Belated Birthday Giveaway

I haven't had a giveaway since forever ago.

I looked up on my labels for Give Away . . . 

Last one was in 2011!

Man, how time flies when you're having fun.

I tell you, my mind has been mush for a few weeks.

When I looked at the heart picture,

that went with my posting from yesterday,

 I realized . . .

DUH . . you could have 

a Birthday/Early Valentines Day Giveaway.

So here we go . . . 

You will have two options -

This heart

Didn't realize I cropped this lopsided . . . LOLOL

Or you tell me the colors you want

and I will make the heart

to your color specifications.

What do you have to do?

 1. You must be a follower here or on Facebook

2. Leave a comment on this post.

3. You may enter once a day, each day of the contest 

by leaving a comment on THIS post . . . every comment is an entry. 

4. And last but not least, 

I would appreciate your adding a link to this Give-Away on your blog.

Let The Games Begin!

Fur~Babies Christmas Give~Away

I NEED to have a Christmas Give~Away.

Don't you think?

Here is what I decided . .

I will make a

"Semi" custom made

 Cat or Dog Paw Stocking.

I think they are so adorable

that I would like to share the wealth with others.

 

Fish come with and without bubbles . . .
your choice.



I like the smaller/diagonally placed bones better.
If you like the HUGE one, let me know.

Now, you may ask,

"C & CS Slut . . . just what is "Semi" custom made."

My Answer, "By making a the stocking

"Semi" custom made you get to pick the

stocking, pad and bone/fish colors

as long as they are in the Christmas red, green,

beige, white, Winter blue (light) colors.

So, you pick the colors

and I make the stocking."

I use Vanna's Choice,

I like her shades

AND

my hands don't dry out

using this yarn.

So, now you are saying,

"Man, Slut, you sure talk a lot.

Would you GET TO THE POINT!"

All You Need To Know

1. You must be a follower.

2. Only allowed one entry per person

and it MUST BE on this post.

2. Tell me if you want

a Cat or a Dog Stocking.

3. Tell me the colors you prefer.

(The more exact, the better...

ie. red front and back,

 green pads,

white fish outlined in green,
white bubbles.

top border a mixture of red, green and white. )

4. Post a link to this give~away

on your blog, if you have one.

5. Entry starts at the time I post this

and ends midnight, (EST)

Sunday, November 20th.

The winner will be announced

Monday, November 21st.

6. I will have the stocking on the mail

no later than November 30th.

Now,

Let the Christmas Give~Away Begin.
