Ribbon Blog Candy!


This is a picture of my new ribbon storage. Got the jars at Walmart for around $3 each.

I have been planning to do blog candy since I hit 10,000. I have been collecting ribbon for a long time. In my blog candy package is ribbon I got in Paris, France and ribbon I bought in Hawaii, along with 34 different ribbons and fibers from all over! Some lengths are 1/2 yard to 10 yards. Quite a variety!

All you have to do is leave a comment with links to your 3 favorite stamping blogs (please, no other kinds of blogs) and at least a first name before midnight PST on Sept. 8. Please choose the best of the best as I have plans for those links in the future. On Sept. 9 I will draw from all the names and will post that here so the winner can send me their snail mail addy to receive their gift of ribbon!!

US stampers only, please.
