DIY Dish Winner... I am!

Can I just tell you how EXCITED we are at our house?  We won the DIY DISH giveaway from GameStop.  I have two little boys who can't contain themselves!  Thank you Kris and Kim! 

I should direct you all over to DIY Dish and tell you that they have a GREAT video tutorial that shows how to make infinity scarves.... and it takes NO SEWING!  SRSLY!   So, I watched the video this afternoon, raided my husband's closet and set right to work.  Two minutes  later (I'm not exaggerating), I had a great scarf to match the hat that I was wearing at the time. 

Here it is...  Sorry for the bad picture.  I took it in a mirror and I guess the flash caught all of the dust on the mirror or something.  It is really hard to take a picture of yourself in the mirror.  I look like a dork in all of them.  But, regardless of my dorkiness,  check out the scarf I made in two minutes.  AWESOME!  I love it.

So, we won $180 worth of videogames from GameStop.com and we ordered them the moment we received the code.  We got Donkey Kong Country Returns, uDraw with all of the drawing stuff, Just Dance 2 and a puzzle game for the DS.  The name escapes me right now.  My boys can't wait for the mailman! Whew hoo!

I think it is time for me to change my header from Christmas to something more appropriate.  One of these days I will have time.

I hope you have some good luck this week too!

If you get a chance, be sure to stop by The Girl Creative. She is having a crafty blog hop. This is a great place to find new and interesting blogs to follow!

Attention Crafty Ladies

I have to share with you this CUTE project done by Kim and Kris at The DIY Dish!  You won't even believe how simple it is to make these placemats and the great prize they are offering up!   I've made several of their projects and they are always well explained step-by-step.  Once you've seen the video, make sure you leave a nice comment on their site, The DIY Dish, because they are having a drawing for 10 prizes! 



I've never embedded a video before, so let's hope this works!  Enjoy!

I Won a Giveaway!

You all won't believe the CUTE package I got in the mail yesterday! I won an adorable necklace on Atlanta's site called Life(ish). She's a really fun mom and she's got a wonderful blog and a great affinity for cupcakes... and, get this, I won one of her giveaways! She made this cute little necklace and I have it in my hot little hands right now. It is really super cute! Thanks, Atlanta!

Look at that cupcake ribbon. How cute with that look on a handmade card or on a scrapbook page?
