NOW CLOSED
Thats right my little loopy loo's, I have decided to give away another bounty of goodies. On Christmas day it will be 6 months since I started my insane ramblings and blogging (25th June) and since then I have "met" the most wonderful people, won some incredible candies myself, visited and seen the most incredible blogs and creations, had great craic writing my somewhat eccentric blog posts and enjoyed reading all your amazing comments.
So, in the short time I have had my wee blog, I appear to have completely missed the 20'000 and 21'000 hits giveaway mark (opps....sorry) and have now nearly reached 22'000. Didnt I just do a 10'000 hit candy which seems like 5 mins ago?? Whats going on here??
But anywho, I want to offer more candy as a massive thank you to all my wonderful followers. You must have the patience of a saint to sit and read through the "constant ramblings of an insane Irish woman" as I shall call it. Ohhhh that would make an awesome title for my memoires, heehee. Hey....all you authors out there....dont even think about it.....its my title....Ive Copyrighted it! Like anyone would read my craziness. HAAA.....you lot do! Now what does that say about you lot??
See.....told you there would be rambling. See, once I pop.....I cant stop!
Im doing this candy a little differently I think. It will be for MY CURRENT FOLLOWERS ONLY. So, anyone who is a follower as and at today's date AND at the time of this being posted (I'll know how many there are.......Ive checked........ 301 followers!!) will be eligible to enter this candy. In not in any way trying to snub new followers......there will be more candies offered in future. But I wanted this to be a massive THANK YOU to all those who have followed me up until now.
So, last time I did one BIG candy, and then at the last minute I added on a wee extra candy. This time, I think I want to do littler and more(r!) candies.....do you get my drift? Ok so, I want to give more of you some goodies. But for me to be able to do that, I am having to make the candies a little smaller. So not one ginormous one to one person alone. And when I say I will make the candies smaller, anyone who has ever received goodies from me will confirm that I dont do small very well. I have an awful habit of giving away loads! So, it will not be a stingy candy giveaway by any stretch of the imagination. But I do want to give as many people as possible some goodies. I do not have endless supplies of goodies and as much as I would love to give all 301 followers a present, well, I just dont have the stash! And since I will be officially blogging for 6 months on Christmas Day, I thought it would be nice to give away 6 cute bundles of candy goodness.
THE YUCKY RULE STUFF
So just to reiterate the dreaded RULES, this giveaway is eligible to my current followers only. That is, anyone who followers me after follower number 301 will sadly not be able to enter.....this time. But as I said, there will be more candies in the future which will be open to everyone, current and new followers.
If any of my current followers would like to win, please leave a comment below....theres no Mr Linky here people!
I will leave this draw open until Friday the 20th of January 2012 (Wha???? 2012! Where did my youth go....and my boobs.....Oh...they are way down there!! Ok slight exaggeration..Im only 31!)) at 9pm after which time I will copy and paste all the comments into word, print them out, cut each one out and ask my Scrubby to draw 6 names out of a big wooden bowl!!
I will then announce the winners who will need to email me there details by using the "Contact me" button at the top right hand side of my blog. You will have 48 hours to contact me, after which time I reserve the right to redraw another name and that person will then need to contact me within just 24 hours (Im giving the redraw 24hrs only as I dont want to delay posting out the people who do contact me). There will be no exception to this rule. I have to be fair. I wont make exceptions even if I get a soppy email saying that you missed me posting the winners because your best friends, neighbours, aunties rare breed three legged cat got stuck in a tree and when you tried to save it, you got stuck up there for 2 days and missed my post! It may seem harsh, but I only plan on making 1 trip to post all the candy winners prizes out and I want to be fair and not keep everyone else waiting for their candy because someone was stuck up a tree! So if you miss your name being drawn out, Im afraid if you dont contact me within the 48 hour time period, I will redraw. I am also not responsible for parcels getting lost in the post either (I will get proof of postage).
So, if you wanna win one of 6 candy prizes, all you have to do is
1) be one of my CURRENT followers only (everyone from 1 to 301),
2) leave a comment below if you want to enter (No Mr Linky here so please leave a comment if you want to be entered,
3) place the picture below in your side bar and thats it.
ENDS FRIDAY 20th JANUARY 2012 AT 9PM
Now Im not showing you what you are getting yet............but!!!!....there will be some of my handmade flowers and stickpins, some lace and die cuts and a load more scrummy goodness. I may give some sneak peeks over the coming weeks, I may not. Am I being a bit of a tease? Me thinks so.
Yes this was waffly but I hope the goodies I give away will be worth it. And lets face it, its kinda nice to read someone elses ramblings and realise that there is someone out there more insane than you, right? lol
So good luck, Im sure the 6 winners will like what I have for them.
Edit......OPEN WORLDWIDE!

Hi Lee
ReplyDeleteI was just catching up with your recent activities and have to say your stick pins are fab. I do think marrying them off is a tad eccentric, even for you!! lol
As one of your first followers it would be downright rude of me to not leave you a comment in the hopes of winning some of your amazing candy, which I know will be scrummy without even seeing it! Thanks so much for the opportunity.
