And the winner is........Plus more giveaways!!

Hi everybody!!! First I want to say that I'm stunned at the response to my blog candy giveaway. I have been humbled by all the nice comments and compliments I have received from so many people over the last 2 weeks. I have visited many of your blogs, but please bear with me if I have not made it to yours yet. I will making my way around to all of your blogs as soon as I can - there are a lot for me to visit!!

I wish I could send all of you a prize!!! But, unfortunately there can only be one lucky winner of this blog candy. To get the winner I went to the random number generator at www.calculatorslive.com and put in the total number of comments on this post and when the number came up it was 10 and I counted each original poster down from the top of the list and the lucky winner is Therese of Lost in Paper!!! Congrats Therese - I'll be contacting you shortly to get your address. Keep reading for the More Giveaways part...

Since response to my blog candy was so great and the plush dog got so many comments, I decided that for the rest of the year I would giveaway one stuffed animal on the first of each month along with a couple of crafty items (you can tell I always have extras laying around). Each month I will designate one of my posts to be the monthly giveaway post. To be eligible for the monthly drawing just check out my blog and leave a message on that post, make sure you're a follower and you will be entered. This is open to all - even international followers. You have until the end of the month to find the post and leave a comment. The first giveaway will be Thursday, March 1st - so check back in February and look for the giveaway post - it will be after today.

I had planned to do another giveaway when I hit 100 followers, but thanks to you all I have surpassed that now!! So, the next big Blog Candy giveaway will come at 200 followers or my 2nd Blogoversary - whichever comes first. Thanks for all your amazing support!!

Please note the entries for the giveaway ended at Noon on Sunday, February 12 EST.
