HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MY BLOGGING BUDDIES
TO CELEBRATE ~ I'M HAVING A CONTEST!
PLEASE HELP ME SPREAD THE WORD...
Opening a new website has been wonderful and very exciting. But with the holiday rush, I haven't had as much time to spread the word as I would have liked. So I am having a contest to do just that. Will you help me spread the word? There is a GREAT prize for you if you enter and win.
Here are the simple rules.
1. Go to my new website: www.Eleganceandwhimsy.com and take a look around to get a feel of the site so you will have something to blog about.
2. Take my new banner and use it in your blog post and tell everyone what you love/like about it then while linking the banner back to my website (www.eleganceandwhimsy.com).
3. Add my banner to your Favorite Links page on your website. I will be happy to reciprocate on my Favorite Shoppes page.

ReplyDeleteHi! I'm new to your blog and shop. I wish I could remember what site I found you on, but I've been blog hopping and can't remember! Your store is lovely and I LOVE the intro!!! I've blogged about your giveaway on my "giveaway post". You can see it here. Best wishes to you for the New Year!!
ReplyDeleteCathy, count me in, honey!! I'm doing a special "logo" though using your W&E logo from the website. I'm putting it in a blog post and also in the sidebar so it will be seen until Jan. 17 and not get lost in the shuffle. Give me tonight to finish it and you'll see it.

I have blogged about the new store with the banner and link. My site is down for some bizarre reason today , but as soon as it is back online I will add your banner to favorite links. Keep up all of the great "lovelies" you have been creating.
