Technical Troubles



Hello My Crafty Friends!
  Sorry that I have been MIA and had left you all wondering what was going on with Friday's challenge, FFC#23. Unfortunately, I had television and internet troubles and was without both for nearly six days. Our neighborhood was hit really hard by a power outage due to a lightening storm and it took them nearly a week to get everyone restored. So while I appreciate all your support and constant faithfulness, I ask that you be patient with me as I try to get everything back to normal. Since I was not able to be here on Friday, I am canceling FFC#23 and will resume normally with FFC#24 this upcoming Friday, November 1st. I will then announce the winners from the last challenge and our monthly winner as well on Friday. I hope you all can rest easy now that I am back and worry no more!!

Have a great day and until next time.... Enjoy life's blessings!

FFC #19 Winners~



Click Here for FFC #20 "It's Sketch Time"!

Hello my crafty friends!
I am back sorta. Boy has it been a busy week for me! I moved into my new home on Friday and since, have been putting furniture into place and unpacking each day. My home is starting to look like a home little by little but there is a ton of unpacking left to do. My craft room furniture is in place but I do not have any boxes unpacked yet for this room. I had to focus on the bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen first so that we can have a functional living space. I hope to have my craft room unpacked and ready for use by this upcoming weekend. So I will be here and there and I apologize in advance if I am MIA for a little while longer but I must get my home and craft room in order before I can jump back into my crafting and blogging full time again.

I know I have a ton of things to catch up on and a few hundred emails to get through but I wanted to send out a post on here to catch ya'll up and to announce some winners. So let's get right to it.
 
Ok so our TOP 3 winners from last week's FFC #19 "Women's Friendship Day" are:

 
# 1 Diana
# 2 Lucy
# 15 Elizabete
 
 
Our winner of the 3 pack of digis from Kenny K. is...

            
                       

And now for our monthly winner for the month of September, the winner is...
