I Got An Award!

I met some wonderful fellow bloggers during the Operation Write Home Be My Valentines Blog Hop and one of those wonderful ladies, njgramma from Grammie's Craft Room, honored me today by passing along the "Stylish blogger Award" to me.  How lovely!!  Thank you so much for thinking of me!

So, in accepting this award, I have a few duties to fulfill:

1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this
2. Share 8 things about yourself
3. Pay it forward to 8 bloggers that you have recently discovered
4. Contact those bloggers and tell them about their awards.
***
So, I'll start with the 8 things about me:  #1 - I share my craft room with one particularly aloof and much adored Himalayan-mix cat, LilyBelle:

2.  I am a big fan of horror movies and used to attend horror movie conventions where I met (have pics & autographs to prove it - ;) Linda Blair, Bruce Campbell, Dee Wallace Stone, Danny Trejo, Sid Haig,   George A. Romero ..oh I could go on...but I've bored you enough - ha! ha!

3. My favorite color is pink

4.  I *love* to plan parties, weddings, baby showers, but I rarely host parties for myself.

5.  I have a phobia of open water

6.  I *love* Indian food

7.  I did not see the ocean until I was 25 - that was just last year - *JOKING*

8.  Fall is my favorite time of year but I love snow and I don't like the heat!

Now, for the pay-it-forwards!  I have had the pleasure of  "e-meeting" these talented women and have enjoyed their creations:

  2. Hi Lisa - I want to THANK YOU for thinking of me and offering such a nice blog award, but sadly I have to pass.

    I've found that for me, typing and being online too long is a huge challenge and too hard with Fibro, it's because of the illness, that I've made it my personal choice, not to accept ANY blog awards. I simply do NOT have the time or energy to follow through with the requirements and can not accept any, because it would not be fair to those who have offered them to me in the past. I'm sorry! :(

    I do however, thank you again for extending me the award and only wish I could play along!!

    Best Wishes and thanks for your understanding!!

    Lis

    PS: On a much happier note, your cards all all looking stunning....as usual! :)

  3. Lisa, I saw this post on my phone before I read your comment at my blog. Thanks so much for thinking of me! I got one of these from someone else a few days before yours, but I'm only thinking up 8 things about myself... :)

  5. Thanks Lisa for thinking of me. It was fun to come up with the 8 things about myself - had to really put on the thinking cap for that one.
