giveaway treats


that time of year is upon us......the time for pumpkins, apple bobbing, hay rides......and trick-or-treats!!  i've never been so much into tricks......i've always been a treats kinda gal.  especially where chocolate is concerned.  or candy corn.  so i pulled out these little tags and bags i made last year......



and decided to add this spooky guy to the mix.....
meet my "going-batty-thumbat"!   
this year, the tag is much larger in size (about 4.75" x 2.25").....and it may just be a little too large.....but i made some a little smaller, and somehow his wacky-goofy-eyes and little i-want-chocolate-now-fangs got lost......and let's face it, if you're gonna do treats, you may as well do them large, right?!!



so with treats in mind, i'm celebrating my 300th follower*  (woo hoo!!) and giving away not one, not two, but three sets of these tags and bags.....that's five of the candy corn tags, and five of the thumbat tags,  along with ten twist ties and ten plastic bags to put all of your sweet goodies inside.  
(sorry, candy corn not included......i already ate all of that....)

to participate, just leave a comment on this post by midnight saturday (the 16th)!  
(one comment per person, and please make sure i can contact you!!
also, you must be at least 18 years old since i'll need to ask you for your address if your name is chosen!)
i'll use the random integer to choose three names and announce it on sunday!!!

*i'm celebrating reaching 300 followers.....which means that i'm really celebrating YOU!!  thank you SO much to each and every one of you for treating me to your sweet comments and bloggy love every time you stop by for a visit!!!  i will always be searching, but feel like i'll never really be able to fully express my gratitude for your heartfelt encouragement and support of my artwork!!!  
consider yourself bear hugged three hundred times!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  35. ok...could your batty.thumbprint.guy be any cuter...?
    no.
    no he could not.
    confession time here dear lori...
    as much as i LOVE chocolate, i am a HUGE candy corn freak. i will only eat them around halloween..{ok, and maybe a bit towards thanksgiving as well.}
    but today i made gooey caramel corn and just because you can never get tooo sugary sweet...i dumped in a bag of those precious yellow, white and orange treasures.
    {now i have a tummy ache}
    but it was worth it.
    xo
