WINNER, WINNER, Chicken Dinner...and Pics of our new Granddaughter!

Today is the day! The winner of the Designed Decor Frame Kit ($43.85 value) is being announced today!  Thank you to ALL OF YOU who entered.

Before I make the big announcement, I must quickly let you know that I haven't forgotten about all of you who follow my blog.  I have been out of town for the past week and a half staying with my son, Easton, his wife, Daysha and their brand new baby girl, Sage. Unfortunately their wi-fi was down so I was unable to do the blog posting I had planned on while I was there.  Check out Sage on Easton's arm at the top of this post.  How sweet is that?  After I announce the winner, I'll be sharing some more pics (thank you Nicole Bulkley Photography for doing an amazing job!)!

Drum roll please............

The winner, selected by Rafflecopter.com is......

Cheryl Shriber Braby

Cheryl, if you could please email me (pedermom@aol.com) with your mailing address in the good ol' USA, I'll get that kit mailed to you pronto!

Now, on to more pictures of Sage Siva Pedersen:

Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner!

Today is it! Today is the day that I announce where Dawson is going on his mission, and in turn that means I will also announce the winner of the DARLING Valentine kit.

First of all, I must admit that I misled you all (not on purpose, mind you). I was pretty sure that with Dawson's Celiac Disease he would stay stateside for his mission. I knew that labeling laws were trustworthy in the U.S. I also thought that he might end up in Canada. That's what I get for thinking!  God had somewhere else in mind.

Dawson received his call and had his "opening party" last night and we filled the house with family, friends, and lots of yummy food.  Everyone was anxious to hear what that letter said.   He was called to serve the next 2 years of his life in the Sydney, Australia mission speaking the Spanish language and teaching the gospel of Jesus Christ.  Yep, no joke!  Spanish in Australia.  He is beyond excited. He enters the Missionary Training Center on June 19 and then heads to Australia a few weeks later.

The winner of the contest is Emilie Ashby.  She guessed Argentina.  Congrats, Emilie!  Email me (pedermom@aol.com) with your mailing address and I'll drop the kit in the mail asap!

Blog Candy Winner and HUGE-A-MONGOUS SALE!

This is my 2nd post today. Be sure to check out the first one for all the GREAT April CTMH deals!

Before I announce the Blog Candy Winner, I had to share that there is a HUGE-A-MONGOUS sale going on right now on my website here. When you get there, just click "Shop Online" and then "While Supplies Last". Close To My Heart has bundled some paper packs, stickease, and accessories together and priced them at over 50% off, some much more than that. Once you get to the "While Supplies Last" page, you'll need to scroll down about half way to get to the bundles. Yowza, they are GREAT DEALS!

Remember, if you spend $100 (before shipping and tax) on my website during April, you'll not only get a Level 1 Kit of your choice FREE ($9.95 value), but you'll also get the April Stamp of the Month FREE ($22.95). That's about $33 worth of FREE stuff. That deserves another YOWZA!

Take the photo you see here, for example. This bundle includes the Passages Level 2 Paper Pack ($12.95 value), the Passages MyStickease Assortment ($4.95 value) and the Passages Marks ($3.95 value). This bundle's total value is $28.95 and is on sale while supplies last for $10.75. No foolin'!

And The Winner Is...

We have a winner! Today I had Kori and Daci draw from the comments you all so kindly made after watching Tannon's video on my Shameless Bribery (Blog Candy) post. Here is the proof:

Kori prepares to draw one lucky comment out of the 28 that were posted
as Daci sucks on both of her lips (her newest trick)

Kori draws a lucky winner as Daci continues with her newest trick

Daci carefully reads the comment to be sure we post the right winner.
She concentrates so hard she forgets to suck on her lips.

Congrats to Amy who said,
"Seriously what a proud momma you should be, how cool is that Karen!! He's amazing by the way, what a little stud that "Tanner" hee hee! And I have to say what a creative way to get the word out huh? Sure do love your guts!"
