YAY! Happy Birthday/anniversary, to my BLOG. My Creative Space turns one this week, and my has it been a year. The highlight by far has been chosen as a Farmer for The Greeting Farm.
Speaking of The Greeting Farm, today i am hosting Throwback Thursday at TGF and i am showcasing the XMAS SWEETIES set. Here's my card.
Doesn't Ian look cute all dressed up in his Santa costume. I stamped him onto Xpress blending card using memento ink and then colored him in using copic markers. To finish off the background i airbrushed using BG72. The patterned papers are from Echo Park and October Afternoon, and the "ho ho ho" sentiment is from the same Xmas Sweeties set as Ian, and is available in the TGF store now.
It wouldn't be a celebration without blog candy though, so here's a pic of what i would like to give away.
If you like my blog and would like to have a chance to win my candy then all you need to do is;
( -a-) become a follower of my blog, and let me know in a comment on this post that you would like to enter to win my candy
OR
(-b-) if you are already a follower of my blog, then let me know in a comment on this post that you are already a follower and would like to enter to win my candy
and then
(-c-) it would be great if you could let your blogging friends know about my blog candy, but this certainly isn't a requirement to be in the running to win.
I really do appreciate each and every one of your kind comments, and friendship through blogging, so thank you one and all and good luck! I will draw a random winner from all comments received by 12.01am CST (US), or 4.01pm EST (AUS) one week from now.
Thank you so much for popping in to say Hi.
Tracey. XO.
Oh, Tracey, I ALWAYS love your cards and this one is NO exception! Love EVERYTHING about it...ESPECIALLY the FAB DPs, the LO, and the gorgeous snowflakes!

Hi Tracey! I'm a big fan of all your work I have seen at the TGF gallery! Congrats on your first year, and what better way to celebrate than with a blog candy give-away! Just became a follower and can't wait to see what you have in store for the upcoming holidays. I also have a ton of xmas cards to make and need to get started. I am in the process of finishing our basement where I will have my very own craft room!! I feel like it's taking foreeeeevvvveerrrr. It makes it hard for me to get a lot done!
