February 2011

Background: this is a Pay It Forward. My friends helped me win this torch, but I already owned one like it. So now, you, my glass friends have your chance to win this brand new GTT Cricket. I will ship it when the contest is over. Please help me publicize this on forums, groups and anywhere else you can. The big winners are the kids who are helped by Beads of Courage. Thanks so much, Marcy Lamberson.

Diane Woodall - Hip, hip hooray!





Diane Woodall wanted all of us to see her super delicious beads that she is sending in ....AND...she has declined the raffle tickets because she already loves her Bobcat Torch.  So folks, even if you aren't asking for the raffle tickets, feel free to send me your photos as well to post.

Sending late Valentine Hugs to you all!
