Frosty Festivities Announcement and Giveaway!

It's time to announce my next (free!) blog event: 'Frosty Festivites'! Read on for details, and enter to win a My Mind's Eye 'All is Bright' Collection Kit!


On Friday 16th November – Sunday 18th November I will be holding a Blog Event called ‘Frosty Festivities’. Over that weekend there will be posts every hour from 4pm-10pm Friday, and 10am-10pm Saturday and Sunday (GMT), all on the theme of 'Winter' including tips, tutorials, challenges, crafts, a blog hop, and lots of giveaways. The photo above shows you a mere snippet of  the projects and prizes!

I really hope you'll be able to join me for the weekend. The giveaways will stay open until Monday (19th November 2012) at 10.59pm GMT, so if you're away for the weekend you'll have Monday to try and catch up! The challenges will be open until the following Sunday (25th November 2012) too!


I've been getting very excited about it, especially as this event will have a couple of new developments:
  1. This time there will be a 'Frosty Festivities' Forum for the weekend, and for the week following, so anyone reading the posts or joining in can also chat amongst themselves! I shall be available on there as much as possible to answer any questions you may have as well.
  2. After the weekend has finished, there will be a Frosty Festivities PDF download available, containing lots of the weekend's projects from myself and the blog hop participants. This won't be available until the giveaways have closed, so you'll still need to visit over the weekend to have a chance of winning the prizes and to chat along! But if you can't make the weekend, or you want to be able to look back on all the projects easily, then you'll be able to download the PDF for future perusal!
What do you think? It should be fun! And to get the buzz going, I have a giveaway to ask whether you're excited about the weekend, and to encourage you to tell others about the event! You could win this My Mind's Eye 'All is Bright' Collection Kit (I LOVE this collection!):

I bought this kit from SJ Crafts - see more My Mind's Eye products in the store here!

Please note: To enter this giveaway you do have to click on the Rafflecopter Widget below. Just leaving a blog comment won't enter you - you need to then click on rafflecopter to say you've done so, and to say you've completed other options like sharing this post on Facebook or Pinterest for more entries! Of course you can also comment and share without entering the giveaway if you wish!



One winner will be chosen at random from all entries, after the Giveaway closes at 12.01am EST on Thursday 15th November - the winner will be announced here later that day!

Thanks so much for reading, I'll look forward to seeing you here on the 16th of November! Are you excited about the Frosty Festivities event? x
