First off- thank you for making this happen! I put together this celebration for the 15,000 followers in my TpT store (now almost 16,000!). You all are so amazing and I seriously just pinch myself that that many people would care about what comes out of my sketch book.<br />
<br />
If you have checked out my little (big) information pack explaining everything about my Fabulous Five Celebration, make sure you check it out<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/FABULOUS-5-FREEBIE-INFORMATION-Creative-Clips-Digital-Clipart-1406388" target="_blank"> {HERE}</a>.<br />

Next, if you haven't "liked" my Facebook page: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheCreativeChalkboard" target="_blank">The Creative Chalkboard</a>- hop over and do that because that is where all five-days of giveaways will be going down :) </div>
<br />
Each day, I will post a daily map that looks like the one below. That way you will know what is going on and what is being offered each day. It sounds confusing (or at least I'm having trouble sounding clear about it :) but it's not that bad, promise :) Some of the deals are only up for 1 day, so check for the daily map so you don't miss out on anything!<br />
<br />
Here is Monday! Cheers to another 15,000 followers! I hope this will be a fun week for everyone!<br />

I'd say YES!I am blogging quick to let you know about the HUGE Giveaway I am having on my Facebook page <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheCreativeChalkboard" target="_blank">{Click here if you haven't discovered the party going on at my Facebook page}</a>.<br />
<br />
Day #10 Giveaway is 12 sets of clipart- One of my favorite sets from each of the 12 months of the year!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Check. it. out!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pVYJkZ0NDz4/U02m6T3tM0I/AAAAAAAAClw/fppcGrq9tTw/s1600/Slide1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pVYJkZ0NDz4/U02m6T3tM0I/AAAAAAAAClw/fppcGrq9tTw/s1600/Slide1.jpg" height="640" width="480" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I love seeing all the holiday sets together because at this point in the year, I sometimes forget about my favorites from Halloween and Christmas!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, here's the deal. Hop on over to my FB page and make sure you comment on the giveaway post with your email. I will be selecting 1 winner for every 100 entries. For example: 100 entries = 1 winner. 500 entries=5 winners and so on. Can I let you in on a tiny secret? I really want to get 1000 people commenting to win this giveaway because I have never had that many people comment on a post or giveaway. I'm all for trying to push myself and set new records! Plus- that would be 10 winners which means I would be giving away 120 sets of clipart total! Love it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now, your job. Go enter! Don't miss it! The giveaway run from now until Friday (April 18th) evening. At that time I will announce the winners on my FB and on here :) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Please promote this giveaway! The only reason why my clipart was even discovered was because of supportive friends like you who spread the word on your blog, etc. The more people who enter, the more winners!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A couple of other things.....while you are over at my FB page, make sure you "like" my page so you can snatch up this ENTIRE FREE SET of Little Buggies. If you don't click on "like" on my Facebook page, this freebie won't show up and be available to you for downloading. Gotta like to get :)</div>

Thanks for making the last 10 days of my 10,000 Follower Celebration such a fun time for me! I've decided 15,000 Followers will be my next big giveaway. Waiting for 20,000 is just too long to do this again! Good luck to everyone who enters the giveaway! Thanks for all your support and sweet comments.</div>

I was so flattered and shocked when Alison Funk over at A Tale of 2 First Grades asked me about running a link party all about Creative Clips Clipart and using it in freebies. I was/am so excited!!!! She thought it would be a great way to continue celebrating my 10,000 followers and also share the freebie love. The linky party is open until Wed and is a great way to share some your freebies and grab some too! Freebies must be created mostly with my Creative Clips Clipart- although I know there are a ton of other cute clipart artists out there and I don't blame you for squeezin' some in!<br /><br />You can read more about it over at their blog: <a href="http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fataleof2firstgrades.blogspot.com%2F2014%2F04%2Fcreative-freebies-with-creative-clips.html&h=NAQHV05jI&s=1" rel="nofollow nofollow" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://ataleof2firstgrades.blogspot.com/2014/04/creative-freebies-with-creative-clips.html</a><br /><br />Find a freebie in your store, or use some of the freebies this week to create something that you think would be helpful for others! It can be as simple as themed writing pages for a prompt or a motivational bookmark and certificate. Spread the freebie love and hop on over to link up and share!<br /><br />Thanks again Alison for contacting me about such an amazing idea!</span></span><br />

Oh My!Goodness! I need to find time to blog more because when I was trying to think of the "focus" of this blogpost, I quickly realized that there are just about 145 things that I want to share with all of you from the past few weeks. I am going to offer you a *SUPER* summarized version- so all of you who thought you were in for a marathon post can breathe a sigh of relief :) You know how I can ramble sometimes.<br />
<br />
First- FREEBIE! I just posted my Unwrap your Valentine Freebie with a little bit of love for my awesome followers in my TpT store. This isn't going to be a series like Christmas- not because I don't love you that much, but because I just don't have time to swing it right now. I included a variety of images in this one, so hopefully it will come in handy in the upcoming month :)<br />

Yesterday marked the end of my very first Creative Clips Club (January)! I was sad to retire this little baby, but very excited to take the awesome feedback from all of you and my survey to go to town with future sets. All the stuff you loved will continue and I will be making a few changes based on what other things you would like to see! Since the January Club is officially over and not available in my store anymore, I am going to review the sets that members received. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There was also a set of BONUS frames that I included for my very first members of these clubs. I plan on adding a bonus set to future months if I have a certain number of members join by the end of that month. I haven't QUITE decided on what that number will be, so it will be a surprise after you join!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Third- I have been creating like crazy! I made a list of all the sets that I want to make and there are almost 100 ideas on my list right now! Ahh when will I be able to finish all those!

This is a HUGE DEAL and includes over 160 images! This set will only be available for 2 weeks before it is retired for 6 months, so act fast....okay here is whatcha get!<br />
<br />
This HUGE Seller Mega Bundle includes 12 different sets that are worth $36.00 if I priced them individually. At this time, these sets are not sold in my store individually and are only available in this bundle.<br />
<br />
This bundle is perfect to jumpstart your TpT store or to grab a fresh batch of elements, borders, digital papers and frames for your projects! These sets all coordinate together and also match the other clipart sets offered in my store.<br />
<br />
This set will be priced at $10.00 for the first week it is for sale (until 1/01/14). The second week, it will go up to $12.00 (until 1/08/14). So make sure you snatch it up this week and get it for less than a dollar per set!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's a closer look at over the 160+ elements you can get for just $10.00!</div>

<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span>
</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: cyan; font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">PROBLEM SOLVED! There is a way you can have that excitement each week, EVERY MONTH OF THE YEAR!</span><br />
<span style="background-color: cyan; font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">I am excited to announce and offer my monthly memberships of exclusive graphics! If you enjoyed my Unwrap Your Freebie series, you will love this opportunity to get a set of graphics each week for a month! </span><span style="line-height: 16px;">Each week (around Tuesday or Wednesday), I will add a new graphics set to this download.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br style="line-height: 16px;" /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: cyan; font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">Here’s the run down on how these sets will work:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br style="line-height: 16px;" /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: cyan; font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">* They follow the same terms of use as my other clipart sets, so you are free to use them for personal or commercial use. Please give credit with a link to my store in your credits page and/or my Creative Clips logo.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br style="line-height: 16px;" /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: cyan; font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">* Each set will include both color and black and white of all images.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br style="line-height: 16px;" /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: cyan; font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">* Only members of each monthly club will have immediate access to these clipart sets. I will be posting these sets to my store three months after the month they were featured in. Therefore, you get a three-month jump on creating original resources before they are offered to anyone else. Each set will be priced between $3.00-$4.50 in my store- so your monthly membership gets you a BIG DISCOUNT!</span><br />
<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br style="line-height: 16px;" /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: cyan; font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">* Each month will include a variety of sets including seasonal images, borders, year-round graphics and elements.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br style="line-height: 16px;" /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: cyan; font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">If you enjoy this monthly membership, please check out my other monthly memberships so you can have a weekly surprise to look forward to for the entire year! Currently I have January, February and March posted in case you want to get a jump on the action!</span><br />
<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br style="line-height: 16px;" /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: cyan; font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">**If you are joining a month that has not yet begun, when you download, you will only see the Membership Welcome letter. When that month begins, re-download the file each week and you will see a new surprise set added!</span><br />
<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span>
</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: cyan;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">BUT WAIT- there's more! Each monthly membership is $10.00, but I have the first three months posted and on sale for just $8.00 each. They will be on sale through Tuesday night. If you want to grab one and try it out for a month, great! If you want to grab all three while they are on sale because you want three months of surprises ahead of you in the new year, go for it :) I'm very excited for these sets and surprising you all each week :)</span><br /><span style="line-height: 16px;">Off to finish the lessons plans that will keep my kiddos busy for that crazy week before Christmas break :) </span></span></span><br />

This poor little blog has been neglected for a WHILE. In my defense, I have been working extra hard on clipart and teaching my little second graders this year. However, it's been pretty much 2 months since my last post. Sooo if you don't remember me, I won't take it personally :)<br />
<br />
Welp- I'm back with a lot of news to share and I want to start off with a fun freebie series that I am starting for the holidays. First of all, everyday I am more and more blown away by the sweet feedback and support that people give me and my clipart. Your kind comments about my art can turn my day around in the same way that a Dairy Queen cookie dough blizzard can....and that is saying a lot :)<br />
<br />
So, I thought it would be fun to kick off the holiday season with a little thank you. I know that the holidays get crazy for all of us and sometimes a little freebie (or a series of freebies) can help lessen the blow of holiday stress, christmas expenses and the large amount of money you might be spending on Starbuck's seasonal drink choices ;) or maybe that is just me.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I give you my <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Unwrap-your-FREEBIE-Creative-Clips-Digital-Clipart-969174" target="_blank">"Unwrap your Freebie"</a> holiday freebie series...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Unwrap-your-FREEBIE-Creative-Clips-Digital-Clipart-969174" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-V9MT1h5b_Dk/Un_IUvrUuvI/AAAAAAAACUI/uK5cgjBPRT8/s640/Creative+Clips_Unwrap+Your+Freebie+Cover.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Kids aren't the only ones that get excited as they unwrap a present and wait to find out what's inside. Although I still kind of consider myself a kid (even though I turned 26 last week....whoa), I figure other people probably feel the same way.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Some of the freebies will be holiday-related, others will be clipart that you can use year round. Who knows, I might even bust out an entire FREE clipart set just to keep you guys guessing :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Bottom line, I hope you all know how much your support with my clipart means to me and I hope I can give you a few smiles back in return as you "unwrap" your presents this season. No joke, I'm super excited to see what you all think of the freebies than I can express. Giving presents is fun too!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Cheers to kickin' off the holiday season with something that won't cost you a dime! :) </div>

Quick post- I just added 28 additional images to my Limited Edition BRIGHT Kids, Scribbles and Elements set. That brings the total to 136 images for $5.00!<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RwOkaxIJPBk/Uivzer_hgbI/AAAAAAAACSA/SdacWYhGp0Y/s1600/Creative+Clips_BRIGHT+Limited+Edition+Add+On+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RwOkaxIJPBk/Uivzer_hgbI/AAAAAAAACSA/SdacWYhGp0Y/s640/Creative+Clips_BRIGHT+Limited+Edition+Add+On+copy.jpg" width="492" /></a><br />
Because I just added the additional images, the set will be available until the end of Tuesday 9/10. After that, it will be retired until next summer. Don't miss it!<br />
<br />
If you have already purchased and downloaded this set, please download the revised copy and there will be an additional folder of "add-on images" in the download. Thanks for all your support during my first Limited Edition endeavor!<br />

Here is a quick peek out our first week in Rm 124!<br />
<br />
First of all, my kiddos were great! That being said, I am still exhausted at the end of ever day and repeated my directions more times than I can count. Oi vey! Can it be October already?! However, for it being the first four days of school, these kids were troopers!<br />
<br />
We did a lot of "back to school" activities and not surprisingly, I over-planned- hoping to fit in all the fun back to school lessons, games, and books that I found. I still think we got through quite a bit though!<br />
<br />
In no specific order, here's a few Peeks at Last Week :)<br />
<br />
We read some of my favorite back to school books including <u>First Day Jitters</u> and <u>My Mouth is a Volcano</u>. No first day would be complete without making Jitter Juice from Abby Mullins <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Super-in-Second-Beginning-of-the-Year-Activities-for-2nd-Grade-145341" target="_blank">Super in Second </a> pack!<br />

The kiddos worked hard on some hot air balloon writing craftivities (which I will post pictures of when we finish them up next week!) that focused on goal setting in second grade. We also did a quick writing piece on Thursday called "Full of Smiles after my First Week." We talked about synonyms for "great" and the kiddos came up with a TON to describe their first week. Okay, it's confession time. I had <i>planned </i>on doing a balloon launch at the end of the week to tie into our hot air balloon writing, but environmental concerns got in my way! So, I had already set my heart on having 19 balloons in my classroom on Friday, so I had to get creative quick. Hence, the quick writing piece at the end of the week to justify me getting the kids THESE:</div>

It actually worked out great because the kids did MORE writing than I planned. Here's two of them!</div>

This is the first year that I am planning on doing Bucket Fillers with my kiddos. We read the book and did a BUNCH of activities from Ashley Reed's <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Bucket-Filler-Brigade-262613" target="_blank">Bucker Filler Brigade Pac</a>k. </div>

We did this little group sort from Ashley's pack to compare the actions of Bucket Fillers and Bucket Dippers. There were so many great activities in this pack that really helped my kiddos get an understanding of bucket fillers. I think it is also going to help them explain how they are feeling. I already had some kiddos talking about what "empties their bucket" and how their bucket was "overflowing" after their first week in second grade! How cute are they!?</div>

I have started my third year of teaching, in my third grade level change (this year I am teaching second grade) and I survived my first week with the kiddos! School started for me on Monday, but thanks to a little thing called Labor Day, I have a four-day weekend to break me into work slowly.<br />
<br />
I am super excited to show you all around my new classroom! If you read my post last year about my classroom reveal, you will see a lot of similarities, but I think this is my BEST classroom design yet! I switched classrooms this year with a short move across the hallway, but I have a bigger room than before so I LOVE IT! I realize just how cramped my 22 third graders were at the end of last year, now that I see my little second graders moving around easily in our new room. So! Let the tour begin :)<br />

This is the view as you come into my room. I have a huge carpet and Smarboard in the front of my room. My desk area is in the corner. If it wasn't DARK outside when I finally finished my room and took these pictures, you would see a nice view out those windows :) </div>

This is my small group reading table and my jungle library! My tree has grown a little in size since last year, but it was pretty much the same process to assemble it. I have had a lot of people ask how to make it and I actually remembered to take pictures as I made it this year, so that will be my next blogpost. This post is already going to be a marathon without including it!<br />
<br />
Those READ letters were made by my mom and they are paper mache letters, painted and then fabric is decoupaged on top. I love them! They match my room theme perfectly!<br />

This is looking at the other side of my room across from the window wall. My word wall is going to go on those cabinets on the left.

Here is my teacher nook. I hate that there is that much space taken up in the room, but it is kind of dead space otherwise, it is between my reading table and my desk, and is too far over for the kids to sit and see the board. This is a close up of my "Teacher Shelf" from last year because I didn't take a close up this year, but it is pretty much the same:</div>

This is our calendar and center rotations. I am going to write the students' names on the white spaces next to the colored monkeys and then their rotations are in the row next to each. I have to do a very modified version of the Daily Five to make it work with our required center schedule and timing, so I am crossing my fingers that all goes smoothly! It is pretty straight forward once they get in the the groove of things. </div>

This is my student work space, because if I didn't designate a specific spot in the room for it, I would surely lose it and use it for something else! Never enough wall space in a classroom! I don't know about you, but I HATE tape loops- they are a pain to make, they ruin the students' work sometimes and I just vowed this year, I would avoid them at all costs. So, this board is entirely tape free! The little monkey faces that you see are hot glued to clothespins, which are then stuck to the wall with sticky tack. Now I just can clip the work up there and swap it out easily! Love! </div>

ALL MY MATH MANIPULATIVES!!!! Love me some organization! The bins are from the dollar store and the black bookcases are from Walmart (they are only like $17.00!). I am not ashamed to say that I have 8 (yes eight) bookshelves like this throughout my room. I really like shelves apparently! The labels on the bins are laminated and stuck on with velcro dots, so I can switch out the labels and manipulatives if I want. With the rate that I am switching grade levels each year, being able to change them is important! The cute little zebra frames around these labels are a freebie in my store so you can make your own!

More bookcases, dollar store bins, and labels!!! I love children's books and I love seeing my kiddos get excited when they find a book in my library. I get a lot of my books from garage sales, Goodwill, and scholastic book order points. I was also super lucky to work at the Penn State Education Library when I was in college and was given a HUGE amount of almost-new picture books from my supervisor Karla. It was a great jumpstart to my classroom library and I've kept it going every since!</div>

Students cubbies with dollar store bins. The table caddies on top of the cubbies are from Hobby Lobby. My other obsession with classroom decor this year was the "chalkboard look." So, when I found Hope King's classroom decor pack, I was in LOVE! Check it out {<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Classroom-Decor-Mega-Bundle-Brights-and-Stripes-Editable-728189" target="_blank">HERE</a>}. The table labels are part of that pack!

Frame: Michael's with a coupon! I took the glass out and laminated the subway art. I get nervous having anything glass in my room. I hot glued the ribbon decorations on it before I put the subway art in by just wrapping it around the sides of the frame. Did I mention I am also obsessed with gluing bows on EVERYTHING this year?

This is a little 'monkey-themed' behavior incentive I made with my clipart. I spend so much time making clipart, I sometimes forget to use it to make things for my own classroom! The students sit in four tables, so they earn banana points for good behavior, being ready first, or positive behaviors I see them doing while working cooperatively. The kids love it! One of my kiddos said yesterday, "Wow! Table Four has a bunch of bananas!.......(pauses and thinks hard) Bunch of bananas.... Hey! That's funny Miss Wallden, cause bananas come in a bunch, get it?" It was adorable and he was utterly shocked he had "made a funny." :) </div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V4SXDIeq1NY/Ug1JapbzrII/AAAAAAAACJU/6EoRL3OqNbc/s1600/TpT+Back+to+School+Sale+2013_Creative+Clips.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V4SXDIeq1NY/Ug1JapbzrII/AAAAAAAACJU/6EoRL3OqNbc/s640/TpT+Back+to+School+Sale+2013_Creative+Clips.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
This sale is gonna be H-U-G-E! Everything in my store will be 20% off- all sets, bundles, dollar deals, everything!!!! Even better, you can use the promo code: BTS13 to get an additional 10% off of that, so it comes out to be 28% off of the regular price of the product. This is the time to stock up for ANY season- not just back to school resources!<br />
<br />
Need some more convincing on how H-U-G-E this sale is!? Many of my clipart sets are regularly priced at $4.50, like my <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Monkey-Business-Creative-Clips-Digital-Clipart-813123" target="_blank">Monkey Business</a> and <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Superhero-KIDS-Creative-Clips-Digital-Clipart-784063" target="_blank">Superhero KIDS</a> sets. The price of those sets during the sale (28% off) comes out to $3.24!<br />

<br />
All my bundled sets will be on sale, too! I have already discounted these bundles 20-30% when I priced them originally, so you will get getting a H-U-G-E price cut during the sale. My <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Big-Border-MEGA-Bundle-Creative-Clips-Digital-Clipart-724335" target="_blank">Big Border Mega Bundle</a> has over $30.00 worth of border sets that I priced as a discounted bundle for $20.00.

So, you have a few days until the sale, so how should you prepare for this H-U-G-E event?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
1.) Go through your past TpT purchases and leave feedback!!! Many of you probably already know, but you earn credits for leaving feedback on your purchases which you can then use to buy more great TpT products. During the sale, you can apply your TpT credits AND the promo code, in addition to the sale prices. That's my kind of deal!<br />
<br />
2.) Do some pre-shopping and wish list some things! If you are like me, your wish list is already a mile long, so sometimes I am just shopping through my own wish list to see what I want to load into my cart :) <br />
<br />
3.) Snatch up my sale button from the top of this post, if you want, and promote your own store and fabulous items for the sale! If you click on the sale button, you can save it and post it on your blog, FB page or wherever you want to promote the sale :) No credit is necessary but appreciated :)<br />
<br />
**The prices that you will see in my store during the sale will reflect 20% off the original prices. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ADD THE PROMO CODE: BTS13 WHEN YOU CHECK OUT! I can't tell you how many times I have shopped during a TpT sale and in the excitement of purchasing, I forget the code during checkout. The promo code brings the total percent off to 28%.<br />
<br />
That's it folks! I have been waiting on pins and needles for this sale! Even though I seem to have done a lot of shopping already, I am anxious to scoop up some more resources for the upcoming months. Get while the gettin's good!Krista Walldenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05325983028161858293noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813513128588443807.post-29267521834164950972013-08-10T09:13:00.003-07:002013-08-10T09:13:56.804-07:00WINNERS ANNOUNCED!!!Hi everyone!!!

Well, I completely FORGET what that feels like because I have less than 3 weeks of summer left and I'm still running around crazy, only a quarter of the way done with my to-do list. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Good news is.... one thing that I desperately needed to get done was making a "Grab my Button" code to post on my blog page. Now this might seem like a simple task to some of you, however, it was one of those things that never seemed to get done for me. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I've had my blog button posted for a couple weeks now but forgot to post about my little Blog Button Contest. What better reason to throw in a chance to win a $20 dollar gift certificate to my store!?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here's the scoop:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1.) Copy and paste the html code for my blog button from the side bar of my blog and post it on your own blog page. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2.) Comment on this blog post with a link to your blog and let me know that you have added my button.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
3.) Wait patiently until August 10th :) On August 10th, I will randomly choose THREE numbers using a random number generator (because I'm old school and that is what I know how to you use) and will find the corresponding comments on this post to those numbers. If I draw your number, I will visit your blog and if you have my blog button for Creative Clips posted on your blog, you get a $20.00 gift certificate to shop at my store. Make sense? Three random numbers, three lucky winners!</div>
