And the Winners Are....!!

Hi All!

I just wanted to say thank you for your participation in my birthday giveaway. As promised I picked the winners today with my little helper Lo. She is easily distracted and didn't last through the name picking! I used my wonderful vintage/shabby jar from my friend Lisa at Sparkklejar and picked names the old fashion way! I made a video but it was too jumpy because Lo kept dropping the paper so I only posted the photos. She didn't last long! Oh well, maybe next year. I really enjoyed reading what everyone's favorite gifts were! Thank you for sharing your fun memories. OK on with the part you really want to read! Here are the winners!!!! The names correspond with the order of the prizes as well. I realized I had 15 winners (but I miscounted) so to even things up I added as the last prize a print of choice from my shop.

Winners are:

Sherry Lee - Becky Hilgendorf Art Cards!
Serena - Frog ACEO from Amanda Makepeace
Cre8tiva - Mirror from Tim Sally's
Connie - EK Creations necklace
