Congratulations to Kimberly at City Scribe Scraps!!!

{the rest is copy/pasted from MyLeap...}

And P.S. Sorry for announcing the winner a day late! I worked all day yesterday (those lovely late RN-hours) and didn't realize how time consuming it was to number all the entries, assign numbers for all the 'extras', etc.

*~ If you were one of those who said they wanted to try the skincare samples for 3-4 days, please email me with your contact info & I'll send one your way. Can't wait to hear how you like it! RNMeg@cox.net

Thanks so much for all of your entries!!!

*********** I know it's hard to read my writing on this new background... sorry! I'm looking for the perfect free background. I LOVE this one, but I kinda saw it on another blog & went and got it (copy cat!). I "tried on" a dozen other ones, but none looked as good as this one. So I'm not changing all the font colors until I am 100% sure on a new background... I hate to "steal", though I'm sure there are a ton of others with the same one anyways. Knowing me, I'll do all that work only to find a better one with the opposite color background!

Bloggy Giveaway

Oooh! Free stuff! It's time for the bloggy carnival~*

I was baffled by some of the generous giveaways that I ran across-- Here are a few standouts:

check out this giveaway-- a coach purse!
go here for a $50 giftcard for Disney! (Dland, Dworld, or the stores)


I'm hosting two giveaways-- one here and one over at MyLeap.

(P.S. This is my personal blog- it's not Arbonne-related, but it is just for today, just for my giveaway!)

I'm giving away the NutriMinC® RE9 Anti-Aging Body Care System, in cute drawstring gift bag, $92 value.

This includes the full-sized:

Body Serum (NutriMinC® RE9 REactivating Body Serum, $42 value)

Body Lotion (NutriMinC® RE9 REfinishing Hydrating Body Lotion, $45 value)

(and the bag makes up the other $5 ... my husband told me my math was bad, but it's not!)

This stuff is AMAZING!!!! Click here for my full review.

My only requirement is that you actually want to try it! It is two (quick) steps, but sooo worth it in my opinion.

Enter by posting a comment below. Open to US residents only (sorry!) Contest will close on August 1st. Winner will be announed & contacted by August 3rd.

Additional entries will be given to anybody who does any (or all) of the following:

1- Promises to give me their feedback on the product, should they win (worth 1 extra entry)

2- Interested in trying the facial skincare system for 3-4 days & giving feedback (worth 2 extra entries) ... you will be amazed at the difference just a few days can make!

3- Links to my giveaway on their blog (worth 1 extra entry)

4- Listens to this pre-recorded phonecall & gives feedback. (worth 4 extra entries) 641-715-3412 (pin: 848093#) Especially listen to this if you are interested in natural products or in making extra money from home.

(Don't forget to state in your comments if you are doing any of these extras... you can do as many as you want, with a total of 9 entries possible!)

P.S. (again) Just a little FYI, I share these products & the business opportunity only with those who express interest, so please know that I will never contact you about anything "Arbonne" unless you want me to! I'm soooo not interested in being a sales person!!! But I will share this if you ask because I do think it's wonderful~*

Good luck!!! I know you will love these products!

Unexpected Inspiration

I got a lovely gift in the mail yesterday!!!!

I won a giveaway on my friend's blog (dream create share)-- and for my 'prize', I chose a handmade piece of jewelry. The other choices were a handmade journal or a paper pack.

Well, not only did my package include these absolutely beautiful earrings...

{{(love them, love them!) Umm, LOVE THEM!!!! I don't know what else to say. But I do want to wear them every day. Today I chose my outfit simply so it would match the earrings.}}

...But there was MORE!

She included this gorgeous journal

and a paper pack full of fun papers and trims.

I can't wait to use them. My heart feels full! I want to just sit alone with these goodies and create! And pour myself into it! I haven't done that in so long, and I didn't think it was necessary- but having this in front of me-- this open, empty book-- a blank canvas and lots of media to create with --- it's drawing me.

This is who I am and what I've been doing my whole life, but it was one of the first things to go when my life got fuller. (Journaling & creating.)

Dede- thank you for the amazing gifts, and also for the inspiration that you have given me! I CAN.NOT. wait to spend some time with my journal. I absolutely treasure it. And the earrings, they are my favorite. Absolutely perfect! You are such a beautiful person and an inspiration in more way than one. Keep on loving life and living your passion in that contagious way that you do! Thank you again, sweet friend!
