New York or Bust !!!!

WooHoo!!! 

Guess What??!

Our Big Guns worked!!! Thanks so much girls for voting on both mine and Ashley's projects over at Michael's Handmade Holidays!



Michael’s


I received a phone call last week that I WON the Endless Creativity contest which means...

A trip to New York to see the Martha Stewart show and a big ol' giftcard to Michael's as well!

I just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to all you girls who supported us.  We couldn't have done it without you and I promise to bring many more projects to you courtesy of my gift card :) !

These are my joy plaques that won...



You can see the full project HERE.

Also... Make sure you go check out Michael's site where you can see all the entries by clicking the button below.  Thanks again Shanty Supporters.  You gals are the BOMB!!
