Some Housekeeping items {RAKs & Blog Candy}

First, I have a long & overdue THANK YOU to Tracy over at Enchantasy. She was the winner of my first (ever) blog candy and sent me this adorable card and bookmark. How cute is she?

Today, my mailbox had some wonderful goodies from Elizebeth at eBethonline! My daughter, Isabella immediately grabbed the necklace and put it on- she is in love! This card is absolutely stunning and I am so glad that I ordered this SU set last week- I cannot wait to use it and Elizebeth has given me a wonderful inspiration piece to work from!

Finally, I owe my lovely & loyal readers my final installment of Blog Candy for my Seattle Shoppin' Extravaganza. I don't have another store to feature, so I came up with another idea. I will ask all of you to GUESS how many stamps I will come home with from Seattle-should be interesting. I will post the details {candy} when I return! Looking forward to all of your guesses!
ETA: The winner of the correct guess will be announced on Tuesday, September 11th. Please be sure to look at all of the comments & have an original guess. Good luck!

I had got all my soldering supplies and whipped it up and found the pearls and jewelry findings and just hoped it would be a 'twinkly treasure' for her.

Happy shopping, it's gonna be so much fun!

I'm guessing an average of 8-10 stamps per store...Monkey Love, Impress, Paper Zone, Rubber Soul, A-muse, gosh - that's only some of the great shopping...I'll guess 50 stamps!

Elaine said...

You should have people guess HOW MUCH you'll spend at stamp stores!! Don't forget Michael's, Joann Superstores, Ben Franklin, etc!! There is also a store in Kirkland - I think it is called Standing room only?? And Friends in West Seattle...dang! I wish I could go with you!! I'll be here but working!! :(

Ijsbeer said...

Suzanne said...

I am going to guess 30. Thank you for the chance!

Linda SS said...

27 stamps??? I'm sure you are having a ball - wish I was there too:)

I'm going to go for an even 25. After all there has to be some damage control. If it were me I'd go to Seattle with the intention of buying 15 and then stretching it that extra 10 because they are too hard to resist. HAVE FUN!

The Cryer Family said...

Really love this so much!!
P.S. 33?

Anonymous said...

How about 20 new stamps?

Kirstin said...

I am gonna say 33...has that been taken already???

jodene said...

Betty said...

Have lots of fun! I will miss you! I guess 19.

Anonymous said...

Looks like all the 20's have already been taken, so I'll go a bit on the low end with 18.

Anonymous said...

I will say 40 although that does sound like a lot. But you've been planning this trip for awhile so I am assuming you have been saving up for quite a spending spree. I'd have to take out a 2nd mortgage on our house if I bought that many:)

Tanis said...

Does this include my stamps, because that is 6 right there!
But, just for you, I am going to guess that you bring home at least 14 sentiment ones, as I know you can really never have enough of those!

sundance7 said...

I'm going to guess 29! Thanks for sharing!

Latisha said...

Well it depends if you buy any sets, and if you do there could be 12-20 in just one set. I'm going to say 31. I really want to go higher but I will stick with that number.

I'm so glad Mr. Elephant showed up in your mail box! I was just wondering about that today!
I am going to guess 37... it is soooooooooo hard to guess!
hugs, Tracy
