My Blog Candy: In Aid Of Cancer Research UK

*****This post will remain on the top until 24th June 2011, Please scroll down for new posts.*****

I wish to celebrate gaining 200 followers. I am very proud of this.  I also wish to celebrate my wedding, although it is very late. This candy is worth £70.00, plus the stamped images makes it even more worthwhile and you can win all this for free!

I have never seen a blog candy for charity, and I have no idea how this is going to turn out. So I am going to give it a shot and let's see what happens.
Although the above image shows some stamped images. These are the ones I have managed to stamp so far. I will also include 50 plus stamped images in Memento Tuxedo Black ink for one lucky winner.

Blog Candy Includes:
Papermania Embossing Folders - Stars (worth £2.99)
Wild Rose Studio Printable Papers On CD Spring (worth £14.99)
Wild Rose Studio Printable Papers On CD Christmas (worth £14.99)
Basic Grey Paper Pad - Oliver (worth £4.99)
Basic Grey Paper Pad - Olivia (worth £4.99)
Basic Grey Paper Pad - Lime Rickey (worth £4.99)
Penny Black Stamp - Owl Be Yours (worth £6.65)
Fizzy Moon Stamp - Bunch (worth £3.99)
Wild Rose Studio -  Molly In The Snow (worth £4.99)
Memento Ink Pad - London Fogg (worth £4.75)

To win this Candy, you must do at least the following three:
1. Become a Follower of my Blog. If you already a follower, please say so in your comment thread.

2. Make a post about this candy on your blog with a link back to my blog and a list of items in the blog.

3. Add your name to the comments to this post only


TO INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING:


Please leave me a comment for each task done so I can add this to my list and will jumble up the list, so there is not a block of entries by one user and then draw the winner on 10th July. So everyone as an equal chance of winning. I will be checking.
1. To Gain An Additional Four Entries - Add a picture of this blog candy in your side bar.
2. To Gain An Additional Four Entries - Become a fan of my facebook page by clicking here.
3. To Gain An Additional 15 Entries - Purchase a card through Etsy or Win a bid of any of my items in my Ebay Shop.
Which means by spending £2 minimum in my shop, you can increase your chances of getting £70 worth of goodies. Where else can you get a chance of getting £70 of goodies for just £2, plus all your money will go to Charity and there is no limit to the number of purchases and entries you can make this way.
I know most of you are crafters, but please do dig deep. It is for Cancer Research UK.
If you or a friend or family member of yours makes a purchase, that will also gain you an additional 10 entries, just please let me know the name of the purchaser with a comment here so I can award you your entries.
If the total on Ebay exceeds £10, you will gain an additional entry for each £1 over the £10 mark. For instance, if the total including P&P is £14, you will gain a total of 19 entries instead of 15.

The Total cards sold online, at work, or elsewhere at a stall on 28th May will be donated to Cancer Research UK. The most I have ever made for Cancer Research UK in an event has been £100. For this month, I wish to beat this amount. Lets make it happen, and smash the £100 mark.

Note: Because I sell my cards through a variety of ways and places, it is easier for me to keep a running total of amount I have sold, then donate it on 10th June online. Therefore I have not put it through automatically on Ebay.

I will announce the total raised and provide proof of the money donated to Cancer Research UK on 10th June.

EDIT - If you do not have a blog, you can still have a chance of winning by gaining entries through card purchases, becoming a fan of my facebook page. However to make it fair to those who do have blog you will only gain half the number of entries as a blogger.
