Bloggity Blog - Brief update

Hi all! Just a quick update.

I must first of all apologise profusely for my lack of blogging. This is down to various reasons, the main one being that I'm completely swamped with work at the moment. It is for this reason that I've had to set my Christmas commission deadline to October 31st. This is to ensure that you all recieve your orders in time for the holidays. The date may or may not change, but at the moment it seems highly unlikely that it will. I don't like to mail packages in December at all because half of them tend to go missing for weeks whilst Royal Mail dabble in causing havoc.

So yes! If you need to order something for Christmas, please do it before the 31st. 

Thankin' ya kindly,

Over & Out ;)

And we have winners!

Hi everyone!

First of all I must say, please excuse me if this blog sounds rubbish in any way whatsoever, I've had a crappy headache all day and nothing to take for it until tomorrow, but hopefully it will be gone by then.

So, moving on to more important matters! :)

Again, a huge massive thankyou to each and every one of you who has left a comment. You are all so super sweet and kind and lovely and it's so great to have you all here, the fact that you enjoy my Artwork means the absolute world to me, you have no idea!

I have decided to choose ....not one, but FOUR lucky winners for this giveaway!!! :) Why? Because I have this overwhelming need to send everyone in the world a little something special to make them smile, but unfortunately for me, I don't have the time or the supplies, so I'm choosing four of you. I WISH I could choose ALL of you, but four is better than one, right? :)

So here goes...

My four lucky winners are:

TexasKeri

Jessica Minning

Janet Weidner

Please email me with your postal details. My email address is on the front page of my website - artsandcandies.com

Thankyou again to all who left a comment, all of your words meant so much to me and I will of course have more giveaways in the future! :)

Big hugs to all of you & thankyou for reading.

Heartfelt thanks and Gingerbread people!

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to say  a huge thankyou to everybody who left a comment on my first blog so far.  It absolutely means the world to me that you're here and that you enjoy my creations so much! You have sincerely touched my heart with your words!

I'm not a great Artist, but I do thoroughly enjoy surprising people, making you smile, and most of all, putting a warm glow in your heart when you sit opening your mail! That's the most important and most rewarding thing for me, just knowing how much love I've put into my work and sending a small part of that out there to you guys, all over the world. I love being able to do that! :)
So thankyou, thankyou, thankyou. I love you all!

On another note, it is 2:30am (as I type) Yes, I always stay up this late, and I have an army of Gingerbread ladies in my baking tray, along with an even bigger army of mini Gingerbreads! Matter of fact, the baking tray looks like a Gingerbread maternity wing!












See? :)

I have to make sure that I remember to add some icing to the ladies skirts before they all go in the oven.

The Gingerbreads are all Cab's (Cabochons) which are flat-back items that I create specially for phone covers.  I only started making Cab's a few months ago and I'm really enjoying it, but thats a whole other story for a whole other blog. ;)

Until then....

Sending you all hugs and smiles!

First blog post with added prize giveaway!

Hello there Candy fans! :)

I thought I'd better post something on here, just so that there is a blog to read!
I will be posting more, of course, but this is the first time that I've 'blogged' so I'll probably be rubbish at it! You have been warned! ;)

So I guess I will be discussing all kinds of different things in future blogs. I hope to bring you random thoughts, answers, insight, reviews and of course a whole massive bloggy pile of.... COMPETITIONS & GIVEAWAYS!

Maybe I should start one right now? How would you like to win a surprise prize?! 

Comment below! Introduce yourselves, I'll give out one (maybe two, or three) surprise gifts to some lucky winners! :)

Giveaway will close next sunday (August 5th) 

Can't wait to hear from you all!!!
