, facebook or Tweet about it, email some friends......with a link back to this post and then come back here and leave a comment under this post telling me how you spread the word with a link to where you did and a way for me to contact you if you win.
  • To get an entry into the second drawing, become a follower/subscriber or already be a follower/subscriber to my blog and leave a comment under this post telling me that you are with a way for me to contact you if you win.

That is it....easy peasy, right?!?  If we get lots of entries, I may add more to the giveaways as we go along.

Please only leave one comment for each entry.  I will leave this blog candy open until July 19th that is 4 weeks from today.....I will randomly draw two winners shortly after then.  This giveaway is open to everyone...I will ship them internationally.  If you already have this cart, you may still want to enter to give it away to a friend of family member that doesn't have it.  As always, thanks so much for stopping by and brightening my day and GOOD LUCK!!


HUGS,

    I'm a new follower Amy. I've noticed you as a follower on my blog and am just getting around to visiting (sorry it's taken so long!). Now I see some yummy candy - guess it was good timing for me lol!

    I understand completely about not having a job - we are in the same 'boat.' God has faithfully been taking care of us as He has for your family. It is amazing how His grace covers us and how He provides!

    Love and big hugs of blessing ~

    You are an inspiration. I already have this cart and I enjoy it too. But I will tell people who wisit my blog to come and see you if I can work out how to do this. God gives us much but he gives us faith and hope most of all and without faith and hope it would be a very sad world. I believe you get back more than what you give so I hope you get a wonderful reward for your generosity.
