HAPPY BLOG HOP TO YOU!!

WELCOME TO THE CRICUT CARD FAIRY BLOG HOP!

(Hopefully you arrived here from Jenn's blog. If not, there is a list of all bloggers below.)

Happy Friday! Today we are celebrating the Cricut Card Fairies!! We turned THREE YEARS OLD yesterday! YAY! What are Cricut Card Fairies you may be asking? Well I am here to tell you! We are a group of crafting volunteers who LOVE to send cards to those that need it. To date we have sent over 750 missions all over the globe. That is over 750 smiles and hugs via cards. Isn't that amazing? I became a fairy in 2010 because I was inspired by all the other fairies and the joy and comfort they were spreading.  If you are interested in becoming a fairy you can email Crystal at cricutcardfairyarmy@gmail.com with your cricut messageboard name and the email for which you wish to receive missions.

For this blog hop we had two themes to pick from, Fairies and Birthdays, and I bet you can tell from the title of this post, I picked birthdays.

I will be posting new projects for all three days of the blog hop, here are my first projects. I hope you get inspired by these two because I have the perfect BLOG CANDY for ya' if you do. What's that you say?? LOVE blog candy?? Then stop back here on all three days and you could qualify for extra blog candy.

BLOG CANDY - Because this blog hop is special to me (sort of a coming back from crafting hiatus), you have TWO chances to win blog candy!!! And it is sooo easy to enter!!! I will be giving away the two cartridges I used for my projects above. One HELLO KITTY GREETINGS, and one FOREVER YOUNG. (Although I mistakenly used my own cartridges in the pictures, you will be winning brand new cartridges.)

OK now here is how you can have a chance to win not one - but TWO cartridges.
1st chance: comment on this post and you are in the drawing for the first cartridge.
2nd chance: I will be posting on all three days of the blog hop so anybody who comments on ALL THREE of my posts will be in the drawing for the second cartridge.
See... easy right?!
Of course followers are adored and revered and greatly appreciated - so please follow if you like my projects, but it is not necessary for the blog candy.
Good Luck and please leave contact info in your comment.

Ok, now head on over to Gina's blog and see what this talented lady has in store for you. Love that RED card Gina!! And if you happened to land here out of order, there is a list of all the participating blogs below.
