Blog Candy Winners

Apologies that I'm a day late announcing the winners of my Blog Candy draw but I was out all day yesterday at Vicky Stampers having fun at my first workshop of the year. It was a great day, as ever, and we made suitcase boxes with Jayne as our fab tutor. I never quite finished mine as I, (as always) gabbed too much, so nothing yet to show.  I sat next to Jane's daughter, Alicia, who joined us for her first ever craft class and she did so well. I often sit next to Paul who was poorly sick and thus was sadly missed yesterday, so I hope you are better soon Paul. We were also joined by Debra and Sarah, two of Neet's blogging buddies (Sarah P of WOYWW), who both fitted in really well and seemed to enjoy their day with us. They said they'd come again and I do hope they do!

Drum roll..... fanfare, distant jingle bells etc.,  here are the

 Winners of the Blog Candy Draw

in celebration of my two years of blogging.

1st Prize drawn ...Elizabeth (Silver Scrapper) who wins craft goodies and a choice of one of my pendants.

The following prizes are my choice as I asked for traditions or funny stories connected with your Christmas.

2nd prize Angie (Shozzy) ... For her funny story. Angie wins a small pack of craft goodies and choice of a pendant. Angie says....
"Fav carol was one from school days...'Adan lay y bounden'
Traditions of old ...when the kids were at home they still had a stocking and a cuddly toy left out side their room, well into their 20's. 
The Christmas story connected with this is that when my 'head banging' 18 year old son stumbled home in the early hours he obviously found his stocking and opened it... because when I went in to wake him he was still dressed ... surrounded in choccy coins ...tangerine skins ...and was cuddling his Xmas teddy ....how I wish I had had a camera ...I could have blackmailed him lol."


3rd prize Craftywomble wins a pendant just for her Spice Cake recipe which I made and adore! Thanks so much Wendy, it will now be one of my traditions!


4th Prize Rosalee wins a pendant. Rosalee told of her Christmas tradition which remembers the true meaning of Christmas. She says....

"A Christmas Tradition in our family is one we do ever year. We all gather together on Christmas eve and relive out the manger scene. The kids dress as the shepherds and wisemen and the couple with the youngest acts as Mary and Joseph with baby Jesus. The rest of us gather around then and sing Christmas

Carols and read the Christmas story."

Will the winners please email me with your snail mail addresses and let me know your 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice of pendant so I, hopefully, can send one you will like.
