I started this amazing blog journey!! Little did I know then how much joy this 'blogging thing' would bring into my life! :) I have met some amazing and wonderful women (you) who I am so thankful to call my friends!One of my special friends, Janelle, (Show and Tell) is also celebrating her one year blogiversary today! So... we decided that we would celebrate together!! If you don't know Janelle... you should! Janelle is such a beautiful, kind and caring woman... not to mention... a wonderful crafter!
Janelle's sweet daughter, Britt, made the button for us at the top of my post! Isn't it adorable? I just love it! Janelle joked that we were twins separated at birth when we realized we shared the same blogiversary! I think we are in many ways!! So.... that is where it started... in case you were wondering! :)
We decided that we would both use the same stamp set to make a card to post today! We chose Big and Bold Wishes from Papertrey! Here is my card....
I went with the Thank you sentiment because I wanted to thank all of you who visit me! Some of you have visited me almost from the start... at least one of you from the start (Courtney)!
So... as a Thank you to all of you and as a Thank you to Courtney for being my IRL crafty friend and my blog friend... I wanted to give away one of her new stamp sets... For The Love of Dots... and some of her fabbie May Arts ribbon that she sells in her store.... www.practicingcreativitydesigns.com. I am giving away 5 different ribbons... 1 yard each!
If you would like to win this prize... just leave me a comment. You have until Tuesday, April 13th at 5pm CST to enter. I will (hopefully) use random.org to pick a winner (if I can figure it out) and post the winner on Tuesday night! Good luck!! :) And Thank you again for being my friend! :)
Peace and Love!

Happy Blogversary, Kelley!! love your simple and pretty card! so sweet! so glad that i found you blog! =)
Hey girlfriend, you were my inspiration to start a blog. I didn't think I had much to blog about that anyone would actually care to read. I figured out that it really doesn't matter. I enjoy looking back at my own posts to see times with my grands, girls, family and friends. Not as often as I would have thought, a craft/card or two. Love ya and LOVE your CARDS and POSTS. You are a sweetheart!
Happy first blogaversary, Kelley! I read both your blog and Janelle's. . . thanks for the chance to win the cool "blog candy."

Happy blog anniversary! I wish I had more time to blog myself..just been working like crazy the past month or so, but I still get on to see what you've been up to!
I came here from Janelle's blog and I'm so glad she told us about you. What a wonderful blog! Thanks for the chance to win this prize and thanks for sharing your talents with us!
As suggested by Janelle, I took a little side trip to your blog to wish you a happy first blogiversary. I've stopped by once before after seeing your Moxie Fab floss card, but didn't add your blog to my regulars because I was feeling blog comment pressure. I may have to rethink that decision after spending some time on your blog. Congratulations, Kelley!
Congrats on your blogaversary - so glad I found you (thanks to Sarah!) Love the flower on your TY card and such sweet candy! How very sweet of you! Have a fantastic weekend!
