Back to the Craziness...

Now some people will say that the VDBC anniversary weekend was crazy - but not me!!! Oh not I!!!  Oh no - I had a wonderful time... but now I am back to the craziness called life!!!!

I am in the process of trying to get my butt in gear and get all my cutter designs up in the store!! I have almost 400 designs now and I realized this weekend that there are only about 210 of them are up!!! Now before you think I am just being a COMPLETE slacker - I want to explain that none of my older stuff had SVG's so I am having to go in and convert my files to SVG and I am adding the DXF (for those that have been asking!!!), additionally - I am re-doing the photos and I am re-writing the verbiage!!!  So as you can see - it can take some serious time to get ALL of that done!!!

My goal is to upload at least ten older designs a week - now to see if I can stick to the goal - that is another thing!!!!  Don't forget that at the same time I am trying to get all my older stuff up - I am still trying to get NEW stuff done to...

And if that wasn't enough - I am also trying to expand and get my new product lines up at the Beloved Keepsakes Boutique as well!!!

Ah - no rest for the weary!!

Hope you are all having a GREAT week- I am going to try and get some of the projects that my readers have submitted ready to show you tomorrow! I think you might like to see some of their stuff - and hey it may even inspire you to get into gear!!!  Bahahaha!!

Until Next Time!

And the WINNER(S) Are...

I hope you all had a great time Celebrating the 2nd Anniversary of VDBC and my 1st Birthday being a designer on the "More" team!!!!

Now I know what you are all really waiting for is the winner of this weeks contest - so without further ado.....

The winner of the "Glue Arts" Sticky Prize pack


for participation in the BK's Grand Theft Challenge is:

Well - I'm not going to tell you right away... sheesh.... first I need to tell you I wrote all the entries names on a slip of paper - remember you got one chance for entering, one chance if the page you "lifted" had one of my designs and another entry if your entry used one of my designs as well - so that was up to three chances per entry!!!! 

So I put all the names in a jar -


And I drew out one......

And the WINNER IS:


HEATHER!!!!!


Whoooo hooooo..... congrats Heather!!!!

Now for the second "Glue Arts" Sticky Prize Pack. 


If you will recall I asked a different question every day and asked you to leave a comment in the comment section of this blog to be entered in a second drawing.  So I copied all the comments (we ended up with 77 comment over the three days).

I printed them out in reverse order (So starting with Sunday's comments first) and then I numbered them 1 through 77.


I then went to randomizer.org and I asked the Randomizer to pick a number one through 77.... and the number was #27!!!!


I matched up #27 with the comment number #27 - and the winner is:


Kelly S!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats Kelly!!!!!

I hope you all had a great weekend - and I can't thank you enough for playing and supporting Beloved Keepsakes!!!

Until Next Time!
