A Giveaway Announcement

My friend Sherry at Lamp Unto My Feet is celebrating her 2 year Blogoversary and hosting some great giveaways to celebrate!

Today she is offering as a giveaway a custom Blog Logo Button designed by me! If the winner already has a blog button I will be glad to create another kind of button or sidebar graphic, or you can gift-away your win.

Best wishes to you!

Winner Announcement of Karen's Book Giveaway!

It's time to announce the winner of Karen's giveaway for your choice of her books! Karen sent her readers over here to tell me what they believed conveyed the sense of being *real* in her new blog design. Well, when I first began working, I immediately thought of that picture on the right side of her Header where she's looking up at God with an expression that says "What do I do now?" or something to that effect. Most of you guessed that picture and are correct.

As I worked though, I emphasized the message of *real* when I used the tattered, frazzeled font for the word Surviving in contrast with the graceful, gentle font used in the word Motherhood. So if you guessed that then you were also correct.

Karen expressed that she wanted a cross in the design and it just seemed right that the best placement was behind the "Help Me" picture to convey that surviving motherhood requires leaning on Jesus for His strength and that He is always right there. So those of you who guessed the cross and it's strategic placement, right again.

That leads us to the Scripture Tag. Karen chose the scripture that she felt accurately represented surviving motherhood. Exodus 14:14 so accurately expresses the complete reliance on God to help moms raise up their children, so I titled it My Strength as the final piece that pulled it all together. If you guessed the scripture you are correct also.

So this means that all of you had a correct answer and were included in the drawing. But alas there was still only one winner, and that person is.....

Patricia from nyc!

Congratulations Patricia! Please make sure that Karen has your email address to contact you, or you can go play with her new Email Me button if you want. :)

And The Winner Is...

It's time to announce the winner of the blog makeover contest.

Thank you all for playing along and keep following even if you aren't today's winner. I do have contests periodically so there will be other opportunities.

Of course if you just can't wait for the next opportunity, I am available for hire too. :) I allow you and God to decide the amount you pay so that anyone can afford a makeover.

Don't you just hate suspense? I know that some of you haven't even read this far because you have scrolled past this part to find out who the winner is. I bet you're the ones who read the last page in a book first too. LOL.

Ok, ok. Enough stalling. Here we go.

The winner was chosen by a random number generator. There were a total of 49 entries after all the hoops you jumped through.

And the winner is...

Tammy from Not mine but God's Story!

Congratulations Tammy!

Thank you all for entering!

Blog Makeover Contest Winner

It's time to announce the Contest Winner!

First I would like to say Thank you to my two dear friends for their part in making this contest more fun and successful.

Thank you Chatty Kelly for hosting the contest on your blog and for agreeing to be a judge in this contest.

Thank you Lea at the Thee Olde Potting Shed for announcing the contest on your blog and also for being a judge in this contest.

Thank you all who entered! You really made this fun! If you did not win this contest and did not see the finalist announcement yesterday, you can read it Here. Please check back often and leave comments letting me know what you would like to see in here as I plan to have additional periodic contests and giveaways.

======= On to the announcement. ========

First the contestants names were written on drawing cards.

Next they were dropped into a bag.

The bag was shaken not stirred. (No photo available.)

And finally one card was drawn from the bag announcing the winner.
Are you ready?
And the winner is ....

Congratulations to Barb at Between the Lines - Living in Open Spaces.

=======

In addition, there is one poem that, while it did not make the winner's list, did have a verse that captured the heart of Judge Lea. She has decided that she personally wants to offer that person a surprise gift box from The Potting Shed.

The Surprise Gift Box from Lea goes to one who said "My God I'm adoring."
Heather at Pursuing Purity.

Congratulations Heather!

Blog Makeover Contest - Finalist Announcement

Our judges, Chatty Kelly, Lea, and myself (Edie), have decided on the three finalists of this Blog Makeover Contest and they are announced here in the poem below. We have to tell you that ALL of the poems entererd were FANTASTIC and you made our job far more difficult than we ever thought it would be. We had so much fun reading your little dittys, laughing with you, and getting to know you. Thank you everyone for participating!

In addition, there is one poem that, while it did not make the winner's list, did have a verse that captured the heart of Judge Lea. She has decided that she personally wants to offer that person a surprise gift box from The Potting Shed, so read all the way to the end even if you didn't win.

Here we go,
You want to know
Just who the winner will be?

We don’t know now
But we’ve narrowed it down
And now there are just three.

A poet’s heart,
To make a start
At getting a blog makeover.

The rhymes poured out,
Without a doubt,
And no one tried to takeover.

The judges insane,
They racked their brain
But all of them were GOOD!

But it was no use,
There’s no excuse
We must do what we should.

A blog on her knee
By Lisa, you see
Has made the finals list.

Barb’s needy blog
To share about God
Was also picked, not missed.

ADHD-Jo,
Days 2 & 4 both favorites you know
So her name in there twice.

And Rich Gifts & Graphics,
Wanting more traffic
Has a SALE with lowered prices.

Don’t despair if this time you didn’t win,
You can be sure we will do it again
Drawings & giveaways & stuff for FREE.

The game was fun
But who has won?
Tomorrow we will see!

~FINALISTS~

Lisa at By His Grace I am what I am

Barb at Between the Lines - Living in Open Spaces
ADHD-Jo at Monkeys are Funny --- Two entries in the drawing due to the judges not being able to choose just one favorite poem.

---------------

The Surprise Gift Box from Lea goes to one who said "My God I'm adoring."

Heather at Pursuing Purity.
