The big fifty giveaway

This giveaway is closed.


K, are you excited as I am? I don't think that's possible. But any way...

Can you believe it? The long awaited giveaway is here.

The big fifty.

I still don't think I can.
And this isn't any old giveaway. This is something a lot more special. Fifty followers isn't something you see every day. There's gotta be a call for celebration.
I actually never expected to get this far. Of course I always talked about the day when I'd have the fifty followers, just like every one else had, but it never exactly entered my mind that I really and truly would. That that many people would be interested in my life. At least not in a year and a half of blogging!
But enough talking about that, let's get on with the giveaway shall we?

As I mentioned before, 50 followers isn't normal. I also mentioned that this giveaway is going to be special. Super special. And fantastic. And totally wonderful.
Because, I don't have just one sponsor, or two, or even three, but FOUR awesome sponsors! And 5 lovelies to win out of that! You are all going to love what is on offer here. I'm extremely jealous.

Roses and Bluebells' first lovely you could win is this gorgeous necklace donated by Sarah from Isla Creations.



Also, Sarah has donated this pair of earrings as another prize.




Next up is this beautiful photo collage, photographed, made and donated by Briahna of Diamonds and Pearls. (she just lost her old blog actually, and has started a new one. there's not really any posts on it, and it's not fully back to normal, but if you had seen her old blog, you would so follow her any way!)

 
 

Then this beautiful, handmade card donated by Annie from A Cardmaker's Diary: Snippets and Scraps.
 




And to finish with, an entire blog design package donated by Briony of Katie's Korner! Worth $25! A new design to brighten up your blog, give it a bit of a new look.  
 

Ok,  here's how to win.

  13. Holly, this giveaway is AWESOME! Congratulations on the big 50 :)
    I follow you (obviously) and I love your blog. I love your pictures and all the details! And the design is fantastic. Also, I feel really bad because I never explained about the Bible Bee.
    It's a competition over the summer where I memorize about 500 Bible verses at a local Bible Bee, and then if my score is in the top 100, I make it to the nationals at a special location where you compete for $50,000! It's a really neat competition. Unfortunately, I didn't make it to the nationals this year, but I still had lots of fun. Hopefully all that made sense!

  19. Ooh, EXCITING! Congratulations on reaching 50 followers, Holly! I'm not surprised, your blog is so lovely! My favourite thing about it would be the design, and I love how it is all so elegantly simple and your sidebar isn't packed to the limit, like some are! Actually, I love everything about your blog. :)

  27. @ Elizabeth: I'm sorry, but there's no evidence that you follow my blog. I've often wondered why, and your following picture is not on my follower's gadget bar. So you can't actually enter until you follow, Eebee. Probably just a mistake you made and thought you did. But the comment won't count until you do!

  28. Congratulations on 50 followers! Wow! I don't have many on my blog. How long have you been blogging, anyway Holly? On my blog I have been going for 1 nearly 2 years. Blogging is sooo exciting, don't you think?
