SEASON HOLIDAY & NEW YEAR BEST WISHES

Hello Everyone.....

You're probably wondering where we have been the last while ....

Well, we have been in the back-ground

putting the foundation work for a business that we hope

will surprise and delight you.  

Thought we'd share this little story from Stan & Sharon Miller's

book 'Especially for Mormons' Vol. 1

which brings smiles after an exhausted week.

"The Santa Claus at ZCMI was more than a trifle surprised

when a beautiful young lady about twenty years old

walked up and sat on his lap.

But Santa quickly recovered,

and started talking to the college-type lass.

"And what do you want for Christmas?" asked Santa.

"Something for my mother," said the young lady.

"Well, that's what I called thoughtful," smiled Santa.

"What can I bring for your mother?"

Faking a moment of thought,

the girl brightened,

turned to Santa, and said:

"I'd like for her to get a son-in-law."

Super Beauty-licious Digi Blog Candy

Ok, we're going to make some EXCITING changes here,
AND YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE IT.

So instead of just three GINNIE's, we are offering ... two whole sets of the existing digital stamp images in the Elisabeth Bell Digital Gallery.  There are 8 different character stamp images (Accessories Not Included) from the month of February 2010 to June 2010. 

So what's that in total???? wait, wait, wait .... 

Sixteen... Yes, SIXTEEN!!!  

Would you like to know which ones they are?  

Ok, here goes:  

"February Flutter" ~ "A Tasty Read" ~ "Pat-a-Cake" ~ "Bell Horses: Li'l Princess Tu-tu" ~ "Bell Horses: Li'l Cowboy" ~ "Rachel, Little Angel" ~ "Little Rapunzel" ~ and "Ginnie, Gliding with Butterflies".

The Candy Question that you will need to share your answer with us is:  

"What would you like to see coming from Australia's Elisabeth Bell stamp collections?"  

Of course, anyone can enter, and we will still offer this winning to three randomly selected winners from the entries, as previously mentioned. But please remember you must have an e-mail address so you can download your winning. If you have a blog, please kindly post this Candy on your blog, that would be very nice. Invite friends and family to enter the blog candy giveaway so they too get a chance to create beautiful cards and memoirs with these awesome digital images.

Please remember to read Elisabeth Bell's terms for use of her beautiful digital images, and to adhere to them. We want to keep things fun for everyone!  

Now, the most fun part for you, if you are one of the three winners, is to choose which of the Elisabeth Bell beautiful digital stamp images to download. So instead of winning just one "Ginnie, Gliding with Butterflies' as previously offered, you get to choose several MORE! Woot!!   

So if you are a Bronze or Silver Winner you will get to download 4 Super Beauty-licious Digital Stamp Character Images, and if you are the lucky Gold winner, whoopydooda, you get to download all Eight!

So, start thinkin, everyone, and start dreamin, the blog candy begins in round about 47 hours.  

With Love, 

Elphine House.
