2nd Blog Anniversary Giveaways Week 2

EDIT: The winners for this week's giveaways are posted HERE.

Before I announce the winners from last week's giveaway, here's a card that I made just because. Don't you just love doing that? I used my GinaK Hugs and Prayers (poppies), Christ is Risen (main verse) sets and Layers of Color's The Love Chapter (script text background). I also used the brand new Spellbinders Labels 18. I did the emboss resist technique on this card. It was inspired by two challenges:
  • Etsy-Inspired - the photo inspiration is here.
  • Stampin' Sisters in Christ - my treasure is God's Word (the background text is I Cor 13 and of course, the main text), but in card-speak that would be the bling which I hoard like crazy. LOL!
And now the winners from last week's prizes. The commenter winner is:
VALERIE

The winner of the subscribers/followers only giveaway is:
#39 LEANNE

Please email me (via tab above) to claim your prizes. Thank you for joining in the fun! Are you ready for more giveaways?

Here are this week's prizes. For a random commenter from today's post until Monday (March 21, 11:59pm PST), I will give this away: Gina K's Lawn and Garden, Seeds of Kindness, which go well with the SEI paper pack (please note this not brand new, but only a few sheets are missing). Remember you get to comment twice a day if you share this post on Facebook or your blog.
For my faithful subscribers and followers (via Google readers, Facebook, blogger, etc.), this is what's up for grabs:
  • GinaK's Fun Year Round stamp set
  • Some of my favorite SRM Stickers
  • 3 colors of twine from The Twinery (15 yards each)
  • Maya Road felt cupcakes
Remember, you have to enter your name via the Inlinkz below to be included in the drawing. Leaving a comment stating you're a follower will NOT be enough as I have no way to keep track of them easily. If you entered last week, no need to enter again. One entry per person, please. Duplicate entries will not be included in the drawing. If you don't have a blog, just enter mine, but make sure you enter your email address. Thank you for your regular visits!
