Blog Award!

I was given this wonderful blog award by four awesome crafters (Cyndi, Kris, Mimi and Laura). Thank you so much ladies! This means a lot to me!

Here's a short introduction about the Liebster Blog Award: 'Liebster' is German for 'dearest'. The award is a 'share-the-love' arrangement, given to inspirational bloggers with less than 200 followers. These awards give small bloggers some well deserved recognition for their creations. Here are the rules:

1. Thank your Liebster Blog Award presenter on your blog. 
2. Link back to the blogger who presented the award to you.
3. Copy and paste the blog award on your blog.
4. Present the Liebster Blog Award to 5 blogs of 200 followers or less who you feel deserve to be noticed.
5. Let them know they have been chosen by leaving a comment at their blog.

Since there are rules, here are the five blogs that I've chosen (in no particular order):

• Rita's Little Corner (Rita)
• ScrappingSuzieQTT (Suz)
• Sweet Craf-Tea Chick (Steph)
• Unique Scrappiness (Kimi)
• Creative Grammie (W).

Now, we all know that rules are made to be broken, right? So, here's my take on this award. There are many of us "little" bloggers who are just as talented as the "big" bloggers.  So for all of us little guys who craft for fun and like to share our ideas, please accept this award from me, and share it with other "little guys" in Blogland, ok? Ok! Until next time, take care and don't forget to smile!

Happy Blog Award!

How cute is this award? Doesn't it make you smile and feel happy? That's how I feel when I look at it! I'd like to thank Jenny and Brenda for sharing this award with me. Thank you, ladies! You are such sweethearts and I'm sending this right back to you!

I'd like to share this award with all my blogging friends, especially a "few" special ones: Kyoko, Teri, Joy, Chalsie, Cami, Marisa, Janis, Rita, Shirley, Gracie, Risa, Michelle U., Jodi Ann, Joni H., Liann, Kim Y., Lorna, Michele H., and Joy D. Grab this award, girls, and spread the happiness!

The weekend is almost here! I can't wait!!!
