I'm a WINNER, and still in shock...
 

I played at the Pals Paper Arts challenge earlier this week and won their HUGE Blog Candy prize - the generous design team is comprised of nine phenomenal Stampin' Up! demonstrators and they each had a giveaway. I have nine packages of Stampin' Up! goodies coming to my house - both new and retired! If I met these demonstrators in real life, I'd be celebrity struck and wouldn't be able to say a thing! I found out yesterday but I'm still in shock!

If you get the chance to play in challenges, I highly recommend the Pals Paper Arts Challenge. They have the most beautiful color challenge this week of not quite navy, marina mist, and bashful blue - I LOVE the guest designer's card. I've been on SCS so much this week printing out inspirational cards that I don't have enough color ink to print out her card!

Just pinching myself- thanks for reading!

Congratulations!!

Enjoy your Christmas in July goodies!

Wow! Congratulations!!! Have fun with all your new stuff!

Wow, congrats! I love Mary Fish's blog, and her challenges look fun, too. Enjoy your goodies!

Hi Melissa:

It's wonderful to hear your excitement. The PPA Design Team is excited about showering you in blog candy. Your "loot" from me should arrive by Tuesday! Hugs, Mary

Congrats, Melissa! I am so glad you joined us in our challenge...and thanks for all of the sweet things you had to say about the PPA. I hope you enjoy the stamp set, paper and ribbon that is on its way to you from me!

Melissa I am so tickled for your win!!! I am part of the design team and I thank you for your kind words!!! My package went out priority mail yesterday (Sat.). Leave us a comment at the PPA that they all arrived safely! Enjoy. Hugs,

Thank you!
 

Thank you design team!
I'm having a Stampin' Up! class on Friday and I told my friends about this blog candy - they can't wait to come play! It's going to be a really, really fun mail week here! The funniest part will be watching my 4-year-old twins watch me open packages - my daughter will be thrilled and will want to play right along with me. My son, he's going to look for Star Wars and promptly turn around!

It really is fun to give away Blog Candy! So glad you are excited. Enjoy!!

Excellent!! Will you take some pics when you get your prizes?? Congrats!!

Jennik, Sure! I realized that there weren't photos in one collective place, so I'll be doing it for my blog. It sounds as if Tuesday is going to begin the festivities! Not to mention my Big Shot is coming - we're going to have a lot of fun here!
