Oops, YOU did it again…- Drawing is over
I just passed 1,300,000 hits. Thank you all for coming to visit me! That is so sweet of you! So now it’s time for Fresh & Fun Freebies again.
This time I will raffle away a new unmounted Gina K. Make a Wish stamp set.
You can find a lot of great samples for this wonderful set on Gina’s website.
Along with the set the winner will receive assorted May Arts ribbon.
To win, please add a post a comment to this entry. Add your entry number to your post.
Your entry number is the comment number +1.
I will determine a winner with the help of random.org tomorrow morning around 8:00 a.m. CST.
Good luck! Hugs and smiles
P.S.: In case you are wondering. I am still burried under swap cards. Right now I am glueing little 1/4″ circles on each card (three of them). I hope to be done in another hour or two and hopefully get to play with stamps later on.
