Monthly Drawing For Blog Candy!

Current challenge is under this post.

We are having so much fun with this challenge blog that we have decided to add something new... A monthly drawing for CANDY!

Here is how it's going to work...
In order to qualify for the drawing all you have to do is

1. Become a follower

2. Post on your blog about the candy AND the sponsor with a link back to this post

3. Put the badge on the bottom of this post with a link back to this post on your sidebar

4. Link your post to Mr. Linky

That's it.

Sometimes we will have something extra for you to do to earn another chance to win. For example, for this drawing if you enter in Challenge #8 you will get to enter the drawing again. Just link your entry to Mr. Linky and put a #2 next to your name.

OK, now onto the sponsor. We are so lucky to have DeNami Design Rubber Stamps as our first sponsor. They have a wonderful selection of rubber stamps and other goodies and they are giving the winner a $30 Gift Certificate to spend in their store! WOW! Thank you Denami Design!
