Yep...as promised, I am back with the details for my giveaway celebrating my "300(+) Followers"! Details below...but first I am going to show you a cute little gift box that I made for Corie to give to her friend (THANKS, Corie, I think you are one of my biggest fans!). What says, "Thinking of You" better than cookies, right? Kelli said she thought this might have been my best set yet, and I have to say, I was pretty pleased at how it came out!
Whatch'a think...kind of cute, huh? See those cute little flowers that are on the bird house and branch...come back next week and I will show you how I made them. Easy Peasy! The bird and branch were both hand cut because I did not have a cutter...next time I would do it a little differently and attach the leaves to the branch before baking...they were a complete afterthought on this set
but I still think it turned out cute!
Okay, so I know you have stayed with me this long to hear about the "giveaway", right? We are going to make it super simple, but first I will show you what is up for grabs. One box of cookies, like the samples below in the theme of your choice. (Amount of cookies varies by how big the cookies you have chosen are). You can have them sent to yourself or surprise a friend...it's up to you but the recipient must live in the U.S.
Now remember, these are just samples...you can pick any theme that I have cutters for (that would be about 450 to choose from)!
Two ways to enter:
1. Leave a comment on this post and you are entered to win!
2. If you have left a comment on my blog in the LAST MONTH, leave me a second comment telling me this as well! Lucky you...you now have two chances to win.
That's it! To all my daughter's friends who "lurk" but don't leave comments (yep, you know who you are...shame on you!) I expect to see some comments from you this time around! Contest runs through Friday, July 15th...winner to be drawn and announced on Saturday, July 16th. I am going to make it easy for you this time...if you leave your email, I will contact you. If you do not, then I will announce the winner and you must contact me within 24 hours or I will redraw a name (and yes, it has happened in the past!)
Good luck all...have a great weekend and Happy Baking!
There's a skinny girl who lives inside of me that's screaming to get out...I can usually shut her up with cookies!

okay...I will admit- I am a lurking admirer. You make such amazing cookies, they make me want to bake my own. Better yet, they make me CRAVE a delicious sugar cookie. They are truly a work of art.

Your cookies are awesome! I can't wait to try to make some myself soon. But I'd love to win!
I'll try to be a more active commenter as I usually just come and silently enjoy what you have going on!

You're as sweet as can be! I know exactly who could use a box of your cookies, hope I win!
I commented earlier this week. Love that I get two chances to win.
I'm pretty sure I'M your biggest fan - I've just eaten THREE of those Starbucks cookies in about two minutes - my big FAT ASS thanks you!! LOL Seriously, dude, those cookies were amazing. I just posted some pics of them on my blog, and sent the measly few followers that I have on my blog over to you to enter to win. Congrats on the 300+ followers - here's the hoping you get another 300+ this weekend! Love you and miss you boat loads!! P.S. I agree with Kelli - those birdy cookies are TO FREAKIN' DIE FOR CUTE!!!!!
OH...........MY..........LANDS!!!!!! Karolyn sent me...and am I EVER jealous of her!!!! These cookies are so absolutely fabulously gorgeously and YUMMILY (I make up my own words! LOL) delicious looking and adorable!!!! I'm now a stalker...err...follower of your blog!!! ***grin***
I just found your blog a couple of days ago and am still reading all the past posts - I love your cookies - they are all so adorable, and to think, you are just on the other side of the valley from me (I live in Peoria). I would even come pick up my prize, so pick me, pick me! My email address is daisykl@cox.net
P.S.S. How do you know you have 300+ followers? They're invisible, right?! At least I can't see them - can you? I think you're making that shiz up! LOL
Hi Valley of the Sun neighbor! You have such sweet talent (pardon the pun)LOL! Karolyn sent me and I'm sure glad she did! Your cookies are AMAZING! :) WOWZERS.
Those cookies look fabulous! Would love to win a set. :

I just found your blog via a pin in pinterest by someone I know. Your cookies look amazing. After looking at your blog it makes me want to go bake and decorate some cookies. I just added you to the blogs I follow in Reader.
You are so talented. I love the Starbucks cookies that Karolyn posted, fabulous. Julie
Must.Have.Cookies.! ;) If Karolyn says they are da'bomb...then they must be!!! :) They are adorable...ALL OF THEM! I will be following you and your cookies!
What a surprise to read about Karolyn's lousy day and how a sweet friend made her day with a package of Starbucks cookies!! You have to be a great woman with a big heart, and I like your style. How can I order some for friends and family? They are better than Cookies by Design, which I order from for special people in my life. LOVED the bird and house cookies since I am a bird lover too. Please put me on the give away list.

Terri, I received the cookies and let me just say - YUMMO! I have 3 children, so each received one of the coffee cups and then my husband and I shared the circle. I was really hoping that my kids would not like the cookies so that I would get to have more :>) Unfortunately for me, they loved the cookies. My one son who I affectionately call a cookie monster was repeating mmmm, mmm, mmm, the entire time he was eating the cookie.
Such a light almond flavor and delicious cookie with great texture. Plus, you top it all off with your amazing decorating skills. I am really running out of adjectives :>)
I will be sharing it all on my blog tomorrow. Only wish I had taken a picture of my kiddos with the cookies, but they were gone too fast!!!
oh my, your cookies look amazing! thanks for a chance to win a set of yummo!
i am lurker. you cookies are beautiful
Mmm, kind of wish I had some cookies now....cookies for breakfast would be great!!!:)
I am an aspiring cookie decorator, and have been visiting your blog for inspiration for months now . . . would love a chance to win and sample the "real deal!"
I'm back :>) Thanks for the second chance and thanks of course for the sweet little box I received in the mail!
I would love to win the cookies...

Oh my, I am so inspired by your blog! I found you initially from a link to the cute kitchen that you re-purposed from an entertainment center. We have 4 girls, ages 3-13 and I love showing them your pics of cookies and stuff.
Hummm...450 to choose from??? If I win and can't make up my mind, can I have one of each?
I use your sugar cookie recipe and love it! Also, your craft room is to die for.
